Pretty sure I saw Garrett Mitchell in the dugout...who is going to go down or out??

 

EDIT: Maybe not. 

I assume Black will head back to Nashville when Mitchell is activated 

They might try to package Bauers with prospects closer to the trade deadline 

[HarryDoyle]

Ok, we need Blue Hawaii Elvis here.

[kevinisaname]

Too bad about the error or Rea could have gotten out of this inning. Now it's Elvis time. Please be good Elvis!

LOL, honestly forgot Black was on the roster.  That is probably the right call.

[yourout]

Now that's an unconventional double play

[CheezWizHed]

good morning Bellinger.  Looked mightly sleepy out there...

[82brewcrew82]

Cubs gonna Cub

[markedman5]

Baseball 

 

[HarryDoyle]

Gee. I wonder why the Cubs are in last place.

[folly412]

Bellinger using the Cubs fans' fly ball overexcitement as his base coach?  Pretty routine out to get doubled up on.

Kid is ready to break out in second half. Like a stud pick up at the deadline. 

He has been really good over the past month...and he is TWENTY....

Granted , it was AA, but this was about the time Chourio went scorched earth for about 6 weeks last season.

Yup as of now the development plan of letting him take his lumps for a while at the big league level seems to have been the correct path.  Vs the other option of going down for a bit then coming back, or having started down for a month or so to begin the year

[yourout]

Definitely catching some breaks in this game.

[RobertCrawley]

Someone tell that little cubs manager to sit back down.

Of course... we only ever know the results of one path (unless you are Dr. Strange).

I think quite a few people did... 😂

I wonder if CC will ever get his "Favre" moment...

[yourout]

Danger here.

Four games out of final wild card spot 

[yourout]

This needs to be Elvis's last hitter

[Bulldogboy]

Peguero speeding up.
