The reporter asked him if that's a play he usually makes. What he was really asking him so very delicately was "Why the hell was Sogard in the starting lineup at shortstop?"
-
11-1 against division cellar dwellers and 5-10 against everyone else. The very definition of medioctity.
-
CC in his presser is defending Sogard. Unbelievable. He also admits these are going to be low scoring games in this weather but yet keeps Arcia on the bench in favor of a defensive liability in Sogard.
-
Umpire at home was terrible today, but he was terrible both ways. Nothing he did cost us the game, Sogard booting a ball for a run and our best hitters not coming away with more than 1 run in the 7th with a big inning chance is what cost us the game. He was not equally terrible against both sides. The ratio of botched pitches was like 5 to 1 in the Cubs favor. And he probably intentionally called a couple the Cubs way to try and even it out a bit... The game absolutely could have gone differently if Heyward doesn't get walked on 4 straight strikes, or if certain counts were different. That slight edge the Cubs received from the umpires could have been the difference in the game... Sorry, but you're the only one here who has that opinion.

As good as Stearns is, and I think he is.. It amazes me he fell into the trap of resigning Sogard to a major league deal after last year. He had a crazy couple week run that was as flukey as flukey gets. He has no business being on a major league roster. No offense to the guy, but he just doesn't. Yeah, I think Stearns fell into the trap of thinking this team is better than they really are with an overachieving 2017 season. Year two of a rebuilding process almost never results in 86 wins. That's probably where you should be year three.Instead he went out and got Cain and Yelich thinking he'd be putting the finishing touches on a championship caliber team.

Good teams find a way to win these games against real competition. And I didn't see anyone say we suck. Someone else and I said they were average, and they are.
-
Oh we all know that, but he should NEVER see another start at shortstop for the rest of his life. These low scoring games are the ones you want to have your best defensive players in.
-
The Brewers come crashing down to reality after beating up on the tomato cans of baseball. Once they have to play real teams like the Cubs, they show they're just an average team that will miss the playoffs again.
-
And there's the cherry on top for Sogard.
-
I agree. I can't for the life of me figure out why Phillips didn't make the final roster. I know they were congested in the outfield but he provides much more than Sogard and Perez do.
-
And now Drake comes in. Please stop trying to put lipstick on that pig, Rock.
-
This series is proving that you can't play the Reds, Marlins and Royals every day.
-
Three can of corn pop flys. They couldn't have made it easier for the Cubs. And now the bottom of the order coming up in the ninth. This one's all but over.
-
How many more starts is CC going to give Sogard before he banishes him to the bench? If you're not going to hit worth a damn you better make those routine plays on defense.
-
That's why that one run felt like a blown opportunity. They give up the lead and it's unlikely they score again. If Arcia's in the game it's just another scoreless inning for the Cubs.
-
Good thing Sogard bobbled that otherwise it looked like he would've thrown that in the ninth row.
-
It's tied, but it just feels like a blown opportunity.
-
Yelich just missed that one.
-
Like I said before, the home plate umpire is someone named Stu Scheurwater. Never heard of him before today.
-
If the Brewers can't score in an inning where Sogard draws a leadoff four pitch walk, I'm turning off the game.
-
Not only did he strike out on a check swing, but a weak check swing at that. It's as if he was trying to K.
-
[sarcasm]Great AB, Perez.[/sarcasm]
-
5IP - 2R - 5H - 1BB - 3K But he sucks. You actually undersold him! Great. That'll gave CC the ammo to say "I told you so" and give him three more starts of craptastic pitching.
-
It's a shame because he was one of my favorite Brewers coming into the year, but so far he has seriously regressed this year. Hopefully he'll turn it around soon on offense, but he'll never be good with the glove. Probably belongs in the AL.
-
The Cubs are making it easy for Suter this inning.
