So what happens if you run out of mound visits and you try to visit again? Will Bruce Dreckman run out and try to physically tackle him?
-
5 innings. It's been 5 innings since the end of his last really bad stretch. I like Peralta a lot. When he's right, he can be as good as anyone in that pen. But he looked like he was emerging as a late inning option in July for a stretch and then regressed very badly to the point where we had to send him back down. He's starting to put it together again, but let's give it some time. Sure thing. I admit, there’s still a couple of butterflies in the gut when Freddy comes in. But, he seems different now, like something clicked for him in AAA, cause he’s been unreal since the call-up. I'm definitely excited about the possibility of having all of Hader, Peralta, and Pomeranz all clicking this time of year.
-
Are people really calling him terrible? Brewcrewin07 popped into the game thread yesterday for the first time in a month just to tell us how terrible Grisham is, and then bailed.
-
Great piece of hitting by the "terrible" Trent Grisham.

Why do all the Padre pitchers have great stuff but horrible numbers?
-
Too bad that wasn't Matt Garza fielding that little chopper from Braun. Ball would have wound up in the 16th row.
-
I really hope Counsell isn't making decisions off one AB sample sizes. He also had a bomb off RHP Lyles last AB. Hosmer has a .635 OPS vs lefties this year and. 666 for his career. I'm glad it worked out, though.
-
Because it takes a little time for Peralta to get warm....... It's really not that hard to buy time.
-
Lyles is pissed. Bro, they already know you can't throw a curve over and Hosmer smoked you last time. Sorry. In fact I'm not sure why they didn't get a LHP up.
-
He's completely lost it. Why is he still out there?
-
May have to go get Lyles. He's losing it fast.
-
This umpire is a straight up trash can.
-
Bill Schroeder debating if in an appeal situation a runner should just take off running or wait for the appeal and hope to not be called out. Ummm. I would vote run, right Rock? You know you can go back if they end up calling it a ball, right?
-
Clutch strikeout by Perez. I was wondering how long he was just going to stand there.
-
Why is that outside corner expanded for Hiura but wasn't even there on the 3-2 pitch to Garcia?
-
I was going to say, everything I've heard about Kelly is high ceiling, low floor. Small yes. High floor, low ceiling.
-
Very well played by Garrett. Which probably fired up Schwarber even more. Everyone is in the Cubs' heads these days.
-
From what I heard it was 100% a judgment call. Right or wrong there was no reversing it once it was made.
-
You just have to find the right barely authorized words to express it. Like, "Kyle Schwarber was pissing and moaning about Garrett's reaction. If he doesn't like it, maybe he shouldn't act like such a damn diva every time he hits a HR. Isn't Kyle Schwarber just an ass?"
-
Thanks to the Reds, it wasn't bad news on all fronts today.

Been a really rough homestand for Grandal and I have to worry how fatigued he is right now. I wonder the same with Grisham as he has never had a baseball schedule this deep into the season. I don't expect Grisham in the lineup tomorrow and I'm also anticipating a Grandal day off, Pina returns and Austin at 1st. I thought it was really odd to sit Braun and Cain together tonight. Feels like we could do a better job spreading off days out. I don’t like taking vets out of the lineup like that. I think it was two-fold thinking. Got a really tough RHP on the mound, with big career platoon splits. Also definitely planning on starting both Braun and Cain against the LHP tomorrow in the day game. I did not have any issue with the lineup but obviously they did not get the job done. We've talked at length about the oversaturation of lefties in this lineup but with the Yelich injury that has changed our outlook vs RHP quite a bit. Grisham is still finding his way and obviously Shaw has had a disastrous season so the only reliable lefty bat you're really left with is Moose.

Problem with rooting for the Cubs is that their other 3 games are against the woeful Pirates and you're likely not getting any help there. Your best chance for the division is something like 4-3 in favor of the Cubs in their remaining games against the Cardinals. Even if that happens if you don't get help from the Pirates you need to go at least 8-2 in your last 10 either to win outright or just to even tie depending on how they finish with the Reds tonight. And even THEN you still need at least 1 Cardinal loss in Arizona to tie them, 2 to win outright. Possible? Sure, but that's a whole lot of dominos to have to fall our way. The WC has much more mathematically friendly scenarios. We've been on a tear, but even just asking us for another .800 stretch these last 10 games is asking a lot.
-
They weren't going to win out. You know that. You're not wrong, but neither is he. 2 GB with 11 to play is just a lot different place to be than 3 GB with 10 to play. It's not impossible, but tough ask. Cardinals are a very good team. Them beating Scherzer was kind of the tough blow today. You go into today liking the chances to gain ground and end up dropping one instead. We can beat the Nats in a 1 game, as the Cardinals showed today Scherzer can be beat.
