EAT SHIT CUBES
Votto just went oppo and was pretty much choked up halfway up the bat kek
God is merciful
I bet that Lester is feigning injury to take himself out of the game and stop this embarrassment
>>77674156
JUST
Somebody give Lelster the crown
>Lester pulling himself out
Hope he's not hurt.
Either way, this inning is just a terrible outing not just for Lester, but the Cubs defense as a whole, plus a lot of bad luck. First they play deep and it's a lot of soft contact. Then they play shallow and suddenly the Reds get hard contact going for the wall.
At least it's not a 10 runs in the first episode. Still perfectly possible to comeback from if the bullpen can hold and the Cubs can string together some good innings against the Resd's pitching.
And it's only fitting the inning would end on a Resd fuck up at home plate.
Votto has a career OPS of .908...
...Against left handed pitchers.
>>77674309
not to justify Lester's whole performance that inning, but this strike zone is also retarded
HAPPED
shutout broken, 8 more runs to go
HAPP
We no longer shutout.
>>77674362
What the fuck is up with Bozzio this season though? Seems like he can't fix anything this season
Bryant sends one Waveland, Rizzo with a double.
There's still some life in the Cubs.

I'm not /pol/. Calling Pepe a neo-nazi hate symbol is fucking retarded, regardless of your political beliefs.

Don't blow this Reaper, yes the strike zone is shit. But keep it together for just one inning.

We should have kept Monty in for another inning.

BOTH OF YOU LEAVE
Why do we keep Grimm? He blows just about every single game he enters.
>This fucking Ump
Even Turner thought it was an out and was walking back to the dugout.
>>77675528
You must be trolling
>>77675598
Grimm got demoted back to AAA after Wilson was brought in (He's been worse than Grimm.) But was brought back up when Koji Uehara was put on the DL. Consistent bullpen pitching is extremely hard to come by since if you're that good, you almost always become a starter. Also, Grimm is probably middle of the road when it comes to relief pitchers.
9 outs to get 2 more runs. Perfectly possible. Especially with the wind blowing out.

kys
>>77675401
He did a hard slide into first to beat the throw and just laid there for a bit before just sitting up and not moving for a long time and they went to commercial break before he got up. But the fact the fact that Baez is batting right now means he's fine.
>1 run game again.
>JUSTin Wilson
>Justin Wilson
>Allowed runs in 5 of his 6 appearances for the Cubs

Theo wanted this guy to become our closer?
I just don't understand what they saw in Wilson. He's fucking awful, the Tigers are probably laughing their asses off.
>>77675991
He's got what it takes to be a solid closer. The problem is the command issues you're clearly seeing, he should be dropped to AAA, but there's no one in the minors who are good enough to bring up to replace both Wilson and Grimm. But if Wilson still has terrible outings, he might be the one to get demoted when Uehara comes off the DL.
>Baez almost turning a diving knock down into a crazy double play.
Still impressive he had the awareness to get the out of second. But we're still down by 2 again.
If a reliever named Justin comes to pitch for the Cubs, bad things follow.
>>77676037
What about zastryzny?
>sitting at work
>friend texts and asks if I'm watching the cubes because it's a great game
>open live updater
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON
This is a great umpball game
I hope Rondon dies.
>>77676065
>Zastryzny
He's set up to be a multi inning reliever like Monty. So, while it's possible to bring him up, there's no telling if he'd fair as well especially since he wan't that hot in his one outing he had for the Cubs this year.
>This garbage strike zone
Ump has it out for the Cubs
>Beaning a base runner in head
Not as funny as that Tardinal who got hit 3 times while rounding the bases, but still fun to watch.
>>77675922
Closer, no, relief pitcher, yes.
>>77676171
Cubs wanted Wilson to be the closer if they decided not to pay to keep Davis after this year and Rondon continues to be mediocre. At this rate, they might pay to keep Davis. Which is what I'd want.
>Last time Cubs scored double digits and lost was in 2006
>The score was also 10-13
Christ.
Fuck these piece of shit umps, fuck Rondon, fuck Grimm, fuck everyone.
>>77675347
oops
>>77676368
And fuck Wilson the most of all.
Lester, early defensive miscues, and the bullpen minus Monty blew it.
But we should really blame the Umps and the frog posting Jinxfag.
>>77676391
Addendum. Duensing did well with the hand he was given in allowing only one inherited runner to score.
>>77676391
>Lester gives up 9 runs in the 2nd inning
Those darn relief pitchers
FUCK YOU THEO I told you to trade rizzo for relief pitchers and a closer. HOW LONG MUST YOU CONTINUE TO BE A FUKKEN FAGGOT.
