IU Scott Posted June 2, 2023 Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 Another good outing for Green but only lasted 6 innings. 6IP, 2 hits, 1 run. The only two hits were in the 4th and one was a routine fly ball that Barrero lost in the lights for a double. The second one was a weak dongle just past the 1B. Score was tied 1-1 but Gibault just gave up a homer to the first batter he facedĀ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted June 2, 2023 Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 Well David Bell made a bone headed move tonight. Tied at 2 going to the bottom of the 8th and you bring in Herget and he promptly gave up 6 runs. No way you put a guy like that in a close game. Bullpen has been horrible this series giving up 16 runs in 8.2 innings. Starters only gave up 4 runs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has pitched in lower leverage parts of the game and has pitched alright but to put him in a tie game in Fenway is another thing. With the 3 batter rule you couldn't just take him out after the first inning. Edited June 2, 2023 by IU Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted June 3, 2023 Report Share Posted June 3, 2023 (edited) Reds lose 10-8 and left the bases loaded to end the game. After 4 innings they were down 10-3 but made a heck of a come back.Ā They still having trouble hitting with runners in scoring position and leaving runners on base. After winning 5 in a row and getting to 3 games out of first place. They nowĀ have lost 3 in a row and now are 5 games out.

Seeking6 Posted June 4, 2023 Report Share Posted June 4, 2023 Cubs players who have been seeing more time lately. Rios 2-28 with 16K's. Barnhart-10-64 with 24K's Mastrobuoni-8-50 with 16K's No clue why all 3 are even on the roster anymore let alone starting over guys like Morel, Wisdom...shoot even Velasquez, Amaya, and Madrigal at AAA are much better options. That lineup Ross sent out yesterday was a loss before the game even started. No clue what these numbers are telling us but Cubs are 2-8 on Saturday this year and 1-8 on Sunday.

Some of our best series wins (Rays, Dodgers, Rangers, Mariners,etc..) are against good teams. Otherwise though it's just hot garbage. Off the top of my head Ross bullpen management and lineups have probably accounted for 10 losses. There are pieces here but unless the Cubs buy the offseason we aren't going anywhere anytime soon.

Proud2BAHoosier Posted June 4, 2023 Report Share Posted June 4, 2023 Aaron Judge.... What can I say about the guy? After signing a massive off-season deal, he seems to be living up to it. If the guy isn't superman, I don't know who is. He leaping over outfield fences to rob homeruns, hitting homeruns of his own, and running through fences to make a catch. Simply unbelievable. Take a look at what he did against the Dodgers yesterday.... Ā 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
