IU Scott Posted July 21 Report Share Posted July 21 I am trying to figure out David Bell's strategy. In the 7th he brought in LHP Moll with two outs and the go ahead runner on 3rd. He gets out of the inning. In tbe 8th inning for some reason didn't bring Moll back in but brought another LHP in Wilson. Moll has a 2.70 era and Wilson has a 4.65 era. Wilson has st gave up the the go ahead run in the 8th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think there’s any strategy. I think it’s just simply a guessing game because what they have for a bullpen is a bunch of really bad pitchers. So, they guess.

Moll has been really good so why not bring him back in for the 8th inning 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted July 21 Report Share Posted July 21 I wasn't watching or listening but I guess Bell made another bone headed move. They had a runner on 3rd and two outs and the game tied. We had a LHP in and they had a right handed hitter up and the guy on deck was a left handed hitter. Instead of walking the RHH to face the lefty he pitched to the right and gave up the winning hit.

IU Scott Posted July 21 Report Share Posted July 21 I am starting to think that Bell is trying to tank because of his usage of the bullpen. He bring in Wilson with two on and two out and gave up a 3 run homer. That is two days in a row he was part of a bullpen collapse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bronkonagurski Posted July 22 Report Share Posted July 22 The Cubs felt generous today and decided to let the Reds have another turn at last place. 😎 Nice to avoid the brooms, but man losing series to teams ahead of the Cubs in the standings isn't getting them anywhere and the offensive struggles make the games so difficult to watch. 4 runs in a 3 game series, lucky to get out with a win. In the post-game presser Craig Counsell actually displayed a pulse and gave Jesse Rogers the business a bit over a question he took issue with. Most fired up he has been since inking his deal? Brew Crew coming to town now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brew Crew coming to town now. My buddies and I were 8 rows behind home plate and there were 2-3 early calls that were so bad.....after Friday's zone....we and about 100 of us were yelling to Counsell to finally, once stand up for his guys. Glad to see a win but we needed to go 7-3 or 8-2 for these first 10 to still have a chance. Not likely now. Taillon should be a Yankee, Red Sox or Dodger by his next start.....and our offense still can't hit. Otherwise fun time at the Friendly Confines but Bears season can't get here soon enough. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
