Bench Freddie and Ronald for rest of game. Duvall already got into the game so we can be a defensive replacement to start hte next inning.

No matter what happens this year(and it’s been great). Next year should be pretty unreal.
damn albies
Biddle's probably up next. Are we brave enough to put in Allard and/or Sobotka later to save the bullpen?
Great inning. As much as I want touki to pitch. 100% the right call to go for the knock out there. Now we can pitch scrubs.
Except Biddle is in the ****ing game.

Yeah injuries happen, players struggle...you never know. BUT...if everything just breaks average and we of course add even more talent...we’re contenders. Not that we aren’t this year, but we are pretty big underdogs against some teams. I don’t think that’s the case next year.

why pitch biddle in an 8-1 game?

Acuna's OPS is now at .874... I remember someone saying he was about to go on a torrid streak. I think we are seeing what that looks like.
Allard should be tossing 3 innings of mop up work right now.

I can't tell, is Acuna good? This game has me giddy... my fav offensive and pitching prospects just killin' it!
Biddle was awful in his last outing, costing us the game.....already 2 on today with no outs.....dude is struggling
Get off my lawn!
We could see a jump next year...or things could go the other way. Markakis has played above his head, as has Camargo. We've been good at catcher. Newcomb/Folty...we've had several spots that have been better than expected. That could easily go the other way next year. You just never know.
I agree with you generally speaking, but I also would have thought the Cubs would just be demolishing people at this point. Baseball is weird.
Biddle threw a lot of stressful pitches Saturday. I would have liked to give him another day off if all possible. 8-1 should be safe enough to throw guys who don’t pitch out there.
