9/1... cubs game 2

[msstate7]

Really FF? Fastball at 93 center cut

[msstate7]

Snit, move Swanson up in the order. It's getting ridiculous

[nsacpi]

expecting a yuge game from Swanson

Lackey is a better choice haha

3-hit by john lackey while our hottest hitter is in the 8-hole

[msstate7]

Why stretch folty out? He's having his best start in a while (minus Ks)... let em go out feeling ok about himself

Not really doing ourselves any favors by winning these games. I dont want to screw with whats working with Swanson to try and win more games. I would much rather he stays hot hitting 8th and gets his stats back to close to respectable to finish the year on a high note.

If Swanson is that fragile, he'll be a bust for sure. If he can't handle hitting anywhere but 8th, then jeez...

Smoltz was so fragile he had to see a shrink.

Can't disagree, but if they took him out half the board would be screaming to let him work his way through the adversity.

[msstate7]

FO, will you please DFA brothers bc snit thinks he's Andrew miller?

[msstate7]

Maybe brothers is miller. Nice job

[msstate7]

FF ops is 1.011 now.

I want to see the kids do well the last month of the year. At the same time, I want to see Snitker make more managerial blunders with the bullpen and bench to cost him the job. I feel his September last year got him the job this year.

[chop2chip]

Bring on November, folks

Yup. His year to date stats are just likely who is he (nothing wrong with that) instead of the top 1 or 2 hitters in the league he was performing at to end last year and to start this year.

Folty needs to see one as well.

Snitker on third base: "“Starting Monday we’re going to have a bunch of people that we can maneuver around third base,” Snitker said. “We get Camargo back, Adonis comes back, Danny’s played there, so we have a lot of options."

I swear if Adonis Garcia or Danny Santana get so much as one start at third base. Good lord man.

He did well in the 2 spot last year. So I think he will prob bat 8 to keep his confidence up the rest of the year and move him up in the order next year

Good thing we have so many options for this playoff push
