4/1. Cubs game 1

[Enscheff]

Cubs are just aggressive enough to bail Newk out of all his control issues.

It will be nice when the Braves get pitchers who can throw strikes.

Not sure if you should let Newcomb face Bryant.

Not sure if you should let Newcomb face Bryant.

Rather parsons?

 

[CyYoung31]

also as chip intelligently points out again: newcomb was 12-9. winning record = good pitcher

This is the kind of analysis you can’t get by watching EPSN.

 

[CyYoung31]

Rather parsons?

Yeah

 

[Five]

Newk throwing a gem right now.

No worries, mate..8^)

 

[Super]

Not sure if you should let Newcomb face Bryant.

think you really need to let newcomb log some innings if at all possible.

effectively wild

 

[UNCBlue012]

Newk is a weird ass pitcher and I don’t think I like him very much. I have zero faith in the guy.

Newk throwing a gem right now.

4 walks in 4 innings on 87 pitches is a gem?

We must be watching different games.

TOR for sure

casual fans watching epsn don’t appreciate analytics yet

I am thinking sarcasm.

#shortleash

well it’s a combo of short starts every game yes but also are the bullpen options any better? are we at all confident in that? idk, let the man roll

 

[msstate7]

off day tomorrow

#shortleash

Eh, snit will go with parsons, Luke, or tomlin. Rather newcomb

 

[Enscheff]

bet

Is anyone who isn’t proven to be completely unaccountable willing to enter into this bet?

 

[Julio3000]

i mean i’m not asking you to be super impressed, but he was decent last year. certainly not terrible

You are right. He is not terrible.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Donaldson looks fantastic tonight.
