OT: Other Sports 73

[ChiHawks10]

Agreed. To much going on for me with his motion. He just screams to me future closer or setup man. A good one.

Wasn't the same thing said about Sale?

 

[Mrfenn92]

Wasn't the same thing said about Sale?

Yes

 

[ChiHawks10]

Yes

And that's who he has been compared to, also.

I'll take another Sale for the next 5-7 years.

4 sure

He'll never be Sale. I'll bet the house on that but if he becomes even half of what Sale was, you take that all day and run.

OH MY GOD MAZARA FINALLY HITS A HOMERUN.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

His Twins were pain in ass for years

Hope all is well for Gardy going forward

Anyone concerned about Robert...so far September (16games played) he has only 1hr and 6TBI and a .103 BA(the worst in baseball ofcany player in September)...notceven hitting the ball deep for outs...how coukd do much talent get this far off the rails...he has list his confidence at the plate and looks totally confused now.. ...slump? This seems more than just a slump ....hardc o understand this or how to fix it.


Given that Encarcion also is not producing enough and is pretty much an automatic out and given that Moncada seems stuck on 5 Homer's and his battingvaveragevwell below expectation and he looks "off" from what he is expected to be , tgese major concerns alk add up to deep holes in tgenkineup..

Mazzara was another hole but finally hit his 1st honor last night and hopefully this gets him going to where he needs to be ...bit I am skeptical.

Robert is going through what most young players go through at some point. He does look completely overmatched right now. It is what it is. It's part of his growth and he will eventually be fine.

For the lineup, yeah, probably close to half the guys are 'off' right now. They either get hot or the postseason won't last long. We'll see. I'm excited.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

I am more concerned that his D has gone down hill alongside his bat

I figured a slump was inevitable but he has been putrid in field these past two weeks with several horrific fielding miscues

 

[clydesdale line]

Anthony Davis gonna carry LeBron to a title. Dude has been amazing.

 

[HeisenBaez]

My goal for the Cubs against the Pirates is to do better than 2R and 12 hits they collected against the Twins. I really wish somebody within the Cubs organization would give hitting lessons to the Cubs hitters because clearly they don't know what that big wooden stick is used for.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Encarnacion blows

Bases loaded and he holds back on swinging at first pitch hanging over middle of plate then swings at junk on 2nd pitch to end inning

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Dunning is trash today

Lead off single throwing fastball down middle of plate , 2nd single throwing fastball down middle of plate, goes to 3-1 count with Ramirez then throws fastball down middle sent out of park

3-0 Indians

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Dunning nearly gives up another HR throwing a hanging changeup

Indian hits it off CF wall for double

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Grandal drops play at plate on good throw by Mazara (Would have been easy out)

4-0 Indians and now 2 men on

They are hitting everything Dunning is throwing today

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Eloy just got hurt running to first ,,, Ugh

In pain and discomfort while limping

Take him out and be safe,, Why the f*** are you letting him stay in? Stop pointing to 2nd and take him out Ricky

 

[ChiHawks10]

Seems like the Sox offense all went cold at once here... hopefully they turn it around before the POs start.

And for some reason both our catchers have suddenly become atrocious at basics of position

 

[ChiHawks10]

A couple absolutely awful calls to end that game...

 

[TLEH]

Baez is terrible to watch bat

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Dig it.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Very nice

 

[Kaners Bald Spot]

Dig it.

Gives me an excuse to start watching the NBA again.

Given how hard it's going to be to get fans in indoor venues, the NBA might be all we have for winter sports in 2021.

Apparently Donovan had offers for "better jobs" so if anything it's an endorsement of the Bulls young talent.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Shocking positive news for Bulls

Such a rare thing
