Lobaton needs to get more starts.

If he doesn't get the next Strasburg start then something is seriously wrong.

Williams has no clue how to manage a roster. When Ramos was hitting it was fine to keep trotting him out there but those times have passed. Ramos and Lobaton need a more reasonable split now.

Much like Desmond's range, Zimmerman's ability to elevate the ball has quickly disappeared.

Feels like Uggla hasn't done anything in weeks. He's due

GIDP coming.

plus how well the Cubs' defense plays in this one; if they can't get to ground balls Lester could be in for a shelling, but if they're solid on D it'll be a close one.

I will bring this up again.

Williams mentioned in an interview that he didn't think a pitcher/catcher match up is necessarily a good thing.

Missed that, thanks. I think he's wrong though. If Lobaton can get Strasburg to stop looking like H-Rod then do it, better than the crap he's been pulling.

Send the runners.

Not sure if I heard it on a pre-game chat or the Junkies radio show.

Worthless Uggla

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #186:** May 27, 2015, 09:12:10 PM »

Probably not a strike but that has been called for Lester most of the night.

RobDibblesGhost · « **Reply #187:** May 27, 2015, 09:12:11 PM »

Not a strike.

Matugi · « **Reply #188:** May 27, 2015, 09:12:13 PM »

Zero consistency to this zone.

Agreed.

Come on Tyler

PC · « **Reply #191:** May 27, 2015, 09:13:22 PM »

Lester has been terrible this inning and they've score 1 run. This offense is a mess.

Matugi · « **Reply #192:** May 27, 2015, 09:13:29 PM »

No idea why Lester is toying with the slurve when he's had the outside edge with the fastball all night.

PC · « **Reply #193:** May 27, 2015, 09:15:06 PM »

This team has had one well hit ball tonight, Desmond's double.

Optics · « **Reply #194:** May 27, 2015, 09:15:54 PM »

T Mo fighting at least

PC · « **Reply #195:** May 27, 2015, 09:16:11 PM »

He wants that outside edge on the two strikes pitches.

Would be nice if we could turn over the lineup here.

RobDibblesGhost · « **Reply #197:** May 27, 2015, 09:16:27 PM »

MLB can speed up games by limiting catcher visits to the mound. Sheesh.

mitlen · « **Reply #198:** May 27, 2015, 09:16:32 PM »

That's a lot of base runners for one run. We'll take it though.

How can you not get to 92 mph??????
