Hayward scares me here.

 

 

Rodney is reminding me of Julio

 

 

I know it benefitted us but the strike calling this series has sucked.

 

 

houdini

 

 

HE DID IT

 

 

That was exciting 

 

 

That could have been disastrous. Instead it just sucked a bit.

 

 

bunting with your cleanup hitter... lol

Maddon is pretty stupid at times, trying to be unorthodox.

 

 

 

 

Zobrist hits gbs at a 50% rate so actually pretty smart move by Joe 

 

 

Gotta change my underwear, shit myself that inning

He did it cause of zobrist gb rate

 

 

I smell regression

No that was me, had taco bell for lunch, sorry.

nope that was a dumb ass play to call bunting with a cleanup hitter.

 

especially with an erratic pitcher.

Unless he bunts foul of course then you'd say it was dumb

You're thinking about lineup construction very differently than Joe. Zobrist is batting 4th but clearly not a clean up hitter. Joe played the odds there. It was a smart move. I'd imagine Joe would call lots of hit and runs when Prado bats with a guy on

 

 

The bunting thing was weird but the Cubs are good enough/talented enough to get away with weird things like that. If a losing teams manager tries that they get roasted. Joe Maddon does it with this talented club and he's "unorthodox."

Or he'd bat Prado lead-off so he could hit into less double plays.

The 2 strike thing was pretty brave but it doesn't change the gb rate thesis

I'd love if he switched Prado and dee

 

 

I wish we were a 95+ win team so that Mattingly's stupid moves can be called "unorthodox"

Dumb with two strikes. Period. You dont give up outs.

Sure, I wouldn't mind being 95-12 right now.

Mattingly does everything by the 1985 book

I meant by the end of the season you fuckin dildo.
