Well I’m here today. So let’s hope things go a bit better this time. 

Well, Joe is trying like hell to ruin the game for you. First, an idiotic suicide squeeze call with Javy up and no outs, and then he inexplicably lets Heyward hit against Miller with a runner in scoring position and lefty masher Almora still available.

I'll never understand Maddon's love for Happ. 

His D is really bad out in CF. At least he had been hitting the crap out of the ball lately. KB was the one who has looked really bad offensively last night. Really strange to see.

Yu to the DL with triceps tendinitis and will get an MRI today or tomorrow. Feel free to pucker your bungholes.

They need to put Chatwood in AAA.

Could have made it out of the first without giving up a run if Russell wouldn't have made such a lazy play. 

But yeah, it seems like he's walking 5 people a game. He really needs to figure out his control issues. Very concerning.

He was literally missing his spots by feet, not inches, at certain points last night.  That was the worst he's ever looked.

Even when he “calmed down” and got out of that bases loaded jam with back to back strike outs and then a gbo, he still nearly hit Longoria in the head with back to back pitches. And Willson set away on both of them. His command yesterday was some of the worst I have ever seen.

Heyward has been playing the best baseball of his Cub career since coming off the DL. Just had a 4 hit game, and he’s been mashing.

Batting .364 with a .404 OBP since coming off the DL. 

So happy he's on this run. Hope he finally has turned it around.

This hot streak of his probably earns him the right to start every day against RHPs. But he needs to ride the pine against LHPs.

As hot as Heyward has been, KB has been equally as cold. Obviously he will come out of it, but it’s amazing that we just swept the Mets in a 4 game series on the road with KB scuffling so badly.
