MLB: ***Official 2019 Chicago Cubs Season Thread***

[chuckd4735]

If you’re in the middle of a competitive window, don’t twirl your thumbs the entire offseason because you’re out of money and make Daniel Descalso your big offseason get.

Bote. Happ. Edwards. Caratini. All expendable for a somewhat reliable and consistent bullpen arm.

Wasn't our Bullpen pretty much Top 5 in MLB last year in most metrics all while missing our best relief pitcher for most the season?

Edwards had a bad game tonight. There's 160 games left. Let's cool down for now.

According to the post game show last night, we had one of the worst bullpens in the league the second half of the season.

If we had a top 5 bullpen last season, it’s because they had a lights out first half of the season.

This game is exactly why things have been terrible since Game 7

Quite being a drama queen, they've won 95 and 92 game since game 7.

So better Bullpen management is needed, not a roster over hall/addition. Our Bullpen is just fine, and will be better when Marrow returns.

Gonna be a long season if our pitching pulls this **** all year

Not to mention of the best closers in the game right now is still unsigned

Hamels got absolutely squeezed on both of the two guys before the grand slam. No excuse for giving up the homerun but should've been out of the inning twice before it got to that point

This team blows

Cubs are up 4-1: Silence
Cubs give up a grand slam: "This team blows"
Cubs go up 6-5: Silence

Look at the dude's post history. Every post is negative in some aspect. Would be sad to live that kind of life

Sign Kimbrel yesterday

 

[Die4Cy]

2019 Cubs Train has square wheels.

Front office is putting the pressure on Maddon but this pitching staff...woof.

 

[Shawker]

What the **** is wrong with this bullpen?? All you have to do is get 3 outs against one of the worst teams in the AL. If Theo and Jed don't go out and sign Kimbrel I'm going to be really disappointed. This bullpen has now cost the Cubs 2 of their first 3 games.

 

[CloneinWDSM]

Classic lol. No one could see this coming

 

[BigJCy]

Scored 28 runs in 3 games and lost 2 of them against a bad Rangers team. Woof

 

[Cyched]

54-108

 

[BigJCy]

Nice defense Cubs

 

[CycloneErik]

And a Heyward double play.

 

[CoKane]

Mark Zagunis should be investigated for throwing games.

Yeah, I'm not really understanding why he's getting so much time early on.
