NL Wild Card Game: Colorado Rockies @ Chicago Cubs - October 2, 2018 - 8:08 PM ET

What have the Cubs done that you dont like?

 

Electing to use Heyward as a pinch hitter with the bases juiced when a much better hitter was available off the bench, and starting the 8th inning with a pitcher who shouldn't even be on the roster.

[Boxcar]

Did A-Rod just call Nolan Arenado underrated?

 

I honestly just think he's just saying random words at this point.

 

Since Hawk retired, ARod is trying to get his catchphrase game on.

 

Hawk was definitely the best nickname giver in MLB history, though.

[P2F]

It's really pretty obvious that Vasgersian is rooting for the Rockies.

 

This is unsurprising to me. He just seems like he fits the narrative of someone who would love a good, old-fashioned upset/Cinderella story over a clearly better team rightfully winning.

What have the Cubs done that you dont like?

 

Pitching Randy Rosario in the 8th inning, pinch hitting with Jason Heyward instead of Schwarber with the bases loaded, taking out Schwarber in favour of Terrance Gore after finally PH with him later in the game. Maddon hasn't been good at all.

Can we start a Kickstarter to pay Joe Maddon not to manage? Good god, was he always this awful?

Lmao I love this post.

I think the general consensus is that he's too smart for his own good and that being labeled as a genius manager earlier in his Tampa days (which he kind of was to be fair) got to his head.

If you're Cole Hamels you're happy with the winning run on first base to face Trevor Story. ARod should really just stop.

"Didn't he also say _____ (forgot who) looks sexy" earlier?

[Captain Adama]

LMAO Bryant

[P2F]

Wow. That was a mental lapse if I've ever seen one.

[Orgfiller]

Throw to first bro. This has been such a poor game.

[Inklink]

Holy crap

[havok24]

What the f*** Bryant lmao

[Captain Adama]

Just please end this late term abortion.

[Inklink]

Oooh Bryant you lucky dog

[Orgfiller]

Buttholes everywhere in and around Chicago just simultaneously unclenched.

[P2F]

Just please end this late term abortion.

 

I hope tomorrow's game is better. Wildcard games are usually the ultimate in baseball excitement and this game is, uh, decidedly not.

Can we get a Kickstarter to get Buck to bring in Britton to the WC game? Oh wait, wrong year, wrong league.

[Orgfiller]

Wow imagine walking Baez of all people in a situation like this.

[Carlos Danger]

Oh Oh

[Orgfiller]

Oh look, an intentional walk following a sacrifice bunt. The great managing continues.

That being said, the GDT has been pretty good. Lots of knowledgeable posters in here and it's been mostly devoid of retardation, which is a pleasant surprise.

That's because the casuals apparently don't give a s*** about the playoffs and check out once the Jays are out.

That's because the casuals that post here aren't the ones that give a crap about other teams.

[Orgfiller]

That timeout is ******** but Oh can't really complain about what was likely going to be a ball.

[Abomination]

Arenado should have tried to throw the ball when Baez wrapped him up.

[Orgfiller]

Yeah hugging a player on a non-inning ending out seems like interference by someone, probably the runner.

[Boxcar]

Holy f*** this might be the worst playoff game I've ever seen.

 

Like, what in the sweetest f*** is Baez doing?

[Inklink]

random hug lmao
