    The Tigers' city connects are out. Javy looks like he works in an auto parts store here. He just needs a nametag.

    Congratulations to Detroit for landing an e-sports team.

    I’m at a Storm Chasers game with my dad….Jen Pawol is one of the umpires (she’s the crew chief). :techman:

    Friggin' PieRats 4b3.png walk in 6 Cubs runs in the 5th, then the Cubs' shitty bullpen gives the lead right back.

    Pirates look to have a couple of legit starting pitchers in Jared Jones and Paul Skenes. So which one will become a Yankee and which one will become a Dodger?

    It's past time for the Cubs to admit that Cool Kyle Hendricks is beyond cooked. He just doesn't have it anymore, and the Cubs can't keep wasting every fifth game with him starting.

    I'd say try him as a reliever for a few games, see if he's got enough for 1-2 innings at a time from the BP. We got BP troubles on top of hitting troubles. Not to mention Justin Steele's last 2 starts have been duds.......against the effin' Pierats.

    Shota Imanaga just threw another 7 inning gem, with zero run support.

    I just don't think Hendricks' stuff can work out of the pen. He's a soft tosser who relies on soft contact, and because he can't disguise his pitches anymore, batters can clearly tell exactly what's coming when he starts his delivery. He's just toast.

    Wasn't Paul Assenmacher a pretty soft thrower? Though maybe he had a better movement on his pitches than Hendricks does now.

    Sure, but he also last pitched 25 years ago. The game is played differently nowadays.

    Guys like Assenmacher and Jamie Moyer would get tarred and feathered in today's game.
