I’d never bet against my team but as soon as I saw Wicks was going to be the bulk guy I threw 100 on the over.

Bergman could have run hard all the way down and he might have beat that. Huge play in the game

Yeah I am a little annoyed at Wilson being the bulk guy after Wicks was reported to be. I’m gonna lose a pretty significant amount of money on brewers team total over thinking Wicks was gonna be the guy

He’s got an era over 16. Now all we can hope for is extra innings

 

[CycloneErik]

Nice inning going here.

 

[BigJCy]

His stats aren't bad but every time I've seen this Ashby pitch for the Brewers he has not impressed me.

 

[BigJCy]

Both teams have wasted chances with guys on 3rd and less than 2 outs.

I wish they'd left him in, for sure.

 

[FerShizzle]

Home run on the first pitch after this pitching change, right?

In listening to Counsell, sounds like Wicks was bulk guy if Cubs were losing by a lot early.

They DFA's Velasquez, will be curious if he ends up back in DSM or is gone. Thought he pitched OK yesterday. Better than anything Wicks has shown this year in Chicago.

That was an odd pinch hitting choice…

Shaw has to be hurt or something.

Agree. Unless Shaw is hurt, why Dean in that situation? Odd choice, Craig.

Velasquez been ok both times he has pitched. Both blow outs if I recall, still he's been fine.

 

[1UNI2ISU]

I really hope Shaw's back didn't flare up again. He's been real good lately

 

[BigJCy]

This Brewers pitcher lost the ol' command.

 

[FerShizzle]

sphincter clenched.

 

[NorthCyd]

Cubs bullpen activate!

 

[BigJCy]

Never f'ing easy with this squad.
