It looks like our scrubs vs the Cubbies scrub tonight. This is a test of two guys from the Theo Epstein school of GMing. It's nice to see Tucker playing his natural position for a change.

Not really. He's batting a buck 61. Shouldn't be playing at all. But, of course, I know what you meant.

Yes but before yesterday, he was hitting a buck 11. And he doubled his RBI total for the year. He's red hot.

I’m not really happy seeing Tucker or Evans in the lineup.
I want to see more Yoshi. He has the power we desperately need. But Sheltie seems to play him mainly against lefties. I don’t get it.

So odd looking at the Cubs lineup. I still can't believe they neutered a WS champion so quickly. It's as if the fans were told "here's to the next 109 year drought"

I guess they at least gave them a little chance for a couple years. Washington was even quicker.

Mario Mendoza looks at the Pirate's batting averages and crows about how he was a better hitter.
Cumulatively, pretty frightening to see so many struggling so badly.
