After losing 2 of 3 with him on the bench, league MVP Jason Heyward returns to the lineup tonight to shore up a team that's only been able to put up a 14-4 record for the month of August ... disgusting.

Cubs in the unusual position of paying on the salaries of both starting pitchers in tonight's game.

He should head on over to Brown's and get the combo!

Heyward gets two (2) hits tonight! Just you watch. At least one leaves the infield.

You really have strange baseball thoughts. Pitching fails horribly but not having an overpaid coddled defensive OF player sitting because he sucks makes no sense. Oh yes welcome back JHey. Missed ya.

#TheComeback

The results being a horrible batting average, on base pct. and slugging pct.? Are you predicting multiple hits based on "the other" big mistake Theo has made, pitching for the Padres tonight? Either way, I really doubt that happens.

He forgot which part of the Cubs' battery had the issue with throwing to bases.

I just hope Addy doesn't hit into a double play so Heyward can deliver the goods.

Just waiting for the right moment. Low Leverage Index in that at-bat.

Waiting for the right moment? That's what you're going with? He sucks as a hitter, especially when hitting with runners in scoring position. Should never have been signed.

No, you don't get it. I wanted them to sign Denard Span instead and he's black. Black had nothing to do with it. .260 12 HR's and Just over 60 RBI is what he averaged after last season. I don't care if he's a gold glove outfielder, you don't pay 184 million to a guy to play great defense.

91 OPS+ Span? HUGE upgrade I'm sure. And then there is no Fowler on the team.

"But then Zimmermann would have signed instead of Lackey"

Oh good. Then we would have hurt the offense and the starting pitching.

We've heard this all. You were wrong then. You are wrong now.
