I used to go to the dump across the street from that place a lot. I forgot what it was called, like Beanies or something.

I saw one too!

Anyone think they should bench Addison Russell?

Because earlier today, a certrain Elmhurstian called in to Carmen & Jurko with that very thought.

That's absolutely ridiculous.

Nah. Messes up the defense too much. Move him down in the order.

I heard him on the radio last week, and they laughed at everything he said.

I'm out.

We no longer have Starlin Castro as the "for sure" improvement, so we have to ride Addison Russell.

Of all the hitters, he is the one I'm least frustrated with. Rizzo and Zobrist need to start hitting before we look at Addison.

Hey Thank God Heyward was out there for his defense last night!!!!

I think he caught a pop-up BUT he caught that pop-up like no other man!


Bench that country cocksucker.

Why? They're all equally as culpable . Throw Heyward in the mix and you have 3 automatic outs . Russell has been shit for a month now. They all need to step up.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

Can't Baez play short?

But then Zobrist plays 2nd and he's terrible. Russell/Baez is magical middle of the diamond.

So how come Joe stopped that pitcher batting 8th shit?

With Arrieta hitting,I would bat Russell 9th.

I'd be OK with that.

Baez could play any position on the field, but having both him and Addy in the middle of the infield is freakin' gold.

*Edit: what Kirkwood already said.

He probably realized it wasn't too bright to give your worst hitter more at-bats than necessary.

I'd be okay if he batted Heyward 9th. I would literally rather have any starting pitcher the Cubs have (except MAYBE Lester) get more AB's than Heyward.

I'd bet he could play a decent catcher too.

Who is Dave Roberts?

Dumb Dr. Ken. Didn't you realize by walking Heyward and Coghlan that forced Maddon to pinch-hit for Chapman?!

/s

I picture ol Dave having invisible VR glasses on during the game, and he's watching back 2004 WS highlights...

Achieve and ascend to Shakira level concentration. You guys are slipping.

That may be an emotional thought but you have to know that it's really not correct. Travis Wood might be the best hitting pitcher in the game and his career OPS+ is about 70 points less than Heyward's.

All of this is a moot point if our 3 and 5 hitters continue at their 2 for 60 something pace.

6 for 60! Don't sell them short!

since the next 3 are in LA then soler and almora need to start in the outfield. blacks and Latins take the heat better than most whites, and whites take the cold better than most blacks and Latins. That's it, pure and simple. Nothing deeper than that.

It seems as if you've never been to Los Angeles in October.
