Lopez activated, Nicky Steaks sent to Schaumburg.

Ricky concedes this one. McCann nowhere to be seen. Bum on the mound. Bum in RF. Can McCann play RF? Why not, the other guy can't.

It's a little early, but Mazara does have bum written on his forehead. It's going to have to be platoon+ with him and Engel, with Engel getting starts against certain righties.

Encarnacion is the fly in the ointment that's fucking McCann. I said it when they signed the geezer. $12 mil wasted.

There's at least a chance that Lopez has one of his brilliant games.

sounds like Lopez may only go a few innings and then they turn it over to Gio

It’s also Matt Foster time. He hasn’t pitched since Wednesday.

enjoy getting shut down by hendricks

A chance like 1 in 10 or do you mean like 1 out of a million

_________________

Yes.

I think if Lopez can cover 9-12 outs while giving up two or fewer runs, that would have to be viewed as a pretty great start All Things Considered.

_________________

Wide plate for Hendricks

Are youn kidding me?

Is that Eric Gregg behind the plate?

If Lopez is going to benefit from a large strikes zone as well then all right. Hopefully it stays consistent that's all you can ask for.

So far, I am enjoying it.

Bullcrap. Lopez is not a bum whatsoever. Mazara is not a bum either. Grandal is a very good player also. Rickey isn't "conceding" anything.

Pitches piling up for Hendricks

The sooner you can get into that Cubs Bullpen the better

Staked with a lead, it is quite important for Lopez to keep the Cubs off the board the spinning.

His bat is waking up lately. All this being said, I wouldn't mind it if they re-sign McCann a bit. Right now, I'd say he is a top ten catcher in all of baseball.

No shit. Poor baby. Lopez is all over the place with his pitches.

Here is the Lopez you worry about.
