Velazquez has 4 HR's since being traded to KC. Nowhere to put him sadly, especially with Happs bloated contract. #WavesOfTalent.

i dont know why these guys keep pitching to the only guy on the other team that can hurt them. they keep getting burned!

Alonso vs the Mets, Roberts with the White Sox, and now Witt vs KC.

PITCH AROUND THESE GUYS! These teams have nobody else that can beat you!

The Royals home and away uniforms remain the best or at very least among the best in the league.

Offense really struggling vs these supposed below average starters recently. Let's see if they have some magic left over to pull this one out late.

Royals play hard for as bad as they are.

Carlos Hernandez went high high and higher to Bellinger then ate him up with off speed in the dirt.

Sutcliffe is fun for a .512 Cubs but no way if they ever get good

Reds and brewers win.

Cubs fall to 3rd place 3 out now. No longer have the wild card spot.

Now with Tucker Barnhart they're slowly but surely dumping a lot of Grandpa's beloved "journeymen " position players. I thought Tucker Barnhart was the pitching staff savior and would fix all Willson Contreras destroyed. But TB's era is 4.43 in '23. Not much better than WC in STL.

You love to make things up. No one looked at Barnhart in that light. He was a solid defensive catcher for a few years who could occasionally hit a little. He sucked and they got rid of him.

Barnhart was signed because they could not be sure that Amaya could be healthy enough for the workload. Amaya has proven that he was, they got PJ Higgins back from Arizona to stash at Iowa for the #3 catcher who can hit lefties reasonably well (and can play 1B if needed), and they couldn't find a buyer for Barnhart at the deadline to take on his 2024 player option. So vaya con dios...

Replying to that guy is a waste of time. He is negative no matter what the Cubs do. You would think the average Cubs fan would be happy that this team is exceeding expectations. But instead he likes to post the starters' August ERA at a time when the Cubs are winning series left and right.

Cubs come back with 2 in the first after Cubs keep pitching to Witt Jr

2-1 - with Hendricks on the mound they got to score a lot today

Royals already stole 3 bases already off Hendricks and we're not out of the 2nd yet.

sutcliffe is great analyzing Hendricks today.

why is he worry about a catcher trying to steal 2nd.

game should be tied, let's see if he can get this final out an salvage this inning.

guess who's up : witt jr.

WALK HIM MOFOS! - nope they're pitching to him. Even sutcliffe is like walk him

update - lucky mf's. seya had to make a circus catch for the out. this fucking team always playing w/ fire vs the only player on the other team that can do damage

Bad loss to a crappy team on Friday, but as usual, this team is resilient and takes care of business the rest of the series.

good outing by Hendricks.

get the series 2/3

Mil is up big, Reds losing.

Probably going to still be 3 out.

Got to stay around 2 or 3 out this week. The final week of August playing 3 vs Mil and 4 vs the reds. that will decide who will win the division.
