Wow, Peavy hit 93 on that fastball

Bryant says 'I got your ROY right here, Duffy'

It'll be close

I am not sure he even represents the Cubs in the race this year.

Duffy's gone through them all lately. Piss-cotty from Saint Louis, Bryant/Schwarber, Kang, soon PEDerson (though it looks like he's lost his job, sorry @calsnowskier he can OBP all he wants but he can't make contact). Great race this year.

 

[LHG]

So if Oxy does, in fact, come back tomorrow, what is the corresponding move?

Option JCP?

DFA Maxwell?

DL Cain?

My guess - JCP gets optioned.
He'll be back in a week.

I have not been singing his ROY praises in weeks. I have been all on board the Duff-Choo-Choo for a while now.

Yeah, no point losing Maxwell, unless they plan to bring up Williamson. Then they could DFA him to make room, or 60-day Cain.

Just wait until the next injury that happens tonight.

KT, ya gotta protect with 2 strikes

If he is optioned, he would need to wait at least 10 days to come back. He would not be eligible to come back until the 6th.

I always laugh when people waste $10 beers and $10 garlic fries to get a ball. I'm sure AT&T Park loves it too. That was a funny sight though.

Does that still apply when the rosters expand in September? I could be wrong, but I thought I've seen teams send a guy down on the 30th of August and call them back up on September 1st or 2nd.

I think that only occurs with injury. I'll look it up.

Belt is so good at first

How good is he?

If the DL is used, then all bets are off. But if not, I am pretty sure it still applies.

Tz is missing a hell of a game.

Tz is missing a hell of a game.

And his type too, well pitched

Are you saying if that was you you'd just get out of the way with your beer and fries?
