They were just talking on the Dodgers/Braves telecast about the Cubs having 4 lefty starters. We saw 3 straight lefties from the Dodgers in that series.

 

Adding Moustakas makes us pretty left hand heavy. A lineup like tonight’s could be what we see during playoff series against either of those two teams.

As long as Braun takes advantage of the lefties.

Opposite field, what a stroke! Is Braun getting hot at the right time?

 

He's a big catch-22. When he gets hot, you want to play him a lot, but he's at his best when he's getting regular time off. Beautiful swing.

Short story, long —— I drove my dad 3+ hours to Miller Park to see the Crew take on the Braves on a Sunday afternoon - it was the last home game before the All-Star break. The Crew jumped all over the Braves pitching that day. Newcomb was the starter. Perez hit a 3 run jack to jumpstart the offense that day. Jesus hit 2 HR’s capped off one of the better homestands in recent memory.

 

Interesting that Newcomb and Perez are linked in the same thread today just as they were a in a memorable game a couple of weeks ago.

 

When Villar comes off the DL, do you see Saladino losing his roster spot? Unless something unexpected occurs (injury, another major trade) I don’t see both Saladino and Hernan on the roster together.

Boom!

 

Missed it because I’m watching the stupid no hitter

 

That’s silly. He wasn’t even pitching when it happened.

 

Had it on all afternoon, just lost track of time.

 

8 2/3

 

Chris Taylor breaks it up!

Man, a two-strike, two-out single through the hole between SS and 3B to break it up. That's rough. Taylor hit it hard, though, if that's any comfort to Newcomb.

 

High fastball, just didn’t get it up enough.
