      If the pattern holds, his next homer will come in the 6th inning and be about 117 MPH.
      The one he hit the other day was 118 so its in his range

        This was Kyle Hendricks' 154th career start for the Cubs. And also his worst. His ERA jumped 0.42 points tonight.

              I really think the key for Atlanta is Ozzie. Their offense really explodes when is he is hot.

                      Our new bullpen sucks more than our old bullpen.

                        Why so we even go to the bullpen? It really makes this season suck because it doesn’t matter if we get into the playoffs, this bullpen will blow it. I hate this unit so much...

                          Didn't catch the game. Why was Soroka pulled after just 82 pitches? Looks like he was cruising.

                          How is this bullpen just as bad/worse than the old one?

                            Because Snitker continues to think he has the 2015 Royals bullpen. Absolutely no reason that Soroka was pulled...purely incompetent garbage is what it is.

                              Our bullpen so far tonight...2+ IP, 10 hits, 6 runs. That.is.awful.

                              ...and meltdown complete. I’d like to blame the players, but they’ve been doing this all year. At some point it’s on Snitker for continuing to watch them fail.

                                I don't think the Braves can currently win a single game in the NLDS. Not with this disaster of a bullpen.
