Diamondbacks vs Cubs series thread

For the life of me I can't figure out why any pitcher would pitch to Goldy... There is literally no one behind him in the order that should be even remotely be feared. Just pitch around him in every at bat. Hope he swings at a bunch of bad pitches and if the worst case is you walk him, big deal. It's not like he'll eventually come around to score...

That's because Goldschmidt sucks, too.

Don't forget Didi...

Don't forget Didi...

Him especially. And his name is outright appalling. Who the hell names their kid "Didi?"

Ugh

Made worse by the annoying way Stevie B pronounces his last name! Ugghhh...

A split against the Cubs was not the plan, however, we desperately needed the win tonight.
Miley looked solid and Zeegs is stepping up as our only legit closer.
Nieves continues to provide some pop in place of Miggy. Eaton is a real force - his speed and aggression are true game changers. Kubel still blows enormous chunks. Gibby sitting Hill the past few days seemed to pay dividends as Aaron crushed the ball all night tonight.
I think Goldy can use a rest - though he won't get one. He looks mentally fatigued at the plate.
Prado is really swinging the bat so much better than he has at any other point in the season.
Parra remains sub-Parra...
We still need a legit bat in our outfield... Still need more consistency from our starting pitching - Kennedy is having a horrendous season. Skaggs is still young and learning which brings inconsistency. Cahill is on his way back (I know... So what...). We need another legit starter...

Back spasms??

Perhaps a DL stint is in the cards

Probably threw his back out with those 3 AWFUL swings after a 3-0 count a few nights ago.

Didi is a family nickname.

His real name is Mariekson Julius Gregorius.
