Boy, this offense sure would look great with one more starting caliber OF.  It's already damn good.

Or if Bryant would get his SLG% above .420.

So how do you attack Baez at this point?  He's hitting more oppo home runs than to left.  He's doing tremendous damage on bad pitches, balls way out of the strike zone (like his HR yesterday).

Goldschmidt is the one that is likely to kill us today.

I don't give a dam how Contreras frames pitches.  He is an outstanding defensive catcher.

If Willy starts hitting home runs the other way, watch out.

Funny how the reports were that the players did not like Chili Davis because he tried to get them to hit outside pitches to the opposite field.  Now that Davis has been fired, the Cubs are hitting outside pitches to the opposite field for homers as I never remember in previous years.

First and third with one out turns into man on first with two down.

Very odd choice by Carpenter there.

Dave, I think the Chili thing is that he de-emphasized swinging for power in favor of "getting hits".  Those two things are not mutually exclusive.

Zobrist reminding Carpenter that he's the OG.
