    Well I hope Lance is going to be ready to pitch the 7-8th come playoff time because Rondon and McHugh aren’t ready.

    Hinch wanted to see if Rondon could work his way out of the jam... and he couldn’t.

    Why do you think Cubs didn't want him.

    Sucks that Rondon wasted 2 great plays by Jake. So basically his 2 outs could have been hits.

    Rondon worked his way out of the set up role.

    Now should be Smith, Pressly, Ozuna. For default 7,8,9 role

    Rondon has been terrible his last few outings and honestly Osuna has been average. Not too excited about that one two punch right now compared to other playoff teams

    Give Josh James some late inning work as well. Need some better arms in pressure situations.

    While it's easy to hate on Rondon right now, let's also not forget the offense once again had a ****-tastic game. One run total off LeBlanc?

    We are way too spoiled by ungodly pitching.

    Yes Rondon blew it bigtime tonight, but your win probability with 1 run and 3 hits in the MLB is extremely low and probably around 5-6%.

    Big Boy put all his weight into that Grand Slam. Nice short stroke.

    Stros can comeback though.

    You could see it coming...it's a shame AJ couldn't. If not for jake would have been in far more trouble. How you can sit and watch that and sit in the dugout is beyond me.

    Very true and good point ! We won’t be facing Leblanc type pitchers in the playoffs that’s for sure !
