Miguel Amaya's Error Leads to Jackson Chourio's Grand Slam | Breakdown

[@SetupManCubs]

Here are 13 stats that will blow your mind about the Cubs' miserable offense: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gIqoppZsntCoj9Esi=7maBZ7fVzq5Cnfbr

[@smokin19861]

That GS was uncatchable. You whining about it isn't going to change it.

[@parsnip2699]

Dread, Misery, and Despair brought to you by the ever apathetic Clownsell. Ty, Ty Cubs for taking him away from my Brewers.

[@carloschristanio4709]

I saw more fire from old joe during the debate than Mr. 40 mill

[@Nene-GoCubs]

Amaya needs to go back to AAA. He was only supposed to replace Gnomes while he was on the IL. This team is beyond repairable. Jed needs to stop shopping at the Goodwill for players and get some players that actually knows how to play. I never thought this team would be this bad. Ridiculous

[@SetupManCubs]

Yes, unfortunately we don’t have any other MLB ready catchers

[@flatusexpellus1779]

​@@SetupManCubs It has seemed that bec the Cub brass have been rushing prospects the last 2 years, that some guys aren't developing properly and then they're stuck w no options... instead of signing the right people to cover the field and then letting the very young players push the door open when they're truly ready...

[@flatusexpellus1779]

Easier said then done, but this is not working

[@jojayjo9712]

Didn’t Amaya skip AAA and went right into the big leagues?

[@flatusexpellus1779]

Amaya was really injuried and worked very hard to physically come back, but he didn't play very much at the higher levels

[@rtreno]

I love that you go through the extra effort of including audio/visual. Great job! Thanks!

[@SetupManCubs]

My pleasure!

[@everetttauscher8377]

That was an optical illusion. At first I thought Happ had caught it.

[@Higs8091]

4th time already this season; Amaya is not an MLB catcher!

[@ChrisWM901]

Amaya needs to get cut by the Cubs, dude is awful and I don’t like catchers who are awful, DFA AMAYA

[@ttanne7838]

What will Amaya look like in 2 or 3 years? Just a Question.

[@boxwi]

You guys are getting like 0.5 war less than where you should be for every position player and making bonehead mistakes. Thats on Counsell

[@kencummings953]

Impossible to tell how close Happ was from that angle. Need a side view. It might have been six-eight feet past his glove.

[@fredpaddon8979]

Thanx for taking Counsel off our hands. Pat Murphy is NL mgr of the year!

[@johnb4905]

Just shows how much a manager matters over a season. The Brewers were going to over pay him but the Cubs saved us from that.

[@BigLar56321]

Excellent analysis! Tell it like it is. Weak and bad efforts all over the field.

[@gamingwithjason7723]

There is no accountability, no fundamentals, no heart

[@corymcintosh534]

As a brewers fan I love watching cubs fan cry...hell I love listening to any sports station from the shitty city after you fibs lose

[@c-dublife]

ditto. I would like to say, I would sit next to a cubs fan over a cards fan any day. cardinal fans are trash.

[@Dysfunctional_Daisy]

Jackson Chourio > PCA

[@jjbeerj]

I don't think that's ever been in question.

[@scout805]

At the game last night, it was a wtf happened moment, but the ump pointed at the catcher and made it clear. Then of course the Crew made em pay BIGTIME!

[@jrm2383]

There’s a few feet of depth at the wall. Don’t think he could’ve caught it

[@gamingwithjason7723]

We suck

[@cambium0]

1-2 you've got two pitches to play with. Why do *that*? Try some kind of breaking ball that grazes the zone or a high fastball. Not a meatball like that.

[@yogistanu55]

Cubs are a Dumpster Fire. Bellinger...DUH, Amaya gets his 4th CI call WOW, Tailon...take that glove and toss it...then the 1-2 Meatball for the Salami. The Bullpen is in shambles, Injured SP, Guys aren't hitting their weight....and how Bout the Boy Wonder Manager. Brewers are just making this look way too easy. Murphy is a damn good manager and with 77 games left to play the Cubs have got to get out of their own way or the Faithful will have Pitchforks & Torches in Wrigleyville!

[@SetupManCubs]

It’s out of control

[@Roger.R.M.A.]

At least we have this podcast to take us through the season ...

[@SetupManCubs]

Sharing in our pain and misery lol

[@danielplotkin1586]

Apparently fair ball called dead with umpire pointing directly at the catcher and awarding first base to the batter. I guess I understand why the announcers think Blues Clues is some complex mystery show.

[@SetupManCubs]

You don’t think the umpires or the PA should use the microphone to tell people the call? It’s one of the rarest occurrences in baseball. Later in the game, the ump sent a runner back to 1st and no one could figure out why. It makes 0 sense

[@michaelboldyga6239]

How many more catcher mistakes and sub .200 BA will it take before the Amaya and Armstrong experiment ends ? Neither of these guys belong on a major league roster and that's been evident to everybody for quite some time , but Hoyer lets them plod along while he and Ricketts stick it to the fans just like they did to David Ross . Now they're getting what they deserve . I hope Wrigley is empty for the rest of the year . I dropped Marquee 3 weeks ago , I won't pay to watch that crap .

[@SetupManCubs]

Respectfully disagree about PCA. His defense is elite and his bat will get better. But if he hits .225 and plays GG CF, I’m happy

[@michaelboldyga6239]

@@SetupManCubs That's the problem with Chicago sports fans . They settle for mediocrity and hope . Your suggesting that keeping a guy in the lineup every damn day that's hitting .195 is good baseball sense , especially an outfielder who should basically only be a defensive replacement . Even at .225 it's unacceptable . If he hasn't hit MLB pitching by now he should be back at AAA working on his hitting , this on the job training ain't makin it . And as for Amaya, he's the worst Cubs catcher I've ever seen , offensively and defensively . The lack of production from those two guys is hurting the team as much as that incompetent bullpen . Winning teams don't operate like this , they constantly make adjustments till they get it right . This front office has just sat on their hands . It's not fair to the fans or the players .

[@mitchstaff8281]

I would not call that pitch a hanger. It had good movement with a little too much of the plate to give to a rookie with a hot bat, sure, but a hanger, no.

[@robhansen6370]

Get your eyes checked, dude. That, most definitely, was a hanger.

[@mitchstaff8281]

@@robhansen6370 To me a hanger is a pitch that doesn't break. IMO the pitch starts middle and breaks low and away (still in the zone). I guess if a hanger is a pitch that doesn't break enough then your definition has a broader meaning.

[@Dingers44]

Oh and I was there, Ian probably couldn’t rob that HR regardless from what i saw

[@SetupManCubs]

Thanks for sharing. Tough to tell from the angle we had

[@Dingers44]

Why did i travel up to Wrigley North to watch this team

[@daBEAGLE1017]

Because you are a dedicated Cub fan. Nothing wrong with that.

[@Dysfunctional_Daisy]

because yall have a humiliation kink

[@c-dublife]

to spend your money in Milwaukee where they are playing with swagger and heart. unlike in Chicago

[@stich21]

Wrigley is a dump that smells like piss. Don’t put that name on our glorious ball park

[@scout805]

Wrigley north? PLEASE! You wish that decrepit park in Shitcago was half as nice as the Brew Crew's! Nice to know ya won't be shot or carjacked either! How's that sanctuary thing working out y'all voted for? CASE CLOSED!

[@everetttauscher8377]

Thanks for the show Kyle! I'm prepared for a sell off. Nothing will surprise me. LET'S GO CUBS!!! ⚾️ ✌️ 💙 🐻

[@SetupManCubs]

Same, unfortunately 😪

[@bartstarr100]

He wasn't going to catch thst. Not a chance
