Nah, not sensitive at all.

Congrats to Soto.

You’re a bit too sensitive. I didn’t say anything about your post. I just think it’s amazing that Soto’s been able to destroy the ball right after the streak.

Sav,

I think you mean to post this at the Golden Sombrero article. Not here. And yes, Soto is not only having a great week but an outstanding year to date.

Still, there aren’t too many players in the history of the Majors that struck out 8 times in a row. The point wasn’t that Soto sucks, It was that Soto did something rarely seen.

Get over it.

Soto now 12-26 with 6 doubles, 3 homers and 5 walks since the 8 Ks.

I think he’s gotten over it.

Since Soto’s 8th K, he’s 8-20 w/ 4 doubles, 2 homers, 3 walks and 9 RBI.

That’s a 1.378 OPS.

Guys,

Shouldn’t Owings earn the homer of the day for pinch-hit as a starting pitcher, induced the opponent to bring out a lefty reliever to deal with him, but still roped that very first pitch he saw?

I would call that the day.

The Cubbies are out of control!

They offense can’t keep this up forever and the pitching is always a roller coaster in Chi-town… but right now a Red Sox vs Cubs WS is looking the a very real possibility!
