Heh. Ademan has doubled in a run against Anibal Sanchez (or the remnants thereof) while Hudson struck out Paredes.

[We Got The Whole 9]

The league adjusted very well to Paredes after he went on that HR binge

 

155/285/180 in his last 75 PA

[CubsWin]

Hudson with his longest outing of the season. He completed 7.2 innings on just 97 pitches allowing just 3 hits (all singles), 2 walks, 4 Ks and no earned runs (just 1 unearned).

 

He's definitely progressed in the 2nd half going 8-1 with a 3.69 ERA and raising his K/9 from 4.69 to 6.75 and lowering his BAA from .288 to .259.

How this for progression?

 

July: .129/.129/.323, 0 BB, 11 K in 31 ABs

August: .289/.407/.645, 14 BB, 25 K in 76 ABs

 

That's 18-year-old OFer and 2017 5th round pick Nelson Velazquez. Hmm, Cubs may have something there...
