Did Mo have bad splits vs lefties in the minors?

Last year he had a .965 OPS vs. RHP and .577 against LHP, though in 2024 it was .832 vs. RHP and .804 vs. LHP (96 PA)

I'm hoping the contract extension plus hot start finally gives Nico the attention he deserves and a 1st all star appearance

[JHBulls]

I am convinced that PCA just really, really enjoys running.

At some point,  Mo will have to get some PAs against lefties.  He's just too good of a hitter.   They always tried to protect Schwarber from lhp and now he's better against them than rhp.

Boog does that often.  I'm on the record as really not loving it.

Never was a fan of boog even before he got cubs job and he hasn't changed my mind about him since.

Feel like Cabrera got super lucky today

They will but theres no rush when they can use Shaw against lefties now.

Glad Cabrera got out of that, was hoping for 7 from him today to save the pen for the next 2 games.

It's about horsefeathers time, how many times have seen the Cubs crush balls with nothing to show?  Turn about is fair play I say.

The people who gripe about Boog have clearly never spent any amount of time listening to other team's announcers that aren't the Dodgers, Mets, or Yankees.  They're mostly just not good and some are downright unlistenable like whatever slop the Cardinals are throwing out there of late.

[Tryptamine]

Well this is just baffling

The Mets own him, so today was among his best against them

Why do I feel like 7 not gonna be enough here...

Get it done bullpen

How about 9+ runs?

[mk49]

Another 10 runs game.  I'm happy.

[We Got The Whole 9]

3 straight games over 10 runs.l ❤️‍🔥

[Rcal10]

I don’t like Webb AT ALL. 
NOT GOOD.

[Rcal10]

Wind blowing out. This game could get close. Not over. 

[UMFan83]

there is not a single healthy reliever that I have any confidence in at this point unless I'm forgetting someone.

[JHBulls]

Yeah, let’s not turn a 7 run lead into a nervous finish. 

[We Got The Whole 9]

[JHBulls]

Timely double play. 

[UMFan83]

Phew

He did not pitch that poorly.  3 of those hits were not hit hard at all.

Thielbar is about it for me and that might be a stretch
