Cubs (Rolison/Wicks) vs Brewers (Woodruff): 6/28/26, 1:10pm

[Jason Ross]

Damn. 

[We Got The Whole 9]

I called that internally

[PeanutPunch33]

If Wicks can give them like 3 innings and not give up more than a run (a miracle, I know) they have a chance.  

[Geographyhater8888]

Cubs haven’t even gotten in base at all in the first 3 innings since Thursday.

[PeanutPunch33]

Cubs are swinging early and often.  Need to put some pressure on Woodruff to throw more pitches.

PCA has not looked great the last few games.  Hopefully just a small bump for him.

He had to come back down to earth - he’s a stud, so he will come back. Just cooling off from where he was - he was on a RIDICULOUS pace and to maintain that is near impossible

Woodruff throws a lot of strikes and rarely walks hitter. It's probably not a winning proposition to take a lot. That said I would like it if they chased the high fastball less.

[Bull]

I would love to see Woodruff reunited with Counsell this offseason.

[Papa Cub]

Smoked that ball - just right at RF 

[PeanutPunch33]

Would be nice to see PCA put one in the seats here.  Or down the RF line.  

[Jason Ross]

Milwaukee sucks at challenges. Yeesh. 

[Derwood]

Brewer catcher are as bad at ABS challenges as Cubs hitters

[PeanutPunch33]

Impressive AB.

This Bregman RISP thing is gonna regress eventually, why not start now

[Jason Ross]

[Derwood]

It's gotten to the point where I don't know what Bregman is looking for. He takes a lot of strikes, swings at weird pitches, and rarely makes hard contact

Or, you know, not

 

[abuck1220]

I mean one way to pump up PCA’s walk numbers is to have that dude hit behind him. 

[Geographyhater8888]

One of these days Bregman will do something that matters. In theory at least.

Ok , officially concerned about Bregman . He usually picks it up starting in June , but yeah , concerned

He's still pretty good at controlling the zone but other than that displays essentially zero attributes of a good hitter anymore

[mk49]

Bregman needs to start doing something with RISP other than strike out or pop up.

[731.4life]

First run allowed in over a month (May 17) for Ryan Rolison. Since that day, 18 innings scoreless,

Also one impressive stat for Rolison. In May, he allowed 10 walks and struck out 13 batters.

In June, he allowed 3 walks and struck out 13 batters.

Just now, Andy said:

is he? I feel like he gets jammed a lot on pitches, takes a lot of middle/middle strikes, and pops everything up. He's guessing instead of reacting

[UMFan83]

I think even the most patient fans are starting to lose that patience with Bregman.
