Need at least 6 solid innings out of Imanaga tonight, if bats cant do anything with Skenes, hopefully they can get to the bullpen late.

Skenes gives up 2 or less ER in 75% of his starts this season. He's also pitched less than 6 innings in half his starts, including 7 of his last 12.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Gonna need 6 or 7 innings of 1/0 ER out of Shota.

- Skenes against the Cubs: 2.77 (8 games)

 

What does this mean?  Maybe, nothing.😁

Shota also made an adjustment and I locating himself on the 3rd base side of the rubber . Results have been better since the adjustment .
