Tucker's first HR in forever would be nice here, hasn't hit a HR since 6/09.
-
Career 225/308/436 I don't know if that qualifies as really good, he's on heater that much is true.
-
He's very good nevertheless, he's on hot streak, I sincerely doubt he'll maintain his current pace.
-
To quite probably the worst player on the field.
-
Didn't realize how bad Garver is as well, hasn't been good since 2023, really bad.
-
At least he didn't give up the lead, Cubs will get it back. Nothing frustrates me more than walking garbage hitters like Solano, I'm certain it frustrates Pressly as well.
-
Well, luck took away and gave to the Cubs that inning.
-
At least Shaw hit the ball hard, some bad luck, probably a double if no runner is in 1B.
-
I think you're correct, Jed may be looking at bringing someone who give them offense at 3B in addition to SP.
-
I just want to see Shaw hit the ball hard, doesn't matter if it's a hit.
-
Think it was a mistake, most especially with Raleigh propensity for swinging at the first pitch, keep away from the middle.
-
It's sad that my first thought when Swanson came up - well, at least, it'll be harder for him to hit into multiple outs.
-
A bit of an exaggeration, I'll reply with another he's not even in the same universe as Barry Bonds,
-
Hasn’t this been his main issue throughout his career?
-
Don't really understand why they went with an off-speed pitch, which Cabrera hung. A soft hitter like Collins isn't going to hurt you on hard stuff or at least, there's less of chance, he'll hurt you on something hard. Should have gone hard sinker or FB on 1-1 then, maybe, go off-speed down and in or off the plate. Just like Palencia doing Hill a favor with off-speed pitches. It's only one game and, in the long term, probably won't matter.
-
The play-in game is their goal.
-
I believe the offense is starting to show signs of coming out their recent funk. The weren't dominated by Peralta today, drew some BB's, which is key, when they start drawing walks the big innings are coming. They'll take two of three from the Mariners. As stated above Jameson was probably going to regress but, I also believe he'll keep the Cubs in the game more often than not. He's definitely not weak spot in rotation that must soon be addressed.
-
Like PCA, we may not see Shaw have any offensive impact until next season. I'd keep him in the lineup because, at least, he's defensively solidified 3B. Unless Jed does something like swing a deal for Suarez and Kelly.
-
Exactly, in the long run, I don't believe the Brewers are a threat ultimately, it could possibly be the Reds. If Jed can swing a decent deal for some starting pitching the Cubs will win the Central fairly comfortably.
-
You know it's not your day when you give HR's to soft hitting guys like Durbin and Collins. Regardless of the outcome of this game I don't think the Brewers are that much of threat. While a good team, just don't think, over the long season, they're going to score enough runs.
-
OPSing over 900, 3.1 WAR, the HR's and XBH's will come, probably in bunches.
-
Cubs will make up a 3 run difference, Tallion and bullpen have to keep them in the game.
-
It's pretty oblivious Tallion doesn't have it maybe, look at giving Cabrera a few innings? While the Cubs chip away and get to the Brewers bullpen.
-
The Brewers, a GB machine, have hit 1 GB, Tallion is not dialed in today. Cubs will score some more runs hopefully, Jameson gets dialed in and starts to generate the GB's.
-
Excellent, limit the damage, the Cubs will get to Peralta today.
