I'm sorry, thought the Cubs had a very good chance tonight. But, this game is way over, it's not a matter of if they lose, just by how much. Hopefully, they don't get swept tomorrow.
So far in Iowa he's sporting a WHIP of 0.961 which is a big decrease from almost anything he's done at any level. I don't know how to tell if it'll be fixed at the MLB level.
With the big decrease in velocity from last week I knew something was wrong. Ethan Roberts? Why not Little? Or, do the Cubs need see some more strike throwing from Little?
And, I don't believe the Brewers have the resources to cancel out the Cubs' advantage. Cubs don't have to exactly match the Brewers pitching, they just have to improve the staff.
The Brewers are good, I do believe they have some offensive shortcomings that'll eventually show up. Nonetheless, they are a good team, doesn't mean I have to like it or obsess over how good they are as many seem to do.
Appears Festa' stuff is almost a carbon copy of yesterday' starter for the Twins. After taking a night off, I believe the Cubs will score plenty of runs tonight. Think they've a good chance to win tonight.
Just one game and really, I don’t give a horsefeathers about the Brewers. Cubs are better and within a few weeks will have an improved starting staff. They’ll be facing another substandard starter tomorrow, I don’t think that leave junk over the middle trick is going to work again for the Twins.
No reason at all the Cubs can’t win the next two. Twins are very beatable, Hodge may not completely healthy,, I’d like to see Little get another chance.
Rentals shouldn't cost more than a lottery ticket and, I agree, if you're going to trade Cassie and Wiggins it better be for someone hugely impactful for this season and beyond.
Perhaps, this is the series Shaw breaks out a little? Some thought he was close, series against the Cardinals he had maybe, one hit, don't recall him hitting the ball particularly hard.
As an aside, I know many of us, including myself, have been dogging on Rea but, holy horsefeathers was he good on the fourth. Maybe one mistake, to Winn, which PCA erased, for the whole game?
The Cubs miss Ryan, Lopez is on the DL, the remainder of Twins' rotation appears to be the type of pitchers the Cubs feast on. Is that a fairly accurate statement?
