  1. He’s sandwhiched very good starts with bad starts this year His last 4 starts: 6+ IP, 2 ER (CHC) 7 IP, 1 ER (PHI) 3 IP, 5 ER (ARI) 7 IP, 1 ER (SD)
  2. Well at least 1 team has been able to hit home runs into the wind this series
  3. The Cubs have scored 10+ runs in 8 of their 28 road games (29%) and 4 of their 26 home games (15%). Could be a coincidence (and this is just one random stat) but wonder if Wrigley is trending towards a massive pitchers park for the 2nd year in a row
  4. Marquez’s season era has gone down 0.31 runs after 2 shutout innings (7.66 to 7.35)
  5. Positive report about Caleb's start with the new coaching staff: https://www.si.com/nfl/nfl-takeaways-jim-irsay-greatest-accomplishment-colts#_wr5bovjjw
  6. His WHIP this year without the blowup extra inning performance is 1.47 and he’s striking out 4.7 per 9 innings. I’m not saying he shouldn’t be getting more chances to get on track but I’m not sure I’d make the argument that he’s actually good except 2 games this year. The results have been acceptable outside of those performances but the underlying numbers wouldn’t suggest that he’s been pitching effectively, though seems to be a little better lately
  7. Wrigley crowd booing when the result is the same lol
  8. Gotta love when the starter pitches 6.1 innings without walking anyone and the reliever comes in and walks the first guy.
  9. This is now Palmquist’s longest start of the year at 4.2 IP.
  10. Did not expect to struggle to beat the Rockies today. need one of those 6 run innings
  11. Geez that’s a HR probably in 70 games per year at Wrigley
  12. This dude's first 2 starts: 8.1 IP, 16 H, 11 ER, 5 BB Seems to be doing better today but I suppose it can't get much worse.
  13. Has anyone else noticed that Zach McKinstry is on pace for roughly 5 fWAR this year? I won’t lament it because I didn’t think too highly of him but that’s wild
  14. Just want to point out that the Stars have been outscored 9-1 by the Oilers in the 2 games since this post lol
  15. Also looking at baseball savant for the game, -Neither of McGuire's HRs today would have been gone at Wrigley -Nico's double in the 7th would have been a HR at Wrigley (only a HR at Wrigley and whatever they are calling the Brewers' stadium these days)
  16. The Cubs have scored 10+ runs in 23% of their games this year. Is that good? Feels like that is good
  17. Seiya has had great runs like this before but seems like every time things are going well he gets hurt. We’re finally seeing what a healthy(ish) Seiya can do over an extended period
  18. How many 3+ game series a year do you think have no innings end with the score tied?
  19. So Cubs catchers are tied with PCA for the team lead in HRs lol
  20. Dude I've been almost saying Turner instead of Tucker all season but think I've caught it every single time until now lol
  21. I think PCA and Tucker have hype that goes beyond Cubs fandom. Seiya will be very tough to be voted in because he'll be listed as a DH along with Ohtani (I think). Dansby will have a very tough time with Perdomo, Lindor, Abrams, and Turner as options. I'm betting PCA and Tucker (not Turner) get voted in, Seiya as a reserve and maybe Dansby as well. Can't see any pitchers making it. Maybe with Carson Kelly getting extra playing time with Amayas injury, if he gets hot again he can make it. Edit: Also forgot Betts is a SS now too, another likely option to make it
