The Cubs are now 46-26 since their low water mark of 26-36. 46-26 translates to 104-58 over 162 games. So they've been playing at a 104 win pace for 44% of the season now. -
Was not expecting him to be part of the equation today
-
Also apparently the Reds are having a COVID outbreak right now so hope that doesn't make it into the Cubs locker room Hunter Greene was already on the COVID IL, just announced that Fernando Cruz and Ben Lively have it
-
Reds announce Lyon Richardson as their game 2 starter. He has an 8.59 ERA in 2 starts for Cincinnati this year and pitched 7.1 innings in those 2 starts. He started the season in low A, was promoted to AA where he raked (2.15 ERA in 15 starts, though only ~3 innings per start). Had 3 OK outings in AAA (3.60 ERA in 10 innings) and is now up in the majors.

I know its like "how do you want to die" but I think I'd rather play the Dodgers. I like our hitters matchups against their pitchers more and their offense is not quite as deep as the Braves. Heavy underdogs against either of course, but I think we'd have better odds of pulling off an upset against LA.
-
Fangraphs now has the Cubs playoff odds at just under 90% (89.8%) based on season to date numbers. 80.4% using their projections.
-
Obviously we root for the Phillies tonight but really either outcome is going to be fine. With a win tonight we will either be 1.5 games behind the Phillies for WC1 or 1.5 games behind the Brewers for the Central
-
Still think he'll be an all-star caliber player but the hype machine went crazy a little too soon. The league has clearly adjusted to him.
-
10 games over .500 for the 8th time in 9 seasons. 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2023
-
Come on Keegan. I'm ok with challenging the hitters in this spot but he's leaving too much over the plate
-
Not officially.....neither starter has been announced yet. But he's almost certainly going to pitch in the game for 3 innings I would think.
-
Dansby is looking a little better at the plate lately. Hopefully signs he's coming out of his funk
-
NL CENTRAL SERIAL KILLER IAN HAPP
-
He's getting closer
-
Dammit, 1 inch from the inning being over, now he's getting wild
-
Your other options are Smyly and Wesneski, assuming Ross wants to hold back Leiter
-
Ahh Derek Law. Still appreciate his contributions to the Cubs 9th inning rally in Game 4 of the 2016 NLDS
-
Maybe a good trust building inning for Keegan
-
Attaboy Seiya! Insurance
-
Is there something wrong with the mound today? I've never seen so many bouncing pitches in my life.
-
Merryweather does not look on today so far. That was like a 49 ft pitch
-
OK if this is the Palencia inning, I'm going to shut off the game and work for a bit. Really don't feel like the tension of a Palencia inning
-
I didnt think he hit a HR but i thought it was a hit off the bat
-
One way to get Amaya to continue swinging at pitches way outside is to call the ones he does take strikes
