Wesneski has allowed a 1.040 OPS against lefties coming into today. If he really gets 5 lefties out in a 7 batter stretch in a 1 run game I’m gonna start thinking this is really our year 😂 -
Baseball has a way of surprising you sometimes. Very nice work
-
My lord he did it. Very nice
-
Whoops I mean lefty, righty, lefty lefty. if we lose it’s because of Wesneski pitching this inning
-
Edit: double post
-
A righty and then 2 lefties coming up. Surely Ross won’t let Wesneski face lefty De La Cruz and Martini right?
-
At this point I kind of want Dansby to suck for another 3 weeks so that he can start getting hot the last 1-2 weeks of the season and be hot during October.
-
Feels like we should celebrate every time Wesneski gets a lefty out
-
Hell yeah, Happ finding a way
-
And now Wesneski. I’ll be the guy that complains about not using the long shot reliever who wasn’t signed to a contract 3 months ago
-
So the whole Green thing was a diversion to let Ross sneak in another Drew Smyly start. Ross really loves his guys
-
2 hits in 4 innings against bad pitching
-
Ok that’s enough of Smyly now that it’s tied
-
Yep. I do get making De La Cruz bat righty but it’s a strange move in the 1st inning even as an opener
-
I’d rather not
-
Not sure but not including today he has a .158/.244/.250/.494 batting line with a 30% k rate in his last 21 games
-
The Cubs somehow do not score despite making him throw 37 pitches and walking 3
-
Dammit Dansby
-
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.
