That's what I was thinking, he's not going to get enough PT at Chelsea. Maybe they loan him out at some point?
-
He’s throwing. Sounds like he’s getting closer to returning but not ready yet. -
Rangers win, the Cubs are 1 game out of a playoff spot
-
Reds lose, Rangers entered the 9th with a 9-6 lead but it’s now 9-8, though with 2 outs.
-
Nats increase lead over the Reds to 7-3 in the 9th. Rangers up 8-6 in the 8th Unfortunately the Brewers have Burnes pitching tonight and the Pirates are countering with someone that has a 5.13 ERA, which would have been much higher if any of the 6 runs he allowed last game were earned.

LOL Rich Hill

Ohtani is going to cite the Cubs not having enough 40+ FV prospects as his main reason for turning down the Cubs offer this offseason.

Braves lineup is almost the exact same as last year's except swapping William Contreras with Murphy and Dansby with Arcia. The lineup was already very good, but almost every player in the lineup is having a significantly better season this year than last year. OPS change from 2022 to 2023 Matt Olson: +.164 Ozzie Albies: +.114 Orlando Arcia: +.065 Austin Riley: +.035 Eddie Rosario: +.165 Michael Harris: -.058 Ronald Acuna Jr: +.244 Marcell Ozuna: +.094 So 8 of their 9 regulars have increased their OPS, 6 of them pretty significantly. Like what the horsefeathers is going on over in suburban Atlanta for almost literally every single player to be hitting significantly better than last year? Are they stealing signs or some horsefeathers?
-
Yeah and while Steele is great and I'm more than happy to have him on the bump tomorrow, he's not really a guy you can hope goes 7+ innings to save the pen. I believe he's only gone more than 6.1 IP twice this year.
-
First time I'll ever post this in a game the Cubs mostly led comfortably throughout and the opponent never had the tying run at the plate after the 6th.
-
The Cubs held a 3+ run lead from the bottom of the 1st inning until the bottom of the 9th and I was sweating the entire time. Cubs win!
-
So missed a HR to dead center by inches, then a sharp hit down the line, then a no doubt HR. Not ideal
-
And its 8-6
-
Feel like the rain isn't helping. He's fighting for grip on the ball
-
9 innings, 0 1-2-3 innings for the Braves hitters today
-
lol, that's one
-
Looks like it will be Adbert. Shut em down and get the W Of course the rain has picked up between innings
-
Yeah...if this was the pre-3 batter minimum era, I'd be ok with letting Cuas pitch until someone gets on base, but would be brutal to bring in Alzolay with the tying run at the plate because you tried to get cute and avoid using him.
-
So do you take no chances and bring Alzolay in with 2-3-4 coming up and a 4+ run lead, or do you get cute and try to steal 3 outs with Cuas to try to keep Alzolay fresh?
-
I'm really looking forward to that 3 off days in 8 days stretch coming up after 16 straight games. Good chance to recharge, skip a Stroman start and get the pen rested.
-
Also Marlins are up 5-0 in their game so looking like the most we can gain in the WC today if these scores hold is 0.5 games.
-
Hell yeah! Got 2 from Merryweather. Great stuff
-
Nationals up 5-0 over the Reds. Finish this off
-
OK, would have loved to get the runner from 2nd home with 0 outs, but a lot more comfortable with a 4 run lead and 6 outs to get instead of a 3 run lead with 9 outs to get.
