Can someone more versed in Padres pen tell me which high leverage arms are in good shape tomorrow if Suarez finishes this game? Really just Miller and Morejon that are limited since Suarez didnt pitch yesterday right? -
Was it Kyle that used to obsess about how the Cubs would always get eliminated losing 3 straight games without any offense? Obviously they can win tomorrow but the offense feels a lot like 2007, 2008, 2018 and 2020 when it just feels like it's impossible for the Cubs to string 2 hits together much less a run. They definitely found a way to get 3 yesterday but today is rough and hopeless feeling.
-
3 hits and 1 intentional walk in 6 innings for the Cubs offense
-
Of course. Line drive up the middle caught earlier in the game, deflection right to 1B this time
-
Yeah, Boyd would be on regular rest if Game 2 was on a Sunday but definitely fine with an extra day of rest. Blah blah blah yeah I know get there first lol
-
I'm just curious. Guessing Assad would be the choice, especially if Soroka goes multiple innings tomorrow. But the Cubs are gonna put up 4 this inning anyways.
-
With Rea going today and Taillon going tomorrow barring a comeback, not sure who starts game 1 against Milwaukee. I mean yeah get there first but Assad? Soroka?
-
While true, Jed should have anticipated Boyd and/or Horton wearing down after greatly exceeded their innings from previous years.
-
Thielbar is certainly a choice
-
Tons of weak contact all series (with notable exceptions). Just feels impossible the way they are swinging it right now to put together a rally much less score 3 runs.
-
1 total unintentional walk by the Cubs offense in 13 innings this series.
-
Taillon would be on short rest since he started Saturday
-
That HR hurts too because unless the Cubs can get 1-2 back, the Padres can be a little looser with their pen usage and hold some guys back.
-
My phone was on delay and I was looking at the box score wondering why it said Shota had a 4.91 ERA in the playoffs. Oh that's why
-
There's that HR ball
-
horsefeathers hell I can't do this anymore.
-
Right, at least give him a chance to get into a good count and maybe get a pitch he can hit.
-
That pen is going to be in rough shape tomorrow unless one of them is able to eat 2-3 innings.
-
The fact that he put it in play should be considered a success
-
horsefeathers at least take until you get a strike. They're not gonna give you anything to hit.
-
It's only the 4th inning and we're down 1-0. You keep the glove in there IMO.
-
If PCA finds a way to come through here, I'll be stunned. make me look bad PCA.
-
I'd pitch around Kelly to get to PCA here if I was the Padres. Edit: Yep, I didnt think they'd actually INT walk him but with a lefty ready thats absolutely the right call.
-
No Dansby slander, he's been huge.
-
Yeah his command is not there at all. He needs to find it fast or its gonna cost us the game.
