Plus they said Caratini is on deck. Let Happ bat and have Almora PH for the pitcher if it gets there.
-
Why are we PHing Almora for Happ? That’s an insane decision.
-
At least Albert only hit into one out.
-
5-0 after 2 is pretty acceptable also.

The A’s are pretending it’s 2010 again because they’re giving starts to Trevor Cahill also.
-
And Thames just walked it off. Wade Davis sucks.
-
He's still walking over 4 per 9 like last year except his K's are down to 10 per 9. ERA of 4.57, FIP of 3.99. Making $18M next year, $17M in 2020 and has a $15M mutual option in 2021 that becomes a player option with 30 games finished in 2020 and if he's healthy going into 2021.

Phew. Nice fake rally, Padres.
-
Well this is lovely.
-
Nothing easy apparently.
-
Please get out of this.
-
Fun fact: Duensing’s FIP is one run worse.
-
It really amazes me how frequently pitchers throw the ball into center or get close to it on plays like that.
-
A grounder right at Baez or Russell would be ideal.

It always bugs me when a pitch like that gets called a strike because it was never a strike. At least if it curves across the plate and ends up a couple inches off, it was in the zone at some point. That pitch never was.
-
Looked out to me. Oh well, no challenge available.
-
And with the pitcher coming up. Gave us an auto out to start the third.
-
Or, considering he’s been hitting well there, they could just keep him in that spot.

Rougned Odor has a career 4.6% walk rate. This year, he’s at 7.1% (before today). Two years ago, he walked 19 times in 632 plate appearances. Today, he had 6 plate appearances and walked in 5 of them. None of them were intentional. In his other PA, he homered. He’s apparently the 4th player ever with 5 BB and 1 HR in a game, along with Aaron, McGwire and Edgar Martinez.

Did Chatwood pitch for Milwaukee?

Duensing allowed 1 run over his first 16 2/3 innings, which spanned 23 appearances. Since then, he's pitched in 20 games and 17 2/3 innings including tonight. Here are some fun facts about those 20 games. -He's allowed an ERA of 13.75. Tonight's outing actually lowered his ERA in that span from 14.36. -He's allowed at least one run in 12 of those 20 outings. -He's allowed at least two runs in 10 of those 20 outings. -If you make it two or more earned runs, it drops that all the way down to 9 of his 20 outings. -In only two of those 20 outings he didn't allow a single baserunner. He faced a combined 3 batters in those 2 outings.

I would find it acceptable for the Cubs to have one loss this series. They decided to make it the first game. They better win the next horsefeathering three. I'd be happy with 5-2 against the Pads and Royals, however they want to get there.
