In reality they need 2 high leverage arms if not 3 . They won’t be able to match what other playoffs teams have in their pens , but they have to get more competitive in that area for sure .
Yeah , I think if Happ takes an il trip , Ballesteros to DH makes sense . They can’t continue giving Turner these abs in that scenario . I wonder how long they will wait with him ? With that said I think Alcantara will be up in such scenario
Cubs organization simply isn’t good with relief arms . The reliever that everybody says is their best is walking over 5 guys per inning while his k rate has gone down and HRs up . . They don’t have one single reliever that I feel comfortable giving the ball to in a tied or 1 run game .
Kaplan is hearing Horton will come up Saturday . If true the 40 roster move will be interesting . I don’t see an obvious DFA candidate . Do they give up on Pearson ?
