    Brings his OPS up to ~.770

    He's on the 7-day IL based on MB's roster here (but so is Made and he's batting 2nd for MB right now): https://www.milb.com/myrtle-beach/roster The league's transactions page hasn't been updated to include Made coming off the IL. Yeah I feel like the roster pages can often be out of date, so I tend to look at the lineup/bench on GameDay. Though that's burned me before too, and hopefully did again tonight.

    GameDay isn't as reliable for MILB but I don't see Howard on the MB roster anymore....

    Hearn with his best game as a pro, 2/3 with a walk and a dong Howard with two hits and maybe as importantly no K's in 5 ABs

    I think we're going to find out

    They're getting fewer than 4 IP per start the last 6 days, kinda necessitates a stocked pen

    I joked to my wife that Jake was going to throw that ball away, but I didn't actually think it was going to happen. Wow.

    Honestly? Pull Willson now. Dude has been run into the ground, give him 90% of a day off.

    I forget, guys can still hit with a bum UCL, right? Like it'd really suck regardless, but maybe he could at least DH for a few months and get the surgery over the offseason.

    It's good to see Hudson doing well after a bit of hype last fall. I'm not sure what a Successor Contract requires, but I don't think Hudson is going to be 40 man worthy, so hopefully it's an option.

    Me to Jed if we don't win the next two games:

    Is it a safe assumption he was using some tiky tak? Probably just the innings. He's got 38 and we're not even halfway through the season.

    Wisdom is pathetic against high fastballs and Freddy Peralta's bread and butter is high fastballs.

    The Cubs played like 90% done with their tough out of division games in May and June, especially June. They have home and away against the Sox, the Giants at Wrigley, and the always tough @Coors series. That's it unless the Twins or Phillies get their horsefeathers together. The Brewers have a fairly easy schedule themselves, but they've got 7 tough series remaining, plus those same Twins/Phillies games and a comparable series against the Braves. They do have a few additional Pirates/Tigers games remaining though. All that said, these next three games are about as lopsided as they can be. If we get swept and end up 6 back, it's really hard to hang your hat on a marginally easier remaining schedule. Hell, even if we lose 2/3 and end up "only" 4 back.

    Perlaza is getting interesting
  22. Bertz
    Yeah, I imagine it's merely a matter of 40 man messiness at this point. I wouldn't be surprised if by August 1st any/all of these guys are out of the org (the latter two would be by trade rather than DFA): Sogard Lobaton Arrieta Ortega Maples Brothers That'll mostly be in service of bringing in better like-for-like options, but should still provide the opportunity to get a look at Leeper or (less likely) Ethan Roberts.
  23. Bertz
    Jake's had a lot more juice on the fastball the last two outings. It hasn't actually meant anything yet, but I think if you promise me he'll continue to be 93-94 from here on out I'm likely to believe he can be salvaged.
  24. Bertz
    For this year's Rockies, on the road, forcing the Brewers to use both Williams and Hader is about as much as you can expect. Hopefully they get them in the game once more this weekend, because that'll affect our series next week.
  25. Bertz
    I assume he meant each of the teams individually. Cubs were 3-0 against LA before yesterday with 4 games left. yeah that makes sense now Yeah, that's what I was going for. I like to see that we're competitive against the relevant teams on the schedule. We got worked by the Braves and the Giants (though haven't seen the Giants at Wrigley yet), and TBD against the White Sox, but that's have really stood up to all the other good teams on the schedule.
