Cubs ride the backs of Hendricks and Alzolay to go on an 17 game winning and get back into the race

Cubs need a bit more than that to pull it off. But Wilson is acting the lead off part.

Giving up 1 hit through 5 is not a constant thing for him

Look at his player page.


25 YO.

This is his worst year 1.33 WHIP. 1.23 and a 1.11 the two years before.

Close to 11k/9.

His BB/9 Needs some work. 3.81.

But what I really look at outside of that is hits. This year is his worst year. 7.07. A pitcher is going to be good if it is under 1 hit per inning given up. He has been in the 6 range for the most part so that is what I really look at when judging a pitcher.

Actually that is the reason why Hendricks and Alzolay have been good. Alozay 1.11 WHIP. Hendricks 1.26. Adbert has been burnt by the HR but outside of a fingerblister game he has held his own for the most part.

Davies has a 1.45 WHIP. It is pretty amazing how he has not been a trainwreck to this point. 9 HR given up with 48 walks. Good thing he keeps it in the park. With his walk rate things could get ugly on a bad day.

He’s good….but we should be getting more than a single hit in 5

Weird. Cubs have a powderpuff schedule the rest of the way.

Yep. Team might get better by subtraction.

I see Bote and Duffy in rehab starts as the needed depth to replace players traded.

Bryant has been a slash player. It opens up playing time to Marisnick.

Duffy returning pushes Wisdom to 1B.

Bote pushes Hoerner to SS and 2B becomes a platoon of Bote and Sogard.

Line up

Hoerner
Contreras
Happ
Wisdom
Duffy
Heyward
Marisnick
Sogard

That will guarentee a solid top 15 draft pick. Trade Kimbrel amd toss Maples in the 9th.

Rizzo tied Aramis Ramirez for 6th all time on the cubs all time homerun list. Move up that list before you get traded, anthony! Increase that trade value as well
Aramis Ramirez. We could have used a bat like his this season.

This is hilarious. If you people hate this team so much....why do you continue to watch? Apparently, they are getting killed again from what I'm reading here....it's like watching reruns of the worst TV shows. Why? lmao
"Content creators" do that as well as watch and review bad movies, video games, and music on YouTube as their jobs.

Not shocking on a Davies night. 11 walks. What a crapper.
