Cubs @ Reds: Arrieta vs Finnegan (Game 16)

Submitted by CTSteve on

After taking all three from the Reds at Wrigley last week, the Cubs attempt to do it on the road.

CHC (11-4): RHP Jake Arrieta (3-0, 1.23)
CIN (8-7): LHP Brandon Finnegan (1-0, 2.04)
First pitch: 6:10pmCST

Arrieta pitched 8-scoreless innings against the Rockies on Saturday for his third win of the young season, walking one and striking out eight. He was an astounding 13-1 with a 1.60 on the road last year, even better than his Wrigley numbers. The Reds are 16-60 (.267) against him. Phillips is 4-11, and Cozart is 4-12.

The Cubs faced Finnegan at Wrigley on April 11. He gave up 2 ER in 6.2 and ended up with a no-decision, in a game the Cubs would go on to win 5-3, thanks to Russell’s 8th-inning 3-run homer. The Cubs are 1-21 (.045) against Finnegan, with Ross being responsible for the sole hit.

Lester (1-1, 2.21) vs. Moscot (0-0, 4.76) tomorrow at 6:10pmCST.

Go, Cubs!

2nd start vs a lefty where zobrist is knocked down deeper into the lineup. i would have thought zobrist would be the guy in the 2-slot vs lefties with heyward moving back if i was betting on things...dude's put up a couple years of .400-ish ob% vs lefties. heyward pretty much owns the 2-slot in maddon's lineups...didnt think his role would be that static. looks like a lot of heyward/zobrist 2/3 vs righties and heyward/bryant 2/3 vs lefties. it's maddon, though...lineups could change to match winning lotto numbers or pop songs at any given moment. also, d.ross gets the start today. he's not been used as much this season so far. looks like he's going in back to back games with lester due up next.

Ross has a .400 OBP and he scored tonight because of his legs, he hit a HR and he also picked off a runner at 1st. Dude is on fire.

Welcome to the big leagues, kid. Ouch. Young Red pitchers not looking to impressive tonight.

it’s a little silly for the announcers to say: “fasten those seat belts” when the game goes to the bottom of the 9th with the score 13 16-0...but in this case, I'll give them a pass.

Wow.

David Ross was talking a few days ago about never having caught a no-no. Scratch that off his bucket list.

Holy shit!!!!! Of course, no thanks to the ump who blew two strikes that also would have ended the game. What is it with these guys? As Thibs says, "DO.YOUR.JOB."

18 hits and STILL 9 LOB!!! Can we play them every game? Like the Nats playing ATL and PHI?

    25 games played with a -85 run differential.  insane.

    White Sox DFA Bailey Horn. I'm thinking the Cubs would love to get him back although they probably won't have a decent chance of claiming him without another swap.

    WSox also call up former Cub Rafael Ortega (and additionally Tommy Pham). They are hurting and having a gawd awful April.

    White Sox DFA'd Bailey Horn.

    He wasn't producing good results in Charlotte (AAA).

    But Jed might bring him back with that open 40man spot. Then try the "sneak him thru waivers" gambit.

    Oh my, now I will have nightmares of me sitting in the bowels of the Wrigley security detention cell.

    One more thing...

    One of the reasons I come to this site...

     ...in addition to Arizona Phil, who is, as we all know, a treasure trove of well-written fresh information, honest evaluation, and sneaky-subtle humor regarding the entire Cub organization...

    ... is CubbyBlue and Tim's fantastic and timely visual takes on the Cubs (to be fair, he does have a much broader Chicago-flavored brush well beyond the Cubs).  Thanks for so many memorable images.  I am fortunate to own (one of my prize possessions) a print that I framed (55/200) of "The Last Out" with KB's shit-eating grin as he fields the series winning out of the 2016 WS.

    Tim, will you visit me if I do the text security thingy and description: Tim S? Or will I find myself in a Cub detention cell.

    i.e. "or send a text message to 773-839-**** with the keyword "Friendly" and include your seat location and a description of your issue.

    Incredible moment. Huge part of the fun of working there is when something magic like that happens, and you get to interact with baseball fans.

    That bear hug was indeed awesome. Word is that Dansby has become an outstanding clubhouse leader and that moment really demonstrated it. That reaction was one of a proud coach/mentor who’s student just excelled. I’m not even sure who was more overjoyed, Dansby or PCA. A veteran expressing that kind of unabashed support and enthusiasm for a struggling rookie is beyond fantastic to see.

    BAHAHA! I've actually not seen a single fight, but can't wait to see 70 degrees for sure!

  • crunch (view)

    next time i roll up into wrigley i'll try to start a fist fight and maybe we'll meet.

    be prepared.  i'm gonna make you earn your money.

    seriously, though...that's a cool as hell "retirement" assignment.  i imagine it will be better with warmer nights.
