Diamondbacks @ Cubs: Godly vs. Lester (Game 133)

Submitted by CTSteve on

The Cubs get back at it, after a much-needed day off.

AZ (65-69): RHP Zack Godley (4-0, 1.90)
CHC (75-57): LHP Jon Lester (8-10, 3.59)
First pitch: 1:20pm

Lester got roughed up (6 IP, 5 ER) by the Dodgers on Saturday and took the loss. He went 2-2 with a 5.04 for the month. AZ is 13-74 (.176) against him. Goldschmidt is 3-6 with a HR.

Godley, the 25y/o South Carolinian rookie, has been good in his handful of games for the D’Backs--5 appearances, 3 starts. He pitched in relief and got the win against the Nationals in his last outing (3.2 IP, 1 ER). Austin Jackson, the only Cub to face him, is 1-2.

Ray vs. Arrieta on Saturday and De La Rosa vs. Hendricks on Sunday.

Go Cubs!

Len just said Cubs are last in the majors in batting average. I had to look that up to confirm it. Methinks the opposite will be true in a few years.

Lester does not get the Michael Jordan treatement from umpires. He really has to fight for his strikes sometimes.

one of the slowest men in the game is taking a 20+ft lead off 2nd. i think the "he's working on throwing over" knockdown scare has worn off in the 4th inning. it keeps working, though. this is at least the 3rd time someone from the club has announced "he's working on throwing over" and the opposing team being cautious the next game. they should do this before every start.

Cubs with lowest batting average in MLB but highest walk total in NL, as Rizzo clubs a grand slam

Baez homer 3-3 Send bullpen home go get your complete game Lester

Jon Lester scored his first career run today. And his 2nd. Now I see why hit bats 8th.

Kinda weird stat -- the NL has 5 teams that are at least 20 games under -- it was 6 before the Brewers swept the Pirates -- and there are none in the AL. Oakland has the worst record in the AL at 18 under. Hunh.

Even when logically I know I should root for the Cardinals, I cannot. I think it's worse than the Packers thing. I think it's literally the worst thing.

    Hi Arizona Phil!

    Exciting to see Naz Mule in box scores a few times. What's his stuff like now after the TJS?

  • Childersb3 (view)

    Mastrobuoni can't come back, yet

    Wisdom does have an option left. He can hide in Iowa if Jed DFA's someone else

    Does Brennan Davis get shown the door? I know it's too early for that, but these injuries are crunching the roster of a 12-7 team playoff demands and BDavis isn't going to help anytime soon.

    Someone has to go to add Peralta. And Canario isn't going to get to play everyday regardless of RHers or LHers. Neither is Tauchman. Also don't see PCA getting a chance over Peralta.

    If Jed does those moves:

    4 OF: Belli, Peralta, Canny, Tauch

    2 C: Gomes and Amaya

    2 DH: Cooper and Mervis

    5 INF: Busch, Nico, Dansby, Morel, Madrigal

    Little short on OF depth but two injuries will do that

    I have had the pleasure of watching some of the young A's pitchers lately (first Joe Boyle the last day of Minor League Spring Training in March, and more recently Luis Morales last week and Steven Echavarria yesterday at Extended Spring Training), and it reminds me of the Miami Marlins a couple of years ago. A really nice collection of young pitchers. It will be interesting to see what the A's will get for two years of ex-Cub Paul Blackburn at the Trade Deadline (there should be a robust market for Blackburn).

    Good deal

    MB needs some talent infusion!

  • Arizona Phil (view)

    Childersb3: Very possible. Suriel, too.

    DJL: if a pitcher is recalled to be the 27th man for a doubleheader and then is optioned back to the minors the next day, the 15-day "clock" does NOT reset. The one day call-up for the doubleheader is treated like it never happened with respect to a pitcher having to spend at least 15 days on optional assignment before he can be recalled.

    Probably the only reason David Peralta is still in the organization (he is at AAA Iowa) is to be available in case anything bad were to happen to Ian Happ (which it just did). So if Happ needs to go on the IL, the Cubs can select Peralta to play LF, DFA Wisdom (and hope he and what remains of his $2.725M salary gets claimed off waivers), and recall Mervis to platoon at DH with Cooper (with Canario / Tauchman sharing RF), at least until Suzuki and Happ are back...

    i'd just like to take a moment to express to the world i'm still pissed willson contreras is not a cub when the pricetag was 5/87m (17.5m/yr).

    it would be nice to have a legacy-type player to stick around, especially one with his leadership and the respect he gets from his peers.  cubs fans deserved more than 1 season of contreras + morel...that was gold.

    happ, right hamstring tightness, day-to-day (hopefully 0 days).

    he will be reevaluated tomorrow.

  • Childersb3 (view)

    I guess I'm not looking for that type of AB 

    Just a difference of opinion
