Other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the theater..? St. Louis wasn’t that bad, but it wasn’t all that pretty, either. Let’s change our passwords, lick our wounds, and get back at it.

Hendricks lost to LA his last time out (5 IP, 4 ER, 2 HR). In his game against the Mets last August, he lasted 7 and give up 1 ER for the win. The Mets are 2-19 against him. Duda has a HR.

Niese had a rough May (1-4, 5.67 ERA) and hasn’t won since May 9. He had a no decision in Milwaukee his last time out (6 IP, 2 ER). In his loss to the Cubs this year, he gave up 6 runs (4 earned) in 6.1 for the loss. He is 0-2 with a 3.46 ERA so far in June. The Cubs are 31-123 (.252) against him. Fowler is 4-14 with a HR. Rizzo is 2-13.

Lester-less Ross is in for Montero against the lefty, and Niese bats 8th for the Mets. This happened when we played the Reds, too: managers started to follow Maddon’s lead. It makes absolutely no sense to only do it against the Cubs. That is some mojo Maddon has there.

Go Cubs!

Losing streak ends at 5. I wonder if Jason Motte is the new closer or if we will still get more mix and match.

    he's a low-level cubs star in the modern history of the cubs (c.zambrano, k.wood, r.dempster, etc), but that star has dimmed...and has been dimming since 2021.

    2024 has been ugly the whole way and we're only in mid-april.  homers aside (even though there's been 7 in 17ip) he gave up 29 hits in 20 spring innings and 31 in 17 regular season innings.

    he's pretty much only got 2 pitches at this point in his career and the mix isn't fooling anyone.  he threw a noticable amount more curves in his last start to add to the mix and it didn't help his issues.  he don't have many moves left to break out.

    Definitely needs a 10 day stint for the hangnail - have to nip those things in the bud or suffer the consequences (ie, more opponent home run derby, etc)

    Thanks for checking and yeah, that’s a double ouch

  • Sonicwind75 (view)

    Believe you are correct, checked and appears Cubs have a $2.51 million obligation to Barnhart this season per Cot's Contracts.  Also paying Trey Mancini $7mil this season.  Ouch.

    m.busch had 0hr and 2 doubles when he was last at wrigley.

    we'll probably see a few more of his jerseys in the seats when they return tomorrow.

    wonder who will go down for taillon.  hey hendricks, you got a hangnail or something?

  • Eric S (view)

    Nice work by Wesneski with some solid defense behind him and the late tack on runs were welcome. Gladly take a 5-4 West Coast swing, particularly down two key starting pitchers … Now just don’t get swept by the Marlins for Pete’s sake. 

  • crunch (view)

    dansby takes the team lead in SB today after a SB with 2 SB total.  the team has 3.  madrigal has the other one.

    cubs also have 7 triples, 7 players each.

    sure am ready for p.wisdom and m.masterboney to swap roster spots.

  • Eric S (view)

    The fifth inning has not been kind to Wicks this season. Giving up leadoff doubles to Tucker Barnhart is also not good for business. IIRC, the Cubs are on the hook for the majority of Barnhart’s salary this season to add insult to injury (could definitely be wrong here).

    Kris Bryant to IL with low back strain. He’s keeping the Rockies docs busy.
