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?

    Folks, I've known Richard Lovelady since he was an 18 yr old Freshman at East Ga State College in Swainsboro, Ga.

    I was the WBB Coach at EGSC and Richard was their prize recruit from outside of Hinesville, Ga.

    My roommate was the Pitching Coach there.

    Richard showed up a skinny, loose lipped, 83mph Lefty. Pretty good basketball player actually. 

    My roommate became the head coach.

    Richard came back from a minor injury for his Sophmore year a more serious man. He hit 90mph and started mowing GA JUCO hitters down. It was really fun to watch.

    He was the first D1 signee for EGSC baseball (school had only had athletics for five yrs at that point). He went to Kennesaw St and became their closer. One yr later, he hit 100mph and KC drafted him in the 10th Rd. 

    He lost the high velo with a surgery a while back.

    It's so cool to see him in MLB. And now he's a Cub!! It's crazy to realize I actually "know" a Cub.

    He's a legit good guy.

    Easy to root for!!!

    Tim. Thanks for remembering Lee Elia Day. It will always be one of the most epic rants in all sports.  It took about 3 seconds to recognize him from your picture but I  did get it right. 

    Now that Les Grobstein is no longer with us, that might contribute to this grand piece of Cubbery fading.

    Just like fine wine, it should be savored...unedited. 40 years, wow.

    Does he have any options left, Phil?
