[CyYoung31]

What happened to taking it easy?

 

[The Tariff King]

Expecting a big save from Kenley.

 

[Garmel]

Expecting a big save from Iglesias.

FIFY

 

[msstate7]

Cubs up 3-0

 

[Slippyjms]

What happened to taking it easy?

I thought about it but there’s still too much at stake to rest now. It’s time to start another hot streak.

That said if we lose tonight I will take that as a sign I need a few days off.

 

[Garmel]

According to DOB Strider will pitch tonight instead of Wright. Wright is experiencing arm fatigue again. They believe he can go tomorrow.

 

[Garmel]

Cubs up 3-0

4-0 now.

 

[Runnin]

Last year Snit stuck with Will Smith, who buckled down, never gave up another run and brought a championship to Atlanta.

 

[Garmel]

4-0 now.

5-0.

 

[msstate7]

5-0.

Tonight is looking like a must win

This is getting concerning.

So Wright is a Game 4 Starter then for the playoffs. Can’t expect short rest from him.

 

[Garmel]

This is getting concerning.

Yeah, Wright has never pitched a full season before.

 

[Garmel]

Bassitt's out of the game now. I can't believe how the Cubs destroyed him.

 

[msstate7]

Yeah, Wright has never pitched a full season before.

Neither has strider. We really could use a good soroka or Ian to give guys a break

 

[The Tariff King]

Glad Snit tried to extend Wright while he was getting hammered in Oakland just to try and get him through 5 IP.

 

[Garmel]

True. I wonder if Strider will have have the same problem since most of his power comes from his tree trunk legs. Against a bad team I wouldn't mind seeing Elder again.

Word is neither is being considered a candidate to return. Anderson’s been worse since going back and Soroka is not where he needs to be.

Maybe Snit shoudl start doing bullpen games again.

He was getting decent at it last year.
