☀️ Game Day
Cubs vs Los Angeles Dodgers

First pitch: 4:10 PM ET

UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium

Cubs playoff odds 73%

Shota v Wroblesksisijsjski

Shota has elite chase and expected results

Wrobleski gets barreled and doesn’t strikeout hitters

Cubs will need excellent contact management, not patience today

☀️ Game Day
Cubs vs Los Angeles Dodgers

First pitch: 7:15 PM ET

UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium

Cubs playoff odds 73%

Rea vs Sasaki

Sasaki enters with a 6.11 ERA and significant control problems. High velocity but hit hard and peripherals aren’t great.

Cubs can manufacture pressure with their disciplined approach + poor Sasaki command

Has struggled against lefties this year

Go #Cubs ⚾️

[Ballpark Brief @ballparkbrief]

Me, you and your Uncle could be in the Cubs bullpen and you bet we’re throwing 3 scoreless

Cubs vs Dodgers - in LA

9:15 pm central

67°F, Partly Cloudy, Wind 10 mph SSW

Cubs playoff odds 71%

9 game winning streak

Jameson Taillon (73 trust score) vs Emmet Sheehan

Taillon is Maddux-type. Precise location, doesn't need plus stuff.

Sheehan will make you whiff, but peripherals are very bad.

Cubs' lineup should find exploitable weaknesses

@TheBlogfines Not an oblique!

[Ballpark Brief @ballparkbrief]

@CarlsBeef At least it wasn’t an oblique

[Ballpark Brief @ballparkbrief]

Cubs defeat Philadelphia 8-7 in what became a slugfest

Cabrera's walk rate was elite: 0 BB across 7 IP

Great outing Riley Martin (trust score: 71)

Bullpen was due for regression.

Sei-ya x3

I was told Busch can’t hit lefties

Thank you Dansby

The Cubs generated 18 hits and 3 home runs with only 7 strikeouts

Cabrera v Sanchez

Sanchez legit ace: great metrics and underlying peripherals

Matchup hinges on whether Cabrera can replicate his dominance

Happ dominates Sanchez
