Cardinals @ Cubs: Flaherty vs Montgomery (Game 162)

Submitted by CTSteve on

STL (88-73): RHP Jack Flaherty (8-8, 3.16)
CHC (94-67): LHP Mike Montgomery (5-6, 3.99)
First pitch: 2:20pmCST

Montgomery gave up 5 ER in 4 innings and lost to the Pirates on Tuesday. In four games (two starts) against the Cardinals this season, he's 0-1 with a 3.60. Overall, they are 22-77 (.286) against him.

Flaherty had a no-decision against the Brewers his last time out (5.1 IP, 3 ER). In two starts against the Cubs this season, he's 1-0 with an 0.90 ERA. On the road, he's 4-4 with a 3.35. For their careers, the Cubs are 4-35 (.114)—are you flipping serious? Almora is 2-4, and Contreras has a HR. Bryant has the other hit. Advantage Cardinals.

Go Cubs! Go Tigers!

"Maddon will be scoreboard watching Brewers game which may influence how he uses relievers. "The bullpen is the primary factor there with the potential for a game [Monday]. You don't want to overuse your bullpen.""

...this formatting update on the site has the text in this box really small and it tries to create links to twitter links + displays them weird from a cut/paste with a lot of empty lines...so i'm just gonna go with quoting the text.

I have to work, and won't be able to do even a single game-recap in regular season, boo, but aspire to do a few along the way in our deep playoff run.  Join me in parachat, at least, as I work and watch the game?  We need some RALLY CAPS I think...

Not particularly timely, but my wife just asked me why “Fasty McFasterson” wasn’t in. I had to explain to her the dynamics of a late inning pinch runner. But I really think that’s what I’m going to call Terrance Gore from now on.

    bellinger wins comeback player of the year.  the AL winner was liam hendricks and his 5ip before he got tommy john...setting himself up for a 2025 shot at the award.

    I hope that Perlaza goes on to have a successful career.  On most Cubs teams prior to the current administration, he would have been one of their more highly ranked prospects.  As far as the others are concerned, one or more may well go on to be much better than expected, but unfortunately there is no way to tell which one at the present time.  You can't keep everyone.

    s.gray signs with the cards...3/75m

    Another one of the nine Cubs post-2023 Rule 9 minor league 6YFA has signed, as RHP Carlos Guzman (acquired from the Tigers for Zack McKinstry at the end of Spring Training) signed a 2024 minor league contract with the Mets. 

     

    So RHRP Yovanny Cruz (SD), C-INF P. J. Higgins (CIN), and now Carlos Guzman (NYM) have already signed 2024 minor league contracts with new MLB organizations, and OF Yonathan Perlaza is headed for Korea (Hanhwa Eagles).

    ...and back to 3rd for another game.  at this point i'm gonna hang back and when/if he actually plays 1st then i'll find it notable.  i am glad he's playing a good amount of 3rd, though...give the club one more good look at him there.  shrug

    morel played SS last night (no errors)...hit a homer and a double.  he's got 2 of both in 19PA.

    e.escobar was throwing 95-97mph on his fastball in 2023.

    One more thing about Edwin Escobar. Even though he had accrued less than one year of MLB Service Time prior to signing with Nippon Ham in 2017 (he ended up eventually with Yokohama), he will have Article XIX-A rights by virtue of the seven seasons he spent in Japan. So he will be essentially locked on the 40-man roster (or at least he can't be outrighted without his consent), and he will be a FA whenever his contract expires.
