I'm good with that. With Wisdom back you needed the lefthanded bat more.

Now which pitcher is going on the IL? That's the only way Wesneski is eligible to be recalled.

It's gotta be Hendricks to the IL right? Coming off an off-day where I'm sure they sat down and had a little chat with him.

I gotta say I didn't fully understand why Cooper was here.

Hendricks and Alzolay to the IL for Wesneski and Little?

Give Alzolay 15 days to breathe and fix whatever mechanical issue he's having?

Time for Bellinger to start earning that 3 spot.

I hope you mean +1.5, or you got screwed.

 

[Cyforce]

With Smyly and Hendricks down it will be interesting to see who steps in as 5th starter. It's rumored Brown is getting a shot to close so that leaves Thompson and Wesneski.

No. I took cubs to win by 2. -1.5

+100 when I took it

 

[NorthCyd]

+100 when I took it

Well if you feel real good about it you can get it at +181 now.

Anybody else stream the Marquee App? My 9th inning just started but on the Cubs website it's already gone final.

Yeah it was weird. I got the notification from marquee app on my phone with 1 out in the top of the 9th on my tv

 

[Cyforce]

So who gets the start this weekend. Wesneski or Thompson? I guess Brown is still a possibility if they treat yesterday as throwing between starts.

 

[CYdTracked]

I'm guessing Wesneski. Thompson isn't really stretched out and has been mostly working out of the bullpen anymore.

 

[TClone99]

My heavens has Ben Brown been looking good or what?!

 

[Cyforce]

I'm guessing Wesneski. Thompson isn't really stretched out and has been mostly working out of the bullpen anymore.

BN really doesn't know either but here's an article addressing the subject.

Was Ben Brown’s Usage Last Night a Hint for His Role Going Forward?

Who is the fifth starter and who's the "eighth" man in the bullpen - Hayden Wesneski or Ben Brown?
