Serious [Serious] Division Discussion Thread - The Easts

9 Upvotes

**A reminder that these threads are for more serious discussions.**

How this works: each Thursday we will discuss a different pair of divisions, rotating between the Easts, Centrals, and Wests. This is your chance to catch up on what is going on in each division and discuss them with other fans.

This week we are discussing the AL and NL Easts.

Cubs 2-1 victory is their first win scoring 2 runs or less since May 14th

425 Upvotes

They have 5 such victories on the year: two 2-0 shutouts, one 1-0 shutout, and two 2-1 wins.

In case anyone is curious, they only have 6 wins scoring 3 runs. That's 11 wins, on the year, scoring 3 runs or less.

Yeah folks, our pitching sucks.

26-27 isn’t even a very small sample size. if they don’t hold on to one of the top two seeds and are overtaken by Atlanta (or Philadelphia if they pass the Braves) they could very easily lose a best of 3

Logan Henderson has outpitched* Tarik Skubal in every start since the trade deadline.

127 Upvotes

*in their respective first starts after the deadline, each went 6 innings of 1 run ball. Henderson had more K’s and fewer walks.

in each of their 5 starts since, Henderson has a lower ERA in each outing. the only start Skubal went longer than Henderson was 8/22, when Henderson gave up 1 run in 6 IP while Skubal gave up 3 runs in 7 IP.

The Detroit Tigers insisted upon Logan Henderson in a potential Skubal-Brewers deal, in addition to a haul of prospects.
