[PickSix]

Chunky Monkey should try using the whole field a bit more.

Should have gotten more there.

Liking what ive seen from Chavez so far..

Looks like a guy taking advantage of an opportunity on a winning team ..

He also a guy who can add and bring some veteran leadership to the bullpen..
Guys can pick his brain a bit while sitting in pen

Nicely manufactured run, Happ.

He's the spark for the Cubs

It would be great to see Rizzo and Contreras get/stay hot.

 

[chibears55]

Way to get some insurance runs..

Gotta be refreshing as hitters to see a guy like Chavez come in and mow down the top of the order to preserve a lead..
Get you pumped up to hit afterwards

I'm tired of hearing Kasper talk about Carpenter.

Better not burn Chavez out those 58 plus innings already are going to make him useless in October.

Brewers lost...
Cubs picked up a full game over the weekend, now up 3 1/2 games

If a guy is pushing a 1.30 or lower WHIP in the majors you will get good results in general. You will get a hick up here and there but you are not juicing the opertunites as much

He has a 0 whip so far with the cubs..lol
9 up 9 down

Very Small sample but id say he could be taking advantage of an opportunity here with the cubs to pitch well and get into the postseason..
Lol..
He looked pretty sharp

296 PA
SO: 35.5%
BB: 16.6%

Hit: 21.3%
Ball out in play: 26.6%

So his contact rate is at 47.9%

But wRC+ 123 which is ranked #73 with players over 100PA.

On the Cubs that is after Bryant, Baez, Schwarber and Contreras. Ahead of Zobrist, Almora, Heyward, Rizzo

So make out of it as you will. He has good and bad going on.
