Jake walks two but damn, we Have Rondon and Chapman for what? I don't care if the pitch count still relatively low, you go with the bullpen there in the beginning of the 8th

I don't have a problem letting Jake start the inning. I mean you don't think Jake, who has one walk all day, is going to walk the seven and eight hitter.

There isn't a chance Montero makes good contact with these pitches if they're in the zone. Best case scenario is a walk.

It's funny but you could make an argument that Arrieta, Rondon, Chapman, and Diaz have been in the top 10% of pitchers this year and this inning clearly wouldn't show it.

Two guys walked to start the inning, thus they're his runs.

Horrible execution during literally every at bat after the Fowler side in all phases of the game. It happens to everyone. Key is to bounce back, not let this loss hang.

Now the crappy defense arrives.....

So if Maddon starts Matusz tomorrow
It going to be pretty much like what we expected today

Hernandez should handle the cubs hitters ok
And
The Mariners should score some runs off of Matusz

So
Cubs should win 3 to 1
