Yesterday I mentioned that starting pitching is the Cubs big issue: Here are the numbers for Cubs first inning runs allowed 2015: 75 in 162 games (42 with 1+) 2016: 71 in 162 games (40 with 1+) 2017: 80 in in just 88 games (38 with 1+) !!!! The season is just half way done and the Cubs have given up more than the both whole seasons. So who is to blame on first inning runs? Jon Lester: 8 of 19 total starts, 22 runs, 5-3 Jake Arrieta: 6 of 18 total starts, 15 runs, 3-3 John Lackey: 10 of 17 total starts, 13 runs, 4-6 Kyle Hendricks: 4 of 11 total starts, 7 runs, 3-1 Eddie Butler: 3 of 11 total starts, 5 runs, 1-2 Brett Anderson: 4 of 6 total starts, 13 runs, 2-2 Mike Montgomery: 2 of 6 total starts, 5 runs, 0-2 |
