Hammel had another short outing (65 pitches over 5.2, 1 ER) against the Brewers on Wednesday and did not factor in the 3-2 win. He’s 5-2 with a 2.23 in night games. The Tigers are 10-44 (.227) against him. Cabrera is 4-11.
Sanchez had a good June (3-1, 2.63), including his win over the Cubs (7.2 IP, 0 ER), but he’s been sliding since. In his three August starts, he’s 0-2 with a 7.50 ERA. The Cubs are 17-86 (.198) against him. Montero has the most ABs but is only 3-20 with a HR.
Go Cubs!
