Lester went 0-3 with a 5.74 ERA in June, including his loss to LAD (4 IP, 4 ER, 4 BB) in his last time out. He hasn’t won since May 16. Historically, June has been his best month (3.41 ERA). The Mets are 22-83 (.265) against Lester. Only two Mets, Granderson (11-40, 2 HR) and Cuddyer is (5-19) have more than 6 ABs against him.

Colon lost to the Brewers (6 IP, 4 ER, 10 H) in his last appearance. He had a great start to the season, going 5-1 with a 3.31 in April but has been less effective since then. He went 1-3 with a 5.40 in June. Against the Cubs in his career, Colon is 0-2 with a 4.73 ERA. Castro is 2-3 against him, and a handful of others have a few ABs but no hits. Rizzo is 0-3.

If the Cubs offense is going to get it in gear, this might be a good game to do it in, although this line-up does not inspire the greatest confidence.

Go Cubs!

Jesse Rogers ‏@ESPNChiCubs Good news for Cubs prospect Duane Underwood Jr. No serious damage to elbow it sounds like.

You know your offense is kicking ass when you pop-bunt into a double play in the 8th inning of a scoreless game. Fuck a duck.

7ip 3h 1bb 8k - 0r/er for lester...no runs scored by the cubs so it's a no decision. good turnaround. hopefully july will be much better.

It's July and we're ahead of the Giants for the 2nd wild card spot! Been a while since we've made it to July and still competitive.

I thought Castro's game winner yesterday - another game winner for our much maligned hero who also had another late inning error, was interesting. He clearly was trying to just slap the ball through the infield as if hoping nobody could make a play.

    I don’t buy that. They had been doing that for years.

    They did it with Matt Holliday. They did it with John Lackey. They did it with Mark Mulder. They did it with Jason Heyward, who had a great year for them. I’m sure there’s more but those come to mind immediately.

    I attribute it more to a breakdown in what they’re doing in terms of development than a culture thing.

  • TarzanJoeWallis (view)

    They won those trades and sacrificed their culture. That’s exactly their problem.

  • Dolorous Jon Lester (view)

    The other part that’s kind of crazy is they made two very high profile trades, one for Goldschmidt and one for Arenado, and they very clearly won those trades. They just haven’t been able to develop players the last handful of years the way they usually do.

    I guess the moral there is it’s hard to stay on top of your game and be good at what you do in perpetuity.

    Marmol was extended at the beginning of the year. Two years I believe.

    Craig Counsell doesn’t have a timetable for Cody Bellinger who technically has two cracked ribs on his right side. CT scan showed it today.

  • Dolorous Jon Lester (view)

    Thought it might have been David Peralta given the open 40 man spot and how PCA has played so far. 

  • Dolorous Jon Lester (view)

    I hope they keep Mozeliak a few more years. Marmol too!

  • crunch (view)

    wow, counsell coming with the early lineup.  rarity.

    PCA called up.

  • crunch (view)

    welp...

    bellinger...fractured rib.

    a not-very-ready PCA will probably be called up when it would be much better for him to be in AAA getting regular ABs.
