This hour is being brought to you by
Cars for Kids. Uh by It's time for five on it. Rahimi and Croy bring you five topics on their minds today. On 1043 Discord. What is it? Number one.
Quick programming note before we get to question number one, Cubs pet president of baseball operations, Jed Hoyer, will join this very show with Layla Raheemy and Mark Grody one hour from now at one PM. Now here's question number one. With a playoff berth on the line, the Cubs fell to the Marlins 8-2 in extra innings. What was the worst part of the game?
Many things from which to choose if you'd like, but I will stay disciplined and choose one. I will zero in on Edward Cabrera. Um Edward Cabrera, who the Cubs are furiously trying to find a roll for if he's not going to be a starter at this point, comes into the game in the 12th, walks a guy, hits a guy, walks a guy. With the bases loaded. I made it five to two, followed by a couple more hits, and eventually on Edward Cabrera's watch, it is an eight to two ball game. He did not succeed much in his other relief outings for the Cubs, just sort of dramatic and wild the way he was as a starter for the Cubs. So I will say that that is for me the the worst part of the game, seeing that not just Because of that game, and I do not worry the Cubs aren't going to clinch a playoff berth.
It's just, do you have a guy in Edward Cabrera at this point who you can't even have on the playoff roster at this point, let alone experimenting with him in these relief roles? So it's to me that's frightening what you invested in him, what do you expected out of Edward Cabrera? And now things are coming out of my mouth: like, is he even on your Your postseason roster.
Oh no, that's a fair question. Is he even on your postseason roster? And frankly, I think it's one we have to ask Jed Hoyer and he's he's got a lot of time and and his time to decide that, but it's a fair question. Uh I think it's the fact that there were so many pitchers used. You know, once again, Shoney Minaga was a solid outing for him, especially after all we just talked about. You know, he goes five innings, he gives up the one earn run. It was not a home run, which I thought was pretty important too.
What are the highlights of the Cubs’ loss to the Marlins and the worst moments of the game?
But he he had a high pitch count. You know, we talked about it on our group thread. He goes seventy-five pitches after three. That's not okay. So then you bust out what I think is your your A team of of bullpen right here. Savali, Palencia, and Rollison. And then unfortunately, the game goes to extras. They were having trouble scoring runs. And then that's when you bring in Zephyr John, Thielbar, and Cabrera. So after After the day off, when you know you're trying to clinch a postseason spot, when you know that you've only got two more games at home before you gotta go to Boston, we'll ask Jed Hoyer about the plans for the storm as well and how those are probably constantly changing. Nor'easter. Yes. But y you use a lot of your bullpen and you don't wanna gas them.
And unfortunately you had to. So how does how do games two and three shake out? And if you clinch today Does does the Thursday game become the dayest of day lineups? You know, does it become like a let's get weird lineup and you know, everybody who's in there is it's like the relaxation lineup. I I don't know that you can do that when you're trying to still figure out your seating. I still would love to see them play at home for the wild card. I don't want to think about them traveling. But that might be that might be gone too. I don't know.
Cubs, Phillies, Padres, all tied atop the board right now. So many scenarios. Can I give you may I take a moment here in the middle of five on to give you guys some Bears nuggets really quick? I got a few Bears nuggets. These are from uh Courtney Croton and coming out of Hallis Hall. And we'll we'll dig into these more with Herb Howard in a bit. But Tyson Bajant, not at Hallis Hall today as part of Concussion Protocol. Shamar Travel. Turner and Noah Sewell, who are on pup, will begin practicing today. Kyler Gordon's Pup window is also eligible to open today, but Ben Johnson says he has quote nothing to add, close quote, to Gordon's status.
