GDT 4/26/25 Philadelphia Phillies (Luzardo) @ Chicago Cubs (Brown, Be)

[LoneStarPhan]

An error really hurts the pitcher.

I mean at this point they probably should be used to it. Daily occurrence.

Turner’s contract runs much longer than he will be playing short. Probably they make the change for next season, but maybe they should do it sooner.

Turner moves to second, third,or outfield? We will see.

Justin Turner singles on a line drive to right fielder Nick Castellanos.

[zambonir]

Nothing wrong with giving Turner a "blow" as they say given Sosa, but they need him to be playing/hitting more. If he's not this team's third-best hitter the team's going nowhere.

Dansby Swanson grounds into a force out, third baseman Alec Bohm to second baseman Bryson Stott. Justin Turner out at 2nd. Dansby Swanson to 1st.

Cubs challenged (play at 1st): Nico Hoerner grounds into a double play, shortstop Trea Turner to second baseman Bryson Stott to first baseman Bryce Harper. Dansby Swanson out at 2nd. Nico Hoerner out at 1st.

Move him to 3rd. Improve the offense and defense at the same time. Kill two birds with one stone.

Trade Bohm for a roll the dice reliever. Maybe it works out, maybe it doesn't but you're not rushing anything.

Risking, mistype.

Harper, Sosa, Stott, Turner for the rest of the year. Bring up Kemp to plug the utility role.

[LoneStarPhan]

Luzardo goes six innings. The error and the extra 19 pitches likely cost him an inning. The bullpen will need three innings today.

[EastFallowfield]

The radio guys weren't convinced it would be possible to homer at Wrigley today.

Alec Bohm

Swinging strike (90.7 mph cutter)
Ball (82.2 mph sweeper)

Alec Bohm grounds out, shortstop Dansby Swanson to first baseman Justin Turner.

[HopeSpringsEternal]

Probably they make the change for next season, but maybe they should do it sooner.

Given the long-term contract with Turner, I would wait to make a defensive switch in the offseason and make sure he’s ready to perform well at his new position from day 1. Also, we’ll know more about possible replacements and holes to fill during the offseason.

Harper switched positions late in the season when he came back from the elbow with little preparation. And immediately was good there.

Short to third is not a tough transition. Turner's a big boy.
