GDT 5/23/19 Philadelphia Phillies (Nola) @ Chicago Cubs (Lester)

[LoneStarPhan]

Phillies cash in on Cubs' shoddy play in the field plus some good hits. Three runs are unearned.

[bkeich]

It really seems like Segura has more than 5 homers. He has been great so far, I am actually surprised that the number is that low. I was against this trade as I still thought Crawford provided more long term value, but the way he has played seems like I was very wrong.

Only real issue with him is that he does everything he can to avoid a walk. He probably wont maintain a BA in the .320s but if he can just stay somewhere near his career BA of .288 he at least has an average OBP.

A rough inning for Nola. The lead off walk but some hard hit balls for hits as well. I hope he comes back with a couple strong innings.

Philadelphia Phillies 8 - Chicago Cubs 3

[LoneStarPhan]

Herrera didn't look good at the plate again, but he dribbles the ball into play toward first and gets another run in. So a productive out at least. The 4th run the Phillies have scored without a hit driving the runner in.
