Cubs Recap Padres 5, Cubs 1: Mostly pointless

After the Cubs have returned from Japan and have lost two games, they now have to play five games that don’t count because the schedule says this. But it is difficult to find a lot of point for today’s game that was a glorified minor League game as far as the Cubs are concerned. In the end, the Padres drove to a simple 5-1 win against mainly Cubs Minor Leaguers. And because AL is still in Japan, you get the full experience of today’s game because the Minor League type (ME) makes the summary.

The CUBS starting line -up had only two players who made them to Tokyo and these two – Shortstop Vidal Bruján and the third Baseman Gage Workman – overall an inning replacement replacement in these two games (Bruján). The only forecast that played in this game was the second Baseman Nico Hoerner, who celebrated his spring training debut when he worked back from the forearm surgery. So if you are looking for a bright sign from today’s game, it is played. It is pretty irrelevant that he went 0 for 3. Hoerner will undoubtedly begin the season on the injured list, but this is the first step towards his return to the list.

If you are looking for another bright spot, it started Pitcher and Cubs’ Top Pitching Prospect Cade Horton, who also injured an injury that cost him most of the last season. Horton threw two goalless innings and only allowed an infield single. He fought a bit with the control, went two and struck one. There was no video for this game, but the radio stations of the Padres said that Horton’s Fastball speed was 95-96 miles per hour, as it was before it was transported to Iowa and the beginning of his shoulder problems.

In the meantime, the crime of the Cubs could not do anything against Padres’ starter Michael King. Bruján performed the game with a single left field. Nothing after that. King appeared ready for the regular season, went five innings, scored four and did not allow a basic series to Bruján’s Leadoff -Single. Then Randy Vásquez went the last four innings for San Diego and withdrew the first six batteries with which the catcher Moises Ballesteros with a solo homerun led the bottom of eighth place. Unfortunately, the game was not transferred on TV, so we have no highlights of ball yesters’ Homerun. He hit it to the left to the left field, which is another sign of ball yesters’.

Since we don’t have a video of Ballesteros’ Homerun, here is the representation of an artist.

Hayden McGeary took the bottom of the ninth place with a double from Vásquez, but that was today for Cubs base runners.

Brad Keller, who fights around the last squad square in the Bullpen, had a mixed trip. He allowed the first run in the game in the fourth inning. His last line was a run with two goals over 1.2 innings. Keller excluded three and didn’t work, which is a good sign for him. So mixed.

This run from Keller scored after Luke Little Little Little, who allowed the first two batteries with which he was exposed to, allowed two Infield -Singles. Little allowed three hits over 1.1 innerings, two goals and didn’t go any. Little Still still has small options for the league and he seems to be intended to start the season in Iowa, but is probably still in the long -term plans of the Cubs this season.

The rest of the Cubs Pitchers today, however, is probably not. Trevor Richards, who, who was honest, even forgot to the Cubs, gave Tyler Wade a Homerun with two runs in his one Inning of Work. Phil Bickford gave up a run in his inning and then Brandon Hughes allowed a run in his inning. Only Brook’s Kreiske managed to keep the Padres from stepping down the side to the top on the ninth time.

Tomorrow the Cubs will take over the central time at 3:05 a.m. in a Rockies team from Split-Squad Rockies in Sloan Park. This game is also not transferred on television, but there will be a radio show from Cubs on 670 of the score
