Today\u2019s roster move: Here<\/p>\n
Tuesday notes…<\/p>\n
\n
TAKING THE FIFTH:<\/strong> The Cubs scored all five of their runs last night in the fifth inning. They have outscored their opponents by 25 runs in the fifth, 40-15. Their next-largest differential in an inning is 19, in the second (34-15). They are +11 in the first (26-15) and ninth (17-6). (Courtesy BCB\u2019s JohnW53)<\/li>\n
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NICO HOERNER:<\/strong> The Cubs second baseman turns 28 today.<\/li>\n
DANSBY KEEPS IT GOING:<\/strong> Dansby Swanson, last 18 games since April 22: .354\/.417\/.662 (23-for-65) with three doubles, a triple, five home runs, 12 RBI and 17 runs scored. He also has an active 13-game on-base streak.<\/li>\n
EVERYONE DIGS THE LONG BALL:<\/strong> The Cubs are currently the only MLB team with three players with 10 or more home runs (Pete Crow-Armstrong, Seiya Suzuki and Kyle Tucker). Overall they rank third in MLB with 61 home runs (Yankees, 74 and Dodgers, 64).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Here are today\u2019s particulars.<\/p>\n
The Cubs lineup was not available at posting time. Please check BCB social media for the Cubs lineup.<\/p>\n
Marlins lineup:<\/p>\n
Ben Brown, RHP vs. Valente Bellozo, RHP<\/h2>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nthin white spacer<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Ben Brown\u2019s last two starts have been pretty good (total 11 innings, three runs allowed, 13 strikeouts). Hopefully he can continue to build on that.<\/p>\n

His only career appearance against the Marlins was two scoreless relief innings in the second game of a doubleheader April 20, 2024. Of the current Marlins, only Jesus Sanchez has faced him, and Brown struck him out.<\/p>\n
More just like that, please.<\/p>\n
Valente Bellozo made 13 starts for the Marlins last year and has made four this year and the results have been decent: 3.63 ERA, 2.1 bWAR. He\u2019s not a strikeout pitcher, as his rate is just 15 percent.<\/p>\n
Of his 13 starts last year, one was against the Cubs, Aug. 24 at Miami. Bellozo allowed six runs (five earned) in 4x innings, including homers by Seiya Suzuki and Pete Crow-Armstrong.<\/p>\n

More just like that, please.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
