Tyler Chatwood Does Not Make It Out of Third Inning Sunday
7 years agoChicago Cubs starter Tyler Chatwood lasted 2 2/3 innings Sunday versus the Giants with three earned runs. Chatwood walked five and struck out three in the outing and now sits at a 4.10 ERA and 1.76 WHIP with 44 strikeouts in 48 1/3 innings. Chatwood is fairly lucky to have even that ERA at this point. The walks have been a major cause for a concern and there could be some regression setting in, as Chatwood has only lasted 2 2/3 innings in two straight starts now. A 1.76 WHIP is typically that of someone who no longer has a job as a starter. The strikeouts and move away from Coors have helped, but Chatwood is hard to trust right now.
