Cubs 5, Dodgers 2: Hayden Wesneski, your table is readyRemembering, of course, that Spring Training stats don’t generally mean anything, Hayden Wesneski went out and made a statement Saturday afternoon against the Dodgers. Wesneski faced 12 Dodgers and retired all of them, four by strikeout, and the Cubs smashed three home runs on their way to a 5-2 win over L. A. Here are his four strikeouts [VIDEO]. Wesneski was also helped out by his defense. Check out this play by Dansby Swanson [VIDEO]. It’s a small sample size, and yes, it’s Spring Training.
PT. The Dodgers have won or tied in nine straight contests after defeating the Los Angeles Angels on Friday thanks to a walk-off walk. L. A. holds a 7-3 record, good for the second in Cactus League, and they have excelled as a unit in limiting runs allowed. Noah Syndergaard is slated to make his third appearance (second start) and looks to build off of his prior outing against the San Diego Padres which saw the velocity on his fastball tick up to 94 mph, a focus for him leading up to the season.
Spring Training Preview: Dodgers Playing Split-Squad Games Against Cubs & GiantsThe Los Angeles Dodgers are in split-squad action for the first time this spring, playing a home game against the Chicago Cubs and facing the San Francisco Giants at Scottsdale Stadium. First pitch for both games is set for 12:05 p. m.
It cleared the bullpen in left field and also a patio area behind the pen, an estimated 460 feet. After a slow start this spring, Morel has now homered in back-to-back games. This doesn’t necessarily mean Morel doesn’t need some Triple-A time, but he’s certainly looked good the last two days. The Dodgers made it 4-1 in the bottom of the fifth on a solo homer by Josh Outman off Anthony Kay. After that, Michael Rucker threw 1⅔ scoreless innings. Brendon Little finished up the seventh and allowed the Dodgers a single run in the eighth before being removed for Cam Sanders, who wrapped up that inning with a ground out. In the top of the ninth, the Cubs got another solo homer, this one from Jake Slaughter.

Syndergaard was stellar, notching two strikeouts over three perfect frames, not requiring more than nine pitchers per inning. The positive start was a huge plus for the 30-year-old hoping to have a breakout season with the Dodgers, expressing the belief he’s ‘trending in the right direction. ’ Evan Phillips, Caleb Ferguson, Alex Vesia and Jimmy Nelson are also scheduled to pitch against the Cubs. Meanwhile, Dylan Covey is starting against the Giants, and Yency Almonte is due to make his 2023 debut in that game as well. The Cubs hand the ball to Hayden Wesneski, and the Giants are starting Alex Cobb. The Dodgers lineup hasn’t quite broken out this spring, scratching across 63 runs as a unit thus far.
Sanders wrapped things up by striking out the side in the bottom of the inning. The win improved the Cubs’ Cactus League record to 10-5. A reminder that Daylight Saving time starts overnight tonight, so following most Cubs games the rest of the spring will be an hour later than they have been up to now. Sunday’s game at Sloan Park against the Brewers will thus begin at 3:05 p.
But Wesneski has now thrown 8⅔ innings in three starts, allowed five hits and a walk, one unearned run and struck out 11. Given that and his really good work in six appearances (four starts) last September, I’d think Wesneski has nailed down the fifth starter spot, at least until Kyle Hendricks comes back. Here’s Wesneski commenting on his outing: The game went scoreless into the top of the fifth, and then the Cubs started smashing long balls. Yan Gomes, Mike Tauchman and Christopher Morel all went deep. Here are all three dingers [VIDEO]. The homer by Morel was particularly impressive.
Miguel Rojas and James Outman are tied for the team lead with seven hits this spring, both are penciled in against the Cubs. While J. D. Martinez is slowly coming out of his funk as he’s notched a base hit in three straight games. Dodgers lineup (vs. Cubs) SS: Miguel Rojas 3B: Max Muncy LF: J.
