Meghan Montemurro writes: 'Recently, the Cubs’ baserunning aggression has resulted in too many outs. There is a fine line between smartly taking an extra base and not correctly reading the situation or individual strengths on the basepaths'.
It did not take long for Chicago Cubs infielder Zach McKinstry to learn how his new team approaches baserunning.
Twice Franmil Reyes cost the Cubs an out in Monday’s 5-4 loss. In the fourth inning, he tried to go first-to-third on Nico Hoerner’s single, and Blue Jays right fielder Ramiel Tapia threw him out. Reyes again cost the Cubs in the 11th when he tried to take second on a bloop single to right field and was easily thrown out.
Ross stated the obvious about the 6-foot-5, 265-pound Reyes, who predominately is a designated hitter at this point in his career: He’s more of a base-to-base runner. The mistakes on the basepaths have put the Cubs among the worst baserunning teams in the majors. They rank second in outs on base , including 18 at second and 14 at third. Their 18 outs made at home are second most. Those numbers do not include caught stealings, forceouts or pickoffs.
