I don't think Servais has said anything officially yet. Here is Seattle's beat writers take on the situation. There are most tweets in the thread, if you wish to look through them. Honestly, Seattle's is probably a pen I would just avoid at the moment. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

nlm 478 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 (edited) Cishek probably. But this is Joe Maddon, so expect a committee Edited May 8, 2019 by nlm Link to post Share on other sites
swingbatter 210 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 I watch all of the cubs games, i'd rank the order of pickups as: cishek kintzler brach Cishek got the last save when Strop wasn't available and was very fired up after the last out, I think Joe liked that. But Joe will probably mix and match a little. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

But Joe will probably mix and match a little. just to make things more interesting, cishek has pitched 3 of the last 4 games, so if a save opp were to come up tonight, Joe might not go to him to avoid overworking him. Still think Cishek will get the most saves until Strop returns, but with Maddon you never know. Edited May 8, 2019 by swingbatter 2 Link to post Share on other sites

SpecialFNK 1,485 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 without someone emerging as the option for Seattle, Hunter Strickland could be that option when he returns. Quote Hunter Strickland (lat) has been cleared to start throwing again on Monday. Advice: Strickland has been on the disabled list since March 31 because of a Grade 2 strain of his right lat, and was transferred to the 60-day injured list a day later. That means the earliest he could come back is at the end of May, but we typically don't see pitchers come back from this type of injury that quickly. That being said, the fact that he's cleared to throw does give him a chance at returning before June ends, and there's a good chance he will reclaim the closing spot with the Mariners shortly after, maybe even immediately. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites
