Writer's Note: The daily selections of the three Heroes and three Goats are based solely on the top three and bottom three WPA scores for the game. The selections are not based on my subjective opinion.
The Ramirez Catalyst of Game 102: With two on and two out in the bottom of the second, Chris Coghlan drops a single into short right-center field, scoring Javier Baez and David Ross and putting the first two Cub runs on the board. WPA impact: +.185.
THE THREE HEROES:
- Superhero - Jon Lester (.201). Navigated his way through a lot of baserunners in the first three innings before things settled down.
- Hero - Chris Coghlan (.162). All he needed was the single in the second; the walks in his final two plate appearances were just for looks as far as the WPA overlords were concerned.
- Sidekick - Kris Bryant (.124). That's three straight third-place finishes for Bryant, doing it in impressive fashion on Friday by getting on base in all five of his plate appearances.
THE THREE GOATS: It wouldn't be a Lester start without a podium bump as he racks up his 10th of the season thanks to his -.034 hitting. Friday's podium bump led to a pretty interesting podium situation, though.
- Billy Goat - Addison Russell (-.071). It's gotta a lonely feeling being the only guy to go 0-for-5 while everyone else in the starting lineup gets on base at least once. And that's including Lester.
- Goat - Anthony Rizzo (-.044). He did drive in three with a double down the third-base line, but it was already a 6-0 game by the time that he did it. That and he was 0-for-3 going into that plate appearance.
- Kid - Mike Montgomery (.000). So, what's the interesting Goat podium situation, you ask? Well, if you look closely at the charts, there was a four-way tie for the next slot at .000 thanks to the blowout. That left Montgomery, Justin Grimm, Willson Contreras, and Matt Szczur as potential candidates, with Montgomery taking the final spot by executive decision for giving up the only Mariner run of the game in his two innings of work.
RANKINGS THROUGH GAME 102: With Lester's Superhero and Rizzo's Goat appearance, the lead at the top of the chart narrows to one-half of a point.
