"Colin Rea is tasked with filling in for Cade Horton, who will undergo season-ending surgery to repair the UCL in his right elbow. That makes two years in a row for Rea, who is no stranger to Tommy John surgery himself."
"The Cubs' bats were steaming hot yesterday, but now they might need to change things up to throw some cold water on Joe Boyle. The 26-year-old righty looks like a completely different pitcher from just three years ago."
The Cubs showcased a powerful offense, scoring in six innings to tie their series against the Rays. Colin Rea replaces Cade Horton, who will have season-ending UCL surgery. Rea has a history of elbow issues, including Tommy John surgery. He was previously traded to the Marlins but returned to the Padres due to undisclosed medical issues. The Cubs maintain a similar lineup, with key players like Nico Hoerner and Michael Busch. They face Joe Boyle, a pitcher who has significantly altered his throwing mechanics over the past three years.
