Struggles in loss Saturday
Webb (1-2) took the loss and a blown save Saturday against the Blue Jays, allowing three runs on three hits while retiring only two batters in relief.
Análisis
The right-hander was the second pitcher used in the eighth inning, as he came on after Caleb Thielbar walked a batter and allowed a single to start the frame. Webb still had an opportunity to protect a 5-3 Chicago lead, but he allowed a pair of RBI singles, then served up a three-run home run to Kazuma Okamoto to ultimately take the loss. Webb recorded a save Wednesday, which was Chicago's first save opportunity since Daniel Palencia (elbow) landed on the injured list. It remains to be seen who the Cubs will turn to next after this stumble.

Records save Wednesday
Webb allowed a solo home run but still managed to secure the save in Wednesday's 8-6 win over the Rockies. He struck out one.
Análisis
Staked to an 8-5 lead, Webb allowed a home run to Kyle Karros in the top of the ninth inning, but the righty buckled down to secure his second save of the season. Webb got the first save opportunity in the absence of Daniel Palencia, who was placed on the injured list Tuesday due to right elbow inflammation. It's unclear how long Palencia will ultimately be out, which could make Webb a good speculative add for fantasy managers, in the meantime.
