What our Post expert thinks about Padres vs. Cubs

In six postseason appearances, Darvish is 3-2 with a 2.56 ERA and 30 strikeouts in 38.2 innings.

As for Taillon, he pitched two postseason games for the Yankees in 2022, posting a 6.23 ERA in 4 1/3 innings.

Darvish’s ability to miss bats and deliver in big games contrasts with Taillon’s pitchability — and consistency in the zone — and that tension will be essential to how Game 3 unfolds.
