I guess this is a good thing to hear to give us optimism he can be 75-80% of the pitcher he was post trade for a full year.

Cole you gave up 6 home runs in September too.

Get out of here with your facts, nerd

[Sammy Sofa]

Yeah, homeboy was showing all kinds of warning signs that he was still the same bum-ass he was before the Cubs got him down the stretch. This'll likely turn out to be another expensive Theo pitching botch that just makes the Ricketts even more miserly.

2019 Hamels is gonna be Mike Montgomery, basically, I think.

The Cubs are going to finish in 3rd place, aren’t they?

Doubtful

“We like our team” sounds a lot like a Hendry offseason.

4th?

They’re still the best team, the margin has been cut down but they’re still the best and if things go remotely

close to plan they aren’t finishing horsefeathering third or lower.

Why so serious?

[Hairyducked Idiot]

They finished second last year and apparently are ok with that because they changed absolutely nothing. So I will guess they finish second again.

This starting rotation is basically a grenade with the pin just barely hanging on for dear life.

To be fair can’t you basically say that about any starting rotation. They’re all going to be hurt sooner or later

[Sammy Sofa]

I'm not necessarily worried about injuries.

[Cubswin11]

I'm not necessarily worried about injuries.

From a division perspective who’s rotation is really more safe or better? They all have age, health, experience and regression worries.

 

If we get any sort of offense close to not August on offense and top 15 but not top 12 rotation (rough range) we will be plenty good.

It's a cruddy rotation regardless of who they're playing.
