Anyone know the 2nd highest bidder in the Dansby sweepstakes and how much was offered?

[Irrelevant Dude]

What the hell was that?

[profisme]

Could someone please explain to me how on earth Happ has won a Gold Glove for his defensive play?

I know the Twins were in but no idea what was being offered, even with the inside information we had that offseason.

[BKHoo]

Happ that looked like a little league error. Not even close. 

[Cubs206]

It’s like this team are a bunch of zombies and being choreographed to lose accidentally on purpose most days. 

[Irrelevant Dude]

Now they are going to nickel and dime Hendricks to death.

Not many LFs had the minimum fielding opportunities or games if I remember correctly

Kyle looks good enough to pull on a 10-15 organization prospect by the trade deadline 

We’d be lucky to pull in $1000 in cash considerations.

Biblical losses

Their consolation prize was correa

First time Hendricks has faced a good team in a while so this isnt too surprising. Once the rotation is healthy, he’s hopefully not in it

When future generations taking a deep dive into this Cubs team:

Correa was their first choice the entire time, they just kept their options open and were also pursuing Swanson.

I know everyone is tired of hearing it, but there was some bad luck (and defense) in there again too.  Hendricks certainly wasn't great and he gave up a rocket of a grand slam, but it never should have got to that.

Looks like they ran out of that Justin Steele pixie dust.

Definitely, that Happ play was pretty bad.

Turang is quickly becoming a thang

Steele, Taillon, Imanaga, Assad, Brown, Wicks

When healthy theres no spot for Hendricks in 2024 rotation 

[Andy]

It feels like giving up grand slams in 2 games in the same series is a bad idea
