Hi everybody. Long-time lurker. Finally decided to jump into the water. I've spent the last 15-20 minutes looking for the appropriate place to introduce myself and couldn't find it, so I hope here is okay.

I figured it was going to be Palencia.

He might be, but there is no reason to think that he is.  The manager still has to write out a lineup.

Moving! We bought a house in early June, so this entire summer has been a combination of:

1. Dealing with this brutal housing market

2. Dealing with all the nonsense of buying.

3. Packing.

4. Moving.

5. Having the internet set up a week after we moved.

6. Unpacking

We are finally in, have internet and am decompressing. Good thing I go back to work Monday haha

Congratulations on your new home, bud!  Off topic:  I think that this Neely kid is going to be an impact arm in the pen next season, and hopefully a look at him this season.

I like Neely! He's got a weird slider profile; really low RPM's. Creates the gyro motion. Think he's an interesting guy. I think he'll fit in as a solid mid inning guy with some potential setup stuff.

Watch Cubs trade Bellinger to Giants for Snell at the last minute 😅
