Cubs (Brown) vs White Sox (Taylor): 7/27/25, 1:10pm

[Irrelevant Dude]

Probably not the best timing going into the Brewers series, but I think Seiya needs another day or two off to reset.

This aged well.

Would you rather

Watch replays of Seiya and Busch's ABs on a loop for 15 mins

Be waterboarded

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

The original big dumper Ian Happ just laying dudes out.

How about we waterboard the umpires into agreeing to do their jobs correctly.

I would agree if the Cubs had better options than Brujan, Berti or Turner.

I believe this evens up the all time Cubs-White Sox series if you also include the 1906 World Series.

Not sure if there is a general trade rumors thread but this was posted 20 mins ago

It’s actually pretty fun the Cubs and Brewers are going into this series tied. I’m excited about it. Sure it’ll be stressful, and sure we’d like the Cubs to be playing better ball at this point, but you can’t get better drama than this in July.

Reminds me a little bit like 2008. Cubs had a big lead all year, Brewers came back and tied us (I think), just before a 4 game series in Milwaukee. Hope this series goes like that one (Cubs swept all 4 games)

Yup I was just thinning if that series. If I remember right that was the season the Brewers traded for a rental CC Sabathia? An awesome series 

[We Got The Whole 9]

Those homers by Benintendi were served on a platters. Absolute meatballs.

Where Jim Edmonds hit a grand slam in game 4 to complete the sweep and geovoni Soto/Jeff S……a was the best homegrown talent on the roster.

If Caissie isn’t traded, he’s got to be the Cubs’ 4th OF and Brujan DFA’d. Give him some ABs if Happ continues to struggle.

Shaw's speed is impressive 

He has 14 sb this season, didn't realize that

Hello Jed? Are you awake? 

[UMFan83]

Now the Brewers are a favorite for Suarez according to Gomez. Probably trying to get him in uniform by tomorrow to torment the Cubs lol

I mean, it makes sense for the Brewers to try to upgrade their offense with what is by far the best available offensive option. Their offense is their weakness.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Thats a big duh for me. 3B are scarce and theres one having a monster year. He makes sense for just about every winning team.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Shaw says it was his idea to open his stance lol

I wouldn't be surprised if this ultimately happens, but Hector Gomez makes Bob Nightengale look good at his job

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Ugh, having to face Suarez in that 5-gamer at Wrigley coming up would be a nightmare.

If Logan Henderson is legitimately on the table for Suarez then I hope the Cubs are out. That's at least equal to giving up Wiggins which is just insane for 2 months of Suarez.

They probably give up a guy like that if they get another MLB piece along with Suarez 

[Brian707]

Its probably smoke by the Brewers to make the Cubs pay more for him.
