  1. Have to wonder where the bottom is.
  2. Buckner is the next one they should force to retire
  3. I’m pretty sure he dips on his work days too.
  4. The signs are there we have to hope they eventually turn it around
  5. In all fairness to him, it's a tough road to plow. But yeah, I don't think he's done a very good job to this point.
  6. Yeah, the thing about Happ, Suzuki, and even Belli is that they are good players to have on a team, but not good enough that they are going to fetch a return for anything other than a lottery ticket or an underproducer with a pedigree. The Cubs are less than the sum of their parts right now due to injuries, underperformance, bad luck (oh my!!), and maybe not bad management, but bad accountability (I don't know). They certainly can turn things around. The ASB might be just what the Dr. asked for. Rest, relax, reset.
  7. They kind of remind me of when I used to put Lego stuff together with my son. Even following the directions, we'd inevitably make a mistake around step 4 and not figure it out until step 22 and then have to take everything apart and start back again. I believe that is where the Cubs will be by the deadline. Only they don't have much to trade out or in that will make a difference right now.
  8. I guess? But if he's hurt it seems to make more sense to put him IL. I don't see any advantage to playing a 70% Nico with a broken hand. The risk of further injury outweighs the benefit. Obviously, we don't know the full medical diagnosis.
  9. Not that anyone can answer this question, but why would the Cubs wait to IL Nico and have Vazquez shadow following the Cubs and not on any roster?
  10. For personal reasons (the Smokes don't come to Montgomery until the middle of July), I want Shaw and Mo to stay in AA.
  11. This post should be framed and hung in the Louver as the apex Derwood post.
  12. Not a 4 four game sweep is better than one by one.
  13. Counsell doing his best Ross impressions by leaving Imanaga in to pitch to failure
  14. Can Counsell protest to make them keep Montas on the mound?
