    Smokies game is canceled for tonight.

    Someone is not doing their job well if they're not good soon.
  3. CubinNY
    Couldn't have said it better myself.

    Apparently, some people are taking offense to the offense being offensive. It's ok. The point I made that others didn't like and appear to be salient at least to some degree, albeit with caveats, is that beating up on alsorans does not make the team's offense good. Now that I've said that. I acknowledge: 1) they've faced what is likely the toughest part of their schedule relative to the completion, 2) they've played a lot of baseball over the past several weeks, and 3) Their middle-of-the-order bats have been injured. The fact that they are in first place is irrelevant. They are surviving on their starting pitching. And local trends trump historical trends every time. We obviously have to hope that when they get to full strength and the competition evens out the offense will take off.

    https://theathletic.com/5481059/2024/05/09/mlb-top-hitting-prospects-majors/ Multiple issues related to "stuff" at AAA pitching, the six game schedule, and roster limits. I know we've talked about here, the gap in level of quality at AAA compared to the majors is pretty large.

    lol.

    Nope. I'm not going to go through the offseason history, but I was bitching about before the season started.
  8. CubinNY
    I don't know what point you are trying to make. Many people saw this coming. Hopefully when and if they get back to full strength they will be a better offense. They currently are not and it was if not predictable, a concern.
  9. CubinNY
    Past performance is not a guarantee of future success. LOLOL (one more lol than you)

    I was worried about the lack of slugging during the offseason. But I was told the Cubs had one of the best offensive teams in 2023. Getting Suzuki and Bellinger back will help, but this team is not built to score a lot of runs. They started the year as "patient, pick your pitch and rip" hitters. Now they are a swing early and see what happens team, It's obviously early. They need someone or some-two to step up and be a superstar for a few weeks.

    Wow!
  12. CubinNY
    The Padres got three runs but the Cubs dropped a duce.
  13. CubinNY
    Arraez murders the Cubs
  14. CubinNY
    I wouldn't know how the Padres ever lose if I just watched them play the Cubs
  15. CubinNY
    They are stinking up the joint today.
  16. CubinNY
    In general, I agree, but the system in AAA works pretty well and pretty quickly.
  17. CubinNY
    Cease is on his game today. I hate that trade so much.
  18. CubinNY
    I know Counsell doesn't like to chase wins, but I don't like the Dave Ross pitch to failure method that seems to be at work here.
  19. CubinNY
    Time to get Wes.
  20. CubinNY
    Wes getting squeezed.
  21. CubinNY
    Agree. They lost a lot of the upper level player development and executive staff and Mozeliak has not been able to replace them.
  22. CubinNY
    nyet.
  23. CubinNY
    Wes is confident about what he wants to throw. I like that.
  24. CubinNY
    Is Cease a FH after this season?
  25. CubinNY
    Best thing about MLB.TV is that you can switch over to the radio broadcast and watch.
