  1. Edwards is having a good spring. At first I thought they were giving him a landing spot to showcase, but I think he has a shot to make the pen.
  2. PCA is fine. Give a guy a learning curve.
  3. They are playing the guys they want to see more of so they can make better judgement at the tail end of the bench. Amaya is on the team.
  4. I’m no expert but it seems to me he’s destined for the bullpen. He seems to be more control of his mechanics when he’s in the stretch.
  5. If Poles intends to trade Fields before free agency he has today through Sunday.
  6. I'm looking forward to seeing Howard. I'm really hoping there is something to get excited about this year with him.
  7. I think Wicks is the 5 starter. Wesneski did have a decent start last night. I don't like him as a starter, but I do like him in the pen.
  8. Delacruz is 0-5 with 5 Ks against the Cubs this ST.
  9. Busch can handle heat.
  10. lol. That too.
  11. The only thing that is less likely to be stable is the batting average. But isn't that the case most guys? He changed his approach. That's the story.
  12. Madlcok was my hero as 6 6-year-old old. In YMCA softball I demanded to play 3rd base and wore wristbands like him. I cried so hard when he got traded.
  13. Once they get their regular lineup together start watching. Yesterday at top level pitcher was carving up minor leaguers.
  14. Not good. Kilian shaking his arm after throwing a curve ball.
  15. They must not have enough dough to pay Boog and JD to do ST games.
  16. if he was 6.3 205 so am I https://www.sportsmemorabilia.com/mlb-memorabilia/chicago-cubs/barry-foote-chicago-cubs-action-signed-8x10/o-3476+t-47555333+p-457043030259+z-9-1720659855
  17. Cubs are starting to get crowded in the upper minors. Should be an interesting few years watching how things get sorted out.
  18. They had one who won two batting titles and PK Wrigley sent him off for the audacity of asking for a raise and maybe also because he was black.
  19. It would be a huge mistake for Poles to gather picks every draft. At some point the picks are fungible, but not 1st round picks that high. Someone said, "Don't overthink this".
  20. Cubs play a night game tonight. It will be on Marquee.
  21. In yesterday's game, Lance Brozdowski mentioned that the gap between AAA and MLB is widening and large in pitching. Guys aren't staying down for extended periods when they have the goods. It stands to reason if that is true, there is little to be gained by keeping a hitter there either who has mastered AAA. That's not to say PCA or any of the other "kids" have mastered AAA. But the process has changed a lot in the last few years.
  22. Not today unless you are at the game.
  23. They had a "Cubs" offseason. Value and flexibility are Jed's calling cards. He knows where his limits are and works within them.
  24. it was a fine post. The other one will be infamous. You don't want that.
