  1. Pat Benatar sings “it’s a little too little it’s a little too late” in my head
  2. Whoever wants to trade Morel go root for someone else.
  3. If they can’t beat Denver, I don’t know how they score enough to beat any team. It’s the NFL so, it’s possible but this game is important.
  4. They need to find a 1st baseman and a 3rd baseman. Maybe a CF. They need left handed power. The need a SP a closer (maybe), and a LH Reliever or two. They have some money, but not a lot of Stroman stays. The FA market is thin. They may be spending prospects.
  5. My post is not pessimistic in the least. It’s reality. It’s public pronouncements from Tommy boy and his boy Jed I didn’t call them misers. But they aren’t spending money to go over the luxury tax for multiple years. So we can forget about $40M/yAAV contracts for anyone without sacrificing to a great extent on other talent.
  6. Not the right comment to the well written commentary, but… they should not build a team that will be good if things break right. they should build a team that will be good even if things break wrong.
  7. Not necessarily disagreeing with you as a expect they will NEVER go above the LT that they personally pushed through the last CBA. But if anything, with the talent coming up in the next year or two, I’d expect they get close. Jed and the Ricketts don’t want to get purse high dollar FA because they are business oriented first and winning second.
  8. Cubs are a broken team. They need a break.
  9. De Vries has a beautiful left-handed swing. Linked to the Padres.
  10. I was solid on the first 8, but after that, I could have put them in any order.
  11. Guys, I kind of feel like this is my fault. I go to bed with them in the lead and check in the morning. I’m staying up tonight
  12. You do have to love that they are home underdog to a team whose last game was competitively over in the 2nd quarter.
  13. That's the spirit. Maybe it will be like the Michael Jordan draft.
  14. I keep waiting for the shoe to drop every inning.
  15. Great manager. Hopefully, he takes a year off and comes back and coaches a highly talented Cubs team. But I doubt it.
  16. We have to hope that these are learning opportunities for Ross and he will improve when the Cubs are in a better position to compete.
