  1. I have 0 faith in Smyly. He’ll probably throw 6 scoreless.
  2. The Cubs have not been very good at evaluating talent and developing talent. Evaluating is probably more critical than developing, but that's important too. It's like the pitch lab, they're trying to squeeze out every ounce of talent so a guy can be a usable bullpen arm. Well done!, but what's the point? Couple that with hardly ever wanting to pay for "the guy" in free agency, and when they do they get burned. The Cardinals excel at evaluating and developing talent. And they are even better at knowing which guys to castoff and which to keep when they do make it. They are better at evaluating ML talent in free agency, and they aren't afraid to pay. I think Tommy Boy has his own Tommy Boy in Jed. They are of one mind and I don't think it bodes well for Cubs fans but bodes well for both Tommys.
  3. Now they’re 1-1-1 in each of the 54s. They won one, had a what could have been loss, and a hide the kids this is ugly loss.
  4. I didn’t really think the rankings matter to a large degree, but production and development do matter. Does anyone think if somehow the Cardinals had PCA and we had Walker the situation would be the same? Walker would be AA with a ton of potential and a 35% K rate. PCA would be Jim Edmonds’ illegitimate child manning CF in St. Louis.
  5. The weather looked like it was bothering Steele a little, but nice dp to get him out of a jam
  6. What is the likelihood that PCA is a slightly better version of Almora?
  7. Is there any way to tone down the pop up advertising? It’s almost impossible to use the site from my phone and really will decrease my level of engagement. I realize you need to make it profitable, but damn.
  8. On the phone it was next to impossible to find. I kept scrolling and there was an advertisement for Cubs affiliates
  9. Mervis and Bote go back to back. Sampson looks not good
