  1. What’s the point of posting this in a game thread? Happer takes a HR away.
  2. Willy hits a triple in his 2nd AB.
  3. He’s a big boy. Put him on a diet in Arizona this winter.
  4. The Cubs have certainly added a lot of pitching between the draft and now. I love the Efross and Robertson returns.
  5. But not here. They will extend him. I’m confident.
  6. Sometimes the best trades are the ones you don’t make.
  7. Not that I'm pining away to trade Wilson, but it seems strange that nothing is bubbling after the early rumors this morning.
  8. I saw Robert Hassell III, in South Bend. He is going to be really good. He looks like a tight end/line backer.
  9. Anyone but the Cardinals. And, lol.
  10. Sounds like a done deal for Soto to the Padres.
  11. Willy to the Rays rumors heating up.
  12. Hopefully, he blows his knee out on the first play.
  13. Lol, Cardinals Twitter going apoplectic at the thought of having to give up Carlson and two top prospects for Soto.
  14. I agree, and it makes little sense in the world of NFL football.
  15. Here understatement.
  16. Aren't the Brewers in 1st place in the division? I'm telling you someone in the Cardinals org has sold his sole to lucifer.
  17. the Cardinals draft & develop amazingly well Their 5th rounder from last year was basically called a plug and play 4th starter and is graded a 50. The HS SS they took in the 2nd in 2020 is a 50+, excelling in AA already.Yes, most Cub fans have no idea how bad the Cubs are at this sort of thing.
  18. And an interesting thread: tl;dr McKinstry's strength is his hit tool, and one way to measure that is how consistently good a player's launch angle is. McKinstry rates very well here, and on top of his left handedness and positional flexibility it could be needed help, since the Cubs are last in launch angle standard deviation(the Dodgers are 1st for comparison) If they limit the shift next year this is the type of athletic player that could become quite useful. I like the outcome of the trade.
  19. Big picture, small picture In the big picture, it would not be a good thing for the Cubs if the Cardinals get Soto. In the small picture, it might be a good thing for the Cubs if the Cardinals get Soto as the losers in the bidding war for Soto might be more interested in Happ and Willy. Overall, the Cardinals getting Soto would suck so much only mitigated by the potential loss of the top of their system.
  20. Main thing is he has a tendency to throw hittable pitches. Last inning was a good example
  21. Sampson imploding after two outs.
  22. Cubs are off tomorrow. Should be an interesting day for an off day.
  23. If the Cardinals do get Soto let’s at lest hope they paid a fair price.
