  1. Morel double Wilson dong. 2-0 Cubs
  2. I really wonder what the Cubs are looking for and that will be the deciding factor. But when they do trade him, they will have a huge hole at the position. The Mets, Blue Jays, and Padres have pretty good catchers in the minors. Maybe the Cubs will be looking to replace Wilson.
  3. Houston's catchers are currently putting up a 124/214/211 slash line. Padres are 238/291/322. Doubt the Sox would be an option with Grandal and also just being the Sox, but currently getting 176/261/229 from that spot. Tampa is at 188/211/339. Mets are 222/257/304 Even someone like the Yankees, 10th in fWAR from that position, are slashing 217/267/316 This is all compared to Willy's 277/395/514 so far. Yes, his defense is suspect, to put it lightly, but he's basically doubling the production of all those teams with playoff aspirations right now. Factor in his clubhouse attributes, postseason experience, etc....someone is going to want him to be their starter down the stretch. With Higgins not falling on his face and Gomes still around somewhere (I think?) definitely think they should keep limiting his innings behind the plate (15th in baseball so far in innings caught) to avoid a major slump. I don't know how anyone can watch Willson and say his defense is suspect.
  4. Errors costing the Cubs today. Should be 4-1. Tie game.
  5. I’m more excited about the Cubs now than I was at the start of the season. Bring everyone up and get them in the game.
  6. The Cubs seem to have a surplus of promising outfield prospects. I wonder if they will exchange one or two for some starting pitching.
  7. Kutztown STATE. It's in Amish/Menonite country in PA. I had an interview there a long time ago. It was one of the most different places I've ever been to in America
  8. He’s on the 40 man roster, I think. So he may be in the bigs by August.
  9. The cubs remind me of the last year I played mens senior league baseball. We had like 40 guys on the team but we’re never sure which 9 or 10 would show.
  10. Morel with a nice play and rocket arm.
  11. TLR looks like a horsefeathering vampire.
  12. He’s the antiJoe Madden, even though he wasn’t that great either.
  13. In a bar in Boston and they have the Red Sox game on one screen and the pregame show for soccer on all the other screens with the sound on. Pretty amazing, to me at least.
  14. I'm in Boston for a conference and took in my first game at Fenway. It's amazing how similar the experience was to Wrigley. It's a little more intimate than Wrigley, but not as good sightlines. I had a lot of fun.
  15. WTF is up with the Reds drilling Wilson? and in general.
  16. I keep seeing this. Is he making a bunch of nice defensive plays or something? Really haven't watched much of the Cubs at all in the last week or so. He is a useful player at a bunch of positions and is holding his own at the plate right now.
  17. rain delay. Hopefully the just call it.
  18. Morel should be around the Cubs for a long time.
  19. Balls flying out all over the place.
  20. I really love Willy. I'm going to be bumbed out when he's gone.
