  1. This thread is exactly the same as a random game two years ago. It’s coaching and personnel decisions by upper management.
  2. Any context that has Wesneski starting games for the Cubs means bad things have happened. He’s awful.
  3. Glad I can’t bet.
  4. I'd take USC giving points and the under (44) this week if I could bet. I hate betting against Michigan but it seems like a good bet.
  5. Biscuits are also in a game three winner-take-all all tonight. I need them both to win.
  6. I'll bet you 500 fake dollars that neither one is traded if Bellinger returns.
  7. I don't know. I guess what I'm saying is, if I'm flipping around the TV and see a game is on NBC or whatever I might tune in, but I'm not going to take the trouble to find the ap or log on to the computer to watch.
  8. I couldn't find a week 3 thread - but is anyone going to go out of their way and watch the Jets and Patriots on Amazon? I mean, major markets and all, but I can't imagine anyone signing up to watch these Thursday games.
  9. Yes, he's front-footing his swing, and his power is sapped even though he has better-than-average bat speed. It's fixable, but it would take a concerted effort.
  10. I sure hope you are wrong.
  11. Just empty the farm? How about Rooker and Miller? One stop shopping.
  12. Soto isn't leaving NY (Mets or Yankees, but Yankees) unless a team like the Cubs makes a Corleone offer that we know the Ricketts will have difficulty approving. I suppose stranger things have happened.
  13. A - but with a closer not Jansen or Roberts.
  14. Yes, a full season of Parades wil help out a lot from the production they got at 3rd + defense. Maybe mediocre wins?
  15. I would expect the same results if not worse. They've wasted good to great years by Imanaga and JaMo. Jed got them stuck in 2nd gear and there they shall remain. They have an incredibly inefficient team that is mediocre and people are crowing that Swanson finally decided to show up after the season is over, metaphorically. Besides PCA who is likely to get better? Maybe Busch and Amaya. Hey, let's get to 88 wins and see what happens.
  16. It would be unwise but expected for the Cubs to run this same team back out next year hoping for good health and some good breaks looking to be competitive until the trade deadline and see what is available. Obviously not the EXACT some team for the pedantic ones.
  17. The lack of a running game contributed.
  18. I would imagine one of the reasons is that they are pricing out seats for corporate owners/buyers. They are marketing the game to businesses to use as perks/write-offs/etc.
  19. I voted pitching, but it's both. They are stuck and stuck worse if Bellinger opts-in.
  20. Soto is not leaving NY. And doubly so if they win the WS this year. Even dumb-ass Hal Steinbrenner knows that. They are going to make him the highest-paid player in baseball.
  21. I agree. Wisdom is the guy to DFA. Its highly doubtful he gets tendered a contract.
