    I’m not agreeing or disagreeing with anyone’s argument. SS has a positional bias in calculating WAR. His number is defense heavy but inflated by the bias. He’s not going to get any better but he’s still a good defender. There is a reason why the Braves let him go. On the right team he’s an excellent part.

    Hodge looks like a keeper. lots of movement
  3. CubinNY
    Every game is going to be a quick one. These guys want to go home.

    Inida is a really good offensive 2nd baseman. His defense is not great though.
  5. CubinNY
    Paredes with a great play at 3rd.
  6. CubinNY
    I hate this guy's pre-pitch routine.
  7. CubinNY
    I'm not disagreeing, but does this sound like a Jed/Ricketts move?
  8. CubinNY
    The pen. I know that’s not new or news, but yeah, it’s bad if it takes two plus months to get sorted again.

    Horton has to show he can manage a starting pitcher workload. He's not young and he's pitched less than 200 innings between college and professional baseball. That's not the profile of a starting pitcher. I understand why they limit innings and all the other stuff, but at some point, he has to pitch like a starter for more than a handful of starts. Flame away.

    yes, just waiting to see where the new breakdown will come from. It's terrible to be conditioned this way.

    I don't know if I'm getting older and it matters less to me, but this was the least enjoyable Cubs season I can remember since 2010-2013. Absolutely no reason to enjoy after April. The worst part for me is that it was by design. The Ricketts have drained almost all of my fandom.

    They sent Javy home.
  13. CubinNY
    He looked fine. He was on time with a pitch down the middle but fowled it straight back. If they decide to trade him, I hope it's for a real difference-maker.

    Jed is the perfect fit for the owners. He may get fired or leave at the end of the next season but we can rest assured that they will find another just like him. They have their idea of how to build a winning team and a financial limit they will not stray much past. They have their championship and will now and forever be counting coin.
  15. CubinNY
    I still think he's got some kind of a nagging injury he's playing through. We know the priorities for next year include pitching, but I'd like to see some better bench guys they can plug in.
  16. CubinNY
    You are the king of not getting it.
  17. CubinNY
    Jeez o' pete. Can we agree that they were among the most used relievers and stop with the pedantic bull horsefeathers. The point stands and no amount of hair splitting will change that. One can blame Ross or Jed or both. And "riding" a lightning in a bottle is stupid.
  18. CubinNY
    O happy day
  19. CubinNY
    Funny is doing a lot of there.

    You just want things to click in place for the Bears and they never do. If they could run the ball as well as they did two years ago or even last year that would take some pressure off. They are constantly treading water up to their nose
  21. CubinNY
    The Tigers are about to be a really good team. They are not trading Skubal.
  22. CubinNY
    Send your resume to the Bears with one of your 739 line posts on here. They will hire you in a 2nd. They need someone with brains in Hallas Hall.
  23. CubinNY
    ERA is not a good metric for a bullpen pitcher.
  24. CubinNY
    Hangover lineup I would imagine.
  25. CubinNY
    This is one area that I trust them to make the correct decision if they target a guy. They have a pretty good track record. I'm more worried about injury than performance.
