    If pressed into action I think one of Scott or Pettis could be OK. There should be an improvement at QB which will help with one of them being effective. That's not to say the Bears shouldn't look to improve the depth at WR even with one of Nabers or Odunze in hand.
  2. gflore34
    Poles realizes one one of the big WR's is potentially one of difference making players a team needs, he's not going to trade down for trading down' sake.
  3. gflore34
    Yes, if that pick is Nabers or Odunze, the Bears could finally have a legit NFL offense. If Williams just manages to be average, which I think he'll be, in his first season, we can wave bye, bye to struggling to score a first half TD. Or games where 200+ passing yards seem like an outlier.
  4. gflore34
    If one the big WR's is there at 9 I believe the Bears will keep the pick, taking a WR, otherwise, trade down.
  5. gflore34
    Seriously you know are done when poor hitter like Profar is 3-3, all of them rockets, against you.
  6. gflore34
    Mop up, either the Cubs are way ahead or way down, you can't bring him in for any high leverage situations, he's got no chance.
  7. gflore34
    The fearsome trio of Profar, Kim and Campusano are 5-5 thus far, yeah, Hendricks is cooked. Can't keep giving him starts, you're guaranteed to be down multiple runs when he' on the mound.
  8. gflore34
    Make sense, the three C's were developed in the Pacific Northwest.
  9. gflore34
    Trying to be diplomatic? I agree though, they're a significant downgrade from the Dodgers.
  10. gflore34
    The Padres are a slight downgrade from the Rangers and Dodgers, it'd be great if he could make through the twice with minimal damage. I've my doubts, I to believe Hendricks is cooked nevertheless, its baseball, so most anything could happen.

    Never been the West Coast, I've heard that San Diego is a destination for West Coast IPA's? Might pair well with BBQ.
  12. gflore34
    Does Cuas have an options left? If he does, I'm thinking he's going to be moved to Iowa soon, question is who do they call up?
  13. gflore34
    UConn was able to concentrate on the supporting cast, too much size for Loyer and Smith plus working off the dribble to get open 3's or to the hoop is not their game.
  14. gflore34
    Felt the same way after Illinois-UConn, both the Illini and Boilers are better they showed in their games.
  15. gflore34
    Hell yeah, Cubs take two of three from the Dodgers, Cubs looked fairly good is winning this series. Hopefully it's a sign of things to come.
  16. gflore34
    There's one thing unequivocally true Cubs middle defense >>> Dodgers middle defense, Betts is great and all but, just throwing him out there at SS or 2B could come back to bite them in the ass.
  17. gflore34
    Thanks, I did fix my post. Funny thing I did look up his splits assuming he was facing LHP as a RHB of course, did not bother to check if he was actual switch hitter.
  18. gflore34
    I honestly thought he was, cannot believe I didn't check, guess I'm old.
  19. gflore34
    Think it's contributing to the injuries? I remember Fergie Jenkins saying he'd throw 100 pitches before his starts and didn't agree with the current load management philosophy.
  20. gflore34
    Ohtani is still pretty effective vs. LHP, though not as menacing as is vs. RHP. Comparing lineups would one take the Braves or Dodgers? Think I'd take the Braves, Dodgers are top heavy, whereas the Braves have a little more balance to the lineup.
  21. gflore34
    Cubs won, screw Ohtani, hope we get to see Little make him look human.
  22. gflore34
    Swanson smoked that 98 mph FB, 106 mph exit velocity, only thing that kept it from going 420+ ft was the wind.
  23. gflore34
    About the Cubs pitcher I'd feel good about getting Ohtani out is Little. Really, don't think Ohtani would have much of a chance against Little.
  24. gflore34
    Miller, from Elk Grove, was drafted 29th in 2020, Cubs took Howard at 16 that year. Think there's a better than average chance Howard never makes it and is out of baseball within the next five years. Do the Dodgers EVER horsefeathers up a draft?
  25. gflore34
    When discussing his options a #9 Poles mentioned WR as a position they're looking to fill. Believe it was among the first things he said, don't know if it means anything however, I believe if Harrison Jr., Nabers or Odunze is there the Bears will keep the pick and take one of those three. If those three are gone at #9, I believe Poles will look to trade down and go DE and WR. Of course, given the big three at WR are gone, it would not make much sense for Buffalo to trade up looking for a WR. Unless they have someone like Thomas in the same group as those three.
