  1. I was thinking along the same lines, if it's mechanical there's the hope an off season of working/adjusting will correct.
  2. Was 2025 an outlier career year for Busch and this season is closer to who he is? Guess, 2027 will tell us.
  3. That's pretty much it, for the most part, he's been awful in 2026:
  4. I'm wrong about him having a hot streak, he was pretty good in May, the rest of the season not so good.
  5. Wonder if he's been nursing an injury most, if not all, of the season? I don't believe, as in previous seasons, he's managed a two week hot streak. Read his bat speed is down, something's not right.
  6. The question is will the Cubs win another Boyd start this season? Dropped his last 4, I've my doubts about the Cubs winning his start today but, hey, it's baseball stranger things have happened.
  7. Hell. if they were, what, one deviation from average they'd probably have 85+ wins.
  8. I think it's time to remove Palencia from the 2026 Cubs' equation, he's obviously not healthy/right. Shut him down, let him get fully healthy for 2027, if he still sucks then, yes, he's Alzolay 2.0.
  9. Watching the Astros and Diamondbacks, Cam Smith is not good. He's young so, there's room for improvement, wonder if he wouldn't benefit from some more time in the minors.
  10. They'll probably be eliminated from playoff contention by the time they get to Wrigley Field. Nevertheless, if they're not, it would great if the Cubs were the team officially eliminating the Marlins.
  11. For all the Phillies' fans here, Braves just tied the game.
  12. Really, I don't think there's any qualitative way one can say Pauley is good or even, average, yet the Cubs managed to walk him twice.
  13. WTF is with Cubs' starters and not throwing strikes the last two days? Almost cost them the game yesterday and certainly did today.
  14. Marlins' playoff chances are slim and none, Cubs sweep would have moved them closer to none.
  15. Don't really know how the Big Ten' "internal" clock and Hawk Eye System comes up with a second -
  16. Yes, they're good team at home. Hopefully, the Cubs put another dagger in their slim playoff chances tomorrow.
  17. They're good at home 42-29, not so good, even bad, on the road 29-43. Wouldn't you agree good teams manage at least .500 on the road?
  18. Marlins aren't good, Cubs pitching did their best to make them look good.
  19. Does anybody have a good feeling about the bottom of the 9th? I don't.
  20. I'd still take a chance on him getting hot for a bit in the post season. Him, more so than Rea, Thornton, Rolison or Theilbar.
  21. Come on, the Brewers are really bad match up for Shota. Haven't the Cubs lost enough to those fucks? Why make it easier?
  22. That's got to be it, Shota starting against the Brewers is some bad managing on Craig' part.
  23. The Brewers own Shota, Shota owns the Pirates, why not hold him back for the Pirates?
  24. Why go with Shota against the Brewers? It's a particularly bad match up for Shota. Doesn't make sense to keep throwing him to the wolves.
