  1. 1984 will forever live in my memory, first time in my sports fandom life that the Cubs were relevant. Led by an MVP second baseman named Ryne Sandberg - 19 - 19 - 32 came so close to 20+3B, 20+SB, 20+HR. RIP Ryno.
  2. Is anyone really convinced that Hoyer, with extension in hand, is going to make a true attempt at improving this team? I'm not.
  3. Losing is one thing but, Hoyer continuing to do jack horsefeathers nothing is what's really pissing me off. Oh, no, he's waiting to last possible second when, theoretically the asking prices will go down. Yeah, that's it.
  4. Oh, come the horsefeathers on, it’s just one horsefeathers game.
  5. Honestly the Cubs should leave Pressly off the playoff roster, the dude is cooked.
  6. Didn't the Mets trade for Soto (LHP)? Or was he someone signed off the waiver wire?
  7. Unless he's working on something big, a rental, such as Soroka, could have been done by now.
  8. Assad is maybe, slight upgrade over Rea? Nothing significant, I agree, they're basically the same.
  9. Thought I read something about Taillon coming back within the next two weeks.
  10. I was really hoping one for a trade yesterday to open up the possibility of skipping Rea. If something happens today is skipping Rea still possible?
  11. Brewers took him out after 3.2 IP vs. the Mariners the other day, believe he, like Horton, is on an innings limit. Cubs need to grind out at bats, make him throw a lot of pitches.
  12. Yes, yesterday may have been the worst day of Busch' career, 4 K's to along with not picking Shaw' throw. It looked like a tough but, make-able chance.
  13. I believe the Cubs are catching the Brewers at the right time, they're regressing coming off that unconscious stretch they had. Time for the Cubs to put together a hot stretch of their own.
  14. While Busch, Seiya and Dansby combined for an 0fer and 10 K's, the Cubs didn't walk anyone. And drew 6 walks themselves which was key to winning the game.
  15. Game shouldn't have been so close nevertheless, Cubs win. Tomorrow facing Misiorowski I'd like to see the Cubs grind out some at bats, he's had control problems in the past. So far his control has been very good, so try to up the pitch count and make it an early evening for Misiorowski.
  16. Yep, Counsell has got to move him back down, maybe, put Happ back in the lead off spot? Happ appears to be coming out of his slump.
  17. Can Busch please do something here, why can't he take advantage of RF like Benintendi did?
  18. Great to see Shaw coming around, I've a theory that guys who hit well at every level have a decent chance to something at the major league level.
  19. Mine as well, would cost a lot less and is more versatile, can give almost anyone a break or two.
  20. Busch has a third of them, firmly in the make no contact slump for him. Hopefully, it doesn't last too long.
  21. I see we're in the Busch makes little to no contact mode right now, I'd like to see him moved back to the 5th spot.
  22. This has to be Brown last meaningful start of the season right?
  23. If a trade for a Marlins pitcher or pitchers is in the works you'd think it would happen today. Whomever it is would just stay in Milwaukee and could potentially start for the Cubs, dependent on their pitching schedule, Wednesday. After checking, both Cabrera (last start 07/22) and Alcantara (07/23) should be able to go Tuesday or Wednesday.
  24. Soroka it is, I know we like him, given his profile and the Cubs affinity for reclamation projects, he might be a realistic option.
