  1. Unless he's working on something big, a rental, such as Soroka, could have been done by now.
  2. Assad is maybe, slight upgrade over Rea? Nothing significant, I agree, they're basically the same.
  3. Thought I read something about Taillon coming back within the next two weeks.
  4. 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?
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. Can Busch please do something here, why can't he take advantage of RF like Benintendi did?
  12. 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.
  13. Mine as well, would cost a lot less and is more versatile, can give almost anyone a break or two.
  14. Busch has a third of them, firmly in the make no contact slump for him. Hopefully, it doesn't last too long.
  15. 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.
  16. This has to be Brown last meaningful start of the season right?
  17. 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.
  18. Soroka it is, I know we like him, given his profile and the Cubs affinity for reclamation projects, he might be a realistic option.
  19. Don't understand the Royals trade. They must think a WC is within their reach? Because as terrible the Tigers have been for, what, 3 weeks, the Royals are still 8 games behind them. Tigers aren't going to flounder forever, they'll get back on track. Actually, Grichuk wouldn't have been that bad of an add for the Cubs.
  20. I think Seiya' going to crush one this inning hopefully it's in the air and Tucker is on base.
  21. Well, Seiya with 111 and 105 EV's his last two at-bats maybe, he's starting to come out his slump?
  22. He went through a slump earlier, this one seems longer, nearly a month?
  23. Over under on the number of pitches it take to strike Busch out? I'll say over 3.
