  1. Believe we read or heard of a high degree of un-professionalism, a lack of attention to detail amongst the last coaching staff. At the least, it sounds like the Bears have remedied those issues.
  2. I believe the Bears have gone to great strides to put Caleb into a position where he can succeed and that's all you can ask of any team.
  3. It's too bad the Leafs appear to be done, on a good note the Oilers did put those horsefeathers Vegas Golden Knights to bed last night.
  4. I remember that game, not only did Benson run all over the Bears, they seemed happy about it, helping him up, encouraging him, just over all delighted with his performance. That's the part I didn't get, congratulate an opponent after the game, during the game do everything in your power to grind him into dust.
  5. That's OK let the media over hype Daniels, the Hail Mary and the Commanders, it'll make it that much sweeter when Caleb out plays him on MNF in front of everyone.
  6. Yes keep taking 2 of 3 and things will be alright. What is about the Marlins pitcher getting multiple strikes on obliviously low balls? Many of them not even close. Think Cubs pitchers got one maybe, two such calls.
  7. He's had 3 good starts all year and, of course, one of them was against the Cubs. However, I don't think the Phillies are done scoring off Gray. And, as I was typing, Schwarber ties the game.
  8. Same kind of BS that helped the Diamondbacks to that big 8th inning a few weeks ago.
  9. There's one, Romano strikes out the side. Hopefully, loss number two is eminent. Really was a perfectly placed FB that struck out Contreras, don't believe he could have done much with that pitch even had he swung.
  10. Arenado pops up and Contreras K's looking. I it's the randomness of baseball and all but, would it kill that horsefeathers Castellanos to something against the Cardinals? Dipshit is dead red against the Cubs but, is an automatic out for the Cardinals.
  11. It's annoying as hell, at some point the schedule is going to catch up to the Cardinals.
  12. Such a lame excuse most especially with the Cubs in a supposed win now mode. Winning sometimes requires a little risk taking, Hoyer took one with Tucker. Should have pulled the trigger on Luzardo regardless.
  13. Luzardo mowing down the Cardinals, still don't understand why the Cubs couldn't match the equivalent of what the Phillies gave up.
  14. What is it about these soft tossing junk ballers that gives the Cubs fits?
  15. That would be great, just don't trust the Bulls to actively pursue getting better. Don't think I've ever seen a franchise less interested in winning than the Bulls. They're mediocre, proud of it and that's all they want to be.
  16. I think it's more 6 of those 9 have been against the Pirates and Nationals. Let's see how they come out of 2 more at the Phillies (Luzardo and Nola), 3 at the Royals, followed by the Tigers and Diamondbacks at home.
  17. I'm thinking DH for Ballesteros, I believe it makes the most sense.
  18. Maybe the Cubs are starting to come out of the team wide funk, at least 6 balls hit with EV's of 100+. If it weren't for the Marlins pulling defensive plays out of their collective asses the final score may have not been so close.
  19. I think they have, so far 4 balls with EV's of 100+ miles, except all have been at someone.
  20. Shouldn't take many, if any, good prospects for Anderson, 35, MOR guy, under contract for just this season, he's the typical Hoyer target. Don't get me wrong Cubs need all and any help they can get, just don't think Anderson has that high of a price tag.
  21. Is Hoyer prepared to pay the price tag, I mentioned, if Happ' injury lingers, giving Ballesteros a try, however, I'm all for trading him while his value is at it's highest point. Is Hoyer? Or, more likely, what bargain bin starting pitching will he target? Don't know who but, I'm certain there's plenty of these types he'll have on his shopping list.
  22. There hasn't been much good about the Cubs bullpen but, facing good to loaded lineups game after game has to be a factor. I don't know of many bullpens that'll come out with sterling numbers after facing the gauntlet the Cubs just finished. While were seeing negative regression out of the lineup, I'd say there's an excellent chance we're going to see some positive regression from the pitching the next few weeks.
  23. It may also be a chance for the bullpen to get back on track, no more facing loaded lineups game after game. There should be an uptick in performance in the following weeks.
  24. If this Happ injury is going to be a thing and let's face it, it's the Cubs, and it probably will be a thing. I wonder if any thought will given towards a Ballesteros cup of coffee at DH? He certainly cannot perform any worse than the corpse of Justin Turner.
