  1. What? He’s been hitting well for like 6 weeks now.
  2. I might be out on Craig. And I never would have thought I’d be saying that less than 5 months into year 1. Sheesh.
  3. Does xBA take sprint speed into account?
  4. Always seems like we fall apart after an error
  5. He’s looking even better than I was hoping he would at this point over the last ~6 weeks. Even his outs lately are 100mph+ rockets. I’m quite impressed.
  6. If you can guarantee me Soto, Vlad, or Tucker I want Belli to opt out so bad. If not, he might be our best option for a bat (115 wRC+ isn’t terrible) and offers nice defensive flexibility. Won’t feel great about the offense with our only addition being a catcher, though.
  7. If he put up a 97 wRC+ over a full season, that might be a 6 fWAR year.
  8. He’s never going to have even a “good” BB rate. He is just so aggressive. And pitchers definitely don’t want to walk him and allow him to steal 2nd. As he continues to pound the ball for XBH, the scouting report will evolve and pitchers will get more careful with him. It’ll be up to him to make the necessary adjustment and hopefully take some walks. I’m excited to watch his evolution.
  9. Can someone remind the Cubs that this is the worst bullpen in the league and they should be pummeling it?
  10. Let’s not do anything to make JD leave. He must be protected at all costs.
  11. On pace for 84 wins if they continue on the .600 winning % pace they’ve been playing at. Don’t think that will be good enough to overtake one of Atlanta, San Diego, or Arizona, but it could make things interesting at least. Though if Milwaukee plays at a .400 pace the rest of the season, they will end with 83 wins. Maybe they pull a September 2023 Cubs.
  12. Play Shaw at 2B, trade the rest for pitching because there will be nowhere for anyone else to play after we sign Soto
  13. 2 off days in the next 7 days. Why is our best hitter sitting for Mike Tauchman?
  14. Has a team ever started 6 top 100 prospects in the same game before?
  15. You know there are metrics to evaluate these things right? They aren’t perfect, but PCA and Bellinger aren’t even close.
  16. PCA being awesome is so awesome. Absolutely ridiculous
  17. PCAs jumps and speed are ridiculous. Makes everything so routine.
  18. lol didn’t pull it quite enough for even a trop bop, but I checked BS immediately.
