    Like when they're not ridiculously over worked they're fine?

    I think I'd rather see Little against the lefties but hope to be proven wrong.

    @1908_Cubs Is his in zone whiff % way up in the last couple weeks?

    What's the corresponding 40 man move? I think that's the biggest obstacle to that right now.

    PCA is just lost.

    Even if you go all the way back to 1998, it's probably Peyton Manning and Luck higher and then Eli, Lawrence and Burrow in the same tier with maybe a guy like Carson Palmer pretty close.

    No, I'm not missing the point. I actually agree with you, but your insistence on being weird af about it and using horrible examples like the 2016 Cubs makes what you're trying to say a losing argument. There are probably very few people here who would be like "Yeah, what the Cubs did to Kris Bryant was totally fine and cool" even though it got another year of control for the team.

    Please elaborate in detail which players from the 2016 team should have been signed long term for the money they were asking for and tell me why that would have been a sound investment for the team. Your insistence on this horsefeathers line of thinking is tired, old and you should stop doing it. We all get the point and I think largely agree, but going down this road specifically with the 2016 team is just plain dumb and wrong. And for the love of god just speak normal English instead of the cliched idiotic phrasing you continue to use that makes most of your posts impossible to read.

    I said it to a buddy last night during the game, but I definitely think one of those two will be closing by season's end because they both have the electric stuff to get the job done. I hope it's not a long term role for either of them, but it would make a ton of sense as a band aid for this year.

    Happ/Tauchman/Canario isn't bad defensively I don't think. Canario looks awkward making plays sometimes but he seems to read the ball and run well so I don't see him a a liability. Wisdom on the other hand.......

    He ran into a brick wall and the wall won.

    Holmes off the top rope. Love it. https://x.com/670TheScore/status/1783203896745472422

    It's an unwritten rule and now Ben Brown gets to throw a baseball at your head. Or something like that. Or maybe you have to catch a fish. Someone get Dusty on the phone.
  14. mul21
    I had that thought last night and just assumed it meant Wesneski was probably slotted for the rotation over Brown, but I guess you never know.
  15. mul21
    That was the striking thing to me. They scored 3 runs on like 11 pitches or something. That's insane.

    My biggest issue with the whole Hendricks situation is that it just feels eerily similar to the way things were going before he was shut down in 2022. Velocity was okay, but he was just missing his spots and not fine enough with the control to be effective. Throw on top of it the fact that Taillon was out to start the year and Steele went down right away and I can see a guy like Kyle sucking it up and trying to grit through some kind of arm injury for the good of the team.

    horsefeathers Stan Kroenke, even more than most of the other billionaires that own teams.
  19. mul21
    They can bring up any of them plus Wesneski as the 27th man tomorrow, but that doesn't get Brewer back to Iowa.
  20. mul21
    He has? I missed that bit of news if it's been declared specifically by the Cubs.
  21. mul21
    Eh, it just delays the pen use problem by a day or two because they'll play a DH at some point this weekend I'd guess.

    A buddy who is a big KU fan just texted me and said it was all but a done deal to Illinois until yesterday when his gf committed to Kansas.

    No, 99th percentile for chase rate means only 1% chase less than the guy being discussed, so that would be excellent. The in zone contact is always going to be an issue for Caissie, more than likely, because of the power, but because he doesn't chase, it's less of a problem. When you chase and miss in zone (Javy Baez comes to mind without any statistical back up here), that's what's really problematic.

    I love the workday games. I throw it on in a browser window with headphones on and actually usually get a lot accomplished.

    Well that was a horseshit call for strike 3 on Busch.
