  1. Yeah, when it's an unestablished guy, I usually feel bad. He may have to look back for the rest of his life and wonder what could have been had he just shutout the Cubs that day.
  2. They laughed at you, Jorge. They said mean things about you like they "don't him there". They didn't believe. I did. I hope you remember who stood tall beside you. But seriously, he had a .362 wOBA over his last month. He's had just over a full seasons worth of PAs in his career. We've all been spoiled by Bryant hitting from day one.
  3. Yeah that's probably enough for me.
  4. Oh my. Jake's stuff looks 10/10 today.
  5. So they have no faith in coghlan but hit him leadoff?
  6. Soler is still going to be great. His offensive peak will be as good as any of them. Bryant, Russell and Baez are going to the HOF.
  7. Well, I always loved you, Jorge! When they replaced you with Reddick, I said it was a mistake, even for the remainder of this season. They didn't listen to me. But I tried to convince them, Jorge. I tried.
  8. Why are we adding Reddick again? Soler has a higher career OBP as well as tons of upside. Its not like Reddick is a + defensively and the chance his on-base skills regress closer to the norm means he could very well add less value than Soler would the rest of the way, never mind Jorge's potential to improve and mash like he was before the hamstring.
  9. I guess the best we can hope for is something like Torres/Warren/Richard/Balaguert + an extension? I don't love it but I like it even less with any of our other top 5 guys replacing Torres. If it was Eloy I would have spontaneously combusted.
  10. Soler gets on base more than Bruce. He's 24 and a better defender. I'm gonna say it every chance I get, unless there's a huge upgrade, let Jorge play. Get that bat going like it was in the month before his injury and we're back to Murderer's Row.
  11. Of course every team could always use another premier arm in the pen. I have to admit, though, I feel kind of bad for Rondon. He allows the 2nd fewest baserunners in baseball, ahead of Miller, Chapman, Betances, etc and even after getting Montgomery the talk is still about adding a big arm in the pen. I get it, I do. I want a pen full of closers and "firemen". I just think Rondon flies under the radar, even in Chicago.
  12. Fowler Bryant Rizzo Contreras Baez Soler Russell Zobrist Is the best I can come up with offensively.
  13. Ugh. Soler has a higher career OBP% than Reddick (!), he's 5 years younger and still has incredible upside. He was also looking great before the hamstring. Like TT said, make a real impact move or stay quiet. It's the best team in baseball as currently constructed.
