  1. Tauchman has to rank pretty high on best scrap-heap pickups in recent Cubs history. Boog tried to get "Captain Fullcount" going as a nickname for him early this season and I dig it. He's just a rock at the plate.
  2. You could probably get a slight something for Cody, but beyond that, not really.
  3. Bellinger first and foremost. Maybe Tauchman. Neris if you can find someone dumb enough (like the Cubs) to ignore his peripherals. I'm not sure who else doesn't fall under one or more of 1) too young for it to make sense to give up on, 2) too old or signed for too long to make sense to trade, or 3) sucks too bad to have any value. There might be a reliever in there somewhere that I'm missing.
  4. As well he and Madrigal should have. As has been beaten to death, Bote is very likely to continue to be a bad MLB hitter, but there's no point going glove-first with Mastro and Madrigal when neither of them are really any good with the glove.
  5. Agreed that innings reasons are a thing with Brown. They did say during his last start that his numbers are much better starting then relieving. I don't know how much of that is just noise, though.
  6. He couldn't just go down, he'd have to be DFA to open up a spot on the 40 man (unless there's a vacancy on it I'm unaware of)
  7. Alzolay seems like a logical move but Madrigal DFA would be a bigger relief
  8. Seiya horsefeathers something routine up in the field is all too believable. Saves me the trouble of watching any more of this one.
  9. Problem with that logic is PCA hit the ball and India is not a stupid moron, which you would've had to be to attempt to go to first on that particular ball when hit by a fast guy like PCA
  10. I sincerely hope the Cubs were not stupid enough to believe some manager voodoo is why the Brewers kicked their ass for the better part of a decade but the contract suggests they did
  11. In a tournament where the top 4 seeds are very unlikely to be the best 4 teams (because only conference champs get them), reseeding doesn't make much sense.
  12. He rounded third by about 15 feet on a slow ground ball single up the middle by PCA that only a brain dead squirrel would've thrown to first on (and therefore only a brain dead squirrel would've danced around in hopes of scoring on) and India made the easiest assist of his life to get him
  13. This horsefeathers team and their fake rallies.
  14. What the horsefeathers was Swanson doing there, he had to know the Reds weren't getting PCA and would look at him
  15. We have reached the point where I legitimately think Ian Happ might sue Major League Baseball for slicing the amount of games the Cubs play against the Reds and Pirates
  16. Make it three, which of course ties the major league record for one half-inning
  17. Nothing like a couple of warning track-ish fly balls to annoy us even more
  18. Andy

    PCA

    If no one is hitting anyway, no reason not to.
  19. Honestly they've kicked our ass since the late stages of 2018. Were it not for a crazy collapse in the 2019 wild-card game to the eventual world champs, maybe they'd already have a title out of this run they're on.
  20. All it took was ruining Trevor Megill's career to wake up this offense
  21. Looks like the wrist now on the replay. Must be broken. Absolutely awful luck for him.
