Despite Schwarber's Low BA do You Bring Him Back Next Year?
imb replied to Garapp's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
If you buy the July-now stretch as being who he actually is as a hitter, you don't have to squint too hard to see him run into a few .270 or .280 seasons, at which point he would be basically a .900+ OPS LF. Guys doing that this year? Justin Upton (and that bitch tommy pham) -
lol kevin durant is such a dumbass, good god

imb replied to Garapp's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Schwarber can really come or go. I was really into the idea of him being a HR hitter who could catch once a week or more, but since he's stuck in LF and power is so easy to find now, he's really only valuable as long as he's cheap. If there's some way to turn his cheap team control into something more valuable, I guess I'd be ok with it. -
how the horsefeathers is this guy good

Do You Like the Wilson/Avila for Candelario/Paredes Trade For The Cubs?
imb replied to apete6's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
We were a baseball team in need of a left handed reliever and a backup catcher and we got both for Candelario who may or may not be an ok backup or below average starter and parades who is an odds on favorite to never make the major leagues. Sucks that Wilson has sucked but its a good bet that will turn around before the contract expires. Avila became our starter, filled in admirably, and had several big or game winning hits for us. It was a good trade and we got the exact return that we needed. this is an absurdly positive take for a backup catcher and a reliever with a 2 WHIP since he got here. Hell backup catchers are so easy to find that we managed to get a backup to our backup for free and he has a .850 OPS as a cub -

We also got back a guy who ended up being our starting catcher for a month while putting up a .257/.368/.432 line. And Wilson could come back next year and be good -- like he has been the rest of his career. Obviously it hasn't worked out great, since Wilson suddenly became horrible. But I'm not quite ready to write it off as a bad trade. yeah but there's no option for "ill hold off" so it's either good or bad, and it definitely hasn't been good. -

i dont care about the guys we gave up, i care that the guy we got back has been a net negative and might not even make the playoff roster when the same pieces could have brought back someone who could throw a strike once or twice a week -

If you think about it, it's pretty crazy how much has gone wrong. We've gotten very little from all three OF spots (3.4 WAR from Heyward/ALmora/Jay/Schwarbs) Russell sucked and got hurt (or got hurt and sucked,) same for Zobrist. So the only offensive production we've gotten is from KB/Rizzo/Willson with cameos from Happ and Baez. Our SP has gone backwards both in production and health, our bullpen is trash save CEJ and Wade, who both have the same Achilles heel anyway. Our trade acquisitions have been either disappointing or regretful. Even the bright spots are marred by problems — Bryant hasn't had anyone to knock in and is gonna finish with an RBI total in 60s, and Contreras started cold and missed a month with an injury. Even Baez's defense has gone backwards.
