  1. i do overuse ellipses. to me, they are good
  2. kris bryant: no longer heyward (who is also no longer heyward)
  3. brett is quietly pretty terrible about stuff like this. i find him really hard to take. I’m sure he’s been getting a lot of the twitter idiots telling him how bad and awful Q is all year so I don’t blame him for tweeting that. His mentions have to be a cesspool Regardless, it's super odd how personally this guy takes criticism of Cubs players
  4. So there is roughly 2.5 pitchers per team who have pitched enough to qualify on each team. That kind of says a lot on its own. The Cubs got him to give them a lot of quality innings at an affordable price, not be a shutdown ace. Oh I'm not really criticizing the deal, which i would probably do 100 times over (even if I think Q is kind of an obnoxious pitcher to watch,) I just don't think Brett's general attitude of "SEE I TOLD YOU (something) WAS GOOD WHEN YOU SAID IT WAS ACTUALLY BAD" is warranted here.
  5. out of 40 qualified NL starters, Q is 31st in xFIP ... so brett shouldn't start sucking his own popsicle yet
  6. youre telling me players are walking and striking out more these days???
  7. freakin trevor bauer leads all major league pitchers in war
  8. I still overwhelmingly think we will win the division but scary question: if it was today, who do you trust on the Cubs to start a 1 game playoff? Try to get 5 out of Lester then go Cishek, Edwards, Strop, Morrow? lester with monty hot and ready to go at the first sign of trouble
  9. the brewers are a pretty good team and at least one division per year all the way back to 2014 has been won by a team with a lesser RD so it does happen
  10. It has to be either Babe Aguilar or Babe Muncy, right? my guess was suarez
  11. pretty sure the 55 and 57 are full season lines That’s why I put that gif. These guys are on a pace to pass those legends this season my b
  12. quickly glancing at baseball reference for 1955: musial - 6.1 bWAR mays = 9.1 bWAR aaron - 6.3 BWAR or 1957: musial - 6.1 bWAR mays - 8.3 bWAR aaron - 8.0 bWAR as of today: trout - 6.9 bWAR betts - 5.4 bWAR judge - 5.0 bWAR pretty sure the 55 and 57 are full season lines
  13. GET OFF THE INTERNET, FEMALE
  14. who exactly do you envision is on the market that would cost baez or contreras lol
  15. man it's kinda fucked up that everyone knows your specific diagnosis just because you throw a baseball really good
  16. i know that trading almora makes perfect sense and yet man i really like him. and im even aware that i only like him because of his BABIP luck but still, i like him. So don't trade him, or do. Whatever.
  17. part of that has been waiting for this FA class though.
  18. sounds made up
  19. They do have Turner and Seager still, but more importantly, Friedman would rather throw his first born into a volcano than give a 9 figure contract. yeah good point the dodgers are pretty frugal
  20. If the dodgers trade for him you can bet he re-signs there
