yeah, it's not like the cubs opted not to sign him or he spurned the cubs for another team or he demanded a trade. like, the cubs had him. and they willingly just gave him away. so wild.
the 14 year olds the cubs got in the darvish trade better end up being studs because that trade looks real embarrassing right now. pissed away a last chance at a WS with this core.
really should have given kimbrel the night off last night. had a 3 run lead, chafin faced just one batter in the 8th and i think the first couple hitters in the 9th were lefties/switch hitters.
the throwing the ball to the catcher part was the capper after a run of many, many bad decisions. the guy sliding headfirst into home is completely meaningless. he is one inch away from tagging baez and he instead flips it to the catcher.
