    Those were two early favorites of mine when I was little. Frank Castillo too, who also passed..... Am I a Sixth Sense?
  2. Post Count Padder
    I was eyeing Joe Ryan in the offseason. He'd be a hell of a pickup at the deadline. But agreed that for now we should work with what we have.
  3. Post Count Padder
    Yeah I got that all backwards. I think I meant to just say Soler hit a homer in the game.
  4. Post Count Padder
    Kyle Hendricks in his last start gave up a homer to Jorge Soler and was replaced in the game by Carl Edwards Jr.

    Lt. Dans getting his groove back would be a nice boost to the lineup.

    brb holding PTR hostage until he signs off on a PCA extension

    I don't know if this has been discussed anywhere else but Nico has not swung and missed at a pitch in the zone all season. 😮 https://blogs.fangraphs.com/nico-hoerner-is-flirting-with-perfection

    Workman traded to the White Sox for the well-traveled Cash Considerations.
  9. Post Count Padder
    I really wanted Workman to work out and am still hoping a minor deal can be made to keep him in the system. But so it goes. Not sure I get the Nicky Lopez love. We already have Berti and Brujan. If it's about 3B or another infielder I'd rather give Triantos a go.

    We are looking into old lefties. Dick Mountain has entered the chat. (as an aside, I miss The Dugout/the internet in 2007).
  11. Post Count Padder
    I mean all jokes aside, he's always had the stuff. We dropped the ball on getting a good lefty this offseason and Little and Wicks pitched like ass the last week. I still believe in both but they didn't earn themselves another look just yet. See if Pomeranz has anything or go back to the drawing board.
  12. Post Count Padder
    Oof. Bummer but he'll be back soon. Full series of moves is: Shaw and Pearson to Iowa Little, Palencia up from Iowa Brujan off the IL to the MLB roster Morgan to IL I was a fan of Morgan coming into the season. His numbers are skewed bc he got absolutely skewered in two outings and one of those is apparently due to injury. Hopefully he gets healthy and comes back well but they probably then keep him in Iowa for a bit. I'm guessing they start Workman at 3B for a couple games but Berti and Brujan get looks too and it's a way to figure out how everyone fits while Shaw gets it together in AAA.

    I hate what happened to Steele but I'm exciting about the possibility of getting MLB innings from Horton this season.
  14. Post Count Padder
    I mean, I hate it didn't pan out but I'm happy for him over there and will be rooting for him. It honestly looked like he might just get released to go overseas or something so like we found out with Canario and Killian and Arias, there likely wasn't a ton of interest. Brujan himself was a former top prospect but I imagine his time with us will be ending shortly.

    Uhhhhhh is this guy legit? Has over 100k followers https://x.com/hgomez27/status/1911207956005220426 Héctor Gómez @hgomez27 SOURCE: Kyle Tucker and the Cubs' potential contract extension is in the range of 10-11 years and $450-500 million. According to the source, the possible extension will not contain any deferred money or opt-out opportunities with a full no-trade clause. First on it: @mikedeportes .
  16. Post Count Padder
    And how could you forget Zach Davies smh
  17. Post Count Padder
    I liked Killian and this is disappointing but he just hasn't looked good for awhile. So the KB trade worked out for no one at all in the end. Cosgrove was great in 2023 and terrible last year. Maybe Cubs see something. And he is a lefty that we lack on the 40 man.
  18. Post Count Padder
    I'm not a moderator but we could probably lock this and start an "in-season transactions" thread and start it with that trade, which is.....questionable for the Brewers but ok with me!
  19. Post Count Padder
    Eugenio Suarez just hit a grand slam. He has 5 hits this season. They are all homers.
  20. Post Count Padder
    He's 0-for-18 to start the season with no BB and 8 Ks. Remains to be seen if eating tape will help.
  21. Post Count Padder
    This should be fun to watch. This will be a big year for Gray. And I am really hoping to see Wiggins break out.
  22. Post Count Padder
    Former Cubs draft pick/decent prospect Jay Jackson retired. He managed to last 17 years in baseball. Pretty impressive.
  23. Post Count Padder
    Cool more money for PTR. Great job fellas. Mission accomplished.
  24. Post Count Padder
    My takeaways from all this are: I can't believe Hearn has been in the system for 6 years. And People on here care about Hearn's ceiling more than his family, probably. I really hope Pat Cline and Tony Richie make it.
  25. Post Count Padder
    So Eli Morgan sticks, as does Gage Workman. Brujan probably gets DFAd in 10 days barring other injuries. I wonder who gets the boot now for Keller. My guess would be Hollowell. And irrationally happy to see Keegan clear waivers. Maybe he'll get another shot later in the season, though that probably would mean things have really taken a turn for the worse.
