  1. Clutch homer by Willy. Too bad Wisdom followed by whiffing on two center-cut pitches.
  2. Marlins in black and Cubs in dark blue makes this look like a spring training game
  3. I don't know that anyone objects to his drug use. They're objecting to the fact that while some players are given lengthy suspensions for drug use, Rodgers can openly brag about it and receive no punishment
  4. What a stupid extension that was.
  5. It’s going to be hilarious when the Padres lose in the first round.
  6. Deadline day is very frustrating to follow when you’re 6 hours ahead of the EST. I keep wondering why there’s no news and then have to remind myself that it’s not even noon yet
  7. Take your time! Life comes first
  8. I really feel like he was a bit lost for awhile after the league made their adjustments to him. But he looks a lot better now. I feel like he will be a very productive piece going forward. I’m sure it was frustrating to be getting the Schwarber treatment by the umps as well. Batters with good eyes at the plate shouldn’t be punished for taking close pitches.
  9. Same. It would be one thing if it was just the Cubs, or only a few teams like them, but basically it's like the whole damn thing is broken. It feels like when football pushed me away almost a good ten years ago now. There's just no "good team" out there; they're all run by total horsefeathers. I have some bad news for you about TV, Hollywood, book publishers…
  10. I’m sure the deeply racist fan base would make Soto feel right at home and want to sign a lengthy extension
  11. The wrong date on the game thread is killing me
  12. YouTube videos don’t show up at all on mobile. Just a big blank space where the embedded video should be.
  13. MLB’s problem is that they are stubbornly regional in their marketing. Some of this is due to season length, but unless there’s a transcendent player like Derek Jeter who happens to capture a national audience, MLB is content to not push, say, Jose Ramirez anywhere outside of Cleveland.
  14. I mean, sure, but I’ll watch an NHL game over an NBA game 10 times out of 10. NBA basketball just doesn’t appeal to me anymore.
  15. I'll go with Brandon Drury (CIN)
  16. Do you have an updated link for bench players. I'm still being directed to last year's list
  17. I'm shocked you guys even watch these games anymore.
  18. Somehow there are still two teams worse than the Cubs (though they are officially tied with the Reds for last place in the central)
  19. The Cubs' current winning pct . is .001 higher than the 2012 team, which is the worst team in my 47 years.
  20. Poor Jim Riggleman had some horrendous teams in the mid 90s. That team that started 0-14 ended with a better winning % than this 2022 dumpster fire
  21. Is this the worst Cubs team we’ve seen in our lifetimes?
  22. We should all be so lucky as to be in a position where we can turn down 0.01% of that type of money
  23. Ross was just extended, so he's a sunk cost. Maybe some coaches get fired to show that they're doing something
