Astros (Lambert) vs Cubs (Imanaga): 5/24/26, 1:20pm
Rex Buckingham replied to Brock Beauchamp's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
A lead was fun while it lasted -
That's enough Cubs for tonight
-
Thats an awful call
-
Trade deadline position: Buyers. Chicago is already making phone calls regarding starting pitching help, and I would expect between now and the trade deadline they land a starter because they have the prospects to make a deal. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7287091/2026/05/19/mlb-team-outlook-trade-deadline-quarter-mark/ Something we probably assumed, but nice to hear they are already making some calls and being proactive rather than waiting

3 game losing streak led to 10 game winning streak, what will the 4 game losing streak lead to?
-
Per this article from Scott Powers, top 6 winger https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7260123/2026/05/14/blackhawks-roman-kantserov-nhl-khl-stats/ 36 goals in the KHL, most ever over there by an under-23 player. Maybe hoping for a Patrick Sharp-level offensive threat beside Bedard
-
His offensive production at his age in the KHL is comparable to Kaprizov

Cubs Add Liam Hendriks to Bullpen Mix on MiLB Deal
Rex Buckingham replied to Brian Kelder's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I believe Hendriks is a noted potty mouth on the mound, but I think that's about it -
I wish Maton didn't always look like someone told him his family is being held hostage amd he has to pitch well to save them. But at least this time he saved them.
-
Can Caleb Wilson or Cam Boozer be the best player on a title contender?
-
Ok, that's fair... wild term to use
-
It appears you have a problem with this strategy... I personally think it is better to have our closer available in October than to win an extra game or two in May and have his arm fall off, but what do I know?
-
Pete!!!!!!!!
-
Can't send Rea out again, so let's gst some runs here and help the pen
-
Busch!
-
That's fair. I just feel like as a fan, I would be desperate for my team to move the needle in that direction. And of course, I am not impressed with Simpson. But I'm just a nobody spending my Thursday on the couch watching, so what do I know?
-
Team that comes up just short of the Super Bowl takes someone at 13 that absolutely does not move them closer this year.

It is way too early to care about the results for other teams. June is when I think it becomes worth comparing, July I look for trade (buying/selling) purposes, and August start to actually track competitors if in a close race
-
It's not my money... spend it

The problem is, Javier Assad and Collin Rea and Jameson Taillon can help you win plenty of regular season games... but they arent playoff starters. Horton was a guy you hoped would be ready to give you 5+ in a playoff start. Those guys might give you 3.
-
Great effort by Assad
-
you wrote that he unequivocally should have challenged all 4, and yet one of them was definitely a strike and the model you're using said 2 would have been bad challenges
