  1. Get what you can for any of Shota, Boyd, Seiya, Kelly and Happ and seriously consider replacing Hoyer and Counsel. This is entirely unacceptable.
  2. Following yet another loss, I'm on team sell. This is just not a good team. How it's possible to have 2 10 game win streaks and still be a few days from sub .500 I have no idea.
  3. Career criminal, shouldn't have resisted, was high, etc. etc. The usual horsefeathers that people say to diminish that the cops killed him.
  4. Jameson Taillon's rank amongst qualified pitchers ERA- 5.37, 71st out of 72 FIP- 6.58, 72nd out of 72, dead last and by over a full run where 71st is 5.44 xFIP- 4.68, 68th out of 72 xERA- 5.27, 70th out of 72
  5. So realistically they need 2 SP with one of them being a guy to slot into their top 2. They can't get that done without decimating the farm and this team is not one I'm about to set back the farm 3 or 4 years for.
  6. Jim Bowden was also fired for being a terrible GM who treated his rosters like fantasy baseball and skimmed international bonuses, so yeah.....
  7. I was vehemently against them going to Indiana, but if Illinois politicians are this inept, then horsefeathers it, I don't blame them if they move out of state.
  8. I feel like that would be selling really low.
  9. I'm going to be really disgusted if Hartshorn, Pedro, Kepley, etc. are used on some mediocre rental.
  10. Stojakovic withdrew from the draft and will return to Illinois, just about guaranteeing them a top 5 preseason ranking.
  11. That can't be, because Bregman is a clubhouse leader and something something
  12. Things continue like they are and in a week or two, the talk of the town is going to a baseball team that isn't the Cubs. While it wont mean anything major, it would have to at least hurt his pride a little one would think.
  13. I just don't see how someone isn't getting fired after tonight. In a year you claim to be a championship contender, to go out and lose 10 in a row is completely unacceptable.
  14. The problem with that theory is that they've legitimately been awful on defense during this losing streak. Right on cue with that error.
  15. This is going to be a completely lost year for Wiggins and Conrad, isn't it?
  16. Game was over before it started. Jordan Wicks, yet another blown draft pick.
  17. Oh look no Ramirez or Alcantara. Is this the 4th game since Alcantara has been called up and he has 1 PA. Meanwhile Ramirez is hitting well through his first 8 PAs and finds himself on the bench again.
  18. His job might not be immediately in jeopardy, but you don't think Counsell's job is in jeopardy if they lose say another 5 games in a row? I think it very much would be. If you don't fire a coach for losing, in this example, 14 games in a row, then what do you fire them for?
  19. Ok, even after losing 9 in a row, it's still not realistic to talk about selling but damn another 5 or so games and I might be on board.
  20. A couple weeks ago they had the best record in baseball, now they're 2 games out of last place in the division and a half a game away from missing the playoffs entirely if the season ended today.
  21. Wont be any worse than the superior players are accomplishing
