    As if I needed further reason not to watch the White Sox or the Bulls.
  2. Tryptamine
    well that was quick

    Surely Dansby not making contact wont screw the Cubs, right?

    I wonder if the Cubs don't say to themselves, hey the type of pitching we really need isn't out there, so maybe we just make an absolutely insane offense and bring in Bregman. Then they just fill the rotation with lower cost guys who are FAs at the end of the year. Bregman is almost certainly opting out after this year so there isn't much commitment.

    Baltimore is suddenly white hot, albeit a lot of it is against some pretty bad teams. They're now 10-3 over their last 13 and back to a bad but not horrific 11 under .500.

    God would i be pissed off if it cost 2 top 10 players in a pretty good farm system to get a guy who has been awful this year and super mediocre last year because he was last good in 2022. This isn't too far off from wanting to throwing top prospects away on Luis Robert. It just doesn't make any sense to me.

    Remember when Luzardo led the NL in ERA just 2 starts ago.......

    I'm gonna throw out a hot take. What about Sugano? I'm not saying he'd be the only move, but he'd be an interesting pick up as a 2nd pitcher. He's a FA after 2025 and I think his peripherals would absolutely suppress any return he'd bring. He's a really strange pitcher. His peripherals suggest he shouldn't be anywhere near this successful and yet he shows no signs of slowing down. I do expect some regression but his abnormally low babip and abnormally high lob% really aren't terribly out of line with average numbers in Japan. He seems to do an extremely good job at limiting hard contact and walks almost no one. With the Cub defense behind him, I'd be intrigued to pick him up if the going rate is like someone like Kipp.

    The cost would certainly be high, but how many teams can offer what the Cubs can as far as multiple immediately MLB ready players that are legit prospect.

    Crush the nationals playoff hopes and don't leave Washington without Gore.
  14. Tryptamine
    Good luck earning that back without any subsidies

    Um, isn't that the site that the WSox wanted for their new stadium? If so, that's hilarious.
  16. Tryptamine
    Which team has even close to the resources he does?
  17. Tryptamine
    Sorry, I'm not anointing him as a pretty good GM until he actually makes the playoffs.
  18. Tryptamine
    Yeah we're at the point where I think Long, Wiggins and Ballesteros are the 3 most likely staying on this roster. I could easily see Alcantara and Caissie as trade bait and sadly this is more or less a lost year so far for Triantos. I'm undecided on how I feel about Rojas.
  19. Tryptamine
    Rockies are now 9-50. That's a .153 W%. That puts them on pace to go 25-137 this year. Last year's historically awful WSox team went 41-121(.253) Just to avoid losing 100 games this year the Rockies will need to go 54-49 the rest of the way.
  20. Tryptamine
    I've had him on ignore so long I didn't even know this happened.
  21. Tryptamine
    results aside, I am really not impressed with what I'm seeing out of Brasier.
  22. Tryptamine
    I don't even know how any publication could possibly justify him not being top 100 at this point. It's funny that Long and Wiggins might be the best Cub prospects that haven't touched MLB yet.
  23. Tryptamine
    Yes, the pitching was good the offense was not. It's like you're all trying to miss the original point on purpose. "The offense better wake the hell up" is what i prefaced the whole argument with.
  24. Tryptamine
    Yes, but you know my point was they are playing ****** and got bailed out by playing a historically ****** team.
  25. Tryptamine
    This offense better wake the hell up. 11 runs in 4 games. If not for playing the Rockies, they could very easily be on a 4 game losing streak.
