    So I have extreme doubts Jed would be into it, but with various rumors that the Cardinals are going to be getting rid of Willson, he does have a no trade clause through 2026, wouldn't he make a lot of sense here? Amaya would be your primary catcher, but Willson could give him a rest when need be and fill in at DH the rest of the time. The last 3 years he has posted 140, 127 and 134 wRC+s. I don't think there'd be much cost at all if the Cubs ate the remainder of his 4/72 contract and that 4th year comes with a 5M buyout so you're only on the line for 3/59.5 if he tanks after a couple years. C- Amaya 1B- Busch 2B- Nico SS- Dansby 3B- Paredes RF- Seiya CF- PCA LF- Happ DH- Willson That's a deep lineup even if it lacks that one super star bat.

    The only thing it helps is not having to drive into Chicago.

    My issue with the Bear experience, which most certainly wouldn't be helped by a new stadium, is that if you're a family of 4 going to see one Bear game, you're in probably $1000 by the time you buy tickets and get to the game whether it's train/cta or parking. Then after you figure food/drink/memorabilia you're at least $1250 in . Even a Cub game is cheap comparatively.

    Did not expect to see Long with the higher EV than Shaw. If there's 55 power in there, that's actually pretty exciting. I was kind of viewing him as a James Loney where most of that iso comes from doubles, but there might be a 20-25 HR bat there.

    Is there something about how Fields throws the ball that causes so many drops?
  6. Tryptamine
    A miracle Fields is up after that hit.

    Also, Justin has no feel on his throws at all. It's just laser beams with zero margin for error.
  8. Tryptamine
    Fields is the same guy he was with the Bears. Fumbles, inaccurate throws, throwing into double coverage, etc. I regret nothing.

    Bears +28 is the 5 best differential in the NFL going into tonight's game.

    Ugh, DJ

    Browns defense is good, but isn't what it was last year and Deshaun Watson is awful, absolutely awful.
  12. Tryptamine
    We don't challenge that, but challenge catches on obvious catches, sure.

    Oline, keep your horsefeathers together
  14. Tryptamine
    These refs suck
  15. Tryptamine
    Well that ended with a thud

    Come on Caleb, you have to get rid of that, you can't expect the lineman to keep in formation that long.

    Pretty stupid by Kramer

    It's supposedly crazy windy, which direction, I don't know.
  19. Tryptamine
    I hate body tackles, use your damn arms
  20. Tryptamine
    Swift going off the last 2 weeks
  21. Tryptamine
    I wish Caleb would be more decisive when it's time to run
  22. Tryptamine
    That works
  23. Tryptamine
    Well that was not good
  24. Tryptamine
    It's not like anyone was open

    All I can say is Jed had better not be in hibernation until nearly January again this offseason.
