Please make this happen Jed. I don't care if you have to throw a combo like one of Alcantara/Caissie and Triantos. Also, I'm laughing at the clueless people in comments saying it would take 5 top 100 prospects for the Cubs to get O'Hoppe. As far as I know, 4 top 100 guys have never been dealt in the same trade let alone 5.

Probably because he got lots of touches in the HoF game.
-
I'd rather skip Assad. The guy has made it through the 5th inning twice in his last 8 starts.

Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 8-10-24
Tryptamine replied to CaliforniaRaisin's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
I stand by my opinion that anyone moving Alcantara down the lists after this season is ignoring 99% of the good to focus on 7 games of awful. .301/.367/..455 line since then while also putting up a very acceptable 9.0BB% and 23.5K% -
I know I shouldn't dwell on it, but man that PCA/Nico confusion loss to STL. They'd be sitting at 60-59 right now and 2.5 games out of the WC.
-
No worries, I'm sure Roberts is completely fine and it's just both of us being blinded by owner greed and imaginary payroll efficiency or whatever the usual diatribe is.
-
Well you were wrong in expecting a 50%K rate for the series. It was actually 60%.
-
How does that not get challenged?
-
Neris, ffs
-
Well this is a first for me.
-
Just once Hector can we have a 1-2-3 inning, please?
-
Nah, that was weird. The last two batters suddenly his stuff looked so much better, particularly that slider.
-
Why Lopez is a trusted set up man is beyond me. Yes the results have been great, but it was obviously a complete fluke. A sub 7K/9, his lowest HR/9, highest LOB%, etc.

Here's how the first round QBs did in their preseason debuts #1 Caleb Williams: 4/7 95 yards , 1 rush 13 yards #2 Jayden Daniels: 2/3 45 yards, 1 rush 3 yards TD #3 Drake Maye: 2/3 19 yards #8 Michael Penix Jr.: 9/16 104 yards #10 J.J. McCarthy: 11/17 188 yards 2 TD 1 INT, 2 rush 18 yards #12 Bo Nix: 15/21 125 yards 1 TD, 3 rush 17 yards

Booker has looked kind of great today.

NIce to see him flashing pop early -
Velus and Scott looking like the same mistake prone guys they've been
-
If he can hold even a 97 wRC+ he's a damn near 4 fWAR player.
-
One thing I immediately noticed, is that Caleb is vastly better than Fields at presnap reads.
-
4/7 and 2 of those were drops, admittedly DJ's was a harder catch. I do like that the ball in the endzone he put it in a safe spot where the defense had zero play on it.
-
Williams has been extremely accurate on the move so far.
-
First impressions. Caleb very good in his first drive, run blocking is good, pass blocking is still ass. They're still awful on 3rd and short.
-
Every part of me is screaming this isn't going to end well.
-
Just go yard and end this horsefeathers show
-
Yup, implosion imminent.
