    Eh, you're probably right but C- Amaya 1B- Busch 2B- Nico SS- Dansby 3B- Parades RF- Bellinger CF- PCA LF- Happ DH- Seiya It still feels like it needs another bat
  2. Tryptamine
    This is the big take away. Yeah, Parades is probably not a 4 fWAR guy with the Cubs, but given how shallow the 3B talent is across MLB, even as a 3 fWAR guy he's probably a top 10 3B.
  3. Tryptamine
    So, who's the RF to chase in trades/FA now? Tyler O'Neil would be a good get. He's injury prone, but when he's on the field he can rake.
  4. Tryptamine
    I'm actually most saddened by losing Bigge who I think ends up being a dominant reliever, assuming he stays healthy.
  5. Tryptamine
    I love how many people are calling the Cubs dumb for buying when everyone they're acquiring is under control for multiple years.
  6. Tryptamine
    Other than getting great value, I love that this let's Seiya become your DH and gives you the option to move Nico in the offseason.
  7. Tryptamine
    That is a damn steal
  8. Tryptamine
    What a steal if it Morel+Bigge+ someone not in the top 5
  9. Tryptamine
    No Horton preferably no Shaw and I'm good
  10. Tryptamine
    Nico had a 3-0 green light?
  11. Tryptamine
    Last year he put up an 115 wRC+ at A ball, at age 18, at a premium defensive position and projects to have an above average to plus hit tool and above average power. This year has been slightly disappointing and he'll probably repeat A+ unless he finishes hot.

    I wouldn't be shocked by this at all. Also, 55 hours left Jed, can we not wait until the last few hours before deciding to do something? Thanks.
  13. Tryptamine
    He was absolutely awful early on, but he's been tearing it up lately and look at this gem tonight
  14. Tryptamine
    I never said they weren't, but he drags things out both in trades and in FA.
  15. Tryptamine
    Showcasing Neris or just because he was already up?
  16. Tryptamine
    No, I'm watching other teams fill needs and take options off the board while Jed does his usual slow play schtick. Putting your back up against the wall of the deadline works against him just as much as it helps.
  17. Tryptamine
    "Patrick Wisdom might have just saved the season". Nope, it's dead, but that was fun anyway.
  18. Tryptamine
    Good stuff Wisdom
  19. Tryptamine
    I know they don't have much to sell off, but good god Jed are we really keeping this entire horsefeathers show together and just hoping for better results in '25?
  20. Tryptamine
    I mean, he's a slighty worse hitting, slightly worse defensive Seiya. Either Seiya needs to be replaced in RF by a guy who can not be a total liability out there or Seiya needs to stay in RF but the DH has to be a significant enough bat to make tolerating Seiya's defense more palatable.
  21. Tryptamine
    So after an admittedly brief review, it looks like the slider and curve are nails, but the fastball is ass. This actually makes me kind of hopeful, This is something I think is right up the Cub pitch lab's alley.
  22. Tryptamine
    I get it, it's not a huge exciting move, but there is upside in this move to become a backend of the bullpen arm for very little prospect cost. Getting a guy who could be a part of your 2025 roster for some prospect fodder is a good thing.
  23. Tryptamine
    Looks like Agustin Ramirez is the guy headlining the package. I actually quite liked him as an option if Taillon had ended up heading to New York.
  24. Tryptamine
    It's nothing major for sure, but this is the exact kind of guy who could become a Merryweather for us in 2025. The pen was already looking very exciting for 2025, if they can get Pearson ironed out, we could be talking one of the better pens around.
  25. Tryptamine
    For the love of god Tom, this is exactly why people give you horsefeathers.
