    I still think it's probably 20% or less that he's moved, but the odds definitely climbed up a bit today.
  2. Tryptamine
    PCA just has game breaking speed. He has to do so little offensively to be tremendously valuable. If he could even be a .700 OPS guy he'd probably put up 4+ fWAR with his defense and baserunning.
  3. Tryptamine
    Unless he's waiving his opt out clause, why would he?, I see no purpose in this.
  4. Tryptamine
    Not sure how he hasn't been promoted to AAA yet.
  5. Tryptamine
    Well when he's demanding a contract extension if he's traded to a team that plays in October, I'd say he was the one who made that decision for the White Sox.
  6. Tryptamine
    This gives the Cubs a ton of money to fill RF/C in the offseason. Not that I believe it's going to happen, but they'd seriously have Soto money available now that 3B is filled relatively cheaply.
  7. Tryptamine
    Not Cub related, but it's still fun, Crochet got lit up a bit and the White Sox are down 6-1, 12 outs from their 14th loss in a row.
  8. Tryptamine
    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
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. Tryptamine
    I'm actually most saddened by losing Bigge who I think ends up being a dominant reliever, assuming he stays healthy.
  12. Tryptamine
    I love how many people are calling the Cubs dumb for buying when everyone they're acquiring is under control for multiple years.
  13. 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.
  14. Tryptamine
    That is a damn steal
  15. Tryptamine
    What a steal if it Morel+Bigge+ someone not in the top 5
  16. Tryptamine
    No Horton preferably no Shaw and I'm good
  17. Tryptamine
    Nico had a 3-0 green light?
  18. 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.
  19. Tryptamine
    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.
  20. Tryptamine
    He was absolutely awful early on, but he's been tearing it up lately and look at this gem tonight
  21. Tryptamine
    I never said they weren't, but he drags things out both in trades and in FA.
  22. Tryptamine
    Showcasing Neris or just because he was already up?
  23. 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.
  24. Tryptamine
    "Patrick Wisdom might have just saved the season". Nope, it's dead, but that was fun anyway.
  25. Tryptamine
    Good stuff Wisdom
