  1. More than 5, but you also acted like it was absolutely absurd when he's probably somewhere around #7-9 right now.
  2. There are lists that have him in the mid 30s already, it not that outlandish.
  3. Well he put it in play, that's something I guess
  4. This is a move tha puts a contender over the top, which is not the 2024 Cubs. I'm not ready to give up a top 5, a top 10 and another guy in the 10-20 range for Bednar.
  5. The cost would be enormous, hard pass.
  6. It just makes so much sense. The problem is that with this market it might cost you a guy like Caissie or Ballesteros which would make me quite sad.
  7. My preferences in order 1) Light buying, no big name rentals, possible acquisition of a guy under control beyond 23 2) Go ham with guys on deals beyond 2023 (Alonso, Cease, Sewald, etc.) 3) Sell Stroman, Bellinger, Gomes, etc. 4) Roll with what we have
  8. I suppose with Taillon returning to form and posting a 1.78 ERA over his last 4, it makes it more possible.
  9. They've been .500 or above in every month but that May disaster
  10. Notice no mention of Stroman. They won't actually try and thread the needle where they trade stroman and use the money/prospects to add to this year's team, right?
  11. Aaron Bummer's numbers are so confusing. A 6.69 ERA but 3.01 xERA, 2.40 FIP, 3.30 xFIP and 0 HR/FB%. His strand rate is a crazy low 48.1% and his babip is a high .351. His HARD% and MED% are both down from 2022 and his velocity is pretty much the same from last year. Is he actually getting crazy unlucky or is it something like he's broken when pitching out of the stretch?
  12. I'd so much rather have Tauchmann vs a lefty than Mancini vs anyone.
  13. Hoyer needs to make up his mind and act. If he waits until after Monday's game, the chances of getting anything meaningful done is pretty small and the pool of available players will be nearly dried up.
  14. Ok, go get Alsono, Raley and Sewald then win the division.
  15. 3.5 out of the division and 3 out of the WC, I will vomit if they sell.
  16. If anyone was going to walk the bases loaded it was Palencia, but of course he mows them down
  17. Assad with the bases loaded, well this is definitely going well
  18. I don't get it. You know Alzolay isn't available, Merryweather may not be either, so why take Taillon out early?
