1 and15 then 2 runs putting them into 3rd and long. You cannot do that in this offense.
-
Because he was out of the pocket
-
I swear Fields gets late hit at least once a game
-
Over/under 100 passing yards for the game?
-
17 passing yards at half. All of it on a broken dump off. Remarkable.
-
So correct me if I'm wrong, but the Bears have attempted 1 pass beyond 5 yards.
-
Less than 1 half into the season and I'm 100% over Getsy.
-
Even with this super weak schedule, I don't know if more than 3 or 4 wins is possible.
-
Hand off up the gut on 3rd and 9. Nothing has changed at all.
-
Looks exactly like last year so far.
-
Thankfully Lance sucks too
-
This is feeling real familiar. The defense protecting everything within 10 yards and saying beat us long if you can.
-
Fields looks like hot garbage so far
-
Admittedly, I've spent very little time following baseball this season so I hadn't realized that the Dodgers are on pace to win 114 games. The Padres, who are 13 games over .500, are 19.5 games back in the division.
-
I could look very dumb about this, but I think we could see Willson's market fail to materialize. It only takes one team to fall in love or have money burn a hole in their pocket, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if he doesn't beat Grandal(4/73) in years or dollars. It certainly seems like the lack of a trade market means the industry as a whole aren't super enthused with Contreras. I'd happily take him back if he falls to the 3/60 or 4/75 range.
-
I'm hoping it players I wont care about, but it's inevitably going to be someone important and I'll just become more disillusioned.
-
Fun with numbers that mean basically nothing because of sample size, but since Franmil joined the Cubs 30 PA .367/.367/.733 line good for a .465 wOBA and 201 wRC+ It would help this team out so much if they cold turn him into something like a 130 wRC+ DH. Last I saw the league average for a DH was 107 wRC+.
-
I'd say that those lost pitchers were nearly mitigated by having Steele and Thompson pitch way above any realistic expectations. Add in 53.1 innings of 3.88 ERA from a guy who was supposed to be a AAA wash out in Sampson and if anything I'd say they've gotten pretty lucky
-
Am I the only confused as horsefeathers after reading this post? I feel like this is the case more often than not after reading a Tom post.
-
By which he means getting 2nd/3rd tier FA and hyping them like they're 1st tier.
-
A little late to the party Sage, but yes Nagy was absolutely horrendous.
-
How could using a using a deceased celebrity's likeness for profit possibly be construed as offensive? In fact, I think the hologram should wear a Budweiser shirt too for a little extra ad revenue. Then we'll bring in Ron and Ernie to sing the 7th inning stretch presented by Wintrust.
-
I just thought I'd revisit this treasure. He's putting up a .237/.274/.374 line good for a 72 wRC+ on the season and a 39 wRC+ since this tweet on June 29th . Maybe, just maybe, it wasn't the Cubs and you just aren't very good.
-
I don't know that he'll get much hype. For guys who provide 90+% of their value via the bat, they have to absolutely destroy the league to gain any real notoriety and even then it's the guys with a real plus tool as well.
-
If Mooney gets hurt, this could legitimately be a historically awful WR squad. Exactly what you'd want when you're seeing if you have a franchise quarterback or not.
