  1. The throw actually went over 2B, so I really have a hard time just blaming Strop. If Russell reaches his glove out he catches the ball but he pulled back for whatever reason.
  2. Why do pitchers struggle so much to throw the ball to 2B? I swear the odds of an error happening there are so much higher than 1B or 3B.
  3. This is my thinking. If you're going to pull him then at least make it worth it.
  4. Very happy with Heyward's progress lately.
  5. Dylan Bundy, back to back games taking a no hitter into the 6th.
  6. Maybe I saw it wrong, but it looked like he tangled himself up on the swing, it didn't look smooth at all
  7. Grimm never should have lost his spot to begin with. He's been pitching extremely well after struggling early on.
  8. He wouldn't be if stupid Brandon Phillips would stop blocking trades They already had Peraza from the Todd Frazier trade who was block at 2B.
  9. Don't like this at all. There should have been no way they could beat out a Cub offer.
  10. Wood becoming the 6th starter was my first thought.
  11. Joe Smith, why?
  12. lol - with what? Arroyo and Beede is all they have left and I can't imagine that's enough.
  13. What more do you want? We already made our move(s) and are still better They're going to have to make a trade for an SP between now and 2017 opening day anyways, was just hoping it would be one we could use in the 2nd half.
  14. Not going to lie, a bit disappointed if nothing happens with teams like the Mets and Giants getting appreciably better today.
  15. Brewers land Phil Bickford and Andrew Susac, really nice return for the Brewers.
  16. Hopefully, that's not the headliner either. I hope Billy got one of DeLeon, Bellinger, or Verdugo in this.... That is a huge haul for 2 rental players.
  17. I still don't think the OF rumors made sense unless there was a different deal sending out Soler. As it stands, Coghlan, Soler, and Baez(via Bryant/Zobrist in the OF) make a pretty strong combined option that I don't think is appreciably upgraded by Reddick/Bruce. It's the power lefty bat thing. As bad as Heyward and Montero have been, would be nice to have some power beyond Rizzo. Pretty much this. I know the Cubs have hit RHP and LHP pretty much equally this year, but with Heyward,Montero and Coghlan struggling and with TLS in AAA, it sure would be nice to have another lefty bat who could do some damage. I really liked the Blackmon idea.
  18. After all the various tweets and bits of information we get, I'm going to be kind of disappointed if Theo doesn't add that lefty OFer they've been looking for.There has got to be something better than Coghlan out there for a fairly reasonable price. Obviously I'd like a SP too, but that can be done in the offseason.
  19. Not a strike the first time, but apparently a strike that time. Nice consistency.
