I simply can't fathom giving one cent to this shitbag of an organization. They openly don't care at all about winning. They don't even try to hide it. They embrace mediocre to poor results and in doing so line their pockets where they can.
-
Bulls FO earning those extensions by sitting on their hands.
-
People have forgotten that freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom from consequences and consequences of your actions doesn't mean you're "cancelled" it means you were an horsefeathers and no one wants to associate with you because you're an horsefeathers.
-
Didn't hate it, but it doesn't exactly inject energy into a franchise that so desperately needs it.
-
Another 1st round draft pick who will see little to no time on the court in their 1st year.
-
They chased upside with lots of tools in a guy who can't currently shoot.
-
If they pick Kasparas I'm just out.
-
Sitting on their hands during the draft. I guess that talk of aggressively moving up to target someone like Ace was just talk.
-
I swear the Cubs are giving up 3 or 4 HRs a game over the last week or so.
-
I'm pretty much fully out on Eflin at this point.
-
Cabrera needs to have made his last pitch as a Cub.
-
Not sure I'd call Kelly middle of the road when 4 of the last 6 years he had an ERA under 3.41. I'd actually give up a good (Not Wiggins/Ballesteros) piece for him.
-
Cubs are going to have to address 3B at the trade deadline, there's no getting around it.
-
Gonna be a real short day for Taillon
-
He's also got a .432OPS and 15 wRC+ with RISP and he certainly knows it based on his recent reactions when he fails to come through. For now, I'd like to give him as few PAs as possible with men on base.
-
Dansby continues to sit in the 5 spot and I just don't get it.
-
God I would love a reporter to ask AK or Eversley what they did to warrant receiving an extension. What exactly did they accomplish that earned them a longer contract. I'd so love to hear their justification for it.
-
No elite arms available that aren't in major down years available. At this point just give me a middle of the rotation guy who can eat innings and keep the farm the intact.
-
The Cubs have been weird this year. No long losing streaks and no long winning streaks, just consistently taking 2/3 in most series.
-
The Bulls and the White Sox, two terrible organizations with absolutely no direction and zero urgency to improve. What must it be like to be paid millions of dollars to be truly ****** at your job but it's never in jeopardy of being lost?
-
I wouldn't give them the last 3 pieces in the deal let alone with Horton on top. Even by Bowden standards that's stupidity.
-
If the Cubs are going to grab a pen arm, and at this point it is a luxury and shouldn't be a priority, it needs to be a pen arm that misses a lot of bats. They have a lot of guys who are good to great this year, but they don't have that lockdown monster who can keep guys from putting the ball in play when they need to. The Cub pen is 2nd to last in baseball in K/9 at 7.52. Right now they have 1 pen arm who exceeds 9K/9 and that's Palencia. That's super unusual.
-
We're starting to reach a sample size where it might not just be fluke hot streak and it might be the Cubs have figured something out.
-
I haven't watched ESPN outside of NFL games in decades at this point. There was a time I'd record Sportscenter or Baseball tonight every night to see what was said about the Cubs. Now it's constant bickering and drama with the rare interesting article locked behind a paywall on their website. ESPN could disappear tomorrow and it wouldn't effect my life in the slightest.
-
Get a big win today and seal the series victory with a very good Peralta on the mound tomorrow.
