Eloy and Cease are at .3 combined for the year -
The Brewers board thinks Schwarbs slide somehow hurt him and caused him to blow out his hamstring. Even though he was running perfectly fine for the first 50 feet or so before he came up lame
-
Q? No he’s fine, was at 104 pitches and gave up hard contact for the 2nd out.
-
Ball 3 and ball 2 both could’ve been strikes, ball 3 especially
-
WTF Wowwwww, that's despicable on the part of the family. What horrible people. What? If there’s someone in the organization enabling drug abuse and prescribing/supplying these guys drugs they don’t need they should absolutely be investigated.
-
He’s definitely the starting SS on the Billy Hamilton vs Cubs All-Star team.
-
He’s definitely upping what he’ll get with this play but I think it will still be reasonable. It would be nice if JD Martinez opts out to help keep his cost down. There’s Nick, Puig, Ozuna, Avi Garcia, Alex Gordon, and potentially JD, Edwin Encarnacion and Nelson Cruz as guys I’d consider kinda in the same pile. I’m hoping we can get him back at 4-5 years in the $15-18 AAV range.

Figure it the horsefeathers out Q
-
Stomp on their horsefeathering throats
-
He’s still an elite defensive CF’er but Lorenzo Cain pretty much turned in to black Almora offensively.
-
Bote and Happ are Donging today
-
Guessing this was a scheduled off day, he also has sucked vs Anderson in his career.
-
Well horsefeathers
-
The 11 over, road, Cubs storming in to Wrigley tomorrow to face the VBs
-
Ninnies

:flythew: Lol, that pretty much nets out last weekend
-
At least rosters expand Sunday so the idiotic roster management can be mitigated

Kris Bryant is awesome and we were always right to love him

If we are handing out a big contract soon, be it KB in house or externally Rendon or Mookie are my picks for the top two guys to target over the next 1-2 years. -
Martinez solely to the pen was pretty much a panic move because the pen sucked early on and was exacerbated when Hicks went down. I don't see any reason that Martinez won't be back in the rotation next year with Gallegos taking over closing duties. Reyes is a pure wildcard though, albeit with tremendous upside. The FSL is notoriously hard on hitters. The league average OPS is .667 to put his .723 in perspective. He's also doing it as one of, if not the youngest players in the league (turned 19 in May, league average age is 22.3) and he's expected to stay at 3b. To get an idea on his power... [tweet] [/tweet]I thought Martinez was moved to the pen because his shoulder is fucked, there were all sorts of comments how it isn't in good enough shape to handle a regular starters workload. In regards to Gorman... Eh, everyone hits for power now. That appears to be his only real tool, the swing and miss has to be a huge concern and lack of walks. He's a really intriguing prospect for sure and the age and level is a good mark for him, but I don't get the top 20-30 prospect in baseball love he's gotten.

I wonder if Schwarbs tweaked something when he jumped in to the wall last night
-
Martinez will start again? He was moved to the pen because he isn’t healthy enough for the SP workload, Alex Reyes’s next healthy season will be his first, Hicks had TJ. Seems awfully optimistic on those guys. I don’t get the Nolan Gorman love, he has a 33% K rate for his minor league career and is at 31% in A ball currently, he doesn’t take walks, doesn’t hit for average and the power just seems okay (15 Dongs in ~130 games this year).

Dylan Cease today, 2IP 10H 8ER 1BB 3K 2HR. His ERA is just under 7, FIP just under 6 and xFIP just under 5 on the year.

Most of the rankings seem to still have the Cubs's system in the bottom 10 or even the bottom 5. Which is BS and probably changes over winter, they probably should be in the 15-20 range and not like 24-30 range they’ve been in by most. They’re starting to have some real talent emerge again down there. There’s a chance we are hovering around a top 10 system next year at this time organically if no big pieces are trade and not by loading it up trading KB or anyone big. -

They were built on a foundation of lies
