    Flush this one out the system and come ready to play vs horsefeathers players tomorrow and do what we should do vs them. Go Rats, hopefully we are raising the Jolly Roger tonight

    It sure is. But we still generally got the super offense and like Schwarber still hit what, his like 95th percentile of outcomes?? Career OPS over .800, career war over 6.5 in only ~2 seasons worth of games played, still only 25.

    He’s tied for 7th best OPS of qualified LFs this year with Benintendi at .828 and 10 more points would put him top 5. I know we want more but a low-mid .800 ops is plenty productive in LF this year. Sure, but a productive Just a Dude is still Just a Dude, and the hope was that he was going to be more than that. Plus is overall value this year is helped by likely unreliable defensive value. It's unfortunate that he had both such a catastrophic injury and such a down 2017, because it basically left the Cubs in the position to either sell way low or ride out and see what they had, and as such maybe not do things like go all out for a player Yelich. Oh for sure. But his bat is still good compared to the position is all I was trying to illustrate and he has pedigree to be better than this. Overall value considering everything like defense, sure he’s still just likely a dude who’s ceiling is 4 to 5 WAR but the bat is still pretty good compared to the position which is what I thought we were mostly talking about. And again, like I said, we all want and hope for more..... but add Bryce along with KB, Rizzo, Javy you just need guys like Schwarber, Heyward, Willy, Zobrist to be regular ~2-3 war dudes to have a great offense and there’s still upside for some of those guys but they don’t NEED to be worth or depended on for more than a few wins

    These second half samples shouldn’t matter more than other things. That OPS shouldn’t outweigh he’s still over .800 on the year and for his career and that includes his essentially rehab months in MLB in the first half last year. There’s a lot more things to pull from to project a low-mid .800 OPS guy moving forward with upside from that in there than making assumptions off this 2nd half sample here. Well I didn’t say he was worthless just wasn’t a budding superstar we once thought he was on the way to. If he’s an .820s OPS guy that’s fine but not exceptionally productive for a corner OF right? Could be wrong there He’s tied for 7th best OPS of qualified LFs this year with Benintendi at .828 and 10 more points would put him top 5. I know we want more but a low-mid .800 ops is plenty productive in LF this year.

    The first two are still plenty plausible. Especially the KB thing.... he was MVP level before being hit in the head and the other injury and Schwarber is still plenty productive and I still think there’s more in there for him. Eh maybe. .720 OPS in the second half facing almost exclusively righties. He’s had his moments but he’s been pretty boom or bust for awhile now These second half samples shouldn’t matter more than other things. That OPS shouldn’t outweigh he’s still over .800 on the year and for his career and that includes his essentially rehab months in MLB in the first half last year.

    Well, on to Saturday. Suck less idiots and go Rats

    Smith, Palka And LaMarree (what the horsefeathers) are 6-6 today with 2 2Bs, 2HRs and all 7 RBIs. Great job horsefeathering scouting department once again scouting horsefeathers players and pitchers executing against them.
  9. Cubswin11
    horsefeathers this team, horsefeathering embarrassing the offense can’t hit this horsefeathers pitcher and get out horsefeathers batters
  10. Cubswin11
    horsefeathers, Rizzo hit that hard
  11. Cubswin11
    Score some damn runs idiots
  12. Cubswin11
    Get smacked around by AAAA players back to back games. Nice job scouting dept
  13. Cubswin11
    Score 10 this inning
  14. Cubswin11
    Kevan Smith And Ryan Lamar. Okay
  15. Cubswin11
    Tater Skin!

    I will not be liking that post and thank you for pointing it out before when I accidentally liked his other post and I think 2 others. I don’t want that on my NSBB posting resume
  17. Cubswin11
    horsefeathers, I am in a meeting trying to kinda discreetly scroll through and keep accidentally hitting likes with my fat thumb on my phone. I don’t “like” what that poster(s) posted.
  18. Cubswin11
    yeah we got about 8 months to criticize Brewers fans for giving Hader a standing ovation before we (we meaning our fan base not our segment which is much less tone deaf) look like hypocrites. Russell is a pretty easy non-tender candidate imo
  19. Cubswin11
    F Machado, we’re fine with Baez/Zobrist/Bote. #BryceForever just sign like Jordy Mercer or Hechaverria for backup SS bench player
  20. Cubswin11
    Ricketts, Maddon, Jed and Theo are all meeting right now apparently
  21. Cubswin11
    I'm not sure that they can suspend him without pay if he hasn't been actually charged with a crime. Yeah that might be a little hard to do, putting him on the restricted list is probably the thing to do
  22. Cubswin11
    Send him away, Theo [tweet] [/tweet]
  23. Cubswin11
    horsefeathers this guy, get him off the team
  24. Cubswin11
