  1. Please delete this. I'd prefer kids not become enamored with our game based on histrionics.
  2. Oh, sure, now you are back. Just kidding. Welcome back!!!!! Me, trying to get back on the Cubs' bandwagon:
  3. This is a challenge for him. He has to miss a month of playing baseball. He's the real victim. horsefeathers him. horsefeathers Joe Maddon. horsefeathers the Cubs. horsefeathers Bob Nightengale for this [expletive]. As others have said, he hasn't owned up to anything. It's all "me, me, me." This is just a distraction to him. He's learned nothing. And he remains the biggest piece of horsefeathers. I am viscerally angry thinking about him in a Cubs uniform again. Don't do it. Get rid of his ass.
  4. The ground ball thing likely falls in with what Bertz is talking about with the bad contact outside the zone, too.
  5. You can find what I believe you are looking for at Baseball Savant. Search by avg. exit velocity and then click on zone profile. 2015: 2016: 2017: 2018: 2019: So, yeah, there have been some gains inside the zone. I think he's certainly dialed things back a little bit since his rookie year in order to make more contact. A few things tick out: Too many grounders so far. Also, no infield hits for a guy that ranked 2nd of qualified hitters in IFH% between 2015-2018. The BABIP should go up with more ABs. And hopefully he starts getting it in the air more and his ISO gets back up to a 2017-level.
  6. A faster fall from grace than the Cubs for the two-time defending champions.
  7. And, yeah, I assumed Cain would break down and it would be a normal surplus value early/overpay later-type deal. But, at this point, they could pay him that salary through 2035 and he'd be worth it.
  8. Probably a glitch in the system and he's running so slowly that his movement isn't registering and Statcast assumes it is the second baseman running out to make the catch.
  9. Chatwood and Heyward are the Cubs' two best players.
  10. If only there were an outfielder a year older than those two that was hitting .278/.418/.544 that we could have added a couple months ago.
  11. I'm shooting for a 30-page gain in the next week.
  12. [tweet]https://twitter.com/JATayler/status/1120092212929413120[/tweet]
  13. The real Duke Silver is a much better good luck charm for the Cubbies than this guy.
  14. Enough of the Schwarber thread. This guy is slugging .196.
  15. Drop Aaron Judge and add Cody Bellinger.
  16. Jesus rose so Tyler Chatwood could walk.
  17. If you'd like to hate him more, then you should check out his numbers.
  18. I'm waiting to throw it back in his face after we lose tomorrow.
