That's more of a function of how good the Cubs starters are -
He's not going to get starts next year over Amaya and Kelly no matter how much he improves in the offseason. I just don't think you become a good catcher in an offseason he's probably already older than you'd like to develop into a MLB caliber one. The Cubs value how a catcher handles the staff too much (see letting Contreras walk as evidence). Mo is a DH.
-
I just can't blame Jed for not wanting to give up a ton of assets for a guy who had been as hot and cold (and mostly cold) at that point as Alcantara was
-
I would like Schwarber too, but are you assuming that Tucker is going somewhere else? I think he will because someone is going to pay Tucker despite his uneven 2025 and it's not going to be Jed. I also don't see Tucker signing a shorter deal either.
-
I don't blame Jed for not getting another starter at the deadline in retrospect considering what the asking prices were for the top shelf ones. Kelley and Bieber were pretty good, but not great additions. The Cubs staff has been really good in the second half. It's the hitting that went from the 3rd most runs scored before the All Star break to 13th. I'm more worried about the top and middle of the order than the pitching staff.
-
That would be dumb
-
So #1 in ERA is awesome, but #2 is just fine. Until today the pitching was not the problem with the team. It was the hitting and will still most likely be this series.
-
16 runs, but it's definitely a possibility
-
They tried to, but Counsell wouldn't sign and wanted to leave
-
Second best starter ERA post All-Star game
-
Can the Cubs forfeit this game?
-
Didn’t the Cubs have the best rotation in baseball post All-Star game? Horton goes down and a bad decision by Counsell is the reason for this.
-
This is not Jed’s fault. This is mostly on Counsell and the rest on Boyd.
-
Yes it is
-
We are going to see Ben Brown today
-
Ump missed 2/3 so far
-
Now he does. The chaw throw was the clincher.
-
It’s been rough? Lol.
-
Counsell knows this is almost all on him
-
And 3 doubles
-
Forgot how to play baseball
-
Counsell is the team’s weakest link
-
Should have used Rea today. Counsell always the smartest guy in the room.
-
Counsell isn’t putting Brown in that spot
