At least we’re helping this dude get his ERA down -
This thread is about Trevor Bauer getting worse and I'd argue Trevor Bauer with cholera is an improved version of Trevor Bauer
-
Until we trade Imanaga for some teenagers and Seiya has his annual oblique injury and can't play
-
I think its more about leverage when negotiating that second contract. Caleb gets a lot more leverage if he's negotiating knowing the Bears risk losing him if they can't come to terms because the franchise tag isnt a last ditch option. Probably would never come to that but all about extracting whatever leverage you can get.
-
lol...sure its nothing but
-

That’s a classic, miss that gif
-
I’d argue Steele should absolutely be an All Star even despite the injury but I get why he might have been more under the radar this year.
-
Yeah which is why I found it weird that they haven’t signed yet. There’s gotta be some other things besides salary that can be negotiated that they are hung up on. either way the Hard Knocks thing is a good point. No way the McCaskeys allow the holdout of their high profile number 1 draft pick (and slightly lesser extent their other top 10 pick) become a Hard Knocks storyline. Caleb’s camp certainly knows this.
-
So should we be at all concerned that Caleb and Rome haven’t signed contracts yet? Like I’m not worried they won’t sign, but rookies report on Tuesday and we obviously want them to get as much practice time as possible in camp. I thought NFL rookie contracts were pretty straightforward so wondering what the hang up is.
-
Add another one to the books! I lost track of the number of losses when leading in the 8th inning or later but it’s historically high
-
I’m sick and horsefeathers tired of Seiya striking out looking with a runner on 3rd and less than 2 outs. It’s unacceptable how frequently it happens. How have they it figured out how to get him to stop doing that? You’re hitting 3rd dude, drive in runs
-
I’m sorry but if the pitcher commits the error those runs should be earned. Wes only gets 2 ER for that inning because of an error he made? Lmao
-
Of course the tying run is up
-
Yeah that's why I added "but seriously" afterwards lol
-
Tying run on deck with wild Neris coming in. We've seen this movie before.
-
He's got the pressure of trying to keep the scoreless streak going. But seriously, he's really struggling with his command.
-
Feels like this inning has taken forever and its only been 3 batters so far.
-
I'm nervous about every Cubs bullpen inning.
-
Oof 4 pitch walk is not a great way to start
-
It's crazy how it just happens out of the blue. Baseball is a weird sport and the Cubs are a weird team that seem to slump and streak together.
-
Baseball gods realized that Little was starting to figure it out and had to put a stop to that. Can't have healthy and reliable bullpen arms on the Cubs
-
Oh sweet another bullpen injury
-
I was a pretty big Kyle defender and even I gave up on him quite awhile ago. While this is an awesome development, it doesn't really surprise me given what we've seen from Kyle over the last decade.
-
Michael Busch is a great reminder that sometimes you just need to let guys figure horsefeathers out. He was a complete disaster at 1B to start the season, now he's rating as average defensively. He looked so damn lost offensively for a good chunk of the season and while there's maybe still BABIP concerns there, he's got an .853 OPS for the season and on pace for more than 4 wins this year. Basically what I'm saying is, stick with Miles Mastrobuoni as your everyday 3B. He's gotta figure it out eventually (ok I'm not saying that)
