  1. 4 hits in the last 12 innings. The offense just doesn’t seem to be playing that well lately but they are still averaging close to 5 runs per game which is impressive.
  2. Well after the first 2 batters he induced weak contact though walked 1.
  3. Actually we’ve been starting well lately and then letting them back into games
  4. 1st inning Kyle Hendricks is rivaling 1st inning Drew Smyly
  5. Assuming this is Wicks' 40 man spot? (assuming they keep 2 spots open for the offseason unless they really call up PCA)
  6. Yeah I've seen rumors that there is a framework worked out for a trade w the Bears if the Chiefs cant work out an extension with him but didn't post it because the sources were sketchy, But obviously DeFalco has quite a bit more legitimate. Of course this is a rando that is saying that DeFalco said something
  7. Yeah that was honestly bizarre and it does throw off perceptions of how Poles operates a bit. He also could have likely gotten a 3rd 1st round pick in the trade for 1.01 but went for an established player in DJ Moore (which I'm not saying was the wrong move at all, just goes a bit against a hyperfocus of building through the draft). Yeah I dunno I guess I retract my original statement but I still believe its unlikely the Bears trade for JT.
  8. Yeah, even though I’ve been bitching about struggling against bad teams during this stretch, I’d be more than satisfied with 8-4 during these 12 games. So far we’re 6-3
  9. Winning ugly is better than losing pretty
  10. Dammit Boog I was doing something in the kitchen and heard him get excited about Bellingers hit only to see it was a well hit but ultimately harmless fly ball
  11. Remember when the Cubs scored 36 runs over a 2 game span earlier this month?
  12. Come on Tauchman, unnecessary extra base Edit: then nice jump to get the 3rd out
  13. 13 of last 15 Cubs retired since the hit to make it 3-0
  14. This is the pitcher who was on the Dodgers that we hit like 5 HRs against back in April
  15. Feels like we’ve blown quite a few multiple run leads lately.
  16. Jed says Smyly will be moved to the bullpen. I’d post the Twitter link but it’s annoying posting Twitter links these days
  17. Sounds like the starters will play some this weekend. Makes me a little nervous considering at least 3 starters on the o-line will be out and Buffalo is also playing their starters but I guess a good test of depth since I don’t think we know for sure how long Jenkins and Wright will be out.
  18. Really doesn't make any sense at all. Seems like a move Pace would make, not Poles. But even if the report is true, it could have been Poles reaching out and saying 'just checking what is your asking price' and once they say '2 first round picks' or some crap like that, the discussion is over. I highly doubt they would trade one of their 1sts next year for a RB even one that is as good and young as Taylor. And then on top of that sign him to a crazy extension (im assuming that's what this is all about right?). I personally think Poles wants those two 1st round picks in case Fields does not make the leap this year. And if he does he has the ability to get 2 high value players that will be more meaningful to the future of this franchise than a RB. Also I don't think the Colts are serious about trading him. This is the same crap Ekeler pulled last year and the Chargers also gave him permission to seek a trade.
  19. What is that like 6-7 months recovery if it needs surgery? Or is another TJS still in play?
  20. dunno he writes for a couple Colts websites it looks like, but ill be honest I have no idea if hes legitimate and sometimes my mind forgets that blue checkmark is more likely to mean they arent legit these days lol
