We went from “Pressly has actually been good since the game he gave up 8 ER without recording an out” to “Pressly has been DFAd” very quickly.
-
Alternate title was going to be: Neris Part 2: Astros Boogaloo
-
Boog: And it looks like Craig is coming out to get Rea after allowing the first 3 men to reach. Thank you for your time Jed! Top 4, 8-3 Reds, we’ll be back.
-
Man to think I told all the people I thought were freaking out about not making a move earlier today to chill out and that this version of Jed was not going to ignore a gaping hole on the roster.
-
So what we learned and/or my thoughts (my assumptions could be wrong): -We’re not feeling great about keeping Tucker beyond this year -Jed is unwilling to overpay to make moves to shore up a gaping hole on an otherwise strong even in a year when one of their best players is set to walk after the years -The Cubs really believe in their pitching infrastructure to fix the guys they do have, and expect Taillon and Assad to be a big boost to rotation -Comfortable with a Shota, Boyd, Horton, Taillon playoff rotation -Beyond horsefeathered if either Shota and Boyd go down -Be wary about hoping our GM is aggressive in going for it in the future -Castro was a really helpful move for the offense
-
Triantos scratched and no news on Ryan are all we have left lol
-
Gore not traded
-
And….time
-
Boob says Alcantara is staying put
-
James Triantos was a late scratch I think....Castro return or something else?
-
Feel like they would have worked something out when they got Castro if the Cubs were in it but maybe not:
-
"All-Star" that played 158 games and had a 1.6 bWAR lol Not dogging on the move, just funny that he made the ASG
-
Starting pitching statistics since June 1:
-
Jeff Passan just said its done
-
-
-
Jed has 3 deals done but he's asked the other teams to hold off announcing because he's having too much fun watching Cubs fans implode in anger.
-
Trying to decide which would be better... no news at all about the Cubs, or rumors that say things like 'the Cubs have had discussions with a number of teams on controllable starting pitchers, but the cost has been above what the Cubs are willing to pay at this point.'
-
Damn sounds like Cease to Houston has traction. Wild
-
Damn
-
-
I'm guessing Parades out for the rest of the season probably factored into it even though its obviously a longer term commitment.
-
Ive gotta take a break from social media and nsbb for a couple hours. especially on social media its just people getting more and more frustrated that Jed hasnt made a move yet.
-
But other than that he's basically Pudge Rodriguez
-
Offense had a good day: Oh no the defense is trash!!
