  1. I was just coming to make a similar post but was asking whether the Rangers would throw a fit it we just declined his option and signed him 1 year/$14m to avoid the extra $6m, but I think if you structured it the way you suggested it would make the Cubs look less bad and would benefit both the Cubs and Hamels. You might need to make the buyout 3-4m though just to throw Hamels a bone vs. exploring the market and potentially getting more dollars and/or years from another team.
  2. you know he's finishing with 32 HR and 109 RBI again.
  3. Phillies would be a little scary with Nola and a motivated Jake pitching 3 of the 5 games (assuming 1 is used in the WC game, 4 of 5 if its a 2 v 3 matchup). That said I'd least worry about our pitching staff against their offense. Colorado is a winnable matchup, I just hate the idea of 2 games at Coors Milwaukee is my pick but we could beat any team in the NL so whatever bring it on.
  4. I think he threw 6 straight balls to start the inning but recovered to get Reyes on a short chopper and Plawecki’s single was very soft. If Bruce didn’t historically hit lefties terribly I don’t think he would have been pulled
  5. I never notice any other catcher so obviously trying to frame pitches, but Willson looks obvious every single time (and never gets the call).
  6. deGrom tomorrow, Mills on Wednesday, lefty against the Braves Thursday. Yep let’s not lose this one
  7. This is turning into a disaster. Should have just let strop keep going
  8. Reminder that there are a handful of days left to somehow find a lefty reliever
  9. Since they brought up the White Sox, it just dawned on me that there is a non-zero chance that the Cubs can clinch the division on the Southside since they play the third to last series of the season there.
  10. Ugh hate Heyward vs lefty here. Hope he can move Zo over at the very least
  11. Ahh thought that was going out but I’ll take it!
  12. How dare you do poorly in the presence of Bob Odenkirk
  13. 1-3 tonight at situations with a runner on 3rd and less than 2 outs
  14. Well it was nice for Lester to be back for 2 starts
  15. So horsefeathering dumb to score 1 run on 2 doubles and 2 singles
  16. Is that 2 TOOTBLANs in 3 games for Javy? Come on man. Can’t give away outs when you have a scoring chance against this guy
  17. Hardcore nudity. Hoping there’s more dongs shown during the baseball portion of the programming
  18. What kind of shows do these channels air when they aren’t showing games/pregame/postgame etc?
  19. Schwarbers dong brought the Cubs to under -100 RD in the second half
