  1. not sure if anyone posted this but cubs traded for ryan brasier
  2. I’d prefer not to trade anyone. The Cubs have a fairly uninspiring bench. In 2016 we had ten guys for eight spots heading into the season and then our LF blew out his knee the second game of the season. Unless there’s a deal for a pitcher that’s just too good to pass on, I’d rather see them let things play out.
  3. no way I’m surprised no one’s talking about this possibility
  4. Yeah if the Padres aren’t budging on Shaw, I’m fine if they want to sign Robertson, round out the bench and call it an offseason unless something falls into their laps. Shaw is too critical to this roster after the Tucker trade.
  5. Presumably because Assad has options and they have area a guaranteed deal. Not saying I agree with it.
  6. https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/did-greg-maddux-ever-throw-hard/ I’m not really posting this to come down on either side of the Maddux argument, just an interesting article that provides some context. So if his typical range 1984 translates to 89-91 (topping out at 95) on a modern gun, and the average fastball in 2008 was 91.4, by 80s/90s standards his velocity was probably average to slightly above average assuming velocities have been steadily increasing over time in a similar manner as they did from 2008-2024.
  7. DC - Dennis Allen OC - Declan Doyle STC - Richard Hightower
  8. Haha fair. But this GM-coach-QB combo has been there one season and didn’t try to sell their fans on some “this is going to take multiple years” BS we’ve become accustomed to in Chicago.
  9. Meh. They’re doing a great job dispelling of the idea that a rebuild must take multiple years in the NFL.
  10. Yeah before Ben Johnson chose the Bears, nearly every mock I saw had Dallas taking him at 12. He also played high school football in Frisco, which feels like something that might matter to Jerry and Cowboys fans.
  11. I may be misinterpreting your point, but isn’t “just bodies” the approach they took with the OL last year? I’m hoping for more than just one surefire starter out of FA.
  12. wow can’t believe he chose the dodgers over a similar offer from the cubs that’s shocking
  13. I don’t know what the numbers include but the takeaway here is that the Ricketts are lying to our faces. Like CubinNY mentioned, the Ricketts have all kinds of revenue streams that likely aren’t included here either.
  14. Get horsefeathered, Tom.
  15. or as i like to call them arlington heights dummies
  16. Brett at BN mentions the Mariners too.
  17. Hopefully this table is viewable…I have them at 19 names that they’ve requested to interview or been connected with. Which, of course, is ridiculous. edit: no go on the table, so here it is as an image. Vrabel and McCarthy getting cut off at the bottom.
  18. I didn’t like the quality of their 3 pt looks today. Ball movement was not good. Their most successful stretch was when they were driving and creating contact.
  19. Piss poor showing from the Illini today. Assuming no late comeback, this is an atrocious loss.
  20. I’m missing it. What do you mean by this?
  21. I don’t think they were missing anyone. Karaban got hurt late in the third of the three consecutive losses but otherwise scanning through box scores they seemed to be at full strength.
  22. Illinois has forced them into a lot of deep twos but they’ve been leaving everything short.
  23. This Illinois team is every bit as good as last year’s. Last year was top heavy with Shannon and Domask carrying the load on offense. This year there’s seven different guys taking turns from game to game. Tonight it’s Morez Johnson and Humrichous’ turn.
