    Joc Pederson ends up with a top 5 MVP vote. edit - that's not that bold. let's go with ends up top 5 in MVP voting. actually, make it top 3.

    The Cubs rotation will be cromulent/decent and the offense and defense will be very good. Trevor Williams is going to be very good. The Cubs will be in first place, playing at a 90+ win pace and be buyers at the trade deadline. Bullpen will be ok/fine (at least eventually). That's it. That's the post.

    Things can be two things. Alzolay's age, injury history, and performance mean that he's not a guy you want to pencil into the rotation for 5 years, but he has the stuff and is young enough to be a short to medium term hope if things work out, which ranks pretty highly on the list of short to medium term hopes given the legion of mediocrity you mention. So is the consensus that yes, there is still some wishing and hoping on this guy, but not a whole heck of a lot? I genuinely have no idea what he's been up to, I just know I've heard his name as a guy on the cusp of certain lists for years now and was surprised he was already 26. I don't know of many pitchers with such a thin resume by that age who wound up being something. Although I'm sure it's happened. there was some optimism bc he came up with a wipe out slider late last year and was striking dudes out like crazy, but very SSS and he has had a lackluster spring. https://www.marqueesportsnetwork.com/deep-dive-adbert-alzolays-new-slider/ https://www.nbcsports.com/chicago/cubs/cubs-adbert-alzolay-shows-nasty-slider-first-spring-training-start

    With the way some of these rumors were swirling, that's actually less than I thought they offered. I'm guessing it would be rookie contract guys as the two starters? So two of the group: Smith, Johnson, Nichols, Daniels, Mooney? (maybe Kmet) There are some guys out there saying they heard 2 3rds, FWIW.

    but why tho

    it's not the first time i've seen that talked about but it can't be bad

    darrin jackson? he seems pretty universally liked in town but i obviously haven't spent much time listening to white sox broadcasts. i'm sure he's better than dopey ass coomer. anyway, in that regard, if len could deal with brenly, he can probably deal with this.

    it's incarcerated bob, so who knows if riddick really said this
  13. David
    you guys should've realized it as soon as he started describing the uniforms and talking about the village of bedford park

    i'm just trying to figure out if you hate pat hughes and are joking/trolling in the way you're saying it, or if you actually don't know that that's pat hughes if you hate pat hughes, that's fine i guess, coming from a big vin scully hater
  15. David
    i can't tell if you're joking or not since you live in alabama lol

    it's cowherd so he probably has some sort of connection, even though it's not gonna be 5 first round picks for obvious reasons.

    i just do not care about anything regarding salvaging upcoming seasons without acquiring a franchise quarterback. the fallback fitzpatrick or bridgewater plans can wait til the last possible minute and are nearly entirely irrelevant to me. no qb, no care anymore.

    for those who don't know, this guy has had info before. he seems to be buddies with adam jahns to some extent. not sure what connections he has other than that, but i think the only time he was majorly wrong in the last few years was last summer when he was saying a robinson extension was coming.
  19. David
    Riddick is buddy buddy with our FO, right? i always got that impression. at least there seemed to be some sort of connection with nagy.

    what beat writer? where'd you see/hear it? is he reporting or speculating?
  22. David
    are we doing this sports book/betting line thing? let's do it. why not?
  23. David
    wait why'd you delete that wilson tweet, umfan?
  24. David
    If that's the case than I'm happy with it, I thought you meant he was going all old timey baseball on the broadcast which I can't stand. Nah, I'm just talking about his voice Either this is the most Derwood horsefeathers ever or you've become self aware and are making a good joke. Either way, I'm impressed and applaud you.
  25. David
    that might be because you got used to len sounding like kermit the frog for 16 years. i'm pretty sure we almost unanimously HATED that at first.
