He sounds like this board when the Cubs started Tallion or Wicks.

General Non-Bears NFL Thread - 2026/27 Season Edition
NorthsideAvenger replied to Outshined_One's topic in Other Sports
I don't have a computer right now (I'm using a phone currently)so I can't post his quotes, but they come off as too non-chalant for this situation and for supposedly how close Reid is to Beienemy. -
I love the idea of Adell but if you can't get Adell what about Tyrone Taylor of the Mets? Taylor also kills lefties.
-
It was time.

General Non-Bears NFL Thread - 2026/27 Season Edition

Andy Reid's comments were asinine. -
PCA is pretty much the only untouchable in the whole organization right now. For Ramirez, I like the kid and I do think he'll be a very good major leaguer for over a decade but for the right controllable arm, I would trade him.
-
We are a few days away from August, the official start of the playoff run, the Cubs can not allow Tallion to continue taking up a spot on the roster. Jameson needs to be DFA soon.
-
I would take Wacha as a replacement for Tallion.
-
The problem is, those kind of pitchers are going to be so expensive that Jed will never enter the bidding.
-
Kane is back? Cool.
-
Greg Jones?
-
Spoiler alert, this was the game the Cubs blew an 8-0 lead to the Padres in San Diego in 2024. https://northsidebaseball.com/forums/topic/52810-4824-cubs-assad-padre-darvish-840-wft-marq/

Cubs pitchers gave up no homeruns today? Can we make this a daily occurance.
-
Cubs caught the Phillies at the right time.
-
I mentioned the obvious since there seems to be a group of NHL fans who are impressed with Bedard's contract. I think there is a chance that waiting to lock up Carlsson led to the offer sheet and because they had to match the offer sheet, it could potentially cost them Gauthier.
-
Despite the bloated ERA with the Yankees, Williams looked pretty dang good for the NYY. Get Devin away from the Mets could be a blessing for him. I would take a gamble on Williams.
-
I take Bedard's extension over Carlsson any day.

Cubs Trade For Beleagured Starter Aaron Civale
NorthsideAvenger replied to Brock Beauchamp's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
He's breathing and has an arm. Just the way Jed likes it. -
I prefer NOT to trade Pedro but he is also not untouchable either. I would trade Pedro for a controllable starter but not a rental.
-
Hendriks/Bummer/Wright/Woodford. are no longer with the Cubs organization. No surprises here.
-
As you said yesterday and it still applies today, Swain can not spend one second in Chicago his rookie season. I do not care he is a "BG guy", Swain is simply not an NBA player right now. Sellers/Atwell and Tome I can squint and see at least rotational players in the next couple of seasons. I really would like to see Wilson play with better talent than he did in the SL.
-
So, PCA is cosplaying as James Marsters?
-
Buffalo also wants Hellebuyck. I doubt they have room for Hellebuyck and Kane..
-
Brewers gave up Prince Fielder's son as part of the deal. I don't think much will come from this deal for the Brewers. To me this deal is not unlike what the Cubs have done in the first half, collecting arms and seeing if anything sticks.
-
Would he not want input from both organizations before making a decision?
