  2. Eloy = the only prospect I'd be bummed to lose in a trade, especially if it's for a pitcher Happ = ehh, switch hitter, so cool I guess. Most Cubs fans I know love him though, so what do I know. Jeimer = love him, but wouldn't hate to see him moved w/ his stock likely as high as it'll ever be Paredes = love A bunch of pitchers that I just can't get myself to care about much.
  3. Probably when Theo offers the Rays Addison/Soler/Jeimer/couple other minor leaguers
  4. i want him to pitch so well next year that there's no chance in hell he signs a team-friendly extension. Same here. Let someone else pay for his decline. I've been against trying to extend him since reports came out in ST that he had zero interest in any kind of team-friendly deal (which is entirely his right, to be clear), and his control/command issues, accompanied by him shelving his most devastating pitch, this past season hasn't given me any reason to change my mind.
  5. Yep, non-white, non-Christians have nothing to worry about; just a bunch of people spazzing out over nothing. [tweet] [/tweet]
  6. FFS. A couple people in my office discussing this are seriously agreeing that Keith Law is the anti-semite for equating "Hollywood" with "Jews," using the old "the ones who scream loudest about such things are the actual racists." People think like this, and I knew it, but it remains jarring to hear it in normal, matter-of-fact conversation.

  8. I'm pretty sure someone else here (whether this thread or another) has expressed this, but given the competitive window the Cubs are in + positional "need" + what FA are available, I continue to hope the F.O. does what they can to land impact bullpen arms. I'm totally down w/ paying the $$ and draft pick for Jansen, with Chapman as my option #2 if the timing allows such a strategy. I'd rather pay the $$ than find ourselves needing to trade Happ+ or Jimenez for an elite bullpen arm in-season. Trading Jimenez especially is something I'd really like to avoid (legit RH power is not something I want trade away, especially for an icky pitcher).
  9. I want nothing to do w/ Almora being a regular starter next season. 4th OF'er? Fine. Zobrist for leadoff barring an acquisition.
  10. I knew we'd be here. I knew we'd be in the clinching game of the World Series when these playoffs started. I KNEW IT dammit!!! Yet it still feels unreal, here in this moment. BRING IT HOME Cubs.
  11. Yep, just like the clergy.
  12. Joe West will be calling balls & strikes tonight. Yuck. I just hope he is equally shitty at equally inopportune times for both teams. Just dong Tomlin into oblivion so West is a non-factor.
  13. Everyone already knows you're a virtuous [expletive], mojo. How is this possibly stumping you, clod? I must've written in code unbeknownst to me.
  14. ^^^Unfortunately, many people w/ whom I've argued about Chief Wahoo would be perfectly fine w/ those other 2 options for team mascots, if you catch my drift.
  15. The Cubs are horsefeathering going to win tonight. They might as well go on a 3 game winning streak. Oh, and the Chief Wahoo logo is racist as horsefeathers. The Cleveland franchise should consider showing some class & quit displaying it so prominently.
  16. If the Cubs don't win the WS, we get to rescind the Chapman trade & get Gleyber back, right? Isn't that how these deals work?
  17. This is seriously the first time all post season I've been nervous. Even before the 9th inning in game 4 of the DS, with Cueto on-deck for game 5, I wasn't as nervous as tonight. Hoping like crazy Kluber isn't sharp tonight.
  18. Please save us butters!! Oh, and Kluber on short rest, that might be good for us too.

  20. Yup, Schwarber is a mudder. Horses for courses & all that.
