  1. Morgan got extremely lucky last year . Jed traded for him because he cost just over a million dollars .
  2. I should have probably said high leverage situations . Even if you don’t use him in the 9th , he isn’t going to help them pitching like this . They need Merryweather to step up .
  3. IDK about putting Pressly in the 9th , until he shows improvements .
  4. What a job by Shota . Didn’t have his best stuff and had to adjust because the umpire wasn’t giving him anything up in the zone .
  5. Bellinger is going to have a really good year if he stays healthy . That swing looks really quick . The injury probably limited him last season. I think Bellinger is going to be the steal of the year for the Yankees ( Great move for them )
  6. Pressly continues to look like complete dog horsefeathers out there . This keeps up Hodge will be closing soon .
  7. Nice work by Dansby . Not the greatest throw by Busch
  8. PCA got the Cubs 3 runs there . Amaya hit that ball hard
  9. Steele just doesn’t have it . Everything is right down the middle and up , just like in Japan
  10. I think it’s a case of both . I think this weekend not been on marquee is about the Japan trip . However , they didn’t do any road broadcast this year . I remember in previous years , pretty much every game was on Marquee during ST .
  11. Didn’t understand why Tucker swung at a 3-0 pitch with no outs , nobody on and down by multiple runs in the 7th inning I think it was . PCA did the same thing on a 2-0 count in the 8th . Both were really bad pitches out of the strike zone , but whatever . 0-2 and now they have to get on a plane 13 hours , back to Arizona and play fake baseball for 5 days . The schedule in April is brutal as it has been pointed out already
  12. Well , I hope they enjoyed the city , because the rest didn’t go very well .
  13. Watching that game last night and have to say Amaya throws are a bit concerning .
  14. So if Keller makes the team , who is out , Miller ? Presly Brasier Morgan Hodge Pearson Merryweather Thielbar Keller Rea is the 5th starter with Wicks / Brown in AAA .
  15. Canario DFA , to clear a spot for Turner
  16. And people get upset when some suggest the Cubs make offers only to make fans think they are trying . Any winning bid for Bregman was going to include and opt out after the 1st and most likely needed a 30.0 AAV . Cubs just made sure to come just low enough on AAV with no opt out 🤣. As Jeff Passan said yesterday , they didn’t offer the most dollars , they didn’t offer most years , they didnt offer highest AAV . I would add to that , they offered the least flexibility , so how were they expecting to win the bid ? Answer is simple . They weren’t expecting to win and they didn’t want to win . Same thing with Scott . Didn’t come up to 4 years until the last moment when there was talk the Cubs were his 1st choice and he waited for them 2 weeks to match the offer . They came in lower than the Dodgers on AAV🤣.
  17. Canario could get some work at 1B this spring . If they somehow keep him , might as well give it a try .
