  1. I didn’t know that the doctor who did the surgery on Ohtani is part of the Dodgers medical staff . No bueno
  2. Maybe but it’s very possible the Jays aren’t feeling great about Ohtani . Ohtani seems to be entering the final stage of his FA and teams have started to pursue other options now . I still think we could hear a decision tonight or tomorrow .
  3. Someone asked Rogers what the level of optimism should be for Ohtani ? Rogers reply was not high , but not zero . It doesn’t feel like they are the favorites . Seems like the Cubs getting picked would be a surprise at this point .
  4. Read someone is saying on Twitter that Buster Olney is claiming Ohtani has decided . Olney thinks it’s the Dodgers .
  5. Yeah , tired of waiting for Ohtani . Just pick a team already , so the Cubs offseason can begin .
  6. Maybe Morel goes back to Toronto to play 2B . Morel +PCA and keep adding . Trading Steele doesn’t make much sense for the Cubs IMO. . They are looking to add a TOR arm to go with him .
  7. Lance Lynn signs with Cardinals Reynaldo Lopez to Braves
  8. There are AD in Boston and New York as well . It’s nothing
  9. Interesting . Shohei currently in Chicago or coming to visit soon ?
  10. Pending a physical , Nola will be back with Phillies . 7 years
  11. Looks like Nola talks with Phillies are getting hot . Cardinals looking like the favorites for Sonny Gray
  12. Levine says according to his sources it’s all Cubs - Dodgers for Ohtani . With all the talk about no leaks this makes me a bit nervous but whatever .
  13. Looks like Mariners are out on Ohtani .
  14. David Kaplan follows that Devine guy . I am not saying he is legit , but if someone like Kaplan follows him , who knows ? Anyway with Ohtani wanting to keep things secret , it’s going to be really boring until he signs .
  15. Surprised they protected 3 guys and the 40 man is full now . Maybe they plan to non tender some guys , but I doubt it , or they don’t plan to make a move for a while . I think it’s too early for a big trade , but you never know .
  16. If the Mariners put Woo on the offer , I think the Cubs will have a difficult time matching that . I think Woo has a higher ceiling than any of the Cubs pitchers with the exception of Horton . Just my opinion . Brown has a high ceiling but I take Woo over him . Woo already in the big leagues .
  17. Watched a video of the Morosi report and after saying that geography maybe won’t be as important this time , he says a team like the Cubs .
  18. Looks like Ohtani is expected to sign before the start of the winter meetings . That’s a bit surprising . Thought he would sign at the winter meetings . Cubs will have plenty of time to pivot
  19. According to Mooney and Sharma , the Cubs view Hoskins as a good fit for the roster . Not really surprising . I think the chances of this one happening are really high .
  20. Who said they will offer a short term average deal ? They could offer 10 / 400 and still be outbid by a wide margin . I have seen he could get 450 even 500 . I just don’t see the Cubs doing those kind of numbers if it gets to that point .
  21. I think it was reported when Ohtani came to the states than the Cubs really impressed him with their presentation , but the problem the Cubs had was that there was no DH in the national league . It’s possible Ohtani likes the Cubs , but at the end i dont think they will come close enough with the money . As Sharma wrote they will likely get outbid by a wide margin
  22. George Ofman is saying the Cubs are looking into Kyle Gibson ( why ? ) and bringing back Candelario
  23. Don’t think they will get Ohtani or Yakamoto . My guess is they will sign the lefty Japanese ( Imanaga ) ? A couple of relievers at 5 AAV , Hoskins on a 1 year deal to play 1B and trade for Soto
  24. Cubs are one of the teams in on Yamamoto per Heyman .
  25. Rogers also said that he thinks the chances of Ohtani signing with the Cubs are higher than Bellinger coming back . Also mentioned that maybe they could sign Matt Chapman because they need a 3B .
