    That was a remarkable play by Jordan to get DLC

    OMG and then a Belli bomb. That's a little irrtating.

    That's a little disappointing, though not surprising. I was hoping he would pitch 100 innings this year and be ready for around 130 next year. i had actually been contemplating this; wouldn't it be beneficial to hold him out until around June next year and then have him finish the year out and potentially help us in a playoff race, rather than capping innings before the end of the season?

    Not trading for and subsequently signing Mookie was an enormous failure of 28 teams. Dude is unreal. He is realistically about as good of a player that you are ever going to have a chance to acquire. He would have put the Cubs right back on top of the NL. It really grinds my gears that he is a Dodger for another decade.

    That's nuckin futs

    Acuna launched a slam off of Fat Lynn to become baseball's first 30-60 player. Nice to see the Braves vanquish Lynn's Dodger resurgence, even if only for one start.

    Ferris upended by walks again

    Well, the clamor has subsided quite a bit over the last ~10 games when his OPS dropped 200 points. In that same time, however, Tauchman has been pushing a 35 wRC+ and is nowhere near the CF PCA is. I want PCA to start and to eat on defense. The rest is gravy this year. Using him as a PR and defensive specialist would be stupid. He would be a major defensive improvement to an already very good defense. I understand him getting passed over, but it's pretty insane that it was Canario to leapfrog him. How often is he going to get to that power? He has struck out in 20 straight games and has just 1 walk in his last 11 games, with 15 Ks. I get trying to strike while the iron is hot and maybe you get a Morel type of explosion to close the season, which would obviously be incredible, but that's very unlikely. The Cubs added another boom-bust in the Wisdom and Morel mold and didn't really add a dynamic to their roster beyond power potential.

    What a crazy turn of events. If you bet on this a month ago you would have made a fortune.

    This is just not near the way NFL works in my mind and it's consistently a trap. Every single season is really it's own beast for most teams, unless they have an elite QB. Half of NFL games are coin flips that are often just determined by a couple fluky plays. They won 7 games last year and I wouldn't draw much from that regarding the 2023 outlook. Historically rookie QB's rarely hit the ground running. Overall, the roster is mediocre AF and it's asking a lot of a rookie to make much with it.

    The ol TWTW

    Turned that winning streak into a losing streak! horsefeathers yes. Cubs have now won 11 of their last 12 series. That's incredible.
  13. We Got The Whole 9
    Contreras just psyched Alzolay out completely. Didn't even challenge him.
  14. We Got The Whole 9
    Erased immediately!
  15. We Got The Whole 9
    Let's see how Adbert responds. Let's go baby!
  16. We Got The Whole 9
    What a horsefeathers awful job by Leiter. Just had nothing working to the arm side. Horrible position to put Adbert in.
  17. We Got The Whole 9
    Kyle is pitching a gem.
  18. We Got The Whole 9
    If Young struggles it will put a ton of pressure on that defense. Couple key injuries to the defense and they'll be awful.
  19. We Got The Whole 9
    Possibly over-rotating
  20. We Got The Whole 9
    I feel like Seiya had easy opportunities to poke a single but he was looking to hit a hard flyball.
  21. We Got The Whole 9
    Clevinger would really make our rotation more formidable for the playoffs but he's too much of a POS.
  22. We Got The Whole 9
    I like to think they told him that was his last objective to reach the majors and he really took it to heart. I bet he could save them some money and play the Madrigal role next year. Maybe we could get a reliever for Madrigal in the winter.
  23. We Got The Whole 9
    Vazquez hit his 7th HR at Iowa (18 total in year with just over 400 PA) with a 120 line and an outstanding BBK. He's had a damn good year and has improved his discipline significantly after his promotion.

    That was apparently 71.9 off the bat. That was a pitch that should have been hit in the air to RF. The pitch was a bit of a hanger and didn't catch the shadow of the zone. Nico just didn't get under it enough.
  25. We Got The Whole 9
    That was a must win game for me as far as the division goes and Steele was absolutely awesome. I was nervous they were gonna give it away but each pitcher locked it down. Great win.
