  1. Congratulations on taking your walk after you swung at 4 pitches at least a foot off the plate, Nico
  2. Really glad we werent on the wrong end of that one. Id be pissed for sure.
  3. They already have that in Busch. He's been a top 10 hitter over the last 2 months. But who do you have in mind?
  4. Yeah Pete is going to post a 10 war season and the baseball community is going to lose its mind. Hes just getting better and better. I didnt know they were even playing, missed the whole thing. What the hell.
  5. That side-by- side with Votto was pretty spot-on. That was a surprising comp.
  6. Murphy talked about how he feels like they take sign stealing/reading grips/maneuerisms from 2B to the highest level
  7. Pete is on some kind of run right now holy horsefeathers Damn I thought it nicked the pole
  8. Gee, if we lose 200 games over the next 4 years, we will be a freaking dynasty. Sign me up! Just dont do something really stupid like trade PCA.
  9. Cubs had the highest meatball swing% in MLB in 2024, the 5th highest in 2025, and have the 3rd lowest this year. That could be an easy place to find some runs you idiots (Cubs). Over the last 30 days the league has taken the 4S (3rd fewest) and cutter (fewest) away from the Cubs. They've faced the 2nd most sinkers, 2nd most sliders, and 4th most curves. It's been an exceedingly triumphant campaign waged against Cubs hitters not named PCA or Busch
  10. Braves just put Strider on there for the same thing and theyre saying 4 weeks is the hopeful timeline
  11. If it weren't for Cabrera and Palencia you know we wouldn't have no velo at all
  12. You mentioned in an earlier post that they were good against them in April but once the league started feeding more of them they saw a sharp decline. They're certainly trending towards below league average/bad lately. Let's see where they end in a few months but I certainly don't see them do much damage to them lately.
  13. Nico's approach drives me insane. Sometimes it feels like the zone he's looking in is the zone in which he is likely to do the least amount of damage. I would trade his 90% contact rate for a 20% chase rate all day every day.
  14. Since the Dodgers series Pete has a 3.3 fwar (44 games!) Kurtz is 2nd with 2.6. He finished that series at a 76 wRC+, 65th in war. In the time since he's hit 172, good for 7th. He's absolutely unbelievable.
  15. Unsung hero of the game was Palencia. He was absolutely keyed in.
  16. Thank you. Everything hes hitting lately has been right on the screws. Im really starting to believe hes gonna post 10. And the overrated chatter in comments sections just kills me. Like since the LA series hes gone completely scorched-earth on the league.
