  1. Also from Smith Anyone know which specific additions to the infrastructure he could be referring to?
  2. I think Theo might've gotten it right with Hottovy and Iapoce. At least with our offense I truly feel like he's helped quite a bit, in particular with oppo slugging. And our starters are more efficient and able to go 7 more often. I like what I'm seeing.
  3. I couldn't understand it at the time when I read his HS scouting reports and I'll never, ever, understand it, how our FO, thought they should use a 6 on this guy.
  4. Someone's whole reply is, "Molina is incredible"
  5. Bellinger has 2.8 fwar already. horsefeathering insane slash line 427/500/913
  6. Hatch bounced back and had a really nice start 6 IP 2 ER 5:0
  7. Steele got lit the horsefeathers up Velasquez stayed hot and pushed his OPS over 800
  8. Holy hell that is terrible
  9. We've had several days off and Davis really shouldn't play
  10. How many games does the 2016 team win with this version of Javy?
  11. Nah I like Eloy, I hope he rakes. Just Q should also rake Nothing against the guy but I am so sick of hearing the complaints about how we gave up a generational hitter for a bottom rotation pitcher.
  12. So Q is back to being at least a 2 and Eloy has an OPS sandwiched between Bryant and Schwarber with absolutely no defensive value added. This should keep up and I would be a very happy man.
  13. And he wants to be closer to his family in Chicago
  14. https://twitter.com/cubs_live/status/1120481748931022848?s=21 Man, is that depressing... Sealboy hitting for this much power makes no sense. Honestly not sure I agree. He has the bat speed and pitch recognition; all he needed was to raise his launch angle. It's easier said than done but with a guy with his hitting aptitude, it should be doable. Moving forward I would rather put the eggs in the basket of contact hitters and help them develop loft, rather than take 'power (it's a bit of a misnomer to me) hitters' with whiff issues and hope they can correct those. Look all around the league and 'slap hitters' are finding they have more power in store than previously suspected. With teams no longer pigeonholing every player based on prototype and tooling their swings to maximize loft. You will see more guys pop out of the woodwork showing more power than they were projected for, IMO.
  15. Here's the video. You really never see an ITPHR off of this type of contact. Definitely a poor play by the LF. Nico is almost to 3rd by the time it is fielded. https://t.co/SospJVaFcR
