  1. That was not a good swing, JD, but he almost got lucky with a hit. However 2 outs made in 3 pitches is not good.
  2. He's gotta be a 10th man they will try to develop over the offseason. He cant horsefeathers hit for horsefeathers.
  3. Jeez did Dansby slip out of the box, that looked like an easy dribbles hit.
  4. 2 HR off a guy who only allowed 5 in 80+ IP
  5. I freaking hate Nico's approach. If you're going to swing at every pitch, at least have a chance for slug. PCA's approach is horrendous but at least he catches a ton of barrels.
  6. I mentioned it in another thread but he has thrown 22 waste pitches to lead off the 9th this season. He's going down. My thing is, there has to be many teammates and coaches that are aware of what has been going on.
  7. Dusty was like how the horsefeathers did that swing hit a ball 330 feet?
  8. If that's the case I retract my comment and apologize but this is the starting rotation options available to the Cubs thread and you have specifically called out Jed just recently so its pretty easy to see how someone could get confused about it.
  9. We dont need a daily countdown to call Jed out for doing exactly what every other POBO or GM is doing. Stop being melodramatic.
  10. Man this Clase case is insane. There are 22 instances in which he led off the 9th with a waste pitch this season. They nabbed Ortiz for two. The catchers and coaches have to be in on it also to see this and not question what is going on.
  11. Porter Hodge should get another look with the big club, right? 2.4 ERA, he deserves a shot. Oh, never mind, that's a 24.4 ERA! LOL
  12. The numbers throughout the offense over the last 2 weeks are horsefeathers atrocious up and down. Busch, Tucker (don't care about the walks dude, you need to horsefeathers slug) Seiya, Happ, Swanson- have all been horrible. Pathetically slow to adjust. And it coincides with Busch going to leadoff. Counsell really horsefeathered that up. Yall still think our offense is so much better than theirs? You're letting the first couple months delude you.
  13. Cabrera, Bieber/Morton, and a power (30% K) RP would be phenomenal. Ill also be very happy if we can pry Eovaldi instead.
  14. All these trades going down, I cant believe Jed is just sitting on his hands again
  15. Our system kind of went from a B+ to a C- this season, even as Wiggins, Rojas, and Gallagher popped up and all but Alcantara has had a really good season. The warts are just too clear.
  16. Really interesting for me to read that Frey is the guy largely responsible for unlocking Ryno by imploring him to start pulling the ball. I guess I just thought the Cubs never had a progressive mind among them in those days. He was definitely my favorite Cub growing up, although I imitated Dawson's stance. I was too young for 84 but we do have pics of us attending a game in L.A. that year when we took a family vacation. Anyway, Ryno had the coolest nickname in the game. I always loved it, loved saying it with a little growl. I remember when he blasted a HR in Wrigley's first night game and then the game got rained out. My dad explained that the HR wouldn't count and I threw a fit. It was really weird when he abruptly retired, and it stung even more because Jordan had just done the same a little while earlier. That was a painful time for Chicago sports fans. RIP Ryno, one of my childhood heroes.
  17. I don't think Jed has much internal angst to get things done. The team is still in great shape to make the playoffs.
  18. Nico blew it. If he takes that walk then they pull Miz and would have to blow even more relievers. Boyd absolutely sucked tonight too.
  19. The Brewers moves for Priester and Vaughn have come up aces so brace yourselves
  20. The whole horsefeathers league is waiting dude. You act like he can just strong arm a trade. The sellers are waiting til the last minute as well.
  21. This is where Tucker needs to come through. At least smack a single and get a run in.
