Right, i dont expect either to really upgrade much if at all at the deadline, while the Cubs should be upgrading. Cubs need to just take care of them head to head and everything else will fall in place in the second half.

I doubt TR approval came with the thoughts of resigning him long term, it came because Tucker was a stud player with an affordable price tag for the upcoming season. I dont feel like TR gets involved with the transactional part of the game as far as who Hoyer signs or trades he makes, I feel like he just sets the budget for the year and Hoyer does what he can to stay under it. Now at the deadline, IF Hoyer wants to add a player (s) that his remaining cost will put them over that budget, he'll need to seek approval to do so. So, I think maybe it not TR but maybe Hoyer who may not of made that trade without feeling like he could convince Tucker to stay and TR to approve the cost to keep him. We'll see, like you said they do have a decent shot as long as they keep winning and he enjoys being in Chicago and his teammates, anything can happen. Question will be, will it be Hoyer or someone else making that offer for the Cubs
-
Needed a baserunner for Tucker to have another shot at a cycle
-
Correct me if im wrong but wasn't Cam Smith going to be starting the season in AA with the Cubs had it not been for the trade ? I have some doubt that Hoyer had him scheduled for a fast track to majors for this season in December after only 20 PA in AA.

More like F Just two guys sitting in a bar watching and talking about the game 😅
-
Zuki bomb
-
Yea, I dont see the hate, I see more of wishing they kept him over Shaw in here.
-
Ok, Rea can go another inning 😏😏
-
Zuki triple...
-
Tucker... that what they needed Nice response inning after giving up the lead
-
Happ, now a 3 run bomb by Tucker will do it
-
Let get some more before they pull him
-
Hoerner been eating his wheaties lately, that 3 this week 😅 Got the lead back
-
Busch gets 1 back
-
Yea I'd be really surprised if Hoyer chose to keep Shaw over Smith if he had the choice of which one to keep and send. I hope this is Rea last inning, theres no way I allow him to go 3 times through the order.
-
Thought he was out, looked like he caught ball with glove on his ass.
-
Great start by Rea 🙄🙄🙄
-
I didn't say they would
-
Hate when they cant get that big hit to knock in extra runs.
-
Isn't he part of reason why theyre having a good season team wise and in first place
-
Come on Hoerner
-
Come on Busch
-
Why would he be available?
-
Shaw wasn't part of the trade, it was about who had won the trade. It Jed job if hes still with them this offseason to convince TR to open the checkbook for Tucker.
-
We might only need 162 games if Tucker don't resign and they dont win the WS, if Cam becomes just an everyday average player for them it'll be a win for Houston.
