When asked, Counsell mentioned that for Amaya to get considered being on the postseason roster he will have to get ABs, so that the only reason why I think he'll be added. Like I said i know the bench is somewhat meaningless in the playoffs now, thats why I was wondering and asking if maybe they'll add Hamilton to that roster just for his speed since baserunning will be mostly what the bench could be used for late in games. Catcher, a power bat, and 2 guys who can run which could be Castro and Hamilton 🤷♂️

W.. Magic number is 1 over SF Cin AZ Reds are losing, AZ and SF just starting Magic number is 8 over Padres Padres are losing Im good with them needing to get a W tomorrow to clinch, makes it a fun watch this way. Doing it in Pittsburgh will bring memory of Harry's call in 1984 "Cubs are champions Cubs are champions " lol
-
Maybe with McGuire, might depends on how Amaya looks the final week, i know hes playing tonight.
-
OK, he walked 8 times
-
Thinking about playoffs roster with the bench and who'll be the 4 players on it. I know the bench isnt as important now cause of DH so I was wondering if they got Billy Hamilton to be a runner for the playoffs and will Counsell allow Busch to play against Lefties or will he be starting Turner or Santana Im just figuring Amaya for sure, after that I dont know. A RH bat for first and 2 runners in Castro(IF)and Hamilton(OF)?
-
I don't think theyre looking at tie breaker scenario, just that the magic number will be 1
-
Doing what? Hes 7 for 42 in September including tonight
-
I dont care if a RHer is starting tomorrow for the Pirates, I want to see Alcantara in RF over Castro.
-
Good to see cubs hitters doing the little things to score runs

Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 9-16-25

Did they just promote Ed Howard to Iowa ? If so this is hilarious 😂 -
Yep, looking forward to having him be the DH next season, kid is showing he belongs
-
Busch Bomb to get it started and great piece of hitting by PCA going the other way gets another run home.. Great way to start against Skenes
-
W.. Magic number to clinch over Giants is 3 Magic number to clinch over Padres is 9 Remain 5 back of Brewers with 12 to play Just keep winning
-
First game back after injury, probably has a pitch limit.
-
We'll see, they both have 2 starts left. I think if all remains the same between the two in their final starts, Taillon could get the nod over Boyd to start game 3 in the first round best of 3. Sometimes you just go with the hot arm over the one that been struggling a bit lately. I do hope Boyd ends the season on a high note though
-
Get him some work and saving the bullpen.. Soroka, Assad, Civale, and maybe Rea may be guys that will come in and just eat up those 2-3 innings if needed to get to the late guys or in extras in the playoffs.
-
Might only be 4 starts since his return but hes only had 4 bad starts all season out of his 21 where he gave up more than 3 runs. Boyd has given up 4 or more in 5 of his last 9 starts.
-
Has Taillon moved ahead of Boyd in the playoffs rotation? Wasn't long ago, Boyd was looking like the no.1 guy for that rotation
-
PCA and Suzuki were headed to 40 plus at one point and then they both died heading into July 🤦♂️
-
No, he is very creepy with her and creepy overall. I was never a Boog fan even before he came to the Cubs, he just irritates me.
-
PCA !!! He really needed that one, i really didn't want to see him pressing the final week trying to get 2 for 30. Hopefully he'll relax a bit and hits starts coming for him along with number 30 now.
-
Love it, let get another one home now
-
Busch demolished one.. Too bad Shaw got caught stealing up one.. Nico going for that batting title, I think hes just 5 points behind Turner now
-
Counsell wont start a RH rookie(Alcantara)against a RHer 🤷♂️
-
Castro just swung and put his bat back into the bat rack at the same time 😅😅
