  1. Sure miss Rizzo at 1B 🙄 Got spoiled at the way he would scoop those balls out
  2. Why? Is the one they've been going with better ? Basically just dropping Morel, and moving Amaya up. Plugging PCA into the 2 hole between 2 of their best hitters so far can actually help him get better pitches and utilize his bunting ability and speed.
  3. Not sure of Bellinger and Suzuki timetable to return but, I think with this being April/May and they're winning games, this is likely a make or break for Mervis and the Cubs.
  4. Cubs need to shake up this batting order some... I would move PCA to the 2 hole and drop Tauchman to 3, mainly because PCA can at the very least sacrifice Hoerner over or bunt his way on, and Tauchman can get more AB with a runner in scoring position. I'd also move Amaya up to 5 to hit between Happ and Busch. Morel 9th, take some pressure off of him to be an RBI guy, looks like he pressing to make up for Bellinger and Suzuki being out of middle of lineup. Hoerner, PCA, Tauchman, Happ, Amaya, Busch, Swanson, DH, Morel
  5. I agree.. I just hope Steele, Imanaga, and Taillon keep dealing all year and I wonder if Hoyer will be actively looking to add a veteran SP via trade in July
  6. Good news is Steele looks to be back next week, and if you still have faith left in Hendricks, he's scheduled to start in Tennessee
  7. Good to have a low K rate, But if the contact is mostly ground ball outs and soft flyballs, does it matter ?
  8. Off topic: Steele pitching game 1 for Iowa today, game is at 12 on Marquee if interested.
  9. I'm very surprise he hasn't been given another opportunity, at first i thought maybe there was something between him and Ross, I mean he can't be any worse then Madrigal and he was a decent glove at 1B and 3B. I'd love to see him back
  10. Boog disagrees, he said last night he was one of the best 😅😅😅😅
  11. Just saw Votto can opt out of his minor league deal tomorrow and become a FA.. 🤔🤔🤔😅😅😅
  12. Could just be pressing and overthinking at this level
  13. Can they have another comeback 8th/9th inning tonight
  14. Right, if Bellinger and Suzuki were there then you could get away with it.
  15. Have to get lucky like last night, get a couple guys on and someone gets ahold of one..
  16. He could use a couple games off, unfortunately though the team can't afford to sit regular now with a couple guys already out.
  17. Cold bats, bad defense not a good combination to win games
  18. I got a kick out of Boog saying, one thing about Madrigal he will make contact up there, yea but it mostly hitting balls on the ground at someone 🙄
  19. He's only 20, hitting .318 with .847 OPS at Myrtle Beach (A)
  20. I would love to see Luis Vasquez get a shot but I know Swanson not going anywhere for a couple years.. I think Cristian Hernandez would be the next possible replacement in a couple years if they can or need to move Swanson
  21. Price shouldn't be to high given he'd be a "rental "... But yea, guess that would be a big factor
  22. If the Mets make Alonso available, should the cubs bite and try to extend or stick with Busch at 1B
  23. Should of been out of the inning after 3 batters and 14 pitches
