  1. Anyone else have ads annoyingly pop up while you're trying to type.. 🙄🙄🙄
  2. Just need him to connect one time, preferably with runners on base... Not sure if his glove would be considered an upgrade or downgrade defensively to Busch though..lol
  3. April has been rough on them lately, especially in the first 10-15 games to start the season, hopefully this start is a good sign for things to come like the last time they had a great April 😉
  4. We're only talking Hendricks, they could just as easily keep him on the IL til if that situation comes up. They have now between active, Iowa, and on IL.. Steele, Imanaga, Taillon, Assad, Wicks Smyly, Brown, Wesneski, and now Horton Can even add Straily if it really becomes disastrous... I think theyre covered for a just in case disaster til June/July if they decide to try and make a trade for an available veteran arm that can help them get to and in the postseason. I mean, Hendricks would really need to look sharp in rehab assignments and in a game or two at Iowa to be considered to get back in rotation and risk struggling to go 4-5 innings still, especially when there's young arms that can do that or better. Wicks and Assad should only get better with more starts/innings under their belt.
  5. Possible too that they move Wick or Assad to help the pen with Horton taking a rotation spot.. Brown can also go to the pen when Steele returns. Steele, Imanaga, Taillon, Horton, Wick/Assad I just dont think Hendricks will be back in the rotation
  6. W... Wow, what big win to pull out here.. Keep finding ways guys
  7. Noooooo Not Makes me NerVis Neris😳😳😳
  8. Funny, you'd think Morel and Tauchman reaction would be more excited after that one.. 😅
  9. There my crooked number.. Morel looked so overmatched and then boom Fuk yea
  10. The best on base guy in cubs history 😅😅
  11. Would Mervis be better used at 1B now and Busch DH ?
  12. I guess, as long as he hits it soft enough to avoid DP 🤷‍♂️
  13. I'm trying to figure out what Counsell sees in Madrigal to use him as a PH in key situations, is the hope is that he hits the ball soft enough to leg it out
  14. No no hitter, no shutout, now win this damn game...
  15. They aren't going to really get no hit and shutout and lose 1-0 from a leadoff homer are they... 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️
  16. Need a couple vets to step up in absence of Bellinger and Suzuki.. Nico cooled off in Boston, Happ hasn't done much since his 3 hit game in Arizona, Swanson hasn't done much since the first home stand, Gomes and Morel are MIA... They've been hanging in there winning series with some good pitching, but eventually the bats gonna need to help out the pitching.
  17. Basically what we're going to see every game until Suzuki and Bellinger returns...
  18. With the uncertainty of the bats now, and seeing who the Mets have on the mound this series, a split would be huge this series. The only game the Cubs would have a big advantage would be #4 on Thursday, so getting one or two🤞 of first three is what you're hoping for.
