    Only one way to find out.. I agree with you but you dont know til they actually get an opportunity, I get what Turner brings off the field, and think they should just give him an injury and IL him if he prefers to stay over being released. But, I'd take my chances with a couple of guys from Iowa over Berti and Brujan any day.

    I personally feel they need better then just a MOR arm as a start, they need, if they can get, a guy who can slot between Imanaga and Boyd. They also can use another Starter if they wanna push Rea out of the rotation and I hope they do. I'd like to see them have a rotation in August of Imanaga, TOR type, Boyd, inning eater, Horton. They could use a backend reliever to help Palencia and keep him fresh, preferably LHed. Lastly, a 3Bmen that can slot in the middle of lineup between PCA and Busch would be ideal. Be nice if they can add a power bat for the bench and a super utility guy that can give outfielders and middle infielders a breather here and there but not counting on it, I think we'll probably just see a couple guys from Iowa come up to fill that need.

    Didn't we just go through this a couple weeks when they went from being up like 6 games to 2 in a matter of a week and then boom they got it back up to 5. But yea, did not expect to lose 2 game to the Brewers during these series , hopefully tomorrow they'll get 1 back and both the Dodgers and Cubs will take care of Buisness.

    Correct, it is amazing theyre where theyre at with having key injuries to the rotation, and having multiple bats going through struggles for long periods of time. Let just hold hitting that panic button for a couple more weeks and see how they respond to start the second half and what Hoyer does to upgrade where it's needed.

    Boy, not much fight those last 2 innings from the top of order on down. 4 games left til break, be cool if they can find a way to at least split them, then take a deep breath and start the second half. No panic but it would be nice if during the break Hoyer can give these guys a positive shot in arm with a solid acquisition to give them a little boost.

    That the frustrating thing about Happ is that he can look so good for a handful or so of games and make you think he's gonna be ok and then in a blink of an eye he just cant find holes for weeks. This season though, yea he hit 9 homers in June to give himself a respectable total of 12 but he hasn't done much hitting overall since May.
  7. chibears55
    He pinched hit for Berti with 2 outs, likely hoping he could get lucky and hit #201 and cut lead to 1 there.
  8. chibears55
    Should of played this last one the same way and held him to a single 🤷‍♂️🙃 lol
  9. chibears55
    I dont know if it laziness but yea he hasn't really played some balls well the last month.
  10. chibears55
    Hopefully Horton dont give back the runs
  11. chibears55
    Sign of a struggling offense that didn't take advantage for a big inning but did just enough to get 2 home.
  12. chibears55
    5th batter 😓 Overall after getting first two guys on and both scoring 🙃
  13. chibears55
    4th batter 😐
  14. chibears55
    3rd batter 😏
  15. chibears55
    2nd batter 😌
  16. chibears55
    1st batter 🫩
  17. chibears55
    Not even gonna say it... 🤐🤐🤐🤐
  18. chibears55
    Yea, going into this series and Brewers facing the Dodgers, you'd expect the Cubs to add 2 games on their lead not lose 2 games. Make it worse Brewers get Washington at home this weekend while the Cubs go to Yanlee Stadium so yea theres a good chance they go into the break in 2nd place if they dont take care of Buisness tonight and tomorrow.
  19. chibears55
    Happ having bad luck, day 40 😵‍💫😵‍💫😏😏
  20. chibears55
    Lmao and it Berti who gets the first hit for them 😅
  21. chibears55
    They really really really need to have a crooked number inning here and get rolling again.
  22. chibears55
    Got hit on his hand pad and guess it really hurts now 🤷‍♂️
  23. chibears55
    Yes, Madlock after back to back batting titled wanted to new contract of around 200 K and Wrigley refused and traded him. As we see the tradition of not paying good players continues to this day 😅😅
  24. chibears55
    In his defense the defense let him down twice, both balls should of been fielded
  25. chibears55
    Damn.. Not having Shaw at 3B and Happ in LF cost the first run. Don't know why Tucker gave up on that flyball, definitely was catchable and nobody letting Dansby know to throw home. These bats better be on today
