    Problem is, the Cubs need to start making moves now, they can't afford to wait until mid July or the deadline to make significant moves because by then it'll likely be too late to recover from the hole they're buried in if they continue to blow away games. Then there's the question of will Rickett go above the Threshold to add those significant players as they are currently just 4 mil below it. They also need to move players like Madrigal and Mastrobuoni off the 40 so they can add and bring up kids that can help now. So, yes they can turn things around but they need to get that process started sooner rather then later before it may be too late.

    Cubs have starting pitching, that it.. Problem is, these guys get pulled after 6 or in the 7th and can't win these games

    Cubs pitchers are pitching in stressful situations like it's bases loaded no outs in every inning because of how bad the offense has been. They pretty much need to be perfect with every pitch and have no wiggle room for mistakes even with a 2 run lead cause it could be all they get the rest of game.

    I think Hoyer has Gomes around because he reminds him of Ross with the grey beard... Grandpa Gomes 😅

    Right, why I think it'll be in the best interest of the Cubs for theirs and Marquee sake to make sure they have a winning team in August. Comcast not going to negotiate in good faith if the Cubs aren't playing well, cause they won't gain customers that will add Marquee to watch a losing team and will likely lose subscribers to Marquee in September and over the winter.

    Marquee and Comcast deal ends in September, so if a deal doesn't get worked out between Marquee and Comcast the largest cable provider in the Chicago market this could be the end of Marquee. With this in mind, one would think or hope that the pressure would be on Rickett and Hoyer to do whatever possible to make sure the team is more competitive and in the thick of things by August in order to give Comcast a legitimate reason to extend the contract with Marquee not just to finish out this season but going forward. So, hopefully maybe, there is a chance that we may see some legitimate upgrades to this roster in July and the Ws will come more often.

    This is how bad it been, and the only difference is the 2 games they beat them. The Chicago White Sox have a record of 8-22 in their last 30 games The Chicago Cubs have a record of 10-20 in their last 30 games Welcome to baseball in Chicago

    Wasn't Amaya touted as a good defensive catcher with a strong arm ?

    Cubs future 1Bmen 😅

    Happ looks like someone who prefers to be somewhere else other then playing. Just the way his facial expression is everytime they show him, he just looks so uninterested....
  24. chibears55
    Yea, problem with some of these guys, they have a couple good games and then go back under.
  25. chibears55
    Boat, knew he deserved another opportunity 😏
