  1. Do we expect the Reds and Brewers to just stop winning ??? There 55 games left after tonight, so that obviously means the cubs will have to play 7 games better then the Reds(if they lose) to pass them, that tougher to do when you have fewer head to head remaining.
  2. Gotta keep Madrigal and Wisdom bat in the lineup 🤷‍♂️😅
  3. No, but I think he should get or have gotten a good everyday opportunity to at least see if he can adjust. I can see Hoyer trading him today and then seeing him becoming an AS type player like Soler in a couple seasons.
  4. DeJong traded to BlueJays, so he'll get to beat up on the Cubs next weekend 😅
  5. Everyone has their own thought process and opinions 🤷‍♂️
  6. For me it all about momentum and head to head matchup against team your chasing.. Yes there plenty of games left on the schedule but in the final 2 months you gotta beat the team ahead of you because it basically losing 2 games in the standings to them if you lose, also losing tonight puts that much pressure on the next 2 games to win both just to not lose ground in the standings, and a split would just keep them as they were going in but 4 head to head games off the schedule to make up games against them. Momentum, cubs can't let the Reds at WF take the first 2 games against the cubs top 2 starters in rotation and carry that momentum into the final 2 games of series to go for the kill and push their lead on them to 8 games.
  7. I think it a definite must win game, they need to gain back the momentum they had going into Sunday game and stop the current losing streak, show that they can beat the Reds and not lose back to back games with (cubs) top 2 starters on the mound, fall 6 games back with 5 head to head remaining, and get back over 500 on the season.
  8. Minor trade.. https://twitter.com/sahadevsharma/status/1686409173565689860?t=o_345K-MtsNrQmEIVhVR8A&s=19
  9. I think everyone hoping to stay afloat til after the Braves series and then feed on the bad teams after that series
  10. I'll be happy if they just trade Stroman tomorrow and just let Assad take his spot in the rotation, cant be any worse but can be better
  11. Theyll probably look to trade him for PTBNL or cash consideration
  12. There will be teams who will feel a change of scenery will help. Cubs may have to eat a bit of it or take a lesser return
  13. Yep, I think they should definitely look to trade him in the offseason
  14. Looking ahead to Candelario arrival, im guessing the everyday lineup is going to look like this . Gomes, ??? , Hoerner, Swanson, Candelario, Happ, Bellinger, Suzuki, Morel So, are they giving up on Mervis at 1B or will we see him here tomorrow? Amaya, Barnhart, Tauchman Then 1 or 2 of Madrigal, Mancini, Wisdom Will they deal for a 1Bmen?
  15. Get out of this and hopefully the bats have a few more hits they can string together for a couple more runs
  16. Hoerner should've ran through the base too, not sure why he dove there
  17. So, are they not gonna score unless the Reds score 😏😏😏
  18. Assad gotta give the cubs 4 shutout innings here
  19. Sometimes all it takes is a real bad outing to knock a rookie starter who been hot off his game, maybe Abbott struggles a bit after this.
  20. Always tomorrow and then make a splash for Ohtani 😁
  21. Jose Cuas ?? I hope he just minor league depth, they traded Nelson Velasquez to Royals for him
