  1. Dont know if Bregman should be taking advice from Swanson before hitting... Lol
  2. Who needs Schwarber when you have P C A Hitting bombs
  3. Senga gonna pitch 6 shutout innings with 10 Ks tonight, isnt he 🙄🙄🙄🙄
  4. No, he regretted letting him go but my post was about signing him over Bregman last offseason and if Hoyer who has that regret, had made him an offer or not
  5. Talking about last offseason when he was a FA, not when they non tendered him.
  6. Does changing leagues mean as much anymore with interleague play and scheduling now. Bringing Schwarber back was my first choice, would of been perfect with him as DH and just play Shaw at 3B. I was surprised and ok with Bregman, hes just been a major disappointment so far.
  7. Off topic but seeing some Schwarber mentions on X, etc. and Hoyer saying that was one of his biggest regrets. Made me wonder if Hoyer ever even made Schwarber an offer to return this past offseason , definitely would of preferred having Schwarber (5/150) over Bregman (5/175).
  8. Good. Hope they just set an X amount of pitches or innings for him, then just shut him down the rest of season. Have him go through his normal offseason routine and be ready for whenever ST starts up. He'll be more important for next season rotation then whatever he can give this season.
  9. Theres 4 guys in the system I dont want to see moved this deadline and that.... Rojas, Hartshorn, Ayers, and Wiggins These are 4 guys id love to see on the 2028 opening day roster as starters.
  10. I think new projections may have them being closer to 80-85 wins now, and that will mostly depend on what they can get out of the pitching side until at least the deadline. Theres 34 games til the deadline, if they can find a way to win 20 of those, i think theyll be in pretty good shape from there if Hoyer can add a solid arm or two to the rotation and bullpen to get them through to the postseason and raise that win total to at least 90
  11. Feel bad for the little kids that were excited getting dad tickets for father's day today
  12. Hes grasping to try and save the season somehow. They miss the playoffs, itll be a bad look for him
  13. I dont know what it is with him this season, not even sure its steaky anymore. he'll get his hits and walks here and there, had an awesome on base streak going earlier this season, power is good with 16 HRs. But, theres still something off with him this season, the obvious clutch hitting with RISP is terrible, strikeouts are way up, feels like the only time he drives in a run is with a homerun. I dont know, I think instead of being streaky this season, hes more of hitting in pockets (so to speak), and that is mostly when he hits his homers and multi hit games. Other then those pockets here and there, hes been pretty quiet offensively overall with his hitting. Like now, hes 6 for last 16, but theyre quiet hits, 1 DB 5 singles, zero RBI. Hits are hits, but for a middle of order guy, you'd like a little noise with these hits..lol Yes you need the guys in front of him on base and hes had those opportunities, but when he does get a hit, theyre quiet ones..lol
  14. Losing this game being up 5-0 after 7 is like the Bears being up 20-0 with 5 minutes left and end up losing 21-20 🙄🙄🙄
  15. Ehhh I'd be surprise if it even Alcantara, especially if Shaw ends up an everyday guy in OF. Happ is what he is now, a guy, he can give you a banger of a series or two, and then disappear or give you little for a couple weeks. Sure, he may get his 750+ OPS and 20-25 HRs, this and next season, but theres just way too many disappointing games in between the bangers now.. 🤷
  16. For me, they can both take a walk, their better years are behind them. both gonna be 32 next season
  17. Rizzo was no slouch as a Cub.. His D at first was outstanding and his bat was really good with the Cubs. 272/372/489/861 1311 hits, 242 HRs All with the Cubs
  18. Fake rally it is.. Loaded up, get a run off a ground out and nothing more Like I said, if middle guys could actually drive in runs 🙄🙄🙄
  19. Middle guys gonna get another opportunity here, starting with Nico
  20. They have a couple decent arms, its just the overall weakness of the group pops up very easily and often, especially when theyre being overused because they dont have starters that can go 6 innings consistently enough.
  21. Cubs should of had 8-9 runs easily if they had a middle of order that can actually drive in runs. This bullpen, it goes south too easily Why pull Rolison after 1 pitch, it not like they have any shutdown guys in that pen
