Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 7-22-25

This guy better be in LF for the Cubs in 2026 -
Lol.. Per @ESPNStatsInfo: Justin Turner (40) stealing on Rich Hill (45) is the first instance of a 40+ year old runner stealing a base off of a 40+ year old pitcher since Craig Biggio did so against David Wells on July 26, 2007
-
Hill would be a perfect reliever to bring in before or after a guy throwing 100+ 😅
-
I cant believe it been 13 years since Moyer pitched, feels like i just saw him pitching last season 😅 Wonder who'll be the next 45 yo SP we'll be watching and remembering his rookie season lol
-
Do major league players ever adjust their spot in box to a pitcher? They know he coming with slow curves after slow curves with an occasional FB that might reach 90, so why not move up in the box and not be so far out in front to where youre hitting pop up and soft grounders
-
Lmao, WF crowd always cracks me up with the roar for every ball in the air 🤣
-
Just hit a homer and you wont have to run hard
-
Cubs are winning big tonight.. book it

Those guys are pretty much extinct now, because teams dont build up their pitching in their system to throw over 100 pitches to go 8-9 innings anymore. SP are being brought up to go about 90 pitches and hope it can get them into the 7th at best, but in most cases the red flag is being waved once a SP hits 80 pitches or the 3rd time through a batting order, and yes theres a very small amount of starters now that can actually be counted on to get outs a third time through.
-
Just saying that it cant be much enjoyable for you to continue watching if you have low confidence in those SP, especially Imanaga, to win games the rest of season or in the postseason, what the joy in that ?
-
Sorry to say this, but you probably should just stop watching then if you have zero confidence in any of these guys. I mean, what the point of watching the rest of the season if you dont expect them to succeed or be competitive enough to win games the rest of year and into the postseason? Imanaga their guy, if you have no confidence in him winning games in the postseason, like i said you might as well stop watching 🤷♂️
-
Imanaga is a guy we can trust to match up well against any opposing number one they will face in the postseason. After him is the question... Boyd is having a career year for himself, can he continue and continue it into the postseason is questionable, let hope so. The number 3 guy in the postseason rotation is where Hoyer needs to put his big boy GM pants on and figure out who and how to bring in another quality starter to go with Imanaga and Boyd, preferably one that can match up and pitch game 2, with Boyd being questionable for now as far as if he can continue having this great season, having him match up against opponents number 3 would be preferable.
-
Cubs are about to go on a 5 game win streak and it could of been longer if they had a normal SP yesterday instead of a bullpen game. Yes it sucks to give up the lead, just remember there 8 more head to head games against the Brewers that when we'll see where theyre at, and something tells me the Brewers wont be on this winning trip theyre on now.
-
They smell blood in the water
-
It would require a move to 40 man roster but I wouldn't mind giving Connor Noland an opportunity
-
Suarez with another homer tonight, trying to keep up with Shaw 😅
-
There's only one more bullpen game left til the deadline, what done is done. They should win their next 5-6 games if they just play good baseball against two bad teams.
-
I guess as far as the trade deadline goes, we should be rooting against the bubble teams that have good pitching to sell so they dont decide to hold them 🤷♂️
-
Maybe he should start Sunday against the Sox 🤷♂️
-
One more to go 🤷♂️
-
They just need to get another SP to go with Imanaga and Boyd to fix the rotation. The bullpen just needs another late inning guy to go with Theilbar and Palencia Just talking 2 additions that aren't hard get if youre willing to pay
