  1. My opinion is that if you have four starters going into Spring Training, you need two more.
  2. Yep, the Cubs have the opportunity to basically bury the Reds in the divisional race and seriously hinder their Wild Card chances.
  3. The public research around pitcher innings is definitely at least somewhat speculative and stuff like the Verducci Effect has been discredited loads of times. But there are still questions around young pitcher usage, they're just really nebulous and hard to nail down, at least from the public perspective. I hope teams have a better grasp on it but given the number of pitcher injuries, it's hard to believe they have a good idea how to counter it, either.
  4. I'm looking for something like this. I'll assist with the tech, formatting, imagery, etc. but I need someone to do the legwork and someone who has the institutional knowledge to write something this in-depth. Obviously, we'll pay for it. How much? I'm not sure but at least $100, maybe more depending on length. Anyone up for writing something like this that covers seating, concessions, bars/food outside the stadium, parking/transit, etc? https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-guides-resources/the-ultimate-fan-guide-to-target-field-r3/
  5. The Cubs are closing out August in a very solid position. three games back of the division and the Brewers and sitting in the second Wild Card position, two games ahead of the Giants and three games behind the Phillies. As a topic starter, who else is concerned about the number of innings Justin Steele might throw at this rate?
  6. A couple of really hard-fought wins by the Cubs. Well done and they’re still in the race.
  7. Wow, FanGraphs has the Cubs' postseason odds at 69.4% now!
  8. That was quite a game last night and certainly lived up to its billing as a pitching duel. Steele went toe-to-toe with Corbin Burnes and ended up with the win, though that pitch count was becoming concerning late in the game. Today isn't must-win but it's close if the Cubs are interested in a division title. Leaving this series down five with 30 to play is a very deep hole.
  9. This should be a great pitcher's duel, which means it will probably end as a 10-9 barnburner.
  10. He probably injured himself during the photoshoot.
  11. One more game versus the Pirates, then it's back home to Wrigley against the Brewers!
  12. Well, I mean... he can be worse than Smyly, we just hope that won't be the case and it's definitely worth trying.
  13. Two games left to make some hay against the Pirates before the Cubs move on to their real test of the final month of the season, the Brewers. If Assad continues to establish himself, that's pretty huge for the Cubs both in the coming weeks but also the coming seasons as a back-of-the-rotation arm.
  14. Last night was a wild one. I thought the Cubs were going to win going away but somehow the game ended in extras. The Cubs aren't winning prettily but they're winning.
  15. The NL Wild Card race is heating back up, as previously fading teams like the Diamondbacks and Reds have strung together multiple wins in a row. The good news is that those two teams play each other in a series, starting tonight! The Cubs are nearing the end of their cupcake schedule, now moving to Pittsburgh to meet their most feared opponent, TBD.
  16. I have to say this thread is off to a rousing start.
  17. Get the win, get out of Detroit in good shape. Can Jameson Taillon do that?
  18. No, this should NEVER happen. If it does, please let me know. I have interstitial ads like this disabled because they're infuriating.
  19. Last night was a weird and slightly dumb game but it resulted in a win so that's fun. Tonight, Drew Smyly takes the mound. Hopefully Detroit brings their ineptitude A game with the bats.
  20. This would have to be an addition to the RTE. Hmm, I'll have to think about the mechanics on this a bit.
