    Before the season I had them at 77-78 wins. Maybe I bump that a game now but not enough to really matter. So pretty much the same as before.
  2. Brock Beauchamp
    Catching up on last night's game and the A's are somehow worse than I thought they were.
  3. Brock Beauchamp
    I simply don't get the third catcher thing. I didn't understand it 15 years ago when the Twins did it constantly and I sure as hell don't get it today when benches are shorter because bullpens are longer.

    I thought "Maybe StatCast has the answers! Off to Baseball Savant I go!" Narrator: "StatCast did not, in fact, have the answers, and Brock left more confused than he entered."

    Eight home runs with a 1.139 OPS.

    Playing the A's is fun! (provided you don't actually have to sit in their stadium) The pitching and hitting advantage couldn't be more in favor of the Cubs tonight, which reduces their chance of winning to 40%, tops.

    I choose Mancini every time. And he’s a platoon for Mervis.
  8. Brock Beauchamp
    Slightly subpar. No more than 74 wins, I think.
  9. Brock Beauchamp
    He’s not a good announcer.
  10. Brock Beauchamp
    Yeah, almost no one has Buxton’s speed and defense. It’s a shame people don’t get to see a healthy version of him more often.
  11. Brock Beauchamp
    Yeah, I thought about that but ultimately, a spade needs to be called a spade. And the A’s are HORRIBLE.
  12. Brock Beauchamp
    This is correct.

    Hey now, the tracker is barely finished and launched and it's already listed on the third page of googling "cubs top prospects". Lots of work to do there but the tracker is one of the ways we bring in new users.

    You suckas do. We hold a vote every 6-ish weeks.
  15. Brock Beauchamp
    If the Cubs are close to .500 after that stretch, they should be all in. Yikes. That's brutal.
  16. Brock Beauchamp
    It's a somewhat arbitrary number, really. Should it be 48 games? 60 games? *shrugs* And I think some teams are just going to play more/less of those "bucket" games in any given season. Did the 2022 Dodgers *really* automatically lose 54 games? I mean, obviously not... they didn't even lose 54 games. Bad teams won't automatically win 54. Great teams won't automatically lose 54. And to your point, I suspect those 78-84 win teams largely thrive or decline based playing more of those bucket games and winning/losing them...
  17. Brock Beauchamp
    This hurts, man. It's absolutely true but it hurts.
  18. Brock Beauchamp
    Yet another late-night game. The Cubs should expect to play in front of a raucous crowd of three to four hundred people in the dumpster fire of a stadium called the Colisseum, o.Co, Network Something or Other, Overstock.com, or whatever shameless corporate entity has the intestinal fortitude to affix their name to the current Oakland A's franchise.
  19. Brock Beauchamp
    Boo. Well, it was fun while it lasted.
  20. Brock Beauchamp
    That's fair, I suppose. They're missing that elite arm that gets the team out of 30-40 late and close innings a season.
  21. Brock Beauchamp
    Definitely, but this felt like a given going into the season. Michael Fulmer is a good seventh inning option, a meh eighth inning option, and a rather bad "bullpen ace". There isn't nearly enough depth in the Cubs pen right now, IMO.
  22. Brock Beauchamp
    So close to a sweep. An impressive feat any time you head into Dodger Stadium.
  23. Brock Beauchamp
    Bad luck for Mancini there. His glove fell off. Litrally.
  24. Brock Beauchamp
    Yeah, wasn't really commenting they were doing anything wrong, the options aren't great across the board. Could have really used an insurance run there.
  25. Brock Beauchamp
    That's a tall order for Boxberger (but I agree that it'd be insane to use Fulmer again). He has little to no leeway coming, Betts is due to be the third batter of the inning with Freeman following.
