  1. Ive taken my wife to several Phillies games in Milwaukee and the fans are great.
  2. Unfortunately I think the Cubs are going to be one of the 1st teams without a chair
  3. Yeah, even Belli. They won't replaces Schwarbers pop, but the run prevention over Castellanos would be significant. Bader/Marsh platoon in CF and the rookie in left. If Wheeler comes back its a rotation of Sanchez, Wheeler, Nola, Luzardo and Walker? Thats going to be an easy playoff team. If they do resign Schwarber, I think they will need to find a RH bat to play right. They cannot send Castellanos out there another year
  4. I think the Yankees will do what it takes to keep him. But I think he will have a strong market. Hits LHers real well, plays solid defense. Good ballplayer. I think if the Tucker money gets too high, several teams could pivot to Belli
  5. My wife is a Phillies fan, so I get to watch plenty of them. I actually think they would be better served letting Schwarber go and putting those resources into a power hitting corner OFer who can at least play average defense. Castellanos can be a DH. And yeah if the can get better defense at SS and move Turner to 3rd. I know Bohm is a well loved teammate, but not enough power to justify that defense. They probably have to resign Realmutto. Also, need a backup catcher badly
  6. Managerial decisions are overrated/ players executing is underrated come playoff time. Counsell like any player who is a FA is paid really well based on past performance. I also think Hoyer really wanted Counsell not because of who he is going to pick to start game 4(I bet Hoyer is probably part of that decision) but his ability/patience in developing young players. Plus helping create a winning environment
  7. I think Chuck Norris has posted more words in his first thread than I have in 20 plus yrs
  8. Cubs will not advance in this series unless Boyd gives them 1 okay start. Unless you are hoping on Soroka, Civale orBrown
  9. As someone who has lived in the Champaign area for a lot of years, but am not an Illinois fan. I just want to say, be okay with being good most of the time and great every now and then. Lou Tepper was so under appreciated. Illinois is probably never going to be OSU. But they can be Iowa or what Wisconsin was for several decades
  10. I think Beilema has a way with 3 star players. He was never a great recruiter at Wisconsin either. Not everyone gets good results out of 5 stars
  11. I would live Peralta pitching tomorrow. He is pitching 1 of these games and I prefer it be tomorrow.
  12. Put me down for not taking Taillon out....in the after the fact chest thumping contest
  13. Javier Baez 2-3 with 3 rbi and a Homer today. Its all things Cubs today
  14. I know i am old, but some of the arguments here are so stupid. Hoerner is not what is wrong with this team. He is also far from what is right. Arguing over some extension that probably isnt happening is just stupid. I dont think the current Cubs value him as much as some pro Hoerner people think. So he is not getting extended. End of story
  15. I watched the Cardinals do it for so many years, I do believe its more than Pixie Dust. Some organizations are just good at what they are doing.
  16. Yeah Kiki effing Hernandez who is awful, will out Brewer the Brewers
  17. Would have gotten out of that inning with no runs allowed if he made the play
  18. Sure helps that Snell, Glasnow and Ohtani probably have less innings pitched combined than Boyd
