  1. Javier Baez 2-3 with 3 rbi and a Homer today. Its all things Cubs today
  2. 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
  3. 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.
  4. Yeah Kiki effing Hernandez who is awful, will out Brewer the Brewers
  5. Would have gotten out of that inning with no runs allowed if he made the play
  6. Sure helps that Snell, Glasnow and Ohtani probably have less innings pitched combined than Boyd
  7. If Shaw comes up against a RH later in the game if runners are on,PH for him. I would have Busch behind Happ or between Kelly and Swanson. Its just my counter to starting Ashby. Could put Swanson at 2 also.
  8. I think Texas does also.
  9. Because Ben Brown was the only pitcher who was well rested and had success against the Brewers this season, which seemed to be your criteria. I get the criticism, but all of the options came with big question marks. They picked wrong and adjusted quickly. Unfortunately Soroka was worse. Here is the truth with this series, the Cubs are in a bad way with starting pitching. They are going to need to score 5+ runs a game to have a chance. A healthy Horton or close the Padres out in 2 and it would not have been so bad
  10. 3 of the top 4 preseason teams not ranked this week. Really hard to see any of them making playoffs
  11. Using this logic, Ben Brown should have been the game 1 starter.
  12. At the end of the day, players need to perform well. Its that simple. The Cubs first 2 pitchers didn't get the job done. I still like their stuff better than Rea and Civale. I think they are going to be in a bad way all series with starting pitching. Cubs hitters are going to score 5 plus runs a game to have a shot.
  13. In this case its true. Its not like Colin Rea was the obvious correct decision. It wasnt an egregious decision.
  14. No. But his name has made him more highly rated than he should be. I think if he sticks around another year, he will improve quite a bit. I also think Texas high preseason ranking had a lot to do with his name.
  15. He might be gone tomorrow UCLA got smoked by New Mexico who lost to San Jose St last night
  16. Unexpectedly watching a lot of CFB today. Wish there were better games on
  17. I am not going to see what was talked about during game thread....but if Schildt was willing to use Morejon, how co.e he didn't start the inning with him
  18. I kind of get that. Im not saying I was indifferent about it, but I would say I would have not thought the season a success if they lost. Now I think the Cubs are playing with house money
  19. I would have him lay one down in his first AB as long as its situation appropriate
  20. I would have him lay one down in his first AB as long as its situation appropriate
