  1. Would be cool if we would swing at pitches down the middle
  2. We’re going to need the offense to show up today….
  3. This Mets team has been scorching hot, bad time to run into them.
  4. I'm not sure what they need to do with him in terms of approach. It's low and away every AB and he rolls it over to the left side. You hate to take away from his power approach, but at some point, he'll need to start going with the pitch away and taking some off the swing if this trend continues.
  5. Davis finally get his shot? Or go outside the box and make room for Caissie?
  6. When you have a team full of sub-optimal power bats combined with the dead ball situation we have going on in baseball = warning track power.
  7. Bottom 1st, two outs, and already pissed. Love these Cubbies
  8. Wind blowing out, Mikolas pumping 91 right down the middle - fully expect 6 shutout from him today.
  9. Looking at these three teams, I think we can get an idea on what to expect our deadline to look like: Arizona 2023 Hitting - 18th wRC+ SP - 14th fWAR RP - 24th fWAR Fielding - 2nd fDEF Deadline adds - Sewald/Pham/Jace Peterson/Strzelecki Phillies 2022 Hitting - 10th wRC+ SP - 2nd fWAR RP - 9th fWAR Fielding - 28th fDEF Deadline adds - Marsh/Syndergaard/Robertson Braves 2021 Hitting - 12th wRC+ SP - 13th fWAR RP - 13th fWAR Fielding - 15th fDEF Deadline adds - Joc/Soler/Rosario/Duvall Cubs 2024 Hitting - 17th wRC+ SP - 11th fWAR RP - 22nd fWAR Fielding - 24th fDEF
  10. He's just saying that overall, the internal players will be responsible for how well this team does. Which is true.
  11. While 2021 might not be completely repeatable, he's a launch angle tweak away from being close. When you say "years removed from being a difference maker", it makes the guy sound like he's on the wrong side of 30 - He's 25 and just entering his prime. His Savant page is fantastic, outside of his LA. To me, this is a guy who has a 130 wRC+ floor over the next 7ish years with a possibility of converting him back to a fly ball hitter and have him turn into the superstar bat that he has the potential of.
  12. Just go ahead and throw in Yimi as well and make it a one stop shop.
  13. No clue. Haven’t bought a Cubs jersey since Sosa/Kerry Wood. However, I would buy two Soto jerseys if you’re listening Tom/Jed.
  14. You’re going to watch the Cubs get the leadoff guy on every inning and not convert and you’re going to like it!
  15. They’ve had some solid swings off of Shota so far, luckily multiple have been foul besides that one. Just keep guys off the base paths and we can live with solo shots.
  16. Front office pushing out this smoke to try to show the fanbase they are working on deals? Seems odd that this and the Vlad Jr stuff would leak all of a sudden.
  17. I just find it hilarious that we are in a position where Wisdom is the “best” play to leadoff. 0-6 with 5k’s against lefties so far.
  18. Interesting - they just said on the broadcast Busch has been taking grounders at 2b and also has continued to work at 3b.
