  1. The question becomes how valuable is it to the Cubs to move him and have the guranteed financial freedom it would create over the next two seasons? I hate that we're at this point, but he's on a 2.6 fWAR pace per 162 games this season (2.3ish at his true pace of around 145 games). Not horrible, but not the type of value you want to be paying $26.6m AAV for. Which scenario would you guys prefer if the Cubs are sellers/non-buyers? - Move him for a package that's most likely going to be underwhelming, but it guarantee's the Cubs have $26mish extra next offseason to plug other holes - Hold onto him because he is a useful/versatile player and hope if he opts in, that he can have a season closer to the 2023 season.
  2. O/U PCA 60 SB next year, what say you?
  3. "We'll see how it goes." - Sounds like a manager who has little confidence in this move.
  4. Some hard contact off of Shota to start. Hopefully that trend doesn't continue.
  5. Discuss away
  6. Would be cool if we would swing at pitches down the middle
  7. We’re going to need the offense to show up today….
  8. This Mets team has been scorching hot, bad time to run into them.
  9. 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.
  10. Davis finally get his shot? Or go outside the box and make room for Caissie?
  11. 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.
  12. Bottom 1st, two outs, and already pissed. Love these Cubbies
  13. Wind blowing out, Mikolas pumping 91 right down the middle - fully expect 6 shutout from him today.
  14. 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
  15. He's just saying that overall, the internal players will be responsible for how well this team does. Which is true.
