I understand its only been 2 months but the Bregman signing looks like horsefeathers. $35 million a year needs to produce wayyyy more than this. Plus I didn't realize hes already 32.
Swanson and Bregman are making a combined $63 million a year. About a 1/4 of the entire payroll.
Yikes.
Yeah, we have enough of a sample size now to show that Jed just isn't good enough. Hes decent, he can build a competitive team, but hes never getting you over the top. Sad thing is he is here for another 3+ years.
Wiggins is Cade Horton 2.0, two guys who will never be healthy and you absolutely can not count on.
Massive arm injury is right around the corner for Wiggins. The Cubs have babied his arm more than Hortons and it still constantly falls apart.
