  1. Well tomorrow is gonna be annoying to simmer on this loss
  2. really wish the Cubs had done this deal
  3. I have the same issue with tmobile. I have to go like 3 miles down the street to get any reception
  4. That is one ugly bench
  5. Smart and good rotation by Counsell, I keep forgetting Ross isn't manager anymore and he definitely would have gone with four lefties in the rotation just because he loves Smyly.
  6. I dont think spring matters much but it is a bit concerning how bad he's looked in the field and at the plate against major league talent so far. But it's a minuscule sample size.
  7. I think for those 2, it was more about the draft pick loss. If they didn't have the qualifying offer attached, I bet one of them would have been a Cub, but then maybe either of them wouldn't have taken what is basically a one year deal.
  8. I don't get the point of cutting Brown, he better be sent down to start otherwise very stupid to send him down to continue in the bullpen.
  9. Given the circumstances he should have, not having the foresight to realize running your bullpen ragged would lead to injury or ineffectiveness was what mostly led to the Cubs epic collapse. Hindsight 20/20 but I think most people realized that Merryweather, Leiter and Alzolay were looking cooked the last 2 months and I was cringing each time they came in with big leads.
  10. Hoyer probably anticipated that Ross wouldn't use Brown anyways. He wasn't "one of the guys that got us here" look at Little, was barely used and the bullpen was imploded by Ross's stupidity.
  11. I think Busch has a great chance of flopping, thats why Bellinger is so important. Hoyer probably signed his love Dom Smith and Peralta as insurance for those reasons as well.
  12. I'm increasingly wanting the Cubs to add Montgomery, way too many question marks in the rotation right now and going with an complete unproven at the 5th starter seems too risky if they have actual playoff aspirations
  13. Yeah my first thought was this is a great opportunity for one of the kids. In spring training and possibly when the season starts.
  14. Yeah thats a good contract for the Giants.
  15. 2 straight misses by PCA here, Assad getting screwed big time
  16. Caissie is getting a decent chunk of playing time, would be cool to see him in Chicago sometime this year. Or maybe I'm getting too excited over a few spring games
  17. Yeah that would be best, really hope they stay away from the 3 catcher business tho
  18. Eh I'd say coming in as a defensive replacement isnt consistent playing time. Ross was definitely holding him up.
  19. Yeah I wouldn't do it, but idk what their plan is to split playing time at catcher.
