I think you can maximize Bellingers defensive value at RF, that's why I'd prefer him there.
-
PCA - CF Bellinger - RF Suzuki - DH
-
Close enough
-
Personally would have dumped Killian if they wanted to clear a pitcher. But won't lose any sleep over this. -
I think Rosenthal mentioned that Bellinger got some mid tier offers but he preferred to get a high aav one with an opt out. He's really banking on himself.
-
Busch is playing today
-
Regarding the 40 man crunch, maybe they can trade Smyly to one of the teams that were connected to the Boras pitching clients. Rangers or Yankees, would save them 11 mil too. That's not obscene given what some pitchers made this offseason
-
Wisdom trade makes sense. Would also save them another 3 mil. Making a trade deadline trade possible without hitting the first tax line.
-
Mastrobuoni or Mervis is my guess
-
Lmao that was Cuzi, havent seem him on in a while
-
Speaking of opt outs, Bellinger, Imanga and Neris all got one. Guess that's Hoyers thing
-
From 300 mil to 80 mil, Hoyer is definitely going to keep this approach as long as he's POBO now, as boring as it is as a fan it worked twice this offseason. I'd say the team is now better talent wise than the team last year with Bellinger back, the prospects that will likely come up and the fact that you now have a manager that isn't a complete moron like Ross. Division favorites.

Joe Hudson > Joe Mather
-
Well that's a way I would have never thought about my post. I don't want to get political about my nuts now. I will reconsider my earlier comment.
-
It worked tho right? Instead of politics you are thinking about nuts now
-
I'm gonna slit my nuts if Peralta or Dom Smith see a single major league AB with the Cubs. Has Hoyer learned nothing from his crap signings from last year? Either sign the big stars or letting the horsefeathers kids play. Stop giving at bats to scrubs.
-
Doesn't change the fact. The Cubs will have to hand out a 200 mil plus contract eventually even if hoyer is afraid. Just pathetic the Royals beat them to it.
-
How do you twist me mentioning the Royals outspending the Cubs into your goofy comment? Like I'm clearly complaining the Cubs aren't signing top tier talent the last couple of offseasons. I swear some of you have Hoyers schlong so deeply embedded in your throats and will try to defend him in the silliest of ways. The Royals have outspent the Cubs and that's a fact.
-
Royals outspending the Cubs. New levels of pathetic being achieved by this organization
-
Isn't that a lot to give up for Polanco?
-
Does anyone know what date does the draft compensation penalty not apply any longer when signing a free agent?
-
Yeah no offense to Bobby but idk how all trump supporters seem to say the dumbest horsefeathers after they are presented with facts.
-
Cubs sign Hector Neris to 1yr /$9m with options
WhyCantWeWin replied to Jason Ross's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
that's a very solid deal, guess they are done with the bullpen now. -
Yeah thats a good comp, both coming off missed years too.
-
Bellinger had the mutual option for the second year so both parties had to exercise it. Hoskins gets a opt out so it's a 2 year deal unless he leaves after the first. Boras was adamant about getting him that second year, must not be all that confident that he will bounce back the first year.
