Wonder if hoyer will buck up and release smyly with another year to go on his contract. So many bad contracts handed out by hoyer. -
Yeah they are getting overused to death. Hoyer needs to bring up some new arms to get a look at, don't get the point of keeping relievers around that Ross only feels like using during blowouts.
-
Fulmer is mad inconsistent, I'd keep him out of all high leverage situations
-
The offense has been awful, only 3 on lyles and haven't been able to put much up against bottom feeding teams. Really concerned for when teams above .500 will be coming back around on the schedule.
-
Even the outs were all hit really hard. Should be an offensive explosion, but you never know,
-
Bums like Barnhart and Mancini have actually cost the team wins. Hoyer should have made these moves sooner. They'd be in a much better spot. Maybe he'll also stop signing crappy vets, those dollars could have been allocated much more intelligently.
-
The Royals bullpen is just too elite

8/17 - Off-Day Cubs Celebration
WhyCantWeWin replied to Brock Beauchamp's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Yep Hoyer hates slugging COF for some reason -
Rotation continues to suck. Who would have thought a Rotation full of 30+ bottom tier vets would not perform well?
-
I cringe each time I see Wisdom in the lineup. He's good for one random garbage time home run every few games and that's it.
-
You just don't bunt with a guy in scoring position lol. He's already in scoring position and the next guy can be intentionally walked to bring the force play into effect. But the Mets didn't have to do that due to Ross's poor lineup construction and decision making.
-
Ross just continues to lose them games with his stupid managing. Pushed all the wrong buttons today.
-
I bet Hendricks gives up a home run to Alonso but the Cubs still win because Peterson really sucks.
-
Gotta intentionally walk him
-
They have 2 40 man roster spots now with Jensen claimed by Seattle. Wonder what they are planning
-
Yeah his numbers were awful this year in the minors. It was going to catch up to him sooner or later, he just has no command.
-
At this point just ride palencia another inning and send him down tomorrow
-
Smyly does not belong in the rotation
-
It should be Wesneski but he got pointlessly used during the blowout game. Maybe next turn he'll get the nod. True, hopefully the offense steps up again. Wish Brown or Wicks were killing it in Iowa.
-
Weird that they benched Seiya due to their push to play their best players on a consistent basis but Smyly is still in the rotation when he's been awful. Maybe after another clunker they will finally wise up about him.
-
Bullpen and offense keeps doing its job, rotation has to be better.
-
This is why instead of having a turd 3rd catcher like Barnhart, you have a speed guy on your bench. Also would be dope of Adbert stopped throwing pitches right down the middle when he's up 0 - 2

Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 8-5-23
WhyCantWeWin replied to CaliforniaRaisin's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
So Horn, Roberson and Luke Little all got hammered today at Iowa. Guess none of them are coming up either short term -
Of course Bednar shits the bed the one time we need him to not suck.
-
Guessing Rucker gets called up for tomorrow even though he sucks. Wish they'd just call up one of the young arms.
