  1. I think its more rookie adjustments. I like how Shaw has been playing..hes gonna make mistakes but they are gonna pay off in the long run. Hes gonna be a cornerstone piece for us for a long time. Ive got a lot of faith in him and PCA.
  2. Hell of a deal for Boston if he stays healthy
  3. Oakland's offense honestly doesnt look half bad.
  4. I just did. Palencia is a much better relief prospect than Pearson. We already know what Pearson is and its bad. Dump him and move on to the next man up. If Palencia is bad, dump him move on to the next guy. All of these guys except Hodge should be on very short leashes.
  5. I'm not worried about Pressley just yet but I will admit to being nervous. Having Hodge ready to compete for the closer role eases my nerves but Pressley needs to get it together. I'm all for signing Robertson either way.
  6. im not gonna panic about the bullpen yet. Outside of the Morgan meltdown and Pressley looking mediocre, I still have faith in this group. Hodge looked dominant and Thielbar flashed some good stuff. Pearson can go though, dude just has zero idea where the ball is going to end up when it leaves his hand. I'd really like to see Ethan Roberts or Palencia up for him.
  7. Personally, my conspiracy theory is that Jed's idiotic plan is to let Tucker walk at the end of the year and he's hoping one of Cassie or Alcantara claims RF with their performance this season. They will make some low ball offer to Tucker to say that they tried and then TR will cry poor.
  8. If Matt McClain stays healthy this year, I think he is gonna be scary this season for the Reds. Good player. I can see a world where the Reds are competitive.
  9. Yeah I'm not concerned about spring stats. These guys arent really pitching how they typically would in a game. They are likely working on different things.
  10. I feel like the Cubs always like having their prospects play multiple positions in the minors. I feel like that was a Theo directive. I remember when Teho took over he mentioned in an interview once that he wanted guys to be able to play multiple positions.
  11. God, I really want the Cubs to develop one of these international super prospects. I'd like to have a top 5 prospect in the game once again. It looks like the Brewers have two more of them potentially in the pipeline as well with Jesus Made and Luis Pena.
  12. I can see that. He has the frame to pack more muscle than Bellinger I think. Love the tools. Im hoping that two year burn is what happens with Chris Paciolla this year
  13. Yeah. Mathis just looks like a future pro. I think the bat will move quickly through the system. Hopefully, he can play 3B at a serviceable level when hes healthy. The guy im keeping a really close eye on this year is Eli Lovich. Hoping the Cubs struck gold again in the 11th like they did with Hope. There is a lot to like in his profile. Hoping he put on some more weight in the offseason.
  14. Yeah. I'm not concerned about Tucker at all. We have no clue what hes working on
  15. Horton stays healthy all year and establishes himself as the Ace of the staff by years end Shaw wins ROTY (maybe not that bold) Michael Busch has a 30 HR season The Cubs win 95 games and easily take the division Jaxon Wiggins takes a major step forward with his command and control and is a key contributor down the stretch.
  16. Brown in the 5 spot would be nice. His stuff is filthy.
  17. Yeah it was absolutely surreal. I remember looking at my Dad, thinking that's a torn ACL. Pretty sure the entirety of the 03 season is a core memory for me haha
  18. I'm gonna be honest I completely forgot about Turner lol. I havent heard anything from him this ST.
