  1. One of Cassie/Alcantara/MoBaller, one of Triantos/Rojas and one of Assad/Wicks/Wiggins. That's probably close. Shaw and Cam Smith are the two untouchables for me right now. Mo Baller is close because of the bat but like 1908 said, if they wanted him I'd trade him.
  2. Nice. Should strengthen the bullpen.
  3. Liked Rosario but dont mind giving him up here. Has way too much risk and the K rate annoyed me. Good move
  4. Im not counting out the Cubs but I find it hard to believe he doesnt sign with the Dodgers.
  5. Id like to avoid dealing Shaw or Cam Smith in any deal this offseason. I think we have the depth to get any deal done with out including those two.
  6. Could just send him across town for Crochet.
  7. We did get some reports that the Cubs were pursuing catchers like O'Hoope at the trade deadline. I imagine they revisit that in the offseason. We gotta get some pop back there. Langerliers would be nice to pair with Amaya like everyone keeps saying.
  8. I'm not worried about it and I dont think he does but the Dodgers got money to do weird things. Ive been guessing hes gets like a 1+1 deal with an option for like 26 mil total.
  9. I agree we should be past it but I'm expecting one FA pitcher in the Burnes tier and at the time a reclamation guy like Buehler or Bieber. The equation changed a bit imo with how well he pitched in the postseason. If he gets a QO from the Dodgers, I'm not interested. Its a move that just screams Jed to me.
  10. What kind of deal does Walker Buehler get this offseason? I was interested in him before the playoffs but his performance there probably bumped up his price a bit. He's gonna be an interesting guy to follow this year.
  11. Im guessing we get one of Fried or Burnes and then sign a reclamation guy like Bueler or Bieber. Assad should be a long relief bullpen guy anyway. Hes a valuable guy to have.
  12. I really dont know at this point. Its a good question. But we desperately need one.
  13. If we dont add a power bat, im expecting more of the same. Jed dumpster diving for "value" instead of actually trying to compete.
  14. Good job this year CR! thanks for your work.
  15. God I was a massive Sean Gallagher fan at the time. I thought he was a future frontline starter at the time lol
  16. I am ready for the Matt Shaw era to begin
  17. This is the type of player Jed does not want on the Cubs
  18. As much as i like Nico, im ready for Shaw to take over at 2nd
  19. Im completely against trading Cam Smith and Matt Shaw. Mostly because Parades has been unimpressive so far. Id like to have some potential depth at 3rd long term. I could be talked into Horton in the right deal just because hes a pitcher. I could be talked into moving Cassie and KA as well in the right move. But im definetly keeping one of them. Cassie depends on if Belli opts out or not. Alcantara is also a guy id love to keep just because of the ceiling. He also needs another full year at AAA imo. Triantos is the main guy im shopping this year. I think hes gonna be a quality MLB player but the lack of a defensive position and the lack of power at the moment make me question what his ceiling can be. Mo Baller is definetly on the block for me too. Would love to keep him because i think the bat is special but too many question marks defensively. This is gonna be a tough offseason but it is definetly time to cash some chips in
  20. This is gonna sound dumb but it almost looked like heartburn to me
  21. Cassie is really ending the year on a nice power surge.
