Great hitting

Lol

Busch!

Exactly how I feel. No doubt in my mind that trade only happened because some guys in the Cubs FO were fighting to save their jobs going into last season.

Assad has always been pretty good, no idea why he's always rotting in the minor leagues and Ben Brown gets featured

I don't think this team is worse than the one that was 1 game away from the NLCS last year, even without Cade Horton. They do need the rest of the rotation to be healthy though, including Steele. Bullpen will get into form soon. Lineup concerns me a bit but they have the pieces to at least be an above average offense.

I get the point that's being made about sample size, but Cam Smith is 23 years old, what if he's turning a corner as a lot of 2nd year players do? They could have made that trade without Smith

Well, we all knew this day was coming eventually. But Cam Smith looks like he's becoming one of the best outfielders in the game and a cornerstone. I don't blame Jed for that trade. He wouldn't be the current GM if the Cubs missed the playoffs last year. I just wish they pulled that trade off without including Smith. The Cubs are a middle of the order bat away from being truly elite.

the Cubs will be 10+ games over .500 by the end of May

This dweeb comes in with a 3 run lead and just ruins the game immediately... 🙄

Ben Brown should never pitch unless the Cubs are up or down 5 runs. Shota pitched great.

Shaw!

yeah I was wrong. Cabrera is a dawg

5 of the 6 home runs this season have been by Happ and Bregman so far. It would be nice to see someone else step up today, like PCA and Busch.

Yup it's over. Although I thought that Amaya was finished after his injury last year and he nearly came back in time for the playoffs lol
