That would be awful..
-
He got caught in between diving and not diving on a fly ball to right, and looked like he tweaked something. Looks like he might have turned his ankle but not sure.
-
I'm not trying to dog on the Nico extension, I love the player and person dearly, but if Ramirez ends up being legit that move ends up being a bit of a head scratcher.
-
If it wasn't for that unicorn in Milwaukee, Ben might have gotten a chance to start the All Star game this year
-
that’s terrible
-
Ben doesn't have his best stuff and still looks pretty damn good
-
Suzuki has turned around his season in a big way too
-
PCA has an .805 OPS now
-
That sinker is unhittable..
-
great defense
-
+ Steele and that's the type of home grown rotation we've been dreaming about for decades. I'm no fan of Jed but this team is definitely legit if not for injuries.
-
I already know Ben will have a great outing tonight. Been a while since I've had that type of confidence in a Cubs SP. As far as I'm concerned Brown, PCA, Busch are the faces of this org.
-
That kid might just be generational. If I recall, Randy Johnson avoided major elbow and arm injuries.
-
The worst part is that the Cubs are locked into this mediocrity for a while. Bregman, Swanson, Hoerner, Cabrera, all here for years to come. Turns out Ricketts was right in previous years not to let Jed spend money.
-
When it's all said and done, Jed will be a 10+ year GM with maybe 2 playoff appearances under his belt
-
This has to be one of the worst collapses in MLB regular season history. From 15 games above .500 to a likely <.500 team in like 4 or 5 weeks. By my count, they have won 7 of their last 29 games
-
Whatever the Cubs do in July, whether it's buying or selling, I do not trust this GM to get it right or this manager to develop the player. Something is broken with this team. Great HR though
-
So the Cubs are the most disappointing team in baseball relative to their expectations, while on the South Side the vibes have never been higher in recent memory. The Brewers will win the division by 10+ games again. The Cardinals are good again. Genuinely don't know what it will take for the Cubs to clean house and fire Hoyer/Counsell, but it's come to the point where everything has to be on the table. Counsell has been so bad lately that I find myself missing Rossy.
-
I have no idea how Breslow still has a job. He's even worse than Jed. 😂
-
haha, fair. I'm not sure what the Guardians would want but I'm certain the Cubs could make it happen if they really wanted him. Wiggins, Rojas, Conrad. whatever.
-
I would love for the Cubs to make a move similar to the Morel trade they made a few years ago. Leverage a young guy on this team who has some potential + a top prospect, for a guy that has a chance to be an actual star. Obviously the Morel/Parades move didn't work out, but I liked that Jed showed some courage for a change and made a big move. Chase Delauter from the Guardians is a pretty great prospect (imo). Strikes out less than 12% of the time, Walks over 10%, unique swing that plays at Wrigley Field. Has a great approach. I'm not great at mock trades but maybe something like Boyd, Suzuki and Ballesteros for DeLauter and one of their top 10-15 prospects? Cubs give up 2 expiring contracts plus a decent hitter in Ballesteros for a guy they can plug into RF next year and who fits the high contact approach that this team seems to love. Seeing a guy like Benge go 5/5 yesterday, and the Sox call up Montgomery today... why the horsefeathers can't the Cubs find a guy like that?
-
I’ve been as bearish on this offense as anyone all year, but even I’m impressed at this new low. They are probably sellers at this point. Nobody can pretend anymore that this is a good offense.
-
Appreciate it
-
Random question - does Jason McLeod still work in the Cubs org? I was curious, so I googled it and every article I can find online says that he left the Cubs in 2021. Yet, his LinkedIn says he still works for the Cubs and the homepage article on NSBB has a recent looking picture of him and Jed on the field.

PCA is a superstar. Now go find another one.. or three.
