  1. Assad is an amazing #3 pitcher. Hope he's here a long time
  2. What is that, 4 or 5 games in a row where they ruin the game. Even the win against the Mets that ended at the plate, they got lucky,.. maybe get some dead weight like Mervis and Madrigal off of this team and go sign a reliever worth a damn
  3. lmao it's actually 20 million a year and what power? when is the last time he's hit a home run? The fluke grand slam he got almost 3 weeks ago? If he was on the open market, nobody is paying him anything near what the Cubs gave him. Maybe the Cubs wouldn't have to count pennies if they stopped handing out sunk-cost contracts to players like Jason Heyward, Ian Happ and Trey Mancini
  4. He is vastly overrated. A corner outfielder who's best years will probably be .800 ops or less, doesn't supply a ton of power. He's the worst contract on the team currently
  5. I hope so. Before I even got the chance to read this today, they blew another one lol. I think they'll be fine later in the year, but it'll probably take a trade, a call-up, + a guy like Alzolay getting right
  6. It's just frustrating when they could have the best record in the NL possibly with a better pen
  7. That's true. I expect it'll get better once they get fully healthy, and they can start moving some guys into the pen, like Brown or Hendricks or whatever. Won't hurt to get Smyly back either and Merryweather.
  8. I disagree, they blew an 8 run lead against San Diego and they blew a save against the 8-24 Marlins, not to mention all the other debacles between then and now. This is the worst bullpen in MLB, which makes them the worst bullpen in America
  9. What is the logic of taking out a DEALING southpaw who is at ~85 pitches, a bunch of lefties coming up in the 8th, and an already terrible/depleted bullpen? I don't usually question King Counsell and glad it worked out (so far), but it's odd?
  10. It'll suck watching Neris come out in the 9th in a 1-0 game
  11. lol they are so eager to swing at everything that they won't even let Nico take the free base
  12. He wasn't good last year either.. he's just not a good major league hitter at this point in his career. He shouldn't be handed 4 ABs a game just because he's a lefty
  13. I never want to watch Matt Mervis play baseball again.. a DH with a .240 ops LMAO
  14. They need to do something about 1st base defense.. maybe Belli mans that spot vs LHH when he's back and Wisdom moves to DH? I'm fine with Tauchman in CF vs lefties, he seems to have earned it at this point
  15. Is Ian Happ getting paid 20m a year to sport a .672 OPS? What a sweet life
  16. Would suck to lose what looks like a bullpen day for the Red Sox
