Yusei Kikuchi is a pretty solid upgrade and realistic, if the Cubs are willing to absorb the contract.
-
UGH he hit that right on the screws. Lefty on lefty too
-
That's why you keep the kid at 3rd and let him figure it out. I swear we forget sometimes that this is a top #30 prospect in baseball
-
Justin Turner kind of looks like that wildling from game of thrones
-
When the Cubs stroll into Detroit in a few weeks, it could be a battle of the 2 best teams in baseball, record wise. Hopefully they can take all 3 vs. the Rockies.

I think it's safe to say that PCA is better than anything we had in the 2016 era. Yes he probably won't win the MVP this year with Ohtani and Tatis lurking in the NL, like Bryant did in '16, but PCA's defense and base running put him in a different stratosphere. This is unchartered territory. He's essentially a young Bryce Harper that can also steal 50 bags lol
-
Yeah I'm going to have a PCA jersey or tee by tomorrow
-
Merryweather is dog trash. Just DFA him and make another trade
-
Very satisfying win. It seems like they are stretching out Horton bit by bit, what a weapon that will be down the stretch. Palencia deserves a lot of credit, even despite that blown save yesterday he's probably been a top 5 reliever in the sport over the last ~5 weeks. He's figured something out
-
A few more good ABs and the game can be won here
-
The whole game would have been different if Ballesteros touched home plate on that slide. Seemed like that would come back to haunt them after it happened. Careless baseball from a rookie who is 100 lbs overweight
-
They had Amaya out by like 60 feet lmao. Such a bad team
-
LMAO MIGGY

Ballesteros has big bones

I like Ben's potential but I don't understand how a guy his size is such a soft tosser. He's like 6 ft 7 and throws as hard as Marcus Stroman. You'd think his fastball would be easy cheese at 98+, not to mention some sort of an advantage from his extension/length in pitch delivery
-
That Schultz kid they have will be insane in a few years. Pride of Naperville. I don't hate the White Sox as much as I hate the people that are associated with that organization. Jerry Reinsdorf is the worst owner in baseball and a POS..
-
Reminder that this Sox team recently beat the Reds twice lol

Nico

Welcome to the show

Great team win today

I saw stats in the PCA appreciation thread about how much better PCA has been since July of last year, almost like he flipped a switch overnight. I have to imagine there are similar stats for Amaya because he just looks like a different player since then. Since the all star break last year, he's been an above average catcher on both offense and defense. And leading up to the all star break last year, he was one of the worst catchers in baseball. The player development has been awesome with Amaya, Busch, PCA and even Seiya
-
Palencia shoutout. Seems like 4 or 5 outings in a row where he's come in and delivered. Not sure how sustainable it'll be given his previous struggles with consistency, but he has the stuff to make it at this level. Hopefully we are starting to see it.

Shota is a stud. Absolute ace

I went to the game last night, best seats I've ever had. 4 rows behind Cubs dugout. Heckled RIcketts when he walked past right after the game ended. Matthew Boyd, one of the nicest players I've ever interacted with. When I yelled out his name he turned around and chatted with me for a few seconds and said he'd throw me a ball if there was an opportunity. PCA's speed is insane to watch live, he's probably faster than Tyreke Hill
