Leave it to Hayden to horsefeathers everything up

Nice W
-
I was wrong about Mastro. Guy is a valuable utility piece to have
-
The Professor handing out lessons today

If the Cubs win tomorrow then horsefeathers it, I'm getting excited again
-
Really nice win, if they somehow pull off a sweep in Baltimore it could change everything
-
It's just so hard for me to believe that he can't grow/become a good OFer when I watch guys like Schwarber, Alvarez, Castellanos lumber around out there. Even Ian Happ, nobody knew he'd become a Gold Glover until they just let him play out there everyday..
-
What I really wish for, if we could do a do-over, is them keeping Nico at SS, Morel at 2b, and then not signing Swanson and pocketing nearly 200$ million to go get Pete Alonso this off-season. And Busch is the guy that kind of moves around between 2nd base, 1st, maybe even a spot OF day
-
IMO, the Cubs have done a disservice by trying to move him around all over in 2023 like he's Kris Bryant or something. And then forcing him to learn an even new position in 2024 with like what, 5 weeks of notice before the season started? Some players are better off just playing 1 position. Funnily enough, Ian Happ, great example. An OK 2nd baseman but a great defensive left fielder once they left him alone there. For Morel, IMO, it's 2nd base or LF where I could see him being a good defensive player
-
That's because he was a DH mostly last year while Happ gets play LF, arguably the easiest position in baseball to play. And Morel is clearly not a 3rd baseman, yet they are choosing to ruin his career by forcing him there. Let Morel play 150+ games in LF and then compare their WARs. Just my opinion. Ian Happ is who he is. Morel actually has real potential. Edit and I don't hate Ian at all, just very sensitive to Morel criticism. I seem to be the only one here that remembers what he did for this team last season
-
Nice series win before they get slaughtered in Baltimore
-
when did I say they don't count lol? Thank god they do otherwise he'd be in AAA
-
go to baseball reference and check out his stats vs those 2 teams vs the rest of the league.. pretty straightforward, and pretty glaring even in the midst of the best stretch of his career, he won't come close to the .500+ slugging that Morel did last year or the 26 home runs., or the .820 ops. mic drop
-
Probably every single team, since he's less than a year removed from nearly 30 home runs as a 24 year old The Morel hate is so funny, and so tiring. You know who's a bum? Ian Happ. I have 5 years of evidence that he's an overpaid overrated player that only shows up against the Reds and Pirates
-
It really sucks that the Cubs haven't positioned themselves to be buyers this year because there are so many intruiging names that could be traded. Guerrero/Bichette, Crochet/Robert, Arozarena, Jazz Chisolm. All fairly young and could be difference makers for years to come..
-
Counsell finally finds out that if you keep PCA and Amaya on the bench all game long, you may actually have a chance to win
-
I'm talking about their profiles as Hitters. Swanson is so MID. In fact, I think I hate him.
-
Lol that doesn't make him a good player, or make it a good signing, or make Jed above criticism for signing such an abhorrent player. Jason Heyward had better or comparable statistics thru 2 seasons than Dansby Swanson. This is the funniest thing I've read today - "no big deal that we flushed 175 m down the toilet on a terrible player because some other incompetent teams did the same thing!" Spending money for the sake of spending money is how stupid GMs like Jed Hoyer get fired. The Braves signed Orlando Arcia for 5% of what they would have re-signed Dansby Swanson for and he has way better numbers
-
haha
-
I remember I said this is the worst bullpen in America a few months back, nobody believed me.. I wish I wasn't right..
-
It's so Cubs that their best prospect can't hit worth a horsefeathers. Corey Patterson 2.0
-
I don't care how good the Cubs farm system supposedly is, if they end up in last place or 4th with a $230 million payroll, people need to lose their jobs in the front office
-
But I guess that if the Cubs keep sucking *** and Amaya keeps playing like a single A player, the Cubs front office can continue leaking information about Contreras' time here in Chicago, breaking ipads. Such a slimy organization. Funny as hell that their handpicked replacement of him can't even hit above the Mendoza line
-
Amaya is probably one of the 5 worse big league players right now. Every time that punk scrub hits a ball out of the infield it feels like a human accomplishment like going to the moon
-
lol if the Cubs offered that trade, it would be the Mets that say no
