    What was he hit expectancy of the ball PCA just caught? WOW!
  2. Rcal10
    How was that a catch? What is the point of going to the video if they can’t get it right?
  3. Rcal10
    Hate that they let him get off the hook in that inning. I think he is going to be tough the rest of the way. Hopefully Boyd can match him.
  4. Rcal10
    Yes it did.
  5. Rcal10
    The thing is, if you do know you will sign Tucker at all cost you can do whatever you want with the farm bats. Give up as many as your want. They are covered for the next several years at the major league level. That is why I agree with you on trading whatever is needed and signing Tucker.

    I don’t see Horton or Shaw in any deal. I said Wiggins originally, but Brown is ok too. One of those pitchers plus any AAA bat and then maybe another choice of any A+ or lower player.
  7. Rcal10
    I know the Cubs have the resources. So they can get it done if the Nats are open to it. And I sure hope you are right and they are. Just for discussion sake, does Wiggins, Christian Hernandez and any other bat the Nats want from the system get it done and would you do it? Maybe a small 4th piece is added.

    From what I read, he will also miss the first 2 months of next year.
  9. Rcal10
    Doesn’t really change the timeline, or does it?
  10. Rcal10
    I can’t really relate. I haven’t had a bad idea yet…..😬🤷
  11. Rcal10
    No worries. Not everything posted ages well.
  12. Rcal10
    I don’t know. I think it is wishful thinking to assume Gore can be had. They have some good young players. Why not keep him too? I mean, I guess anything is possible, but I have to think they would have to be overwhelmed with a deal to trade him.
  13. Rcal10
    👍 fair enough. I agree all the guys need a day or two for rest.
  14. Rcal10
    If he wants $500M he is going to have to be better than that. Otherwise I don’t blame the Cubs for letting him walk. BTW, for those who are slow to sarcasm, this is sarcasm. Cubs need to sign this guy, PERIOD.
  15. Rcal10
    Rockies swept the Marlins in Miami. Now that is really bad.
  16. Rcal10
    Yep, Tucker definitely needs a reset. I am tired of his .918 OPS and 163 OPS+. Maybe when he comes back he can improve.
  17. Rcal10
    I was really hoping the brewers went on a losing streak. I would have loved to get Peralta. He would cost a lot, but I think he would have been the most prefect guy the Cubs could get.
  18. Rcal10
    Maybe Gallen? Kelly, as well as Alcantara.
  19. Rcal10
    I agree. I have heard his name before and I just don’t see why the Nats would trade him.
  20. Rcal10
    Assuming the Reds don’t get back in contention, maybe Nick Martinez becomes a possibility. He wouldn’t be a TOR starter, but he wouldn’t be a bad pick up. He is also a FA after this season.
  21. Rcal10
    I don’t think so.
  22. Rcal10
    Cubs may be facing Gore, which could be tough. But the Nats are facing Boyd, which will be tough for them. No reason the Cubs can’t win this one.
  23. Rcal10
    This is my feelings as well. I am not really worried about Happ. If anything I am kind of excited to know they are playing this well and they still have a Happ hot streak. I believe before his injury he was coming on. I think the last 2 days before he finally sat he didn’t do much, but I also think he was trying to play through something them. But the week to 10 days prior to that, he was beating up. I expect an extended hit streak from Happ is coming soon. Maybe the homestand or before then. IMO, he will be fine.
  24. Rcal10
    He was playing the infield back. So that means forget about PCA. Get the out. His alignment should have told the 3rd baseman all he needed to know.
  25. Rcal10
    But I think that is how they determine if the runs are earned. I know everything is different. I get that. But for era sake they just take what happens after. So with the same outcomes Horton gives up 1 earned run today.
