    Apart from 2016 and a few good seasons here and there, this is a chronic Cub disease.
  2. Connor McConnor
    JFC-2 hits tonight, The offense seems to have some serious issues afoot.
  3. Connor McConnor
    I am a fan of the dictator! Bad ass.
  4. Connor McConnor
    I agree. I don't get the love. I like the color but the logo looks weak. Some variation of the pinstripe logo would have been better.

    I know pitching was the big focus, but the offense is very good at going completely cold. Pitching won't matter if we are not scoring.
  6. Connor McConnor
    Not scoring with RISP is going to bite us.
  7. Connor McConnor
    I'm glad it's not my 500 Million that I don't have paying Tucker at some point.
  8. Connor McConnor
    We don't need a dictator, we need horsefeathers pitchers!

    This is still less stressful than watching Pressly on the mound with men on base.

    Fred McGriff is available.

    You don't think he can hit another 14 home runs in 2 months? Certainly within reach, and probable given the way his year has gone. His "slump" in July is still better than all of our best hitters. The Cubs need a guy like this to makeup for the Shaw/Happ/Swanson hitting challenges. Far more likely that Suarez continues to have a great year (probably made better by being at Wrigley and in a playoff race) than Shaw or Happ suddenly coming to life in a big way. July Suarez / 10 HR / 18 RBI Tucker / 1 HR / 7 RBI Suzuki / 4 HR / 12 RBI PCA / 6 HR / 15 RBI

    The Cubs are not in the hunt this late very often. Prospects may or may not work out. If you have to overpay a little to get Suarez, do it. 36 Home Runs and 87 RBI year to date. Shaw can give the other infield guys a rest, and still play 3rd a bit down the stretch. This offense can go cold. It has, and it will. We need all the help we can get. If we do make the playoffs and are making a run, who do you want walking to the plate with a few men on and the score tied in the 8th inning? Shaw or Suarez? Get too cute about "prospects" and you will be reading your stats year after year instead of playing and possibly winning in October. 2025 SEASON STAVG

    The article pointed out this angle: "Not only are his incentives and the team's no longer misaligned, but he can now avoid having any negotiating partner try to use his own contract status as leverage against him. If Hoyer (as, based on his personality, we might well imagine he would) would feel unduly guilty about trading a haul of prospects for a high-impact, short-term piece, that internal conflict is now resolved, too"

    Milwaukee has been ridiculous in the last 6 weeks, and we have played well. St. Louis is buried (knock knock). The current standings have very little to do with the Cubs and everything to do with the run the Brewers have had. If they (Brew) continue playing the way they have, they deserve to win the division. That is highly unlikely. We have survived minus 3 of our starters. Let's get some reinforcements and see what happens. I like our chances.
  15. Connor McConnor
    But we signed Counsel away from them? He gets paid tons of money to be great......right? Do we have a better manager?
  16. Connor McConnor
    I assume he can't play first? Too bad, he's got more to offer than Turner and would still be around in case the Catcher posistion became a problem again. I'd take him as a pinch hitter any day over Turner at this point.

    What is the story with the green shirts in the crowd?
  19. Connor McConnor
    Possible horsefeathers show on the horizon. One hit batter will be all it takes.
  20. Connor McConnor
    Crazy. And 2 innings to go.
  21. Connor McConnor
    Holy crap. I love killing the Cardinals. Love it!!
  22. Connor McConnor
    Nice play by Shaw.
  23. Connor McConnor
    I thought we might make it out of June without the *woon.
  24. Connor McConnor
    I'm gonna miss Stanley Cup playoffs and Cubs on at the same time. It's be a fun few months.
  25. Connor McConnor
    Do not toy with the June Swoon, Cubs. Don't do it.
