Jed's the dude at the bar trying to find a girl at 2 am when the lights come on. It’s just his style.

So, what does the framework for Sfg receive Hoerner Chc receive Ketel Marte AZ receives prospects from both?

The Pasta Pen? Throw it all against the wall and see what sticks, eventually.

Suckers! Look at all Jed’s Participation Trophies! You don’t get those by winning bids on players you like!

0% it’s Jed and belief Tatis can play 3b. 100% I hope this is true.

I miss the Winter Meetings of the Trader Jim days.

Off-setting cost. Shrugs. I didn’t say it was a good idea.

Signing Bregman, doesn’t preclude Shaw is gone, could be Nico with Shaw sliding to 2b, saving the large market team however much the difference is between Nico and Bregman this season

Ah, American Media’s slogan.

I still wonder what they do with Alcantara, I never see him mentioned with Cassie for the plans next year, even though he’d a RHH that can play CF and I don’t believe has options left.

Ohhh, the Cubs are dumpster diving? So novel!

Same as it ever was; money. Say something in the bargaining agreement is 'payment for time not played?’ due to the lockout? OR the luxury tax does get lower, or become a harder cap? I don’t know how it does, but I bet they act/spend like it will. I don’t have any other facts to point at beyond how they, Ricketts and Hoyer, have done business post-pandemic. Or, the lack of business they have done. If they were going to spend money, it would have been in the Tucker year. They didn’t. They went cheap in FA, then went cheap at the deadline, keeping all that prospect capital. Who are the least expensive employees? (Who released Schwarber!?) Unfortunately, from what I see, the Cubs are not about winning as much as generating the greatest profit. They are a business, not a team. A spectacle that inhabits Wrigleyville and helps drive their surrounding properties. I’m negative as horse-feathering-feathers about ownership and its willingness to attempt to win, or merely stay competitive. I have no idea how it affects their bottom line, Rcal, but Tom Combover likes the clean books, like he likes to use tongue when he kisses ass, or so I’ve heard. So whether it does or not, Tom will make an excuse about ‘uncertainty’ or some feathered horsiness. Just my feeling. Oh, also, I hope they trade Shaw. (Gonna just keep throwing that out there. C’mon universe!)

I see them dropping payroll as low as they can before the lockout. The Tucker year was the year to spend, and they didn't, in prospects or $$. Happ and Nico expire, doesn't Seiya as well? Leaving what, Dansby and no one on payroll. Seems by design.

I see you love having a 'simple dinner.'

I have blocked out those Killian starts where he painted black with 98 and looked like a monster before his injury. But, I hope Long is a thing.

Has anyone in recent memory become a thing and stuck after the AFL (Mervis and Canario crushed and are still AAAA players years later, that’s all I’m coming up with off the top.)

Anyone else finding themselves yelling ‘Full F*CKING Busch!’ quite often this post-season?

Yeah man. You Christians need Christ more than anyone. Talk about ‘false morality’ I’m sure after you typed this up, you got down on your knees to pray to your white God for Junkyard Walrus? Yeah? Folded your hands up and said, “White Jesus, this poster on the internet…" Oh, no? You didn’t? All preach, no practice. Sooo surprising. What a disingenuous way to piss away your existence.

Showing you a mirror isn’t murderous rage, that’s just you playing victim, which you all are so good at. This all started with you saying you’re thankful our 3b left to go the funeral of a racist podcaster? DDL, that’s weird thing as a Cubs fan right? (And of course I know you, I’ve. known you all my life. Go forgive yourself in traffic.)

I don’t forgive you. Take your fake piety and shove it up your bloody Christofascist god-hole. You can’t forgive yourself for the same horsefeathers you persist in doing. That’s just hypocrisy. You are not forgiven. I do not forgive you or any of your fake ‘Christians' who only preach and never practice.

Yeah, horsefeathers Shaw. Skipping out, as a rookie, in September on the cusp of the playoffs they are backing into because his favorite racist podcaster died? So horsefeathers what, watch it on TV you profound cockwomble horsefeathers Shaw. Inexcusable behavior, especially for a rookie. (Insert Cam Smith mumbling)

Just throwing out his old team has won the division every year since he left.

LaTroy Hawkins lost a game on a pickoff attempt to 1b.

I really thought The Guz was gonna be something. Same with Angel Pagan (Still the coolest name, The Angel Pagan? C’mon!)

It'd be nice to see him finish strong.
