  1. Happ must have like a 10 wRC+ against lefties since May or something. Oh wait, he does.
  2. We’ve seen this horsefeathers before. Hopefully we’re not watching a rerun of May.
  3. Nice. Consecutive games with 3 clean innings to start the game for Cubs pitchers (probably batters too).
  4. I’d be disappointed if Holmes wasn’t the guy with his track record and the fact that we gave up Rojas for him.
  5. He only throws 2 pitches so of course no one is fooled after going through the order multiple times. He Ben brown from last year with better command.
  6. I think he’d end up like Berkman, Edmonds and Lofton. He has the war but was never considered the greatest of his era and doesn’t have some milestone like 3K hits or 500 home runs, although that probably doesn’t matter as much because of the era he played in.
  7. Yeah pulling fly balls is the most common way to beat it, but once teams have enough spray chart data, a lot of those batted balls that previously missed gloves are hit right into shifts. If you’re making solid contact in every single direction at random, you’ll continue finding gaps. That’s what I’m wondering.
  8. I have nothing to back this up with but he seems to use the entire field, which would make shifting useless and enable him to outperform his xwOBA. Is it just me? The 2016 Cubs don’t win a World Series without their historically deep bench either. A 10th man who’s worth 2+ wins is extremely valuable. I wish he could play 1st base.
  9. Bregman has currently posted 3.2 fWAR after last night. Cubs third baseman from 24-25 had .3 fWAR combined. The addition by subtraction of adding Bregman is understated.
  10. He’s the third best position player in baseball since August 1st of 2024 at 15.3 fWAR, behind only Judge and Witt Jr.
