    Cubs are currently 10-10 on the year against teams 19+ games under 500.
  2. Geographyhater8888
    Busch must be exhausted.
  3. Geographyhater8888
    Yeah them. Although none of their injured players were front line talents besides maybe Nick Collins. Edit: Collins was healthy.
  4. Geographyhater8888
    They had no one who could take reps out in center field besides Dean until they traded for Taylor. He’s getting rest days that weren’t previously an option. I hope anyways.
  5. Geographyhater8888
    They’re easy to re-aggregate. I haven’t heard any updates but the drop off from Burden to whoever wins the WR3 tryout is massive.
  6. Geographyhater8888
    Found it. Thanks. Happ had a 102 through the end of April and since May he’s posted a 10 wRC+ versus lefties. Wow.
  7. Geographyhater8888
    Where can you sort platoon splits by month?
  8. Geographyhater8888
    He had a 105 wRC+ a year ago from today. It’s currently at 104. Unless the dip in xWOBA and K% is something noteworthy then it’s likely his bat will become magic again.
  9. Geographyhater8888
    Happ had a 105 wRC+ a year ago from today. He’s currently at 104. His K% is up and his xWOBA is significantly down FWIW but I’m sure someone has an explanation for that. History says it won’t be a blimp.
  10. Geographyhater8888
    I hope Burden is okay.
  11. Geographyhater8888
    Cubs are 10-10 versus teams 20+ games under 500 and 21-10 versus NL teams above 500.
  12. Geographyhater8888
    Most normal loss of the second half. Al least the bullpen is rested and Happ might’ve woken up.
  13. Geographyhater8888
    Collin Rea would pitch 7 innings with 1 earned run against this lineup.
  14. Geographyhater8888
    Kelly. Accidental L.
  15. Geographyhater8888
    I’ll miss Carlson next year. He’s been a solid pickup.
  16. Geographyhater8888
    What bitch slap of a game.
  17. Geographyhater8888
    How long before it’s okay to start worrying about Happ?
  18. Geographyhater8888
    Jed is a coward who’s afraid to take risks. He takes a calculated risk and it’s an overpay. That’s how risks work, and the Cubs are better positioned to make a deep run in October by a country mile compared to a week ago. I don’t understand how anyone can criticize Jed for how he handled the deadline. I would’ve liked to trade Jonathon Long and Kevin Alcantara for Clay Holmes instead of Rojas myself, but unfortunately someone would’ve beaten that offer.
  19. Geographyhater8888
    I fast forwarded to July 4th to cut out that 17-1 loss. Since then the starting pitching has posted a 2.82 ERA, a 4.22 xERA, 4.11 xFIP with an 83% LOB rate. This is fools gold. Holmes and Gausman are gargantuan upgrades over Rea, Peterson and Assad. They just are. I even cut out Taillon to make it more relevant. Those are solid numbers, but this a small and flattering sample size. Peterson shutting down injured/slumping offenses in favorable weather conditions, behind the best defense in baseball by a landslide doesn’t mean the cubs weren’t in desperate need of upgrades.
  20. Geographyhater8888
    I was being complimentary.
  21. Geographyhater8888
    Gausman was competent.
  22. Geographyhater8888
    It’s unacceptable just how bad Happ has been for the last month+.
  23. Geographyhater8888
    The F vote was definitely @Patrick88 .
  24. Geographyhater8888
    For the entire season he has a 5.08 and he’s at .2, regardless of what it is over his last 8 starts. I wonder why that is while Assad is at zero with a sub 5.
  25. Geographyhater8888
    Can someone explain to me why Edward Cabrera has a positive war with a 5.08 FIP? He’s below league average in infield fly ball%.
