Is he still number 1 in RBIs?
-
That’s why I prefaced my statement. 95 wins was the second best record in the NL that year too. Don’t know how that doesn’t count.
-
Cubs catchers have combined for 26 home runs. If they reach 30 it’ll be the second time since 2016 from the combined efforts of Contreras/Miggy/Ross, albeit Contreras hit a couple in his starts in left field.
-
They’ll probably start him vs pitchers he matches up well against. Much like Shaw. Is he that raw where he’s a liability with too many at bats?
-
03-04, 07-09, 15-20, and now 23-25. Now 4X in 22+ seasons including 15 winning seasons since 2001 and potentially 6 seasons of over 90 wins since 08.

Say what you want about Tom but this is the mostly competently ran organization not only in Chicago but really in the history of the Cubs, at least post integration.

Any word on Tucker yet?

Cubs (N/A) vs Day Off: 9/4/25

How do you figure? Are you saying that with the assumption that the bats will wake up? -

I’d like to know Suzukis splits on sliders and sweepers during the second half too. -

Just a joke. -

All I know is Dusty Baker never would’ve pulled Horton after 5 no hit innings. -
They’re 45-32 vs teams vs above 500 teams while the Cubs are 37-40.
-
I wonder CC will end up trying out Civale as a 2 inning guy. He’s obviously content with a wild card spot and will keep his quality arms fresh at the expense of wins but I’m sick of the Ben brown experiment.
-
A lockdown pen arm is what they needed. I don’t think any of the available starting pitchers moved the needle enough to justify the cost, especially with the emergence of Horton, Duran costed Philly a 49th ranked pitching prospect in the top 100 and their 7th ranked prospect. You can brainstorm an equivalent cubs package. Too late.
-
For sure. Since last updated yesterday, Fangraphs has the Padres at 3.9% odds of winning the World Series trailing the Cubs at 4.5%, 12th and 11th highest odds for what it’s worth.
-
It’s a tune up game for Brad elder. A confidence booster for him and the 3+ starting pitchers they face every week with a 5+ ERA over the last month.
-
I admire your optimism
-
Stepping on a teams throat and putting a crooked number on the board going for a sweep is a waste of time. Just score 1-3 runs and hope the pitchers do the rest.
-
I don’t care what the overall playoff picture is, this is a pathetic horsefeathers loss.
-
If home plate was the strike zone it’d be a full count. Nice work Ben.
-
Tip of the cap to Brad Elder. One of the toughest pitchers to square up when he’s on his game.
-
Is there’s a game 3, is Horton your starter or will the limited pitch count still be in effect and it’s Taillons spot? He’s earned it.
-
Castro was a Twin the last time Seiya did anything.
-
Intuitively it makes sense so long as the stat isn’t exclusively weighting PA outcomes solely in what’s in a hitters control, excluding BABIP luck. It makes a negligible difference with even small sample sizes. just curious.
-
For wOBA, why are hit by pitches assigned a higher linear weight that BBs? Even if it has a slightly higher correlation with run creation you’re still assessing an individual players performance and a HBP is entirely luck based unlike a walk.
