  1. I’d imagine it’d be similar to 04 Red Sox if you replaced the bats of big papi and Manny with Morel and Amaya.
  2. I don’t know if it’s more amazing that our catchers have a combined .465 OPS batting 176 or the fact the Whitesox have even worse numbers across the board.
  3. That’s the thing. Jamo, Happ, Suzuki, Cody, forget Swansons immovable contract are clogging the payroll. All these guys are a solid deadline addition on a World Series contender and nothing more. Imagine the 04 Red Sox minus Big papi and Manny. Mueller Millar Nixon and Damon are nice complimentary players. Jed trying to build around this caliber of players is a one of a kind team building experiment.
  4. I can’t remember the last time they hit a 3 run homer this season before Monday.
  5. Is this the inning where they score their token runs?
  6. Screw OPS and strike out pitchers. Fill your rotation and pen full of sinker ballers with solid defenders up the middle. That’s the winning ticket. Phillies have no clue what they’re doing.
  7. Moving dansby down to 7th really lit a fire under his a**. Much needed wake-up call.
  8. Amaya certainly defeats the purpose of the universal DH.
  9. They looked the part in April. They’re the most expensive 88 win ceiling team of all time but how do you make sense of this team wide offensive face plant?
  10. Not surprising. Braves are much smarter organization but if that’s the second highest offer Jed should be fired on the spot for that alone. It’s an overpay but that’s so ridiculous there had to have been a higher offer unless I’m giving Jed too much credit.
  11. Before posting a 5.5 WAR in 2022 his career high was 2.8. I’m curious what the second highest bidder was offering.
  12. 2 grand slams in the same series. When was the last time the cubs even hit a 3 run homer?
  13. If they could put the ball over the fence with runners on more than once every other week BABIP play luck they wouldn’t be 7 games under.
  14. Correas a bad fit for Jed’s Cubs. Too elite. Discount Dansby and Jed’s preference for defensive runs saved in place of OPS was the clincher.
  15. Looks like they ran out of that Justin Steele pixie dust.
  16. Anyone know the 2nd highest bidder in the Dansby sweepstakes and how much was offered?
  17. I just read a stat where Bellinger Morel Seiya Swanson Happ and Nico are a combined 351 points below their career OPS this season.
  18. 2004 bullpen+2006 offense minus the slug swapping bases empty singles with walks=2024 Cubs.
  19. Watching then reminds of the spring training scene in the movie major league.
  20. Our kryptonite headed my into the off season was a lack of reliable pen arms. What does Jed do to adress it? Sign Neris and manager who can better manage a pen with no reliable arms. The position players were shaky enough as is but no one could’ve foreseen this offense being so bad with RISP regardless of the $ pissed away on Dodgers and Yankees role players.
  21. It’s a comedy act at this point. The outcomes are so predictable. Inability to pile on runs, wasting a gem from our starting pitching, and coughing up 2+ run leads in the 9th. All the ingredients for a jersey mike sub sandwich.
