The rational thing to do is root for Brewers instead of the Reds because it helps the Cubs playoff picture, but I choose not to. horsefeathers Milwaukee.
No demons have been exorcised since 2016. We had the 2018 power outage, 2019 9 game losing streak, 2020 and 23, whatever you want to make of that… No cure. We aren’t the Redsox. It’s not like we have the Bears or any other team to lift our spirits exactly either.
I’m being sarcastic. But I’ve seen this movie so many times. Until Tucker gets out of his funk this is a carbon copy of the 2023 team with a struggling rookie PCA on top of it. As a Cubs fan, everything will be OK isn’t a frame a mind I’ll ever have.
In 2016 we had confidence this team would go all the way. in 2007 we had hope, not confident but hey, the cardinals did it last year with 83 wins. Right now the tone is trending closer to the 2007 team. That’s way more than 2%.
Lol I knew they’d be closer in the standings to the Reds than the Brewers 2 weeks ago. This team never fails to fail me. Throw those playoff odds in the garbage, they don’t apply to the Cubs.
Blue jays $500 million man has the go ahead 2 run home run tonight and the go ahead run double on Monday, our alleged $500 million slugger has 2 XBHs all horsefeathers month.
That’s the only way this makes sense. It’s uncharacteristic of the Cubs to bring up a top prospect just to see as much action as a bullpen catcher like Berti. Especially when he doesn’t offer the position flexibility or pinch running ability of Brujan or Berti.
Was looking for you. It’s better to have his upside on the bench than a useless Lopez, does this mean they’ll play musical chairs with the outfield a couple times a week to give some of the everyday bags a rest? It’s unfortunate our best farm talent are all left handed hitting outfielders/DH when we need right handed platoon bats.
i was expecting Mo to get the call up but not at all surprised. Cassie’s ability to play in the outfield I guess gives him in the edge on a team that needs life injected into a badly slumping outfield. Why not. Lopez is worthless.
If the Cubs valued versatility then what purpose does keeping 3 catches serve? Seems odd they DFAd Berti unless it’s insurance for Amaya’s recent injury history.
Who will Cassie replace and how often will he be in the startylineup?
