  1. I used to think so a week ago or so. His BA with RISP is more than decent, probably, close to .300.
  2. And, we'd be much happier. Despite the bad offense in the last month or two, the Cubs are top 3 in the league, now. Only .5 game below the Phillies and 2.5 game above the Dodgers.
  3. Great to see Hodge being good Hodge in the last 2 games. His velocity seems to be back.
  4. Happ hit like 4 HRs in the last 7 or 8 games, I think.
  5. There were a lot of trade talks about Nico in off season, too. I didn't want to see him go. The Cubs didn't trade him, so it's all good.😄
  6. I agree. He has the best BA in the team. He's very consistent both offensively and defensively. More than likely, he'll get another gold glove this year. PCA should've been the MVP, if he didn't struggle this long, though.
  7. Yeah, he's been great like 90% of the time. Way better than Rogers.
  8. PCA is pretty good today, too. 2 hits and 2 sac flies.
  9. I really didn't want to see Castro starting today, but I guess I was wrong.
  10. Assad was perfect, until the last two batters. PCA should have caught it, though.
  11. He has. Way better than earlier in the season.
  12. I was just talking about Pete's offense. His defense is always great, anyway. He could win Platinum Glove this year. If he doesn't win at least Gold Glove, I'd be disappointed. And, to be honest, I don't know why Counsell uses Castro so often. Like for the last game, I wanted to see Alcantara over Castro at the center field. But, Castro had an RBI single, and that was the only run, so I shouldn't complain.😄
  13. Yeah, even Seiya who's been struggling for a while, is way better than Pete. Maybe, Castro is better than Pete, too, which is very sad.
  14. Definitely, Mets. They are good only at home, well usually.
  15. You know what? Yes, the Cubs offense has been bad for long time, but if the Brewers are still a game or two below the Cubs, most of us would feel happy enough right now. At the moment, the Cubs is like two games above the Dodgers and four games above the Padres. Only the Phillies would be better than the Cubs, if the Brewers didn't start winning like crazy a month or two ago. Now, the Brewers started losing, but it's most likely too late for the Cubs to catch up.
  16. I somewhat disagree. - The Dodgers are a game or two below .500 after ASB. They just got swept by the Pirates. Pretty pathetic, IMO. That being said, I'm not sure which team is the scariest against the Cubs now. Their bullpen isn't particularly good, either. SPs could be scary with Snell, Yamamoto, Kershaw Glassnow and Ohtani, though. - The Phillies: I agree about Wheeler. They still have good SPs, and they might be the scariest to me. - The Brewers: I agree with you. - The Mets don't play well away games. If the Cubs face the Mets in Chicago (most likley), we would have good chance beating them. If I remember correctly, they don't like lefties, and most likely, Shota and Boyd will start and we also have Thielbar and Pomerantz. I don't want to mention Rogers. Oh, I just did.😄 - The Padres: I'd rather face the Mets in Chicago than the Padres. Yes, SPs are a mess, but they have great bullpen. I don't know when King will come back. Either way, for some reason, the Pares are scarier than the Mets to me.
  17. Wow, I don't even remember when the last time Hodge did no hit, no walk. Seems like his velocity is getting better.
  18. Yeah, Shaw has been impressive defensively, after he came back from Iowa.
  19. Yeah, he is likeable, and I hope he gets better. And, I agree Craig should have used Ben.
