    EIGHT straight outs recorded via the K going back to yesterday's game. Pathetic.
  2. PackLandVA
    Keep batting Buschy at leadoff. Been so successful for 20 games or so.
  3. PackLandVA
    Counsell insists on the L/R/L/R/L at the top and middle of the batting order.
  4. PackLandVA
    Last 6 outs were strikeouts.

    Hopefully he didn't bruise a finger.

    He's not facing the Cubs "hot mess" offense.

    Scherzer is gonna pitch a "Maddux", isn't he?
  10. PackLandVA
    Wasn't it not long before the ASB that several regular posters were b!itching about Cade?
  11. PackLandVA
    Anyone rationalize why Counsell keeps having Michael Busch lead off versus righthanded pitching? Nothing compelling about the .188 average and .263 OBP in the 1 spot.
  12. PackLandVA
    Really tired of Pete throwing his helmet and bat.

    Happ, Suzuki, Busch, Kelly, PCA, and Castro are a combined 2 for 33 with 2 RBI against Abbott in their careers (small sample size).

    **Obvious Statement Alert** The Cubs will almost certainly make the playoffs But if the can’t hit/score runs when the wind is blowing in, they have no shot in October.

    I am happy Castro is starting for Swanson instead of Shaw. Go figure.

    I believe it's been mentioned in other threads, but Jed "Value" Hoyer is probably waiting for the off season to trade some of the minor leaguers. The price of players should come down, probaby considerably. It doesn't help for this season's playoff push, but it sets them up to be buyers over the winter. And I agree that Tucker will be a Cub for 2 1/2 more months.

    Wasn't being critical, and I know you posted well before the trade. Just pointing out that of those listed, Armstrong was traded (since he's really not a well-known prospect at this point).
  18. PackLandVA
    Sent to the Twins in trade for Castro.
  19. PackLandVA
    Cramping in his right hip.

    I don't think the Cubs make a big splash (unfortunately). I think they will reinforce the rotation with the thought that Taillon and Assad should be back soon. This will also help the bullpen by bumping Brown and maybe even Horton. And I think the way Shaw has been hitting since the ASB means they don't view 3B as a black hole offensively.

    Chicago's first "#23". I have his bat from a Spring Training game in 1984 (back when he used a black bat). His 1984 season was a preview of things to come in his career. May he rest in peace.

    Alex Cohen should not be in a MLB broadcast booth. Unless he's serving drinks or something.
  24. PackLandVA
    So there's a reason Bowden isn't a GM anymore?
  25. PackLandVA
    If available, does Dean Kremer move the needle for anyone. He's been pretty solid since the start of May.
