In other news, we’re part of the problem, as we admittedly bought Cubs tickets to take our son to his first game this season.

Good luck Garrett and Red Sox

I would never go that long on a pitching contract

At least the one season of Tucker we get is looking pretty good

You need to if you want to compete for world series titles. Because the top pitchers will go elsewhere if you don't. As us Sox fans have seen unfortunately.

Now this deal. It's risky for Boston with Crochet's short track record of success and health. They're doubling down on their trade, where they gave up a lot. Good luck to them. I hope it works out for the Red Sox and Crochet.

Cubs’re fun again.

Cycle for Carson Kelly. first cycle since Mark Grace 1993.

Even at 11-3 I was worried about the lead.

 

[bwanajamba]

The Cubs simply haven't had a bat near the level of Tucker since KB's headfirst slide. Game-changing talent

 

[Hull2Roenick2Kane]

Steele and the bullpen need to figure it out. Everyone else is clicking on all cylinders right now.

PCA cannot hit.

 

[HeisenBaez]

PCA cannot hit.

Too early.

 

[TLEH]

Too early.

Yeah idk about forever but after 400+ ABs he's really struggled. He'll still be useful regardless.

 

[Deputy McRizzy]

I feel like in all my years of following baseball that guys like PCA that can’t hit after this many ABs just never really figure it out.

 

[bwanajamba]

He was pretty decent down the stretch last year. Not like he has never had any success at the major league level

 

[bwanajamba]

Pressly just does not inspire confidence. Looks totally cooked

 

[HeisenBaez]

Yeah idk about forever but after 400+ ABs he's really struggled. He'll still be useful regardless.

The rule of thumb is that hitters need about 1500 ABs before any decisions can be made. PCA is not even at 500 AB. Like I said, a little early.

With that said, I am concerned about his hit tool. Even if PCA does not hit consistency, his other skills still make him a valuable player.

 

[TLEH]

Woof Pete man.

 

[TLEH]

Perfect double pay ball and Turner cannot catch.

 

[HeisenBaez]

Perfect double pay ball and Turner cannot catch.

Yep. Turner should not be on the field, ever. He needs to be DH only.

And stop blowing four run leads Cubs. Please take Pressly OUT of the closers role.

Please god let Jed convince Ricketts to push for something similar with Tucker

Should be a no brainer. Tucker is a stud.

Great Cubs win.

And man, Houston choked at the end vs Florida.
