Before the rooftop bleachers they had trees.

Just rewatched G7 of the 2016 WS

Still get chills, anger, joy, and chills!

The greatest game ever played was on a Wednesday in Cleveland!

Lots of reports this evening Cubs in agreement with Shota.

I usually wear my shirt with this that says this on most Wednesdays

On paper this deal for Shota seems like a bargain at less than $15M per year (prior to potential option being picked up). Obviously hard to project but he had similar numbers to Senga in Japan and that seems to be working out well for the Mets after one year.

Hoping they can figure out a compromise to bring back Belli and work Hoskins into the fold. I wouldn't be opposed to Chapman either but don't want to overpay there.

Wasn't trying to call you out or anything. The good news is that metastatic prostate cancer has a better prognosis than metastatic colon cancer which was why I double-checked the news bubble I had seen before your post. But it's still metastatic disease and a tough diagnosis.

I totally agree....my sorry was for giving bad information....definitely better than colon cancer but still sucks

Hoskins signing with the Brew Crew. Will see if the Cubs finally go after Belli.

If they could get him and Chapman (prefer higher annual dollars, shorter commitment) on relatively modest deals and get a reliable RP, that would seem like a productive offseason.

Just FYI, this morning the Rangers just released additional tickets for opening weekend....grab'em at face value while you can

Alzolay needs to be optioned. Fourth blown save this season. Horrendous.

Problem is they didn't address their bullpen at all this offseason in any impactful way. Do you really want Mark Leiter Jr closing? Until Merryweather gets healthy, the bullpen is not good.

I wouldn't mind them giving some opportunities for Ben Brown to close or finish games off.

Today makes five blown saves. He's terrible.

They got to make a move sooner than later.

BRUTAL stretch of baseball. Just about everyone on offense has been up against a wall lately. And when they do score a few runs, the bullpen implodes.

very hard to watch. I just focus on aggie baseball for now and by the time they are done in a few weeks, hopefully the cubs find a few bullpen arms.

Cardinals wearing blue socks at Wrigley should be a shootable offense

Well, disappointing first half to say the least. Will be interesting to see how they approach the deadline without many players that are all that appealing to sell off.

On another note - any of you lurking around here actually living in Chicago? If so, might appreciate someone to ask to questions regarding an upcoming trip. TIA!

Took the FSU 3Bman with 1st round pick

Wasn't he kinda a high ceiling project?

2 years of college ball, but massive improvements. I think he batted .387 and an athlete with good potential. Not Braden that the red sox got 2 picks earlier. Was hoping he would drop another 2.

Miss the constant talk of cubs but I lost interest myself. This team lately is finally playing well.
