Whatever plan they had going into the offseason blew up in their face because of how terribly wrong Hoyer was on the market. There is no chance...

If this Cubs strategy isn't smart, how is the FO not dumb? It's not Hoyer/Hawkins job to get Cubs fans excited. That's the PR departments job....

The issue with signing new players next year is that they have largely sat out the last 2 FA periods that also happen to be the best 2 FA periods for...

How much excitement do you think they are actually going to generate when they trade away guys like Happ, Hendricks, Stroman, etc. at the deadline?

Hoerner is unlikely to be at the top. He is not patient enough to be a leadoff hitter. He didnt take a single AB at leadoff last year and only had 49...

Your idea of capable is flawed. His defensive numbers are terrible. He had a -6 DRS and -4 OAA in just 198 innings in CF. That's on par/worse than...

Define "play all 3 positions." Because he certainly cant play CF any better than the worst CFer on the roster.

He's 24. 0 success at AAA. 0 success in MLB. Has no spot on the field. Other prospects are better. There's absolutely 0 reason for a team like the...

Mervis and Davis are probably the only 2 prospects that might see more than a meaningless amount of MLB PAs this season. Velasquez should probably...

They'll be lucky to have 2 of those prospects turn out to be even average.

He got worse as the season went on.

I guess it depends on how you grade the prospects. I would rather have Arraez a good deal more than Lopez, and you have him for 3 years vs the 2...

Even if Mervis was on the OD roster, they have given Ross enough rope to hang himself by playing the veterans because he likes and respects them,...

Minimum 780 MLB players, Swanson has the 27th highest contract. Not sure average sits at that end of the bell curve.

Theo was like a sugar rush. Went from dead, to downing a fist full of pixy stix, then crashing and burning. But damn if I wouldn't take another dose...

$80M in LT spent on Swanson, Taillon, Bellinger, Smyly, Mancini, Barnhart, and Hosmer. Thats some seriously intelligent spending. That's about as...

I doubt the Cubs are leaving Chicago, tbh.

The Cubs are like 150k behind the Rangers in LT. The Cubs have just built a **** roster with that money and its only going to be the roster for...

It says to me social media controls too much of our daily lives. An asset that team valued at $34M a year is all of a sudden worth nothing based...

Unless they are shooting for the moon in a Tatis trade, I can't really think of a player off the top of my head that I would put Mervis in a package...
