Cubs win Game 1. Game 3 should be high scoring.

Oh my God they could pull a guy out of the stands and he'd take a better swing than the one Billy Hamilton just took. That was awful. :lol:

Shark pitching like Shark of old. Should have no problem hitting 100 pitches in the 5th inning.

Hamilton should be bunting 70% of the time.

The Cubs look worse than they have ever been. Just brutal.

*Can't bring up prized rookies so you can keep them an extra year down the line in 7 years?

*Refusing to add any kind of FA hitting in offseason.

* They need to cut guys just to shake things up. Start with Sweeney & Kalish & Baker.

* Stop flipping pieces from the pitching staff that can actually help you in the next couple of years:
Samarjda,Wood,Hammel & maybe Arrieta form a nice nucleus.

If the price is right. He is chewing up a career on a terrible team. IF the Cubs can get a couple of youngsters (preferably pitchers) for him,that's fine but hold the rest of the staff. This merry-go-round has to stop.

Agree, this is the part of the plan I have been ready to say, it's the end of guys not fitting in, yet, they are here!

Plus, we need some major league players to mix with the kids coming up. Not AAA players trying out.

This aspect of how Rizzo was deemed a leader of a team with nothing, is just something that added pressure to the guy.

You can tell a kid he is the face of a franchise all day, but he has ZERo idea what that entails, especially at Wrigley. Fans, media, right on top of you all the time. It's real pressure that can't be properly quantified until you do it.
