Statistically, Willson Cohn-Tre-as is the 2nd best catcher in baseball now, behind Posey.

Cotts was "almost" an All Star in MANY season!

Yes.

I liked Contreras from the start.

I forgot...you don't pay attention to baseball talk outside of your bubble. My bad.

EDIT: In the middle of June, Edwards had a 1.07 ERA and a BAA of .099.

That will get you in the All-Star game.

Im not defending him or his 2017. Just saying he played a role in the Greatest Game Ever played.

I understand. But let's stop living in the past.

CJ Edwards was not the caddie for Francis Ouimet.

Not all the time.

I pay attention enough to know that CJ Edwards was NOT on the All Star team. Nice try though.

Never said he made it. Almost an 2017 All-Star.He did not have a strong finish to June, and has been iffy since that 1.07 ERA.

Michael Kopech will be lucky to have the career CJ Edwards has had.

I don't know how this matters, but Buster Olney was really shitting all over Willson today. First the Venezuelan arm band is apparently an issue and now he's going off about how players and executives are increasingly complaining about the way he acts / plays the game. Olney can suck a douche. I swear to god, ESPN just wants to shit over anything good that happens to Chicago teams.
