We are not accepting transfers. In fact, we have too many people as it is. Downsizing soon.

Not that easy pal. Start your first thread trolling dipshit Cub fans and we'll go from there

I'd edit the post but I can't risk Darkside coming back.

It's really really early, but moncada looks like a top prospect, RODON STUD WORLD SERIES for a couple'a starts, then you've had quality from guys like Ivan Nova and Rodrigo Lopez and it doesn't seem to be too worry some that palka is 0/17 or 0/18 or something to start the season...

And oh yeah, Dylan Cease is down there doing his thing and able to supplement the rotation at some point over the next year or two. If you get this first week Moncada all season long and Eloy does what Eloy's expected to do around solid little lineups + rotations you might be able to sniff around a very very mediocre at best AL central this year... even without Machado!

Meanwhile across town you've got an old-ass rotation anchored by the only pitcher your GM ever got right (like ~15yrs ago... Or did Theo draft Hendricks too?) and already your top 4 bullpen guys have all individually shit the bed and cost you a game if they weren't injured. That bodes well for a rotation where the top 3 starters' ages combine to be 100+

I think Santana is first man up before Cease.

I think so too. I think you are going to get the same path as Kopech, hopefully without the tommy john.

When Santana came back last year he was bringing the butt fastball at 89 MPH. I saw a twitter update on March 25 that he’s topping out at 91 MPH. He’s effective when he’s between 93-94 MPH, and even then, we’re only talking 7K/9IP.
