"Tres Barrera" is Spanish for "Koyie Hill."

Just heard about this on the radio. Cardinals manager was bending over backwards to say this had nothing to do with their pitchers struggles :lol:

Which if any of the Cubs World Series Players should they have kept? Only Schwarber and Rizzo could be in discussion, and even those guys are pretty low BA players.

The correct answer is exactly what they did, none.

I dunno know about that- Bryant was MVP and Baez just missed. They won one and made the playoffs quite a bit. It should have been better, but it ended up being pretty damn good. Plus they made the right call and seem to be retooling well.

I wouldn't go that far yet. They are a .500 team in a shitty division and have no superstars. They are also benefiting in comparison (locally) from the Sox being atrocious.

Tell Eloy I said hello.

I’m saying it. I really like Stroman and Steele. Hoerner looks like a budding star. I see how they are trying to build.

Happ has surprised me too.

If the DH had been in place permanently before they non-tendered Schwarber, I would have given him one more year.

You’ll to have to indulge me a bit. My (our) teams are so consistently bad that average feels good. And I love baseball to death. The product, both the league and the Cubs, is significantly improved.

They are just a .500 team this year. But the trend looks upwards from here.

I think he'll be back catching after they realize it's not him. They started to pitch to contact ( dumb AF)

Zac Gallen 88 starts 3.04 era

At least the Cubs busts got a World Series championship.

Not looking like that is going to happen for the Sox busts.

I read tonight that their GM wouldn't trade Nootbar and Donovan for Murphy in the off-season. Nootbar and especially Donovan are good players, but $87M minus whatever Murphy is making would have definitely helped paper over that pitching staff.
