    *** Official 2025 Chicago Cubs Thread***

    Slumps happen in baseball but my concern for this team coming into this season was the high volatility - Seiya and Happ have streaks where they look like potential MVPs, and then have streaks where they look like they don't belong in the minor leagues.Mix this with the unknowns of PCA and Busch...

    *** Official 2025 Chicago Cubs Thread***

    As much as I despise the Ricketts, I do think they'll open up the books quite a bit in 2026. There's a few things working for this 1) Many of the alleged debts that were handcuffing them are expiring 2) They were intentional about resetting the luxury tax this year 3) They want to be liked by...

    I think it’s fair to say Busch, Tucker, and Seiya all need to step it up. Unacceptable levels of bad going on for weeks and just needs to stop.

    STORY: Matt Campbell's annual book club pick is IN

    Is there a complete list of every book he’s had? Legacy and Twin Thieves are all I can remember.

    CW POD: Is pro wrestling fun again?

    Good ending to Summerslam - I’m in the camp that the WWE will never let Punk walk away with a title again given the **** Storm he caused the last time they let it happen

    CW POD: Is pro wrestling fun again?

    Kind of a weird ending in that one - clearly a bit of dialogue between the two but couldn’t tell what was being said. Kross is such a tough read because he seems like the worst type of employee if you’re WWE, but I also can’t tell if it’s a bit or not. His lack of push tells me it’s not a bit...

    PCA swinging at ball 4 when the ball is closer to hitting his forehead than crossing the plate. Tucker just looked clueless. Got to find a way to get MoBallers bat in this lineup - his first stint numbers were bad but **** give me someone who doesn’t look lost.

    The Tucker not coming back talk is crazy. I despise the Ricketts as much as the next guy but the Cubs will be players for Tucker.

    While he would be my preference, Happ will never waive his NTC. Suzuki would be the one moved if a move was necessary.

    Just because it seems some posters seem to think it’s Caissie OR Tucker…there are other ways to accommodate both. For example: You can trade the final year of Suzuki (who wants to be in the field and would waive his NTC) and get a hell of a return. Caissie/MoBaller could then replace him and...

    Pitcher is #71 in pipeline and #3 in the Pirates system.

    A little over a month ago Swanson was hitting .160 with a runner on 3rd and less than 2 outs. July was a good month, as he’s now hitting .280 in the same scenario. The .160 was noted after he mentioned in an interview he needs to figure his **** out. The problem is that he has struck out 12 of...

    I just think asks for starting pitchers via trade was much much cheaper this past offseason than it was at this deadline. My guess is this is why zero top 10 prospects were traded. I’d give Jed a solid D+ this deadline. Bullpen is undoubtedly better, bench is better. Your playoff rotation is...

    Our 5th starter is a ******* bullpen game and we couldn’t find anyone? **** off, Jed.
