SonofaRoache Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Our division is weak and it has been difficult trying to figure out how good we really are. We need to get this thing sorted out in the next three weeks. We can't go into mid May with this many question marks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjusttyped Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 The team isn't talented enough to win when the manager is actively hurting them in every game. 1-7 record in games decided by 3 runs or less. Go to any reliever besides Ruiz and we're likely watching the bottom of the 9th right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

35thstreetswarm Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Jose Ruiz in that situation, really?! That was one of Ricky’s most glaring errors last season that made me turn on him once and for all. Feeling like more of the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is crushing the ball. If he's healthy he's just a good hitter who provides quality abs instead of just giving abs away. I saw that coming.

Its unfortunate, but everyone of the young/young vet players that supposedly broke out in 2019-20, as it turns out just had a career year/year and a half with the lone exception of Giolito. It sucks that they rebuilt just to end up right back where they were in 2016. If Robert breaks out they can get a king's ransom for him though. Hahn should not get the opportunity to fix this but he will, because White Sox. Edited April 17, 2021 by Jack Parkman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. Exactly this. Edit: and they'll say that their jockey is also the man for the job. It's like city slickers meets weekend at bernie's with TLR just a bunch of joker clowns watching a few horses gallop around with a dead guy on their backs.

Cubs’ fans at least had 3 straight NLCS, 2016, even 2018 and 2020 were. 5 postseasons in 6 years, depending on how you look at the 2018 debacle of an ending. We can’t even get past the Indians when they’re spending $80+ million less, lowest payroll in the majors by far. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
