And the Cubs are out. At least they spent their offseason getting angry about 2.5 million dollars with their new superstar.

I doubt it.

Jordan Love is not good. Thank goodness.

The roster last year was not a 41 win team. They, too, should have been closer to 55 or so.

People in the comments saying they are worse than last year truly don’t understand how bad they were. It takes incredible luck to be that bad. They will still be dreadful but they will be 15 games better just by accident.

I don't know, moving from SS to 3B completely destroyed Machado's career.

Do you think he (or anyone) would volunteer to go on a podcast that would try and destroy him?

The Cubs not able to come to an agreement with Tucker is absolutely insane. What are they doing?

Kris Bryant went to war with the Cubs and that seemed to work out.

They all do it now. Jersey swaps, go on each other's podcasts. I'm only 40, but it sure ain't like it used to be.

I thought he was incredibly candid in the interview and comes off (TO ME) that he is moving a lot of things in the right direction.

Maybe he would have been better, but a high possibility he wouldn’t be. Guys are busts far more often than not.

Seems like a lot for a complete bum.

Crap. Him and Witt will put up a combined 9.1 WAR!

Part of me wonders if there is a trade in the works (Martin or something) that would clear a spot, which is why they haven't announced their signing from last week.

Yeah you are correct. So it'll be Scholtens and...not sure. Deloach? Colas?

Shewmake was, pretty sure. This one is going to be Scholtens I'd guess. Edit - Oh yeah, Shewmake was another move.

Yeah I never understood that. They need a guy like this. Honestly I'd bring back Flexen, too. Going to need A LOT of innings.

It's a minor deal so who really cares he can be cut in ST, but getting awfully crowded in the infield. Really makes me think Vargas will be getting 1B reps. Edit - Did not realize this guy is majority 1B.

Other teams do it just fine. The White Sox f*** up because they try it with their most unathletic people.

I'm sure one of the infield prospects they have will find themselves out there. Which worries me a lot less than sticking a first baseman into RF.

I’d be fine with either for what differences they bring to the table, but I’d really love Ben Johnson in Caleb’s ear.

It is pretty wild the Packers were a blocked FG from being 0-6.

Yeah, I have connections to people, too. A lot of them are dumbasses who I know suck at their job.

I would assume Johnson would have already stated that to the team, since it looks like he already turned down interviewing with the Jets for (I assume) a situation he does not like.
