Can Getz hire his own Jeff Greenberg "analytics guru" now? Cuz that was a tremendous hire by the Tigers.

This is one hell of a collapse by the Cubs. Even the Pirates spanked them.

So much facts.

Oof. That's a big loss for the analytics department. I know the FO adopted his "Madhouse" operating system to help kick start the change (which is what he used for the Cubs org as well I.E. "Ivy"). I hope they are continuing to adopt it or Greenberg is letting them keep whatever formulas.

Salvy better be the greatest mentor/coach anyone can ask for to Quero (and also be a brilliant game caller to pitchers). Otherwise, this makes 0 sense.

Cubs fans were so confident Justin Steele had the Cy Young in the bag... whoops.

So the Blackhawks are the only non dumpster fire organization in Chicago now lol.

No captain this year for the Hawks. As it should be. In my opinion, pretty much all but confirmed Bedard will likely be the next captain as soon as next season. Hope the kid learns alot from Foligno in that regard as well as Murphy, Perry and Jones. This is his team and he is the franchise.

Considering Greg has been well known for his absolutely insane optimism for years, him being pessimistic is a sight I thought I'd never see... only took him what.. 15-20 years here?

Yoelqui Cespedes will probably suffer the same fate down the road too. I'll never understand this organization's obsession to sign international players that are old. Abreu was the only guy that worked but his bat was absolutely special in Cuba (not to mention Sox got lucky he was a 1B and many teams weren't interested at the time).

I'm really curious to see who Shirley wanted in this prior draft but was overruled by Hahn picking Gonzalez.

I think the Jets would give up a decently high pick (they do not believe in Wilson). The rest of the teams, probably not.

How long till we hear the "start Tyson Bagent" calls from fans?

I've been a Bears fan since 2000. I don't think I've ever seen a WR frustrate me more than Chase Claypool. No heart, looks like Tarzan but plays like Jane, unmotivated (this is a contract year and he's playing like this?!) and pouts. Just take the L with him and move on next season.

It's so odd. I do wonder if it's overcoaching. He was not this gun shy/timid under Nagy his rookie season.

?

Ricky's boys didn't quit. Pedro's boys have mailed it in under him for months. And this is the guy Getz wants to bring back? The players clearly don't respect or want to go to war with him with their performance on the field.

God speed Colson. We need a culture change and a better defensive player badly and he is the start for both boxes.

Well it's nice to see our 1B reach 20 homers on the season.

If Clevinger is back on this team next year, I'm done. Sometimes for a player it isn't about stats. This isn't an A.J. Pierzynski situation and if Reinsdorf thinks that, then he's even more clueless than I can ever imagine. Clevinger is a grade A piece of s%*# and a cancer. The type of guy I'll never root for in any circumstance.

Heh.. I forgot about that condition. L for Green Bay.

Of course Aaron Rodgers might be out for the season AFTER he leaves the NFC North ?

And they're stuck with that Daniel Jones contract.. oof. At least Poles can draft HIS guy in the draft and dump Fields if need be (since Pace was the one who drafted Fields).

In other news, Carolina looked terrible today. Bears could be looking at another top 3 pick, potentially #1.
