It might help if they actually spent money on a legit FA???

But not juggernaut teams like 1995-2001 and then the late 2000s again...

except in October

Yankees/Rodon on the ropes... Boone's last game as NY manager? Looked pretty smart there.

Not 100% . Although his best postseason start by far. Dylan would have definitely knocked out the Dodgers when they were leading that NLD series 2-1 and had a bullpen game...had he actually pitched that well a year ago. Probably upped his FA value by $25-50 million tiday. if they don't make it to the next round.

yesterday someone wanted him fired a bit different story today after how dominant M.Miller was Btw, Leo de Vries will be a solid player ... but not a superstar imo. Probably moves to third. And he isn't a speed burner, so a four tool player.

Jeremiah Estrada Coachella Valley Jeremiah Estrada is joining the San Diego Padres. Estrada was removed from the Cubs' 40-man roster on Friday, sending him to the waivers. The Padres claimed Estrada on Monday. Let's hope this comes back to bite the Cubs tmrw after he didn't pitch well in G1...

Yu Darvish is 5-7 with an ERA of 3.77 and 61 strikeouts in 13 appearances in the postseason in his career Padres also will have King and Vasquez in the bullpen. Morgan and B.Rodriguez both have big arms as well. J.Estrada obviously moves up on the priority list. 33 pitches Morejon/27 MMiller https://stathead.com/baseball/versus-finder.cgi?request=1&match=versus_playervteam&player_id1=king--000mik&team_id1=CHC McGuire/Turner the main Cubs’ hitters with success against M.King not starting him doesn't exactly help make the Padres' case for retaining him as a FA though...maybe they already have a sense he's gone

Fathom has lost it lol... Despite saying they want to use Miller as a starter, tmrw is not the day to start that experiment. Not having thrown as many pitches today and also gone yesterday... Romy Gonzalez appearance

Padres starting Darvish over King Schittler tmrw if Yanks make it to G3

mlb getting their money's worth except Dodgers Reds Z.Littell Yamamoto not favorable

Cubs can rest core of their pen...another big advantage although they did use Kittredge as opener to nullify Tatis/Machado

nobody left to trade and limited budget Actually B.Rodriguez might be the heir apparent

hahaha now only worried about Suarez blowing up

you can't start this guy with Suarez departing in FA

GAS 2 ks per ip average in second half that's unfair on the corner

Eddie Vedder is actually a big Padres' fan

Kelly Happ Tucker the only Cubs hitters with postseason experience? Or Hoerner? don't think so it's pretty much equal if this goes to G3...Padres' been here/done that vs. home field advantage

Morejon a big time Preller intl signing who never made it as a starter but has definitely found his niche this year.

contract the umps

Extending Morejon through Tucker... that was quite fortunate Schildt avoiding Estrada lol

Because of the RHB you wanted for 1 1/2 games lol. Either him or Colt McCoy...who also can't hit much more than Amaya.

This is likely Estrada but actually like Morgan more... Or Rodriguez. But then Tucker is third, but still doesn't have his timing back after just 4 games.

Old school managers just don't trust rookies in these situations in the postseason.
