Bad The Russell sitch? Bad Heyward? Still meh, still making a ton of money. Add the Justin Wilson trade to that list (Paredes looks great as a prospect for Detroit).
September 21, 20196 yr Dreaded leadoff walk to Bryant after Molina didn’t hang on to the fouled strike 3.

September 21, 20196 yr The problem is Theo doesn’t like to keep young stars around like the astros doing or what the Sox trying to do

Gotta give the Cards credit. NOBODY had them doing anything this season. Talk all offseason and year was about the Cubs and Brewers battling it out for the division.

September 21, 20196 yr This is turning out to be a wonderful weekend. Hey Chicago what do you say...time to run Maddon outta town today ?

September 21, 20196 yr what happened to kimbrel he was such a good closer now he just a sgadow of his former self

September 21, 20196 yr Almost all of the damage against Kimbrel has been on the fastball. He might as well become Marmol-esque and throw a ton of curves
September 21, 20196 yr Just now, fathom said: Saw where some MLB writer speculated Theo might leave also really if he does the cubs window has closed
September 21, 20196 yr 8 minutes ago, timbo8 said: really if he does the cubs window has closed That’s not really the case because the Cards and Brewers have their weaknesses and FA losses coming up. Cubs have no choice but to be all-in at least one last time with the new network asking for $4-6 extra per month to all cable subscribers...

September 21, 20196 yr Kimbrel has allowed 9 homers. I could be wrong but that seems like an exponential amount for 1) a closer in general and 2) for a closer who's only been pitching for a few months.
