Cubs are life.

@Michael_Cerami Turn him into the Justin Grimm of the pen 🤌

@FullCountTommy If you are a Chicago sports team, do not get anyone after they were with Wisconsin or St Louis. It just never works out, that’s how it is.

[Tim @AMBROSEts1]

@FullCountTommy Any indication that pitchers are attacking him differently? Or do you think it’s mainly Nico’s approach that’s changed?

[Tim @AMBROSEts1]

@TheBlogfines Was curious if it was a day/night situation at home, but nope, splits are nearly identical there at home. Perhaps just a batter’s eye adjustment when coming to Wrigley? Who knows…

[Tim @AMBROSEts1]

@brendan_cubs The thing that you can actually see in him beyond the numbers: he is pitching with confidence and conviction. Once you get that combined with his nasty stuff, that’s when you really see the jump to elite levels.

@macmcanally @jimmybuffett I love that thought of a sequel to a song! I’ve always thought certain songs can be “side stories” to others, and creatively thinking: there’s a song called “In the Willows” by Tyler Ramsey/Carl Broemel that could be related to A Pillow of Winds by Pink Floyd

[Tim @AMBROSEts1]

@PaulHembo From the other side: Cubs only went down 1-2-3 once over a 3-game stretch last week (per Thursday’s broadcast).

@WatchMarquee @LieutenantDans7 Call me in from the bullpen to do a postgame show from my living room? I am fired up and not ready for bed!

[Tim @AMBROSEts1]

@WatchMarquee @LanceBroz The Clark segment in the booth was absolute cinema 🤣 Excellent work y’all.

[Tim @AMBROSEts1]

@Brett_A_Taylor Meanwhile, on the Lovable Reunion podcast, we hear how Schwarber was with the team in 2016 during his “season ending” injury.

[Tim @AMBROSEts1]

@cubprospects I’d be curious about the correlations between the annual power breakout guys, and the cautionary tales. Sure, each guy has their own mechanics/approaches, but I think of Matt Mervis, Jordan Walker, etc.

[Tim @AMBROSEts1]

@voiceofcohen2 All of a sudden, there’s only 3ish offensive spots NOT locked down long term. Amazing!

[Tim @AMBROSEts1]

@TheBlogfines Dear Craig: please do not bring in Kingery/Carlson if Ballesteros happens to be up vs a LHP. Ever.

[Tim @AMBROSEts1]

@thescorechicago @MLBBruceLevine So why is this taking so long? Feels like the Cubs are being used for leverage at this point

[Tim @AMBROSEts1]

@Michael_Cerami First it was Nico, and now this. Did the Cubs do something to these folks at MLB Network?? I demand a full investigation, and they should probably hire me if they want to be better

@Cubs @ABREG_1 And then he’ll have to change it to 4 after this season

[Tim @AMBROSEts1]

@FullCountTommy @OttoRocket9 Quick observation - No left-handed bench guys. Wonder if they’d prefer to change that

[Tim @AMBROSEts1]

@Michael_Cerami I’m assuming Bo is still projected to get the highest AAV + most years right?
