@ClarkAddis1060 @SamOlbur Yeah I was drunk using Google and they lied to me lmfao

[Ricky the Philosopher @Ricky666Hansen]

@SamOlbur What’s sad is I felt like our FO sold us out last year at the deadline but who know what he’s really talking about or too

[Ricky the Philosopher @Ricky666Hansen]

@CubsSkipper They ain’t selling but they’ll stand pat.
Jed already said they’ll need to wait on players coming back over trades

[Ricky the Philosopher @Ricky666Hansen]

@Leitner2Brian @SamOlbur As you said about Horton and Steele.
When it was obvious the pitching was never going to hold up the hitters gave up on the season and knew it wasn’t a WS year.
They turned into a unserious team waiting for the next season.

@Fubeca78 @TalkinBaseball_ @TalkinJake @trevorplouffe The cubs started in a slump and that’s when they faced the dodgers. They got hot shortly after that series against the Phillies and then took off from there.

[Ricky the Philosopher @Ricky666Hansen]

@jacobzanolla They play like a team with no leader

[Ricky the Philosopher @Ricky666Hansen]

@PrazMaster @Cubs Game postponed

[Ricky the Philosopher @Ricky666Hansen]

@wyattB2024 Is the immense pitching depth in the room with us? lol

[Ricky the Philosopher @Ricky666Hansen]

@BNightengale Ok?

[Ricky the Philosopher @Ricky666Hansen]

@johncal24 @PaulVan31 @BleacherNation My main point being is that we need another front line guy for the playoffs.
I like all our SP but we need another bigger guy.
We got plenty for injuries but none for permanent rotation spot.
Boyd isn’t going to repeat.
Wiggins isn’t ready yet but he has potential.

[Ricky the Philosopher @Ricky666Hansen]

@johncal24 @PaulVan31 @BleacherNation I knew people would mention those side players like they always do.
And I always say.
Go to one of the top teams in the league and show them that list and try not to get laughed out the room.
They’re good players in case of injury but none are front line WS caliber

@Brett_A_Taylor I’m not convinced Gallen will be past next season.
25 was mostly due to hamstring issues
Same with Imanaga
Injuries mess up seasons sometimes

[Ricky the Philosopher @Ricky666Hansen]

@chifanpatt2 Plus Gallens problem last season was Hamstring issues. That can heal during a winter.
It was the same reason Imanaga had an off season as well.

[Ricky the Philosopher @Ricky666Hansen]

@FullCountTommy But he may bite that one since Boras usually likes the prove it year thing disguised as a 3 year with opt outs

[Ricky the Philosopher @Ricky666Hansen]

@DEvanAltman His issues last season was just hamstring issues. One off year and people act like we going to get a declined pitcher in his late 30s lol
Gallen will be good again

[Ricky the Philosopher @Ricky666Hansen]

@Davey_Baseball Their hate for him is actually confusing
He’s considered #9 in best LF today and arguably the best defensive one out there today.
There’s stats from the last 5 years that’s more consistent compared to others. I don’t understand the expectations for him

[Ricky the Philosopher @Ricky666Hansen]

@realcubsinsider I tried it before living in Omaha Nebraska and it said every cubs game was blacked out for me every single day.
