@dwest___ @aaronsnearly They definitely need to explore beyond the FA market

[RushingBaseball @RushingBaseball]

@aaronsnearly @dwest___ They have to get creative. It's part of why I didn't want Bregman the player long term.
The answer might be to let Happ walk and try to aim higher there, as good as he's been this year and in his career.

@dwest___ Schwarber would've been perfect. I don't know how to solve it specifically. Corner OF and DH are the only future spots to target with upside now that the rest are locked in long term

Pete looks so much more in control in the box the past few weeks. And still a demon on the basepaths

[The WARmonger @TheWARmonger_]

The PCA catch to end the game is another beauty.

Initial number is 5% catch probability from Statcast (that can change). His jump was 9.5 feet above average, that's elite, and he got up to 30.2 ft/sec in pursuit!

@The_Gildz As an owner I don’t wanna know

[RushingBaseball @RushingBaseball]

@FvckToddG @The_Gildz @TheReal_NFC Hell yeah dude

[RushingBaseball @RushingBaseball]

@TheEducator23 @BuschMVP Why?
Cubs have the 5th best offense in MLB by wRC+ and Happ leads the team

@BornOnThirdCubs That rotation is gonna be a problem

[MLB Pipeline @MLBPipeline]

Josiah Hartshorn swats a two-run homer for the @SBCubs, giving him 10 RBIs in 4 games since being promoted ⚡️

The @Cubs 2025 draftee became the first HS position player from his class to reach High-A earlier this week:

@forever_ndo Maybe lack of flash and lack of elite tools? Over 162 he always grades out above average, but sometimes it's a boring ride
