@JohnScott841686 @TheNotoriusPAT You came to my post to spew idiotic comments. Maybe you leave?

A troll account that gets pissed when you tell him he’s an idiot. I’ve seen it all.

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

I’ve been told Ian Happ is a 4th OF at best…

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

@JohnScott841686 @TheNotoriusPAT He’s the 12 highest fWAR OF in the game right now. Not LF, OF. But sure… in a league with 90 starting outfielders, he’s a backup. Dunce.

@TheNotoriusPAT This has been the word in the chat

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

Thank your lucky stars for Ian Freakin Happ

[Chicago Cubs @Cubs]

IAN HAPP.

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

You just can’t make this shit up.

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

@fcutter22 Key word is, “good” the cubs haven’t really had good outside Horton (hurt) and maybe Shaw

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

All the good juju the cubs had early has shifted over to the south side (and well deserved, they’re fun).

But just fricken frustrating up north, all roses down south.

BRADEN MONTGOMERY HITS A WALK-OFF HOMER IN HIS MAJOR LEAGUE DEBUT!

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

@stlcubsfan1 I believe the at bat before this was a 90+ mph liner to the 3B. That giants series he had the same thing.

Nico Hoerner’s babip is .252 right now.

Before the start of May, his babip was essentially league avg, .297

From May on it is .213

He’s experiencing some incredibly bad luck #Cubs

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

@MitchellClemens I’m not using it as an example to be optimistic. But more a comment on the team’s best hitter in the first month + has been incredibly unlucky and just adds a bit of salt to this gushing wound.

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

This team is just fundamentally broken right now.

I’m typically very positive. You knew they weren’t as good as those 2x 10 game win streaks, but they should not be this organizationally broken. #Cubs

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

If I were to give a compliment on Dansby. The dude plays hard, hustles, does all those little things competitive players do.

Well, besides hit. (Yes, that’s a dig, but I honestly like Dansby)

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

This was the best ever.

The kids will never experience the joy of having the all star ballot handed out at a baseball game

@fcutter22 @brendan_cubs @MelvynWindmon You said as of late, but even in the last 4 weeks he’s been good.

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

@fcutter22 @brendan_cubs @MelvynWindmon Nothing like moving goalposts 🤣

In the last 4 weeks he has a .815 OPS a 124 wRC+ 13 XBH- so still good numbers.

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

@fcutter22 @brendan_cubs @MelvynWindmon Since May 22, his OPS is .983 and he has a 170 wRC+

That’s 12 XBH (7 2B, 1 3B, 4 HR) 7 Runs, 14 RBI

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

@fcutter22 @brendan_cubs @MelvynWindmon I guess a .983 OPS is his effort lacking as of late?

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

@fcutter22 @brendan_cubs @MelvynWindmon I suppose we’ve made the complete circle, cause this is “as of late”

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

@fcutter22 @brendan_cubs @MelvynWindmon When Alcantara can’t hit, makes horrific mistakes (cost the game last night) and you have one of said guys slashing .286/.322/.661 .983 OPS with a 170 wRC+ since May 22nd I think your eye test needs to be tuned.

[jamie baker @rljmb23]

@fcutter22 @brendan_cubs @MelvynWindmon lol, his 1.8 fWAR is tied for 13th best among all outfielders in baseball. Not just LF, not just the NL.

13th most valuable outfielder in the game. That isn’t a 4th OF. That’s a bona fide starter on every team in the league outside maybe LAD and NYY
