Would love to see a season long compilation of how many times the starting pitcher was the player of the game vs a positional player. I bet it'd be a 5 : 1 ratio at least
@citylimit33 OK, let me ask the question AGAIN! WHEN ARE WE GETTING SOMETHING OUT OF THIS TRADE?! MOREL , PURELL, OR PARNELL! WHEN ARE WE GETTING PRODUCTION OUT OF THIS TRADE!
@@citylimit33 Okay, since you went there with the BUM analysis! Explain to me your VERSION of Morel the BUM? Then maybe I can understand you better at what you're trying to say?
@@clarkware4178 as of june, as a third basemen he was ranked LAST of all qualified third basemen with -8 defensive runs saved and -11 outs above average. in fact, his -11 OAA was in DEAD LAST PLACE for all qualified defenders. now, hear me when i say that; he wasnt just the worst third basemen, he was maybe the WORST defender of any position in the entire league. LITERALLY anyone is better than him. by every recordable metric he was *terrible*
Its doesn’t matter if the Cubs win series. You would think that after winning 3 out 4 against the rivals you would have some momentum but nope the inconsistent offense showed up again There are two major needs in the offseason. Get a super star bat and a closer
I had the cubs playing about.500 baseball at the beginning of the year. When I look at the roster, they have average players, some that are below average, they need at least two big time star offensive players and then a shutdown closer. I’m not sure hoyer is going to be there in the last year of his contract. He made too many mistakes with the roster construction.
Jed needs a star. Jed : *insert Nick Saban meme He's never going to, he's spent so much money on role players and he's not gonna ever make a bold move, he's got 5 top prospects in AAA that gotta play somewhere and doesn't have room on the current roster. He's just gonna trade 2-3 of them for a cost controlled player that is the exact same as what he has 10 of. I love michael busch, he's had a great year, but he's exhibit A of Jed Hoyer. 15 HR, 44 RBI from a 1B. Meanwhile check out the best teams in the NL. Harper, Freeman, Olsen, etc. That's what championship contending teams do with power positions, now try and play the metric Moneyball game
KAP: You have selective amnesia when it comes to many troubling aspects of this team. Where’s Hendricks going to eventually end up? Are the Cubs seriously considering using him as a starter in 2025? Why is he still starting? Let’s go back to before he was sent down to Iowa and recall for all the fans that his ERA was 12.71 before he “worked on some things.” Yeah, like not having a hailstorm of balls go out onto Waveland and Sheffield. You kind of defer to his legend, instead of the reality that he’s 35 and hanging on by a thread with a 6.60 ERA. It can only go up, KAP. The Cubs need a lot more than a big time hitter, and closer. Hitters are teeing off on their starters with Hendricks the weak link. He has no value at his age and with his ERA patched with scotch tape.
Why are we running Hendricks out there every forth or fifth day he is and has been toast. I don’t understand CC he calls up a position player and then just lets him sit on his ass until he is sent back down 17 is now hitting 238 if this guy is the future it’s pretty bleak. When are these guys Hoyer and associates going to be held accountable for these atrocious decisions. I give the White Sox fans credit when their team sucks they stay home not Cubs fans they would show up if Hoyer painted the bleachers just to watch the paint dry 😂
Where do you put said "star" when your current team is basically locked up with contracts that can't be traded? Happ, Belli, Suzuki, Paredes, Swanson, Nico and Busch? Is there a "star" catcher to be had? 🤦♂️
Elimation number is 41. Front office isn’t getting anyone. Can’t be too hard on the offense, they faced a cy young candidate tonight. No point in boasting about the pitching when this offense Doesn’t do shit
This team's just never been in line from day one. If the offense and starting pitching were going, the bullpen was failing. Bullpen and starting been lights out? Guess what; no offense. Just like a machine with a bad gear that keeps blowing out, it's just not reliable
Besides drafting kris Bryant cubs have no history of signing superstars. Juan Soto is.that and the ricketts family going to play cheap it's going to be another off season of Jed trying get second tier they can't afford to pay elite players
@@liveanddieinchicagoliveand7074 LOL WHAT!? no they wouldnt 😂 it is insane to think that his mere presence on the team would make the other hitters have better overall seasons. lets say the cubs signed him in the off season, they would *maybe* be a game or two better, but still in the relatively same spot and everyone and their brother would of been screaming to trade him at the deadline lol
Jed doesn’t know the meaning of the word “ star “ . He’s gonna run the same offensive crap out there again in 2025 . He will add a closer and a starter and a veteran catcher and that’s it . Dude would rather get fired then aggressively spend
thats what yall dont understand 😂 a “star” wont do anything. adding a closer, a vet starter and catcher WOULD actually be exactly what this team needs LOL
@@citylimit33 except we have one of the worst offenses in Baseball but surely running the same guys out there next year will change things . LOL.. come on man ,. you know this group stinks offensively... they are all the same dudes
@@SeanHealy-no5xe so….. you think some how a “star” changes that????? LOL! same underachieving team, but add a star may be the dhumest logic ever uttered 😂😂😂😂
Don’t know what to say always something - not sure why Seiya is sitting - Happ is really not a leadoff hitter - Cubs seem to never take pitches when men are on base - PCA and Amaya’s 1st AB were bad with Swanson leadoff single- but hey nothing a 10 game win streak won’t cure LOL
@@FTLGSports-cw4hx YW, now we need these guys to play some consistently good ball. SP has been solid, BP has been great last 2+ months, just need the O to come around.
I mean the cubs aren’t a bad team. This was just a bad night. The cubs aren’t good or bad but in the middle. I predict the cubs win tomorrow but lose the series. I just think the twins are just a better team than the cubs to be honest. The twins are a good team this year.

DAVID ROSS IS LAUGHING AT YOUR ASSES 😂😂🎉🎉
And we all think how stupid you are every time you post that, so it balances everything out.
How many times are we going to see Ian Happ not come through when a big hit is needed???
He only comes through when it doesnt matter.
yeah, ian aint the problem 😂
Exactly bases loaded 2 outs automatic out him and Busch @@Tgrirch
You do realize that even the best hitters are going to fail 2/3rds of the time?
@@citylimit33 hes not a solution either and to have a no trade clause in his contract is wild
Hendricks must have the lowest Run Support Average in all MLB history for pitchers with 100+ starts.
yeah he didn't get run support last year either
WHEN ARE WE GOING TO GET SOMETHING OUT OF THIS TRADE AT 3RD BASE!? CAN SOMEBODY EXPLAIN THAT?!
we already have- getting rid of morel was the win 😂

CUBS W TONIGHT
I feel sorry for the fans who paid to enter Wrigley last night. Should be given a refund
Those dopes did it to themselves.
14 strikeouts, 4 hits. Cubs continue to make no name pitchers look like Cy Young winners. Just another pathetic performance.
I’m waiting for Jed’s all “star” Isaac Paredes to fill up the stat sheet. So far his only stats are errors and making outs at the plate.
He's 6 for his last 67. lol
better than watching that clown morel at third try and pretend he can play the position 😂 that was embarrassing
Not complaining tonight!
Its doesn’t matter if the Cubs win series. You would think that after winning 3 out 4 against the rivals you would have some momentum but nope the inconsistent offense showed up again
There are two major needs in the offseason. Get a super star bat and a closer
No, there was no offense that showed up.
Thanks for the reKap Kap! LET'S GO CUBS!!! ⚾️✌️💙🐻
Why didn't Swanson go home in the 9th anybody else curious.

i love these comments 😂 it always shows who watches/listens to the games and who does not
I’m guessing the White Sox will break the losing streak when the Cubs come to the Southside.
I'm guessing that you're wrong.
Jed needs a star.
Jed : *insert Nick Saban meme
He's never going to, he's spent so much money on role players and he's not gonna ever make a bold move, he's got 5 top prospects in AAA that gotta play somewhere and doesn't have room on the current roster.

Fire Jed Hoyer now!
Yeah that’s not happening. Going to be the same roster next year

Don't worry they will bargain basement shop for that star and flipper the Jock sniffer will tell you how great he is
This isn’t even a big free agent class is it? After Soto, who’s the next big bat up?
Alonso
Kap cried about spending more on the bullpen then they got effective now that stance never existed
Elimation number is 41. Front office isn’t getting anyone. Can’t be too hard on the offense, they faced a cy young candidate tonight.
No point in boasting about the pitching when this offense Doesn’t do shit
This teams hitting instructors are horrible! Malee is the absolute worse! Philly fired him and now look at them!
This team's just never been in line from day one. If the offense and starting pitching were going, the bullpen was failing. Bullpen and starting been lights out? Guess what; no offense. Just like a machine with a bad gear that keeps blowing out, it's just not reliable

"This team can make some noise in the playoffs if they get there" - Kap tomorrow morning on 1000
FDK
DAVID ROSS IS LAUGHING AT KAPs ASS AS WELL
Yeah right. The Flubs are the Flubs. They suck
The only way the Cubs see the playoffs is if they have tickets. Hoyer has to go
offense impotent again.
Cubs are just jealous of the White Sux, I mean White Sox with their 21 game losing streak.
HOYER WON'T DO IT
