On that note......Darvish doesn’t make it past the 5th tonight.......again. Cubs currently down 5-2. Not feeling good about this signing right now, and to make things worse, Arrieta is dominating with the Phillies.:facepalm:

Kris Bryant gets hit in the head helmet spins around glasses come off and is taken out of game. Andy Haines Cubs assistant hitting coach is ejected for throwing his coffee. Top 1 all this happened. Cubs made a rally after this all happened too with two outs

I didn't see it, how bad did it look. I went to go get something to eat picking up some food. Got the game on now, Cubs up 3-0. Hopefully MVP is ok. Heck of a catch by Almora!

Darvish isn't near the Pitcher Jake is but I have said that all along. The Phillies are actually even good this year so far lmao

Laceration above eye from sunglasses, passed concussion protocol, sounds like he may be ok. Almora is cementing his place in center, what a couple beautiful catches today and yesterday.

Chili Davis was also ejected for yelling at the “poor” umps. Seems legit

Ya I had heard them say something about him but wasnt sure so didnt want to say anything. Ump this season have been so bad. 

 

Doesn't it seem like officiating in every sport has been the worst in the past year? Perhaps officiating has always been bad but we are noticing it more now because of replay and HD.

Kinda shaping up like some of us thought , Darvisch is not ace material such as Jake . Pitching is an art Jake has that. Just never was sold on this move. Think he may fare better away from Wrigley and Coors is no easy place to pitch either.

Cubs win, fly the flag Gozer. 10-9 now on the season and remain 2 back of the Cards. Seems like the Cards have played the Reds for a week now lmao. At least now they have to play the Mets coming up.

Just remember you have played them as well lol. Its still an early season , Cards rested Ozuna and Pham yesterday and still smoked them . Carpenter made an error that lead to the runs on an routine play.  Mikolas signing looking like a steal for the Cards , I was a little apprehensive when they did. Didn't know what to expect.

Yeah you still have to play the games. Reds are awful right now though. Your series against the Mets should be interesting.

Is this the year the Reds trade Joey Votto? Who would take on that contract?

No one probably ha...

I'm not saying your wrong but knowing Jocketty as I do , I'm gonna lay this right at ownerships feet. Not willing to bring in FA's is a big part of the Problem. Jocketty did a very good job in St Louis but he also had ownership who were willing to invest and field a winner. The Reds organization has had this problem for some time. They get good home grown talent , then they are not willing to pay up and keep them. I have watched this happen with the Reds for several years. 

That is very true. Castillini has done this since the Ken Griffey Jr. days of refusing to pay for talent. They'll keep one big name star on the team for a ridiculous amount of money and then scrape the barrel for everything else. I'm wrong to place too much blame on Jocketty.

Yes great point and that's exactly what they are doing .

Cubs are playing home derby so far against the Indians! Up 5-1 in the 4th with 4 HR's already.

 

Enjoy it.

 

The Mets face the Cards in less than an hour. The Mets are not playing as well as they did when they first played the Cards and Cards are playing better. I hope the Mets win at least one game.

They will not get swept I am sure of that.

    • Alot of people  sleeping  of troy franklin.  He is expected  to go in the second
    • I know a lot was said, but I really don’t like when people bring up JJ because he was such a unique case.  He fell for multiple reasons.  Analysts thought he was a product of the system, he shined because of chase, they thought he was just a slot guy.  JJ was such a curious case because he had the production to prove it but I think teams who picked other WRs ahead of him got wrapped up in the detractors.     TBH, the only player I can see in a similar predicament at WR is Adonai Mitchell, other than that, I think what you see is what you get.  Of course, there will be sleepers In every draft, but outside of Adonai, I don’t think there’s a “JJ” at WR In this draft.  Maybe Troy Franklin too. 
    • This presser has reinforced how I feel about this draft and what we might do.  This is one of the most “it can go any way” drafts I’ve been apart of as a colts fan.  Based on our needs, the strengths of this draft, and where we pick, there are numerous ways this thing can go.  Some takeaways I got from this presser:   - Getting AR a weapon:  I think after this presser, we are definitely getting an AR another weapon.  I’m not sure if it’s going to be with the first or second pick.  Bowers to the colts doesn’t seem likely to me now.  Ballard really likes our tight end group and I can’t see him investing a high pick into the tight end room given what we have.  But either way, either the first or second pick will be a weapon.   - Anything is possible:  we may trade up, stay put, or even trade back.  It all depends on how this draft goes, who they have on their board, and where they have them rated.  I can see us trading up if one or two of the top 3 WRs get to pick 9.  I can see staying put if our trade up options are gone but someone looks to be falling to us.  I can also see us trading back if we have first round grades on certain players who are left and can be chosen later in the first round.  I can see all of these things happening and it really all depends on how things play out.  Personally, I’d hope we trade up if one of the top 3 WRs get close enough and doesn’t cost us too much.  But either way, we’re in a unique position and this can go a lot of ways.  
    • Noway  Ballard  does that trade  but if he did he trade next years first for more seconds
    • I doubt  he moves up for any of those guys unless they fall to around 9-12. Only way I see us getting  Harrison  is through  free agency  in a few years if he chooses  to leave the team that drafts him.
