again, the cubs will not do what i want.

they will do the first lineup

no tucker, no suzuki, no platoon. Happ hitting 4 or 5

i mean if i had my druthers i’d try to find a taker for kelly over amaya but i tend to think they’ll get a better return for amaya despite really kelly making next to nothing in grand scheme of things.

yeah but that 10.5 mill salary difference can go to Tucker.

Ignore this World Series @mehblurgh.bsky.social · 40m

MLB 2B split: .680 OPS
Matt Shaw: .690 OPS

Like i said, i not thrilled with the top of the order. However, they would be better served going with platoon at 3B than at 2B

i’d rather have him over nico honestly.

Ignore this World Series @mehblurgh.bsky.social · 50m

how i would assemble the cubs

Petecrow CF (L)
Shaw 2B
Tucker RF (L)
Suzuki LF
Busch 1b (L)
Ballesteros/Caissie DH
Kelly C
Swanson SS
platoon 3B

honestly, not thrilled at the top of that lineup. but i think a 3B platoon is better than a 2B platoon

@Alden_Gonzalez After completing his second season, Mike Shildt is indeed retiring as the Padres’ manager, as @sdutKevinAcee first reported.

A shocking development, to say the least.

Is Nick Foligno a vegetable?

Ignore this World Series @mehblurgh.bsky.social · 16h

yeah that’s not happening he’s not waiving unless he gets a new deal and the ricketts/jed won’t allow them to eat the entire 19 mil plus throw in something like alcantara and not getting anything back

Ignore this World Series @mehblurgh.bsky.social · 16h

also they will crow about how mo is good but ignore they traded or let walk 3 better OFs than their 2 corners

Ignore this World Series @mehblurgh.bsky.social · 16h

exactly he’ll play out his contract then get extended after the strike at a new cap number which will likely be equal to tucker.

Ignore this World Series @mehblurgh.bsky.social · 17h

they will end up trading seiya because they won’t get anything g for Happ.

Ignore this World Series @mehblurgh.bsky.social · 17h

they’ll call it a youth movement but it’s a rebuild

if i wasn’t sure the cubs weren’t doing a “rebuild” i’d say he would be the perfect cubs tucker replacement
