I'll allow it.

They invited Russell after all. Tone-deaf assholes.

I was wrong about Polanco. They plan on playing him at 1B. So the Mets' plan is to play a 1B and 3B who have never before played the position. I wish them good fortune in the wars to come.

Makes sense. They already have Semien and Polanco at 2B.

The difference there is Matt Shaw is a good defensive 2B, and he was able to overcome concerns about his arm strength. Bichette has literally graded out as one of, if not the worst, defensive SS in baseball. I'm less sanguine about his ability to handle 3B. I do think he can play 2B.

And you would have preferred the Cubs pay $40M+ AAV to find out if your theory is true? For a team that values IF defense so highly?

You mean maybe the worst defensive SS in the league not named JP Crawford?

Bichette can't play third.

So BN's strategy on BlueSky is just autoposts of old stories and no engagement? That sucks.

Honestly can’t believe people are against this trade.

All the experts and writers think this was a good trade for the Cubs. But Jayfairy doesn't like it. Well, I'm convinced.

What an idiotic take.

WHOA!

Fanbois are still gonna pack Wrigley and sell out the Cubs Convention and post their OMGs on social media next season, and the Ricketts know it. Nothing will change as long as the Ricketts own the team.

The only thing that will fix this is fans boycotting Wrigley and the Cubs Convention, but that will never happen, and the Ricketts know it. They have a legion of loyal sheep.

They don't play until tomorrow?

Whoever sets up your post scheduling needs to rethink their process.

MOCCBomb just said on the hellsite that he's signing with the Cubs.

ESPN keeps pushing him to the Giants.

JJ Watt is really, really good at football analysis, on both TV and social media. He's a natural.

Jed's cooking with gas now!

They're gonna need it if they keep cheaping out on free agents. Fans aren't in the mood to have smoke blown up their asses.

I swear to God, if they trade Nico to put Shaw at second, I'm done with this organization until the Ricketts sell.

I would like a new third baseman. Bregman would be ideal.

You almost sound like you should root for another team. Since this one so consistently disappoints you.

Apparently, AJ Preller has crazy, Internet-breaking shit planned.

I never said they were worse. They can all be bad, you know.

No thanks. They're owned by Nexstar now.

Keeping receipts for 3 months? Touch grass.
