    Re: 2018 Chicago Cubs

    More pitcher in the #8 spot, please...

    If youre going to shift the heart of your order up a spot, then you have to move the pitcher to 8, as well, to get the full benefit, imo

      This thread hasn't received a whole lot of action this summer (I rarely check it myself), but here's an article that some folks might want to take a look at vis-a-vis Joe Maddon's status.

      Chicago returns from the break atop one of the tightest division races you'll ever see. Where the Cubs finish in that NL Central scramble could determine their skipper's future.

        Would y'all give up whatever it takes to get Merrifield? I can't decide. He's a great fit right now, but was a major late bloomer and I don't know if his numbers are sustainable over the next 4 years to justify moving 3-4 important pieces.

          Breaking my long OS posting drought for the Cubs thread....

          I think Merrifield is the perfect fit for this team, but that asking price is gonna be awfully high for a 30 year old whose game is built on speed.

          If the Royals would take Happ + Russell + a prospect and then throw in Jake Diekman i'd be all about it.....but I sort of doubt that would get it done

          (That did sort of hurt to write cause I love Happ even though he's got some glaring holes, and would kind of hate to see him go)

            Wow Russell to AAA now that Willson is back. Did not see that coming but it's probably deserved

              Strop back to the IL with a bad case of "suck" - and maybe tightness in his neck. Underwood Jr. called up.

                Ben Zobrist making his way up to AAA Iowa this weekend. I think he's gonna make it back in time to be postseason eligible.
