Yeah, but I’m a spoiled, entitled cry baby now.Could’ve sworn the cubs just made the playoffs 4 years in a row.

This thread is full of people saying the cubs have flaws. Wtf have you been reading?
I would trade Kris Bryant.
Read the second sentence in the first paragraph. I asserted the "flaw' comment and proceeded to discuss the holes in the roster. But those holes didn't just magically appear. They've been season long. And prior to the Kimbrel signing... Theo made no progress to fill the gaps.This thread is full of people saying the cubs have flaws. Wtf have you been reading?

Is he trying? Probably, but a barren farm system and so few tradeable value players have limited him, imo. Exhibit A... KS only has value to an AL team. And Theo may have missed his narrow window on KS.

Willson Contreras is starting in RF tonight, so, offensive woes solved! Totally not a random, clutching at straws move by Maddon.
Goddamn Darvish is tanking again!!
I swear he’s choking on purpose.
Schwarber needs his ass kicked, too.
Suck itMan on third, less than 2 outs...Caratini pops up.
Great work, dude.
Play a catcher in right field in the ninth inning of a close game and bad stuff happens.
He made a great throw the inning before, but, yeah, if you have a Jason Heyward on your roster you need him out there for that inning. You have to figure out how to work the roster, Joe.Play a catcher in right field in the ninth inning of a close game and bad stuff happens.
This is on Joe. Why the hell wasn't JHey in RF as a defensive replacement in the 9th? Great effort by Contreras, but c'mon, put guys in a position for success.
We called that when it happened. He the out. Now a sac fly beats you.Russell made the worst play of the inning. You're back and the ball wasn't hit hard. Go to first. If he'd have done that, we're in the 10th now.

Is he hurt? I don't know. Not in the dugout.If he's hurt, he's hurt. Why can't a major league infielder take the out at first?

Everyone should be on the table, but it's going to be tough to get value in a trade for Kris Bryant in-season......and KB isn't a piece toy trade simply to rock the boat.
Growing up in Chicago I really enjoyed Jack Brickhouse along with Vince Loyd calling the games.
I grew up in the non-cable era and never even knew who JB even was. However, Vince Loyd and Lou Boudreau were at the top of my list. I listened to them, all hours of the day, wherever the Cubs might be playing.Growing up in Chicago I really enjoyed Jack Brickhouse along with Vince Loyd calling the games.
