The debate will turn out to be only the third biggest shitshow of the week.

break up this team and start over.

They can't even do that. What do you think you'll get for a group of .200 hitters and pitchers that walk too many people.

At least quintana lasted longer in the playoffs that Jimenez and Cease

Clearly a win on that trade.

Yeah, that would be so fucking Cublike. Trade these guys when their trade value is at their lowest. Always a winning move.....

You're right. But it's not by design. Most of the players that would get you anything in a trade had awful years and still have a year left on their contracts. Do you trade them now at nearly the worst possible time or wait and hope they have a better year and look to be busy at the deadline? Either way, they are fucked.

The problems with the offense have been apparent for 3 years and the front office does nothing to fix it. They just keep hoping a bunch of veteran players will change.

why do all these cubs ABs look like they're still trying to hit HRs?? how about making contact and getting on base and moving the line. I mean this is basic stuff.
