Do we really want to extend Adames? Most people barely tolerate him at his current contract value. -
Going into next season, I’m not sure if the Cubs are better than the Brewers at any position, as of this moment. Plus, I would rather have Milwaukee’s rotation and bullpen, too. Upon further reflection, Nico Horner at 2B is much better than Turang/Monasterio.

CC is now a big-market manager, so understandably, he is now valuable. [half blue]
-
We could conceivably receive better contributions from every offensive position in 2024 compared to 2023.
-
If we keep Burnes, we are probably the favorites to win the NL Central?
-
Matthew Trueblood believes the 2023 Cubs would have won the NL Central if they had CC as their manager. Even in a vacuum, that seems far-fetched to me. link
-
This seems like a moment when we should agree to disagree on definition of market rates. 🙂 I wonder what the response has been from Cubs fans? Excitement, I assume.
-
For a manager to be worth $8 million per year, they would need to contribute multiple wins above ‘replacement level.’ Do we believe CC’s presence is worth multiple wins compared to how David Ross or another manager would have led the Cubs or Brewers?

If someone pays $800 for a specific steak, that doesn't mean market rate for steak is $ 800.

I disagree. If 29 out of 30 clubs are paying their managers far less than $8 million per year, we cannot say the market rate is $8 million for Craig Counsell.
-
Is Brett Favre ultimately joining the Vikings a parallel to CC to Cubs? I’d like the think Packer fans have forgiven Brett.
-
Definitely. It is not like politicians need legitimate reasons to get cold feet or to grandstand. MA has hundreds of millions of dollars of reasons to control the narrative.
-
I wonder if CC takes the high road in his press conference or dishes dirt?
-
It doesn’t seem like Mark had opportunity to match the offer?
-
It’d be pretty easy to say ‘We will always be grateful for Craig’s contributions.’ Attanasio is either legitimately surprised or he is coming out strong to paint Counsell as the bad guy to save face.
-
I guess they announce Manager of the Year next week.
-
Any doubt Counsell wins Manager of the Year award tonight?
-
Let him get 500 PA in Colorado or Kansas City. Maybe Oakland?
-
I agree. Cy Young award pitchers should have ability to request a personal catcher. Of course, it is Corbin’s job to execute pitches but just like a pro golfer doesn’t change his putter a couple weeks before a major tournament, neither should the Brewers have messed with Burnes/Caratini.
-
Do we regret not allowing Caratini to catch Burnes?
-
No need for five starters in a three game series.
-
Pham, Marte, Walker, Carroll and Thomas have had success against Woodruff in 41 combined career PA. https://stathead.com/tiny/ufr6A Diamondbacks haven’t seen Peralta since 2021. Only four of their current hitters have any PA against Peralta. Freddy has 0.55 ERA against Arizona in 16.1 IP. https://stathead.com/tiny/2BrBu

Arizona roughed up Burnes on June 18 at AFF. 5 IP, 7 ER However, Burnes dominated on April 11 In Arizona. 8 IP, 0 R. Our record against Arizona this year is poor but three of our four losses were started by Junk, Rea and Teheran.

Save Burnes for game 3 or game 1 of LDS. -
