Dansby makes SS look like the easiest thing on earth.* - Warrin'_Illini August 6, 2026, 14:46:25 Tough break to have 1 game vs. Toronto and draw a Cease start* - OB25 August 6, 2026, 14:03:32 I guess it's fair, he was supposed to start in the rainout - RVA August 6, 2026, 14:08:20 oOo - KingTalkyTiki August 6, 2026, 13:17:28 Could we please have dominant Skenes tonight? - Illiniphil August 5, 2026, 17:28:05 It’s wild that Skenes has been so bad - CanHartlebHireSnider August 5, 2026, 23:14:03 Narrator...* - Carl Spackler August 5, 2026, 21:20:12 Dodgers 4-8 since July 23rd - KingTalkyTiki August 5, 2026, 16:32:47 Can we get him to go to Milwaukee and Green Bay? - Illiniphil August 5, 2026, 17:25:17 Got close but awesome sweep. What a run the last few weeks have been - CanHartlebHireSnider August 5, 2026, 16:27:37 0-6 stretch for LA is also great because it greatly improves odds of MIL as 1 seed - OB25 August 5, 2026, 17:54:14 F the Dodgers so hard. What a series.* - Warrin'_Illini August 5, 2026, 16:31:34 I heard they ruined baseball* - opossum jenkins August 5, 2026, 17:13:21 Ok hurry up and get through the top of the 5th before the storms hit* - OB25 August 5, 2026, 14:42:39 MV-PCA Part 2 - jeez - have a game young man! * - aimlessillini August 5, 2026, 14:42:02 MVPCA* - Gene Parmesan August 5, 2026, 13:30:11 Say it again!* - Warrin'_Illini August 5, 2026, 14:41:43 2-2, HR and a double* - Gene Parmesan August 5, 2026, 14:02:13 GodDAMN!* - KingTalkyTiki August 5, 2026, 14:43:44 3-3, 2 HRs and a double - IlliniSax05 August 5, 2026, 14:41:56 Brewers beat writer says the Brewers offered Luis Pena plus at least one other top 100 hitter - CanHartlebHireSnider August 5, 2026, 09:21:44 0.0000000000000000000000000%* - Carl Spackler August 5, 2026, 16:41:41 Saw somewhere that the LAD pieces were a better fit for Detroit - RVA August 5, 2026, 11:51:16 Seems like cope - CanHartlebHireSnider August 5, 2026, 12:05:33 If DET intentionally took lesser prospects to make Skubal happy, the FO should be run out of town - John Coctostan August 5, 2026, 13:14:55 Sure, maybe, but why doesn't the Detroit front office get agency? - RVA August 5, 2026, 12:48:16 They do get agency - CanHartlebHireSnider August 5, 2026, 13:08:31 I trust your prospect evaluation so why do we think this is happening? - Warrin'_Illini August 5, 2026, 12:35:08 Well the reporting is that the Tigers simply believed that LA had the most to offer - CanHartlebHireSnider August 5, 2026, 12:59:05 Fair enough. LA's roster is just unbelievable, make this sweep very satisfying.* - Warrin'_Illini August 5, 2026, 16:40:36 16 over. Season high. Beat Skubal. Go for the sweep against the Dodger tomorrow - CanHartlebHireSnider August 4, 2026, 21:39:53 fun game to be at, especially once the loudmouth dodger fans behind us left* - Gene Parmesan August 4, 2026, 23:19:37 Seemed awesome on tv, JD kept noting how much the crowd was buzzing all game.* - Warrin'_Illini August 5, 2026, 08:51:11 More like Terrible Skubal.* - Toonces August 4, 2026, 21:15:12 Tarrible Skrubal.* - Warrin'_Illini August 5, 2026, 08:38:31 It would be amazing if he turned into a tire fire for the rest of the year. - Illiniphil August 5, 2026, 07:22:27 He actually pitched pretty well last night. Unfortunately for him, the Cubs have - Warrin'_Illini August 5, 2026, 08:48:05 Out dueled by Javier Badass-ad, as expected* - Herman Blume August 4, 2026, 22:02:18 Skik Tarubal* - RVA August 4, 2026, 21:19:05 More like Tarik Boo-bal.* - IlliniSax05 August 4, 2026, 21:17:22 WTF was that slide, Seiya? - IlliniSax05 August 4, 2026, 20:40:17 Great day. 5.5 back. Reinforcements coming. Let’s do this* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 21:50:15 Carson actually challenged the pitch on offense. Cubs are learning* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 21:06:49 One of the worst at bats I’ve ever seen by bregman* - Mrap24 August 3, 2026, 21:02:17 Autofill? - IlliniSax05 August 3, 2026, 21:17:52 Thankfully some great ABs around him.* - Carl Spackler August 3, 2026, 21:06:30 Yep.

Very underwhelming.* - voiceofreason August 3, 2026, 18:38:33 Yup* - Carl Spackler August 3, 2026, 18:23:18 Everything works for the Brewers but I agree - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 18:14:51 Padres get Casey Mize. Interesting* - UofIL6 August 3, 2026, 17:03:18 Son of HOF'er Johnny Mize. - osklister August 3, 2026, 18:32:55 <Leather> I think you mean future Hall of Famer Casey Mize <Leather>* - GMAW August 3, 2026, 17:06:44 AJ rolling again. Get Pivetta back and maybe Musgrove and in a good place* - LeatherneckIllini August 3, 2026, 17:06:19 In a perfect spot to lose to the Cubs again* - GMAW August 3, 2026, 17:07:21 lol* - GMAW August 3, 2026, 17:07:00 sounds like Nootbaar has been traded* - DanSaint August 3, 2026, 16:44:33 For a Charleston Chew and a 3 Musketeers?* - Illiniphil August 3, 2026, 18:41:46 going to Arizona* - DanSaint August 3, 2026, 16:49:47 So which guys are starters and which are relievers? I’m not familiar with most of these guys* - shua August 3, 2026, 16:26:58 Zeferjahn is a reliever. Clay Holmes was a reliever now a starter, Gausman is a starter - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 16:32:18 Not sure how they’ll handle it but I like that they could have the depth to stack 2 SP’s in October - OB25 August 3, 2026, 16:41:49 If Steele is healthy I assume he’ll be giving short burst outings too* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 16:58:00 Forgot about Steele. I’ll also say that Peterson vs. Imanaga the next 2 months will be interesting. - OB25 August 3, 2026, 17:09:39 Provided they’re healthy the pitching options are really good mix and matching in the playoffs - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 17:13:05 Maybe Ben Brown too* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 16:58:09 Giants close to acquiring Marcelo Mayer from Giants for Erik Miller - DanSaint August 3, 2026, 16:23:59 Ok dream Sep 1 Cubs roster - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 16:00:07 Per Heyman: Holmes and Tyrone Taylor to Cubs for Rojas pending physicals - DanSaint August 3, 2026, 15:48:45 Holmes to Cubs * - MC August 3, 2026, 15:48:12 Ok I was wrong. For Rojas and with Tyrone Taylor. Glad to get another starter* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 15:48:47 Also for personally I might take Rojas over Zyhir Hope - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 15:51:56 Love both of those guys. Holmes is a dog. Taylor is on the mother of all heaters right now. Will be - voiceofreason August 3, 2026, 16:17:48 Guessing Cubs don't do much more - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 15:36:34 Once again, cost controlled starting pitching deemed too expensive* - Carl Spackler August 3, 2026, 15:42:27 The return for Adley Rutschman is (on paper) one of the biggest overpays you’ll ever see. - OB25 August 3, 2026, 15:25:00 Zeferjahn to Cubs. Not sure about Detmers * - MC August 3, 2026, 14:49:51 Ballesteros and Mason McGwire* - UofIL6 August 3, 2026, 15:06:15 Whoa Ballesteros. Man, that star faded fast* - Carl Spackler August 3, 2026, 15:41:01 Yeah sad to see Mo Baller drop this far. McGwire gets to go home* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 15:07:39 Hopefully Cerami didn't get confused on Angels pitchers but Zeferjahn is a great add* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 14:56:47 Cards trade Dustin May and JoJo Romero to Brewers. No word on return* - DanSaint August 3, 2026, 14:40:52 Ragsdale and Fries going to St. Louis from Milwaukee. Damn good return - DanSaint August 3, 2026, 14:58:21 You want fries with that?* - SurfTheBoneyard August 3, 2026, 15:25:31 Cubs are acquiring Braxton Garrett* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 14:14:28 Need to see what’s left after the injuries. I liked him quite a bit in previous seasons * - MC August 3, 2026, 14:26:49 Jonathan Long and Jace Beck. 2 older minor leaguers* - UofIL6 August 3, 2026, 14:18:47 Luke Weaver to Pirates* - OB25 August 3, 2026, 14:09:53 Cerami says Detmers to Cubs. LFG!* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 13:47:48 Cerami says he's standing by this. Never been wrong before* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 14:17:41 Guessing it’s similar to Carrabis “breaking” the Rutschman trade… - OB25 August 3, 2026, 14:30:10 Oh no Rogers throwing cold water on this. Never seen Cerami be wrong before* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 14:02:14 Dammit* - OB25 August 3, 2026, 14:03:03 My hope is that Cerami just jumped the gun? - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 14:11:35 Jesse Rogers says no deal * - MC August 3, 2026, 14:01:23 Now a get a reliever and this a great deadline. Got the two legit starters needed* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 13:50:32 Per X, Cubs get Detmers - UofIL6 August 3, 2026, 13:47:15 From Chatham, IL. Probably a Cardinals fan. - Warrin'_Illini August 3, 2026, 13:49:26 I'm sure it was talked about here and I didn't see it, but I saw something about how the Dodgers... - tvillini August 3, 2026, 13:34:30 15 years ago when Frank McCourt was using the team as his personal piggybank - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 13:41:34 OK, that's basically what I saw. I guess my issue is, I don't know how you fix it. - tvillini August 3, 2026, 13:54:11 ooo - dk August 3, 2026, 13:40:20 That's what I saw. - tvillini August 3, 2026, 13:52:13 Oh man the Dodgers are getting Bubic. I love Bubic - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 13:21:11 They’re 100% gonna resign him before the CBA expires like Skubal - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 13:22:17 It is really going to suck if there is no baseball next year.* - Warrin'_Illini August 3, 2026, 13:23:55 Oh there’ll be baseball next year - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 13:27:04 I hope youre right.* - Warrin'_Illini August 3, 2026, 13:40:07 Padres are adding (just got Robbie Ray) so I don’t think any real impact relievers are available.* - OB25 August 3, 2026, 13:08:20 Weaver is* - DanSaint August 3, 2026, 13:08:53 He’s had a great 4 months but doesn’t have a track record I would trust. - OB25 August 3, 2026, 13:15:12 Scott?* - opossum jenkins August 3, 2026, 13:10:52 DeGrom invoking his no trade clause. Would have been cool if the Cubs could’ve landed him* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 12:58:10 *pokes Cubs front office** - ISeeDeadHawkeyes August 3, 2026, 12:32:59 I thought it was Wednesday but today is indeed the day to make it happen.* - Warrin'_Illini August 3, 2026, 12:37:24 Rutschman to Red Sox deal is in the final stages. What a disastrous rebuild by the Orioles* - OB25 August 3, 2026, 11:58:19 white soxesque.* - Ari Gold August 3, 2026, 12:12:22 i wonder if they keep it going and Holliday is moved. Is maybe Gunner moved - DanSaint August 3, 2026, 12:04:56 Luis Arraez to Phillies. Feels like a perfect fit. Gotta think Stott is probably being moved also* - DanSaint August 3, 2026, 08:52:18 Jose Soriano to Blue Jays per Passan* - DanSaint August 3, 2026, 08:37:09 Interesting Blue Jays are buying after selling Gausman - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 08:42:32 Arjun Nimmala part of that deal. Nice piece* - UofIL6 August 3, 2026, 08:39:16 Do we think there will be additional moves? Moar pitching would be nice.* - Warrin'_Illini August 3, 2026, 08:30:11 I would certainly hope so. Gotta try to win now.* - JFG August 3, 2026, 11:00:01 Jim Bowden lulz - OB25 August 2, 2026, 20:26:37 he was distracted counting the money he skimmed off those Dominican players he was GM for Washington - DanSaint August 2, 2026, 20:34:41 per Rosenthal: Cubs acquiring Kevin Gausman - DanSaint August 2, 2026, 20:02:56 Gausman to Cubs* - OB25 August 2, 2026, 20:02:48 Not a lot of fanfare for the Jays return - Carl Spackler August 3, 2026, 07:16:58 So... best case scenario for the Jays is Nick Madrigal and Doug Dascenzo?* - Tortillini August 3, 2026, 08:28:47 I would say so far the rumors of prices being expensive hasn't played out all - CanHartlebHireSnider August 3, 2026, 08:02:15 For Brett Bateman and Ty Southisene - CanHartlebHireSnider August 2, 2026, 20:07:33 I looked up Southisene and thought to myself “Wow you don’t see a 20 Power grade often” - OB25 August 2, 2026, 20:18:54 Bateman went to Minnesota. Kane Kepley is a better version of him - CanHartlebHireSnider August 2, 2026, 20:49:21 Bateman and Southisene per Mitch Bannon - DanSaint August 2, 2026, 20:07:20 Gave up #13 and #21 prospects on MLB.com rankings, so not much of a price as expected. - OB25 August 2, 2026, 20:07:20 Good. Have wanted him for years. Think the Cubs have too - CanHartlebHireSnider August 2, 2026, 20:04:40 talk is that they are going after 3 pitchers this deadline. Gausman slides into Rea's spot - DanSaint August 2, 2026, 20:06:07 Yeah Mooney reported they’re interested in adding 3 pitchers - CanHartlebHireSnider August 2, 2026, 20:10:43 if it were me, Holmes, Detmers or Soriano if you're wanting another starter and Sentzella from Col. - DanSaint August 2, 2026, 20:13:10 Josiah Hartshorn was pulled mid-game today for the South Bend Cubs. - Carl Spackler August 2, 2026, 17:38:12 He wasn’t in the lineup yesterday - CanHartlebHireSnider August 2, 2026, 17:57:56 I think you could do a deal without him. To me, Hartshorn means it's a bigger name* - DanSaint August 2, 2026, 18:06:12 Detmers is probably the most valuable starter on the market and Urena is much more valuable - CanHartlebHireSnider August 2, 2026, 18:48:45 if he's involved...not really a starter out there that goes there. Could it be a Mason Miller move? - DanSaint August 2, 2026, 17:48:10 Oh Nico, that was ball 4. Close enough to challenge in a huge spot* - Mrap24 August 2, 2026, 15:04:48 Nico getting all the blame and much of it deserved, but the ump was ultimately at fault again. - OB25 August 2, 2026, 19:25:38 Yeah I can’t believe he didn’t challenge that* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 2, 2026, 15:05:27 Great AB, Pete.* - Toonces August 2, 2026, 13:32:18 Rays acquire Freddy Peralta - DanSaint August 2, 2026, 12:56:37 Three prospects, none of whom I am familiar with - bjl63 August 2, 2026, 13:25:16 That closes the book on yet another David Stearns trainwreck acquisition. - voiceofreason August 2, 2026, 17:25:04 Oh yeah I forgot the Dodgers are coming to town tomorrow. Skubal starting at Wrigley* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 2, 2026, 11:12:21 Also the fact that the Tigers did this deal 30+ hours out from the deadline - CanHartlebHireSnider August 2, 2026, 11:49:54 Skubal to the Dodgers. Sucks. At least not Brewers I guess. lol that Zyhir Hope is the big piece* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 1, 2026, 22:37:50 Really not fair that the Dodgers system is as loaded as it is. - OB25 August 1, 2026, 22:51:23 Every team could invest in player development. Many opt to be cheap - bjl63 August 1, 2026, 23:13:49 Ehhh that’s making it sound way too easy. Lots of teams are investing in player development. - Carl Spackler August 2, 2026, 06:29:53 I would wager they are investing quite a bit more than most. A sweetheart TV deal and Guggenheim - voiceofreason August 2, 2026, 10:37:52 Hope is interesting, but redundant for LAD. And, Ryan turns 28 in a few weeks - UofIL6 August 1, 2026, 22:56:21 I think pipeline overrates Hope a bit. I don’t think he’s gonna be that great in the field - CanHartlebHireSnider August 1, 2026, 23:03:19 LA has all the depth to make the deal - bjl63 August 1, 2026, 23:15:14 I think they got hamstrung a bit by doing right by Tarik - CanHartlebHireSnider August 1, 2026, 23:18:09 That’s bad business. You can “do right” and still hold out for more - bjl63 August 1, 2026, 23:21:41 Yeah I believe 0% of this had to do with “doing right by Tarik” - Carl Spackler August 2, 2026, 06:32:02 I think 0% is way too low a number - CanHartlebHireSnider August 2, 2026, 09:17:19 0%. Should he “do right by the Tigers” and just sign a cheap extension then? - Carl Spackler August 2, 2026, 09:53:37 same boat. "rentals" don't have the same value as they once did - DanSaint August 2, 2026, 07:44:03 Like two days ago you had the Cubs giving up Matt Shaw and a top 100 prospect - CanHartlebHireSnider August 2, 2026, 08:56:56 I really don’t get the “oh my god baseball is officially dead” stuff on Twitter. - OB25 August 1, 2026, 23:00:05 I think Tarik probably wanted LA too - CanHartlebHireSnider August 1, 2026, 22:52:57 Further proof expiring deals don’t have that much value* - bjl63 August 1, 2026, 22:49:15 Man, LAD just grabs everyone* - UofIL6 August 1, 2026, 22:48:38 Further proof it’s a good idea to invest in player development* - bjl63 August 1, 2026, 22:49:52 Also I’m curious if Hartshorn was held out for any actual reason* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 1, 2026, 22:40:50 Such a huge win. Needed it. Steal one tomorrow* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 1, 2026, 21:04:05 Went down 2-1 and thought it was over. Nice win.* - Toonces August 1, 2026, 21:21:25 Pedro Ramirez starts the rally. I’m buying all the stock in him, makes Shaw more expendable.* - OB25 August 1, 2026, 21:20:48 Yeah I’d be willing to part with either if a trade needs to get done - CanHartlebHireSnider August 1, 2026, 21:26:09 Definitely more upside with Shaw but that also means he’d bring back a better return. - OB25 August 1, 2026, 21:31:26 Yankees ran out of challenges and this ump has been unleashing bad calls on them since.* - Carl Spackler August 1, 2026, 21:00:39 Two god awful challenges too* - CanHartlebHireSnider August 1, 2026, 21:04:32 Craig is great at leaving pitchers in too long - IlliniSax05 August 1, 2026, 20:08:48 Peterson continues to impress.
