I wonder if Spent can do field work for the male roller derby team. I dunno, like sweep and mop the track in between rounds or whathaveyou.

Speaking of, it's been a while since Spent's posted.

I'm going to guess the die-hard Cubs fans would say it's worth tanking the team for the next decade or so just to have seen the Cubs get to the Promised Land after 108 years. I can understand that feeling after watching the Red Sox finally win in 2004.

But your run of the mill Cubs fan, assuming you can find one, would probably say it wasn't worth it, but that's okay, the White Sox are doing alright and are a Chicago team, so it's all good.

The Cubs fans I know would say it was worth it, but the Cubs ownership could burn down Wrigley Field, and they would spin it as a win.

It isn't like the Cubs have gotten rid of everyone. They still have Arrieta, Hendricks, Contreras, and Heyward from the 2016 squad.

Some cherry-picked fun facts...

The Orioles have scored 13 more runs than the Yankees this year


Cedric Mullins has a higher OPS and more stolen bases than any Yankee


Mullins has more HRs than Giancarlo Stanton


John Means has a lower ERA than Gerrit Cole

I think being a DH is hurting him offensively.  Not playing defense harms alot of guys offensively.

So the 3 most recent relievers picked up by the Brewers all suck. Axford last night, Norris, and Curtiss tonight all giving up a ton of walks and hits to the Pirates.  

Pirates might win one tonight.  Good thing the Reds are losing.

There’s some young arm talent in the pipeline. Means, Mullins, Mountcastle, Mancini.. hopefully Rutschman comes up sooner than later. If they can hit on a couple starters they could start turning it around in the next couple years.

They were toast in 2011 too. Brewers were tweeting about how great it was that the Cardinals would be watching them in the playoffs.  You know who bounced the Brewers out? The Cardinals.

Baseball is crazy so I’m not going to give up.

Any of the Brewers fans here listen to the game on the radio broadcast? Did Uecker throw shade on the Pittsburg ownership for being cheap and not keeping players for the fans to be care about? I was out with the fam and could only listen with one earbud in crowd noise. Couldn't hear everything too well.

But otoh I got texts asking if I wanted tix to Fri and Sun games. All free again. I'm going broke on free games.

I expected them to keep one guy. Bryant was gone, that was apparent for a while now. He is still pissed about being screwed out of a year of free agency during his rookie year. Rizzo and Baez hadn't really produced this year, but i expected them to keep Baez just for his defense.


There seems to be a few mentalities that I've seen.

1. Half of them think the team is going to compete for a playoff spot in 2023(despite most of their good prospects being below AA) and spend $100 million this offseason. I'm not joking on this. When i try to tell them that the rebuild will probably take 3-5 years(like the last one did), they just stare blankly and say i'm nuts.

2. Most are extremely upset at getting rid of their favorite player(be it Rizzo, Bryant, Baez).

3. Half the guys they traded away are just gonna come back to the team in the offseason, cuz they're "the cubs" and everybody wants to play there.


Personally, my wife was pissed for several days that they traded Rizzo. I told her it was either that or lose him for basically nothing. She understood, but was still hurt that it happened.
