Uhhh... The one where you have to tag up on a caught ball?
-
Just awful baserunning by Alcantara. He got bailed out on the previous play and then made another mistake on the next one.
-
Hitting fly balls into the wind doesn't help.
-
He's an an all-time coattail rider, that's for sure.
-
Oh man, that sucks. Stacey King was such a fun, enthusiastic announcer. A breath of fresh air for a team that has been mired in mediocrity for so long.
-
It's almost like maybe Jed shouldn't have counted on a 39 year reliever being a key part of the bullpen.
-
If they are still selling out all the games, do they really care though?
-
Nobody does, which is why I assume this is a last ditch effort to build some leverage. Maybe if they REALLY start the process of moving to Indiana, then they will force someone into action to keep them in Illinois. It may or may not work. If it doesn't work, they may very well end up in Indiana even though they don't actually want to be there.

2026 Chicago Bears Offseason Thread

I thought that was awesome. -
If you think Alcantara is somehow an upgrade over Suzuki, you are in for a surprise.
-
I don't know if this is a dead ass team, but it certainly is a boring ass team. Fits Jed's personality perfectly.
-
The Cubs will finish the season with a better record, but the Sox are more fun to watch and may have a brighter future.
-
That's kind of Jed's thing. Why pay 25-30 for a real top guy when you can pay 20 for a mediocre player that you can try to wish into a good season.
-
The premise is flawed. Not all "top hitting prospects" are created equal. This is a weak system and the Cubs so-called top prospects are fringe Major League players, not future All-Stars.
