Need to go to the world series next year go Cubs go

He wants to be a Dodger 🤷‍♂️

The starting position players HAVE to play better this year in order for the cubs to win the division. Swanson, Hoerner, Happ, PCA, Busch, and Suzuki have to play better.

Make the trade if it makes us better, but not the Dodgers.

When’s the last time the Cubs have had that dawg. A guy who just goes out and gets theirs. Cubs need a spark. Someone with some attitude like PCA or like Steele. It took way too long for Steele to blow up on the team last year. Need a leader to hold the team accountable. Also need a closer with that attitude!

Omg I hate the dodgers

I think that Shota is going to be fine. If the wind is blowing out, he'll adjust to that. I think that he's a smart pitcher and was pitching to the conditions last season. Plus, if the wind is blowing out, it'll be blowing out for our hitters as well . I believe that Shota will be fine.

I'd much rather get Roki Sasaki. I worry about Corbin Burne's health.

Bregman is someone they are looking at.

They need 2 more bats. 1 or 2 more SP a closer and a set up guy. Logan Gilbert Luis Arraez Btw Finnegan is terrible

Bad take on Burnes feel like if he comes in and ace over Steele Steele won’t like that

Both

Not happening on Burns he is going to sign with SF.. who they should go after is on Dylan Cease.. and get bullpen help

The cubs need to focus on adding a left handed arm in the bullpen, someone like minter

I'm still not sold Jed is all in on this year til they get a real closer and another starter

+Burnes dominates the NL Central 💯

Yep, Corbin's market wasn't what they wanted in the 300-400mil range. Jed always jumps in with the 180 and opt outs 😂. This could be the Lester type move tho.

SCREW THAT FRAUD. SAMMY SOSA WAS A CHEAT. LIKE BARRY BONDS, LIKE PETE ROSE, LIKE OUR GOVERNMENT, LIKE LIFE ITSELF. FUCK THIS WORLD. I AM OUT

We need a closer closer 8:31

We need a closer closer 8:31

I hope Milwaukee takes a step back this year

Keep up the work homie! Smooth voice and good talking points. Pleasure to listen to while at work :) Question: Wouldn’t going after two (more) upper end starters push us to the 1st luxury tax threshold? If we have roughly 45 M, I’m not sure we could afford two starters and still fix 3B, C, & Bullpen. Thoughts?

How's about Whit Merrifield - 1 yr 5M - not the ideal 3B replacement but can fit in if we need at 3B Nick Ahmed - MILB deal - Depth piece defense is still above average Tanner Scott - 3yrs 60M - As steady as it comes over the last 3 yrs 20M a yr save some cash for the deadline

I don’t agree about Shota. He pitched for a mediocre team, and did quite well. I’d worry more about Burns with his injury record. Why do you think he hasn’t been signed yet? We all hope for Sasaki, but I’d like to see them get Luis Castillo.

Sammy was surely exciting when he played. I don’t like some things about him from the past, but forgive and forget. The Cubs story can’t be told without Sosa. I’m glad he’s back.

Nah dog shota is 🔥

Bring on Alonso!

Terrible move to trade Bellinger!

My husband loves your channel!!

The Cubs are too cheap to do that

The Cubs are too cheap to do that

Hey bro, first time on the channel 1:48 2:11

Thank you, Mike, i definitely appreciate and enjoy your podcast, thank you! I agree with your suggestion of getting Justin Turner. He can mentor Shaw or Bush at 3rd and still has a productive bat. There's a lot of youngsters on the Cubs, so Turner would bring a veteran presence to the team, and has plenty of playoff experience. I'm glad that you mentioned Turner, because my buddies laughed when I suggested that we acquire him! I'm still hopeful that we can get Roki Sasaki and a proven setup man and closer. If we can do that for the pitching staff,acquire Justin Turner and PCA and Bush can take a step forward and Shaw can hit as well as we're hoping for, the Cubs should easily win the division,and once they're in the playoffs, they could get hot and win the whole damned thing! Let's go Cubbies!!💙

Suzuki is next

And Cub fans are excited about this?

We need a legit closer to be real contenders, the absolute biggest weakness last season was the bullpen and to win in the playoffs bullpen is crucial.

I enjoy your coverage, but having watched Jed’s presser on the Marquee KZbin channel, I didn’t need a recap of the ‘whole’ press release, maybe just a few hi lights. Just an opinion😊.

It needed to happen let’s get alanso now

I expect the Cubs in 1st place all year. I can’t wait to see what Jed does next!

I agree on what we need, but doubt that they will get all that. My opinion, in this order.: 1. Sign Tucker long-term 2. Top closer & pen help 3. Top starter 4. Strong bat

Your comments on Happ and Swanson are spot on.

I gave up on the cubs in 2021 after 30 years of rooting for them . 2022 was my first full season as a cardinals fan . i became a st louis cardinals fan with no regrets . Cardinals arent gonna struggle for ever .

It's on cubbies

THEY CAN KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS, FIRST RIZZO NOW BELLINGER😭😭😭

Letsss goooo!
