2020 Team

Oh well. Hope thats the last we see of him as a Cub, looking ahead this is probably the last year for Lester, Chatwood and Q in a Cubs uni.

Hoping the FO will.give Adbert a real opportunity to grab hold of a permanent roster spot now. Not sure why he's being held back to this point.

A tad late but who’s been the Cubs first half season MVP?



Happ, Heyward, Darvish, and Schwarber are probably my leading candidates. Haven’t checked WAR or other stats but my guess would be Happ probably leading the way with Darvish right behind him



Any other thoughts?

[Butcher]

Happ and Darvish are definitely 1-2. Pick the order. Based on WAR it's Darvish.

 

Sort of surprising, Jeffress is 3rd in WAR on the team. Nice pickup.

 

And Adbert needs a real shot at the rotation. I like what I've seen from Underwood, too.

Yeah, if Underwood can minimize the HRs, he might be a solid swing guy.

I'm curious to find out more about this (particularly where this will be located), but I'm not a huge fan of such a tight integration between Wrigley and gambling.

 

And this is from someone who recently bought a bunch of DraftKings stock.

Yesterday morning, I noted that Happ and Darvish were probably first half Cub MVPs for this squad. Then watched Happ take a foul tip off his head in afternoon. I’ve changed my mind regarding Cubs 2020 MVP. Clearly, Clark, the Cubs mascot, is the Cubs 2020 squad’s MVP. Hopefully, the baseball gods will read this and allow Happ to heal quickly and return to the starting line up. And, Clark - Sorry son, and get your pants on just in case you end up being injured and are taken to a medical facility.

This makes me smile. Never should have let him leave in the first place.

[Auz]

After todays performance, there is no doubt that Yu is the man for first half MVP.

[MrSheps]

Because of his variety of pitches, I think Yu is the most fun pitcher to watch. What a 180 from his first season in Chicago. Truly amazing and such an easy guy to root for.

DFAd between games of a doubleheader is a way to go out.
