Come on Reed show that you are healthy so we can get a crap prospect for you to make everyone feel better about not making trades.

Would think some contender would want Reed to hit LHP

I don't think it matter much :lol: As long as they don't drop out of the top 5 in next year's draft I'm happy.

They have dug themselves into huge hole. I just like to watch winning baseball every now and then. Even the worse teams usually win 60 lol

ya our front 3 of z,demp,and garza are good but the back with wells,lopez,etc. are really undefined...and at times it blows up in our face

and of course, our bullpen screws us over a bit(cough marmol and marshall)

On this Cubs team, Colvin should be an everyday player.

I don't have a problem platooning him at this point when it is clear we need to be building his confidence at this level.

Yeah, that's more reasonable, but he needs at-bats everyday.

The Cubs are only 16.5 out. Ramirez is hot. Cubbies lead 5-2.

He needs at bats there is no doubt, and I am not arguing that he shouldn't be getting the bulk of the playing time. But given how badly he struggled at the beginning of the year and the fact that he really did look like he lost confidence in his swing. I don't mind him sitting against tougher matchups for him. If in the next couple of weeks the playing time for Colvin isn't well over 50% then we have something to ***** about.

If I pick up every pitcher the cubs face in fantasy the rest of the year we will probably make the playoffs.

God damn it.
