NFT: Did the Cubs basically sell the entire roster?

GMAN4LIFE : 7/30/2021 5:10 pm
wow looking at the trades, its almost as if there is no one left on the team haha.

they really blew it up
once they decided to sell they may as well

they got a good prospect from the NYM and Madrigal is a big get. The Bryant return seems a little weak but that seems kind of expected since he's almost certain to test FA.
They are all free agents after the season

The Cubs could easily sign any of them back if they wanted to in the off-season

Not Kimbrel but as a baseball trade I'd rather have Madrigal.
The online sentiment toward the Ricketts family right now  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 7/30/2021 5:26 pm : link
is not good. Ricketts crying poverty despite being one of the top markets in the country, hiking prices through the roof, buying up all available real estate around Wrigley and poorly launching a TV network.

This will be 2013-2014 all over again.
No, that would be the Nationals

Good point.
I'm just glad the Yankees got Rizzo.

Hit a HR tonight to put the Yankees on the board and a big part of tonight's win.

Going to Cubs Giants at Wrigley Friday September 10th and Saturday September 11th. I think hitting up Murphy's pregame will be more fun than the on the field performance.
Rizzo is like Mr. Cub

here in Chicago. Really popular.

But his game has tailed off.

Rizz has started making really lazy base running mistakes like getting picked off multiple times.

He also has made some lazy fielding errors not seen in past years.

Notice the use of the word "lazy" in both of the above criticisms...

Well he will fit right in here then.
There is only one Mr. Cub
