How the hell is Corey Seager on this list?

You have the right priority by having Cubs on the main screen.

Crusty Jones @bakuntz.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

I’m fine with it, as long as he wins a Chevy Colorado with you know, technology and stuff.

Crusty Jones @bakuntz.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

I don’t think he’s healthy. 97-98 compared to 100-101 is pretty telling.

At least Paprocki pronounced their names right. Unforgivable to mispronounce Bruce Sutter’s name.

I thought this was a photo of Jose Lind.

I remember seeing my share of shitty Thursday afternoon games at Wrigley against Reds too.

000

I’m sure it was Pedro’s idea to DFA Milner too.

Maybe the investment banker they just promoted didn’t like Hoby’s data from rehab appearances 🙄 Hell, send Zeferjahn down, DFA Thielbar, but don’t get rid of Hoby. Brutal.

Crusty Jones @bakuntz.bsky.social · 25/08/2026

Very surprising. Hoby was one of the only relievers I trusted for awhile.

You can blame me. I have Kevin Gausman Thumb Disease from constantly voting for Jose for six straight weeks.

And we get to see four more years of control. Or lack of control.

Geoff Zahn all day over Zeff Erjahn.

It feels like a sting that cops set up to catch child molesters.

@pointlessexercise.com Are you getting the VIP Package or just the standard tix?

Crusty Jones @bakuntz.bsky.social · 12/08/2026

But it’s cost-controlled gasoline. For the next four years.

Crusty Jones @bakuntz.bsky.social · 12/08/2026

This one only cost the Cubs Burt Hooton.

It’s as good as Thumbo referring to Tyrone Taylor as “Naylor.”

While front office types sit it out.

I still remember Bruce Miles defending the Heredia deal on The Score the next day. One of the few times I disagreed with Miles.

000

Yeah that’s really where I’m coming from on this. All we’ve heard Hoyer say is how you can’t trust relievers from year to year. And he turns around and dumps Moises for a reliever who is “controllable.” Who needs controllable relievers if they’re so volatile?

He’s only walked 24 more guys than Zeferjahn with 80 more IP. This is more about how little they value Moises and are trying to make Ayers the golden boy since they finally lucked into developing a hitter. And Ayers is three years older than Moises

Jed’s constantly pushing his theory that relievers are so volatile, you can’t trust them from year to year. But he has no problem trading Moises for a “controllable” reliever.

But don’t trade Ayers for Soriano.

130

If some weirdo from Bleacher Country can be wrong today, how about if Bastian is wrong too?

Jed: You want Ayers for Soriano? No fucking way!! But you want Moises for some reliever? Hell yes, I’ll do that!

The fans of Chinese Taipei’s national team beg to differ.

We REALLY all lose since Cubs are instead getting Braxton Garrett.

It was a done deal until Arte Moreno was informed that Ty Southisene was no longer available.

It’s pronounced Nick Madrigal.

I quit watching in the 3rd. Fuck Kershaw.

And now get to piss away the trade deadline

Crusty Jones @bakuntz.bsky.social · 02/08/2026

Whose picture will the asshole autograph in his new team’s program?

Ricketts furious upon seeing Antoine arriving at Wrigley today, as Jed had told him he’s a white Frenchman.

Something tells me Wantz will also wear it for no more than one game.

I can still hear Brickhouse. “One of these days, the wind is going to be blowing just right and Little Mick is going to get one into the basket.” That 110 mph wind just never happened though.

Crusty Jones @bakuntz.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

I hope they don’t ask him to sign the lineup card to commemorate this historic event.

Crusty Jones @bakuntz.bsky.social · 25/07/2026

Triantos and Caissie were hanging around on concourse pregame at SB Cubs game in 2023. Kid asked them for autographs, Caissie signed, Triantos said “When you’re as good as I am, you don’t sign autographs.” I’ve wanted him traded since. Please get him the fuck out of here.

It was mandated by Tweedle Dum. And first reported by Bruce.

Chase Meyer was kicked off the team at WVU in March. 2026 low IP had nothing to do with health; his mouth is the issue.
