Cubs are crazy good. Machado da gawd tho :blessed:


Wish Schoop would get in too, but 2B is loaded this year. Nice to see Trumbo too. Every few years we always pick up a declining vet who ends up having a career year.

Didn't the royals also have like damn near the entire starting lineup last year or the year before?


Looking at the cubs schedule, they been getting exposed lately. First they sweep the pirates, which are a somewhat decent team. Over .500. Good cuz it's a division opponent. But then they get swept by the cardinals. Granted the division lead is nine games right now but you can't afford a sweep to a division opponent that's right behind you. Then they lose three out of four against the Marlins. Another decent but not great team. Then the Mets sweep them. A team that is at the top of the wild card race. Then they sweep the reds, who are where? In last place. They sweep the bad teams but get beat by the good teams. Their pitching i hear has been struggling lately.

According to Bill Baer of NBC Sports, both Bryce Harper and Mike Trout have stated that they would decline invitations, removing the two biggest young stars in the majors.

The same could be said about one of the top veteran stars in the league, with David Ortiz announcing he won't participate in the contest, per Rob Bradford of WEEI. Considering at 40 years old he is having one of the best years of his career, this is a disappointment.
