We now have the best infield in the NL!
Love it love it GoCubsGo
RIP to Bob Weir.
I'm pleasantly surprised with this move.
Right on Brother
Da Bears!!!
DO NOT TRADE NICO !! I swear I will become a White Sox fan if the Cubs trade him .
🐻⬇️
We got him Mick!!! We got him!
We have to re-sign Tucker at this point.
Well we need a right fielder and one that’s worth his salt… Seya as much as I love him, he’s not it… but who am I kidding, that’s not happening
I said last year when they traded for Tucker, Jed’s plan is to get under the tax in 2025, and spend big in 2026 probably over the tax, cause they don’t want to be the repeat offender ! Since 27 they have a lot of salaries off the book.
So they can under tax in 27 easily and back to square one again.
No one believes me ! Cause no one sees the Jed’s plan!
Stop trying to trade Nico. You trade him then you get into the season and wished you had him. Really great that they got Bregman.
Don't trade nico
Go cubs go we need a another outfield
Hey Mick. Wow, I went from BORED of the Cubs offseason to being HYPED. Cabrera such an electric high upside SP, some good BP guys, and an insanely awesome character guy, clubhouse leader, and damn good bat at 3B. Way more excited for this season.
thanks Mick
Oh yeah! Cubs got that right handed bat! Milwaukee Root Beers are crying now! Nice roster Cubs!
Can they also sign Bellinger?
You called it Mick. I do think Shaw has the ability to be a super utility player. Upgrades the bench. I am hoping Balasterios or Alcantra can handle DH. RIP Bob Weir, you went out on one special Saturday Night
Hope this works out. Keep Nico and Shaw!
Now you are happy huh, Cassie is not better than Bregman nor Suzuki time will tell you but Cubs did a good thing
Now… Are the Chicago Cubs really done or are they gonna push all in?
My all and wondering would be now would you see if Ian Happ would waive his no trade clause and some other roster spots to free up cash and bring back Tucker to go with Bregman?
Oh, I have issues with this particular individual not with his playing ability no but with his character and character doesn’t matter, regardless of what people may say and I don’t care what profession you choose be a the president of United States or a bricklayer a school teacher or someone who works in food service at 10 yearly matters and integrity is important. This person was involved in and supported one of the worst stains in the history of baseball, he cheated himself he cheated the team. He cheated his fan and he cheated all the fans of baseball. Is this the type of person that you want to have on the Chicago Cubs forget about his ability to play the game I believe in redemption of people I believe in second chances. I don’t think he has said the things that he needs to say to be fully remorseful for what he has done. I didn’t think they were gonna get any of the four but the one I thought they might’ve gone after actually gotten was Cody. A truly hope our new third baseman is remorseful and actually means what he said. I I want that to be true, but I’m not a believer. you’re gain trust one drop at a time one small drop at a time and when you break it, the whole container runs out. It becomes empty and trust has to be regain at one drop at a time. Reader, shipping character go hand-in-hand. I believe now more than ever character matters. I don’t think the cub has helped that out at all
Looks like the Cubs sold their issue at third base and got out without what cost???? This is something to think about going a little further what are the Cubs going to do with Nico now? Are they going to trade him? I think that becomes a more distinct possibility. there are a few players and the Cubs organization that they could slide into second base.
Finally! No more Shaw at third! 😊. HOORAY!
Dumb
I hate this move , hate it , should have signed Matt Chapman 3 years ago for way less. 35 million a year for an aging cheater
This front office is a diaper full of day old turds
Shaw , Nico, Triantos all on the trade block now and that’s a mistake
Cubs shouldn’t be done , go sign Tucker , go sign Bo , if they really want to go all in then break the bank
Bregman is the last guy I would want in the clubhouse. He crossed the line. He is a smug cheater.
Brujan and Berti were horrible subs last year. Shaw will get 400 AB’s as a great sub.
I love the grateful dead and Bobby Weir. thank for playing in the band, Brother Bobby
again. I am a massive deadhead and cubs fan. let's go cubs and thanks for all the memories, Bobby!!!!
YYYEEESSS YYYEEESSS YYYEEESSS ⚾⚾🐻⚾⚾
Trading Nico doesn’t make no sense. He hit with runners on base and was a clutch hitter. Gold Glove winner that’s a throwback player that’ll hit .300. Then you’re talking about trading Nico for who? You SIGNED a 3B because the guy you had wasn’t hitting only to go to another situation like that at 2nd base?
It’s a right handed bat who knows how to drive runs in. He doesn’t strikeout 160 times like Pete-Swanson-Suzuki-Happ or even Busch. I hope they leadoff Nico and then can have a hell of a middle and not be shut down by lefties.
