Will the Pirates ever have Skenes, Ashcraft, Jones, Chandler, Barco in the same rotation this year? Has potential to be scary

@RushingBaseball No hate! I’m just not a Cubs fan, and he was the only one bringing any offense when I attended Italy vs. the US in Houston. And I also can’t help but notice that he’s literally the whitest of white boys. You’re the one bringing the ballet-hating Chalamet into the conversation. 🙂

The obvious conclusion here is that Daniel Palencia is the best closer in the world

@Davey_Baseball Too close to take is a little league phrase that casuals think they can apply to MLB lol

Hate the “too close to take” takes. A ball is a ball, especially when the dude is throwing 102 and breaks off a nasty slider to you. It was a ball, ump got it wrong, but are US players supposed to apologize for it? Shitty ending to a great game. Thankful for ABS in MLB this year

@RushingBaseball At least 5-7 a game per side. That’s about what they miss each game on each side it seems like.

@dwest___ Feel like Royals will be platooning him and Isbel with Marte and Thomas especially if they want Sal and Jensen playing almost every day

Otto Lopez 2B/SS (ADP ~230) 2025: .246/.305/.368 15 HR, 15 SB Finished season 160 overall via Razzball Player Rater Expected stats indicate Lopez was unlucky in 2025. His xwOBA (.330), xBA (.269) and xSLG (.434) were all much higher than his actual results. An 83% contact rate, 81st percentile sprint speed, and every day role give him a solid floor. With some better fortune on balls in play (.264 BABIP), he should be on base more and it wouldn’t be surprising to see that result in 20-25 SB. He already made big strides decreasing his GB% and chase% and if that continues the ceiling could look something like 2025 Maikel Garcia.

@Mike_Kurland @Brett_A_Taylor Maybe eventually. I really think Busch will play most of the time the first few months. And he’ll have to build up a sample before they decide they don’t want him hitting LHP. Not saying it’s right or wrong just how it stands right now

@Brett_A_Taylor @RushingBaseball Thus thinking Murray could be that guy for them. Or Carlson and maybe we see Shaw play some 1B Shaw has played just 1 game there so far in spring

I know there have been reports of #Cubs Michael Busch not platoonin. Here were the trends in 2025 - He only had 11 starts vs LHP (out of 42 games against LHP) - This included just 1 start in the final 10 starts vs LHP to finish out 2025 - He also sat against the only LHP they faced in the playoffs - Had rough splits vs LHP in 2025 as well (81 wRC+ and .692 OPS) It is very hard to project him as an everyday regular. Do I think he initally gets a shot vs some LHP? Yes. But I also think the leash is short vs LHP and a platoon role becomes likely if he does not start off hitting them very well.
