@BETMMFantasy Actually last year we at least won two games before the choke.

If you thought @WhalesChicago 1-19 yesterday was bad. Today they managed to go 1-28!!! Seriously! I almost feel bad for the people who picked them. For the second year in a row they completely noshowed in the playoffs. They might need to be called the Chicago Chokers henceforth

H-missing Justin Steele’s start Wednesday due to his vax refusal 🫠
-still missing Houck and Holmes from IL stints starting after the trade deadline
Now with the whining out of the way… no excuses, let’s do this thing

Vibe check heading into the playoffs vs. defending champs:
- missing out on today’s Cease start vs. ARI due to off day (on a day Cleveland had no starters going)
-missing two Zack Wheeler starts due to precautionary IL stint

We welcome the pride of Lucedale, Mississippi to our squad for the final push before the playoffs.
He’ll have to motivate from the bench today as somehow none of our 12 starting pitchers are taking the mound tonight

Justin Steele has a 1.67 ERA (8 ER/43 IP) over his last eight starts! @J_Steele21

A confluence of bad pitching timing and tough luck = 4 losses in our last 5. We are down bad.

@WhalesChicago Between the Gallegos gaff and this catch, I’m toast.

Came to watch our new pickup Kyle Freeland get his tits zapped in person

Glad our team leader has concluded his exhaustive personal research

Blue Jays IF/OF Whit Merrifield says he is vaccinated: “I’ll be in Toronto with the team on Thursday.”

@MmPerfectos @st_apostles While I usually hate Goldy succeeding against the Cubs, I would accept it tonight... but apparently there's rain in the forecast all evening 🫠
English
@WhalesChicago @st_apostles While I won’t be sad if you get an L, I do feel your pain, especially if it happens that way. Better hope Goldy hits 3 bombs tonight.

Going to get Reliever'd by @st_apostles because Jonathan Loaisiga threw two pitches in a game the Yankees lost 7-3.

An obstacle we did not anticipate this year was having a starting middle infielder traded to a team where he legally cannot play home games?

As for Whit Merrifield, John Schneider says, “nothing new,” re vax status. “Obviously we know he wasn't there in Toronto, but totally up to him. And I'm sure that he's had conversations with his family and other people. So, you know, we're leaving that decision up to him.”

We've finally learned our lesson after years of homer Cubs picks:
Cubs bad at pitching development.
Cardinals good at pitching development.

With the No. 20 pick in the 2022 Amateur Draft, the @WhalesChicago select Cooper Hjerpe, P, Oregon State. docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d… The @pilots_seattle are on the clock with a pick due by 8 p.m.

Our farm system has taken a beating these last two years but flags fly forever. Our time is now!

TRADE: The @WhalesChicago acquire hometown closer David Robertson from the @MMWashSens in exchange for OF prospect James Wood, ranked No. 65 on Baseball America. The trade deadline is just over 36 hours away.

@MMFantasy_ @MMWashSens Hometown for about another week when he will presumably be traded to a powerhouse to get many more save opportunities than he does on the hapless Cubs
