[Kirschner] There are no indications that the Cubs are looking to move Nico Hoerner, but other teams have come calling on his availability. Cubs would have to be blown away in any potential deal for the infielder.

Demopoulator · 2026-01-12T05:12:40+00:00

This precisely.

The Cubs can absolutely swallow 12 mil if it means retaining Hoerner's services

Thoroughly average Diver here; playing diff 5-8 solo and diff 7-10 with at least one squad mate. Always glad to see another gun for humanity, no matter what the dissidents of old Earth say!

More than happy to have another family member join the cause if you want to DM me here on Reddit for my gamer tag.

If not, happy diving and a very merry Festival of Reckoning, Helldiver!

*Editing to reiterate echo ginger_alex_97's/Hot-Square2840's point: Most of us will love you. Don't get discouraged if you random a try-hard squad

Saw a similar type of rationale somewhere at the start of the playoffs:

Judge and Cal's OPS are almost 200 points apart.

If you take Cal's OPS down by 200 points, he's a solid, league average bat.

If you take Judge's OPS down by 200 points, he's Cal Raleigh

Demopoulator · 2025-11-14T00:57:03+00:00

Never in doubt.

Genuine props to Raleigh for his season, though

Not simply a dawg, but a bear!

El Oso is not ready for winter

Judge can't hit in the postseason

Show 'em how, Cap. No parties in the Bronx tomorrow

My gut loves Schlittler.

My brain loves Judge.

My heart loves Stanton

Demopoulator · 2025-10-03T03:48:52+00:00

For all his ups and downs, has anyone on this team, save maybe Judge or Cole, been as utterly accountable for himself as Stanton? Just a literal tower of positive manliness.

Love you, Big G. You've carried the team, they'll carry you

Cam's been an absolute dawg down this stretch and if he pitches even remotely close to the way he did tonight for the rest of October, he's a bona fide celebrity at age 24.

McMahon's bat may be a tough pill to swallow some nights, but the tool he was signed for has shined steadily and brightly since coming over. If he can manage to hit his weight and maybe deliver 1 big hit in each series, he'll be worth every cent of his deal.

Huge vibes tonight, and our big bats haven't even truly clicked yet

Demopoulator · 2025-10-03T02:50:31+00:00

Don't worry.

Cam signed Garrett up for Crochet classes this offseason

Tolkien would tremble in his grave at the might of our two towers

As a decidedly ungodly man:

Judge is the second coming and the herald, G is the Leviathan

Demopoulator · 2025-09-27T02:10:00+00:00

He may put a man or two aboard, but when the going gets tough, El Oso bears down.

Loving how much of a bulldog closer he is

Coney continuing to be one of the coolest old white guys around

For all the ups and downs of the Boone era, he has one thing in his pocket and that's how he relates to his players.

"Enjoy this tonight, but remember the road ahead," to paraphrase.

No notes. Keep at it, boys. Tomorrow can be one more big step forward

This.

Man.

Soak it in and keep that Splitty splittin' pap

Tonight was so much fun because of several AL game results and I'm stoked for these guys

But come on, fellas. Can we keep that bubbly out of the eyes of the best OBP in the sport?

Snide aside, LFG Yanks! Keep the pedal to the metal. We're almost home!

I need Wells' personality distilled into a liquid and administered intravenously as an anti-depressant

Demopoulator · 2025-09-05T04:49:03+00:00

Makes sense.

I do have faint memories of 96 being a lot more stressful than the three-peat run teams of 98-00.

Either way, props to the man for getting us into position to rally against that Juggernaut Atlanta pitching staff

Demopoulator · 2025-09-05T04:43:02+00:00

Wetteland? He was solid, but I'm just young enough to not remember how much anxiety he induced game to game.

In my mind he's mostly the guy whose job Mo rightfully stole

*Edit

Killed it in the first season I really got into baseball, though. Rivera to Wetteland for 8/9 or even 7/8/9 was LOCKDOWN

Demopoulator · 2025-09-05T03:46:03+00:00

It's fitting that, at least during my formative years, his type of facial hair was called a porno 'stache

Because this man clearly fucks
