Just a general comment about MLB. Owners and players are at a serious crossroads on this service time stuff. Cubs sent down Hoerner yesterday after a great spring but I'll bet he's back up in 36 games.

Speaking of Cubs. Doesn't sound like Rizzo/Cubs are even close to being on same page contract extension wise. I'd say enjoy him this year Cubs fans.

I call BS on the Cubs doing that with Hoerner.

You are gonna have to fill me in on Rizzo...haven't been following lately.

If Hoerner is down for 36 games I believe they own another year of service. Players agreed to it in last labor talks...but it's getting used a ton more lately.

Rizzo is tough. He should be rewarded for his years but he's aging. Has to be give on both sides.

I was listening to some Cub talk coming back home y-day.  Bote to start at 2nd, Pederson just as good as Kyle, and Rizzo won’t end his career at Wrigley.  At least that was one guy’s opinion.

Don't know about Rizzo's contract, but Baez and Bryant were absolutely horrid in ST games.

I think it is going to be a long year for Cub fans unfortunately. I guess it is on par with how the Bears and IU mens bb team played this past year. I think it is how my sports teams have played rather than COVID that has me drinking more beer this past year!
