Chicago is home. Used to write about the Cubs, but currently just posting about them. 🏳️🌈

I want to hear from the bettors who think the Rapture will come AND that Polymarket will still be paying out bets in the aftermath

Cubs have placed lefty Shota Imanaga on the 15-day IL due to his left hamstring strain.
Gavin Hollowell recalled from Iowa to give bullpen an extra arm. TBD how Cubs handle the rotation. With off-day Thursday, Cubs have some rotation schedule flexibility and could delay the decision, in theory.

Pete Crow-Armstrong is 23 years, 39 days old.
The Chicago Cubs have 34 players that have taken an at-bat for one of their full-season minor league teams that are OLDER than PCA.
Just 23 of their prospects at full-season teams are YOUNGER than PCA.

Something I’m really excited about but haven’t talked about AT ALL is that I’ve been commissioned to write a feature article for a major writing publication about why poets love baseball and what draws writers to the game. I’ve been diligently revising and it’s coming together!!

Imagine basing so much of your public identity on your adult conversion to Catholicism, only to be publicly dismissed by the actual Catholic hierarchy.

Justin Steele is getting 2nd opinion on MRI results of left elbow, Counsell says. This is 3x Steele’s dealt with elbow tendinitis since July.
Counsell wouldn’t speculate how long Steele might be sidelined/possible severity: “There’s no decisions right now. Justin wants to get all the information.”

Is it good to get 5 scoreless from your starter and end up surrendering 10 runs?

It's very on brand for Marquee to be showing a hearing aid commercial instead of any pre-game coverage before the first game of the year.

Once again, it was not a mistake by Kamala Harris to stand together with Liz Cheney in the 2024 election. It's neither Harris' nor Cheney's nor the Democrats fault that the entire rest of the GOP has collapsed into far right authoritarianism & the Romneys & Murkowskis & GWBs are cowards.
History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for.

This is such a great move, truly. The Cubs haven’t had a legitimately competent bat who wasn’t expected to start every single day in quite a while.
The Cubs have signed Justin Turner, per @michael-cerami.bsky.social.

Genuinely moronic piece, but emblematic of why so many "contrarian" and "dissident" writers have secumbed to Trumpism; the entire thing just oozes with contempt for the idea of defending existing institutions.
Civil service and public servants are worth defending. Ken is just a contrarian loser.
