Silly idea to bring Schwarber in at this point.

I'm with you on this. He literally missed the entire season. I think I'd rather use Contreras and Soler as the DHs.

Most importantly, the Indians starters are all RH's.

Watched it all.
He's welcome to come sit in the dugout and cheer but to put him on the roster after missing the entire season is cray-cray. Hasn't faced a ML pitcher since April.
I will pass

You real a lot into that/ NOt questioning anyone.
Offering MY opinion. Almost every Cubs fan i've talked to says the same.

That's odd, every Cub fan I know is on Cloud 9.
I'll side with Theo. He better than anyone who's ever done this. He's Billy Beane with Brian Cashman's checkbook.

Did just fine facing MLB pitching for the first time last yeasr when he was called up. First two games against the Indians no less he was 6-9 with a HR, triple and 4 RBI's. I think he will be just fine.
I love the move, don't think it will hurt at all and can you imagine the lift this team will get if he sends a bomb over the fence? The guy is an extremely talented ball player, who competes at the highest level. I see this working out very well for the Cubbies.

Where's the odd part? Every fan i know is crazy excited as well, but thinks KS is not really a smart move. If he makes the WS roster, i hope to be proven wrong.

You mean when he played every day at a higher level than the Fall league and had seen pitches from MLB pitchers?
END OF THE DAY
GO CUBS

It's odd that every one of my friends think it's a good move and most of the people you have talked to think the opposite. That's all. Not saying you're wrong. I can see the cons. That big lefty power for possibly four games in Cleveland means a lot considering the Indians starters are all RH's and Rizzo is their only big bat from that side.

I will take KS if they leave off Justin Grimm.

Oh man, that's pretty funny.
Cbs and Washington post did the same thing. And they wonder why we hate all things cubs.

Because it's the Cubs fault these guys can't do their job? Seems justified.

It's silly, but it's true that Cubs fans don't (mostly) care about Sox wins, and vice-versa. But both of them likely follow the Bulls, Bears, and Blackhawks (mostly).

Yep. I think it was both a mistake and understandable.

Screw him. He ain't no Sox fan. He thinks we play in Kaminskey. Dudes a Doyer or Halo fan from his early days on Oahu's tough southside.

Schwarber batting 5th and Heyward was left off the roster.
