Time To Enjoy Two Crazy Chicago Cubs Walk-Offs From 2021



 Since not much is happening in the Cubs world besides Cubs pitchers having a deadlifting competition and Cubs fans singing carols with the purpose of bringing Correa to the Cubs:


And Correa responded and wished Cubs fans a Happy Holidays:

 

So, besides that, not much has been happening, so it's time to go back and remember two crazy Cubs walk-offs from 2021.

1. Ian Happ Walks-Off On a Pop-Up

This was pretty crazy and also pretty stupid, but they were playing the Pirates, and when you're playing a team like that, things like this happen.



Of course, Jomboy had a pretty good breakdown of this play, but it's a pretty crazy moment and I'm glad it happened...and in the Cubs' favor.

2. Javier Baez Walks It Off Verses Amir Garrett

If you know anything about intra-divisional teams, it's that they have rivalries. The case is here with AG and El Mago, who have been chawing at each other for quite a while.



But, it worked out in Javy's favor and the Cubs got the win and the sweep verses one of their big rivals. 

I hope you enjoyed these flash-back moments, and if you have any other favorite Cubs moments from 2021, make sure you comment it below!

Articles Coming Again to Cubbies Gazette?

It's been awhile Cubs fans. I've been pretty active on Twitter, so if you haven't yet, give me a follow there. There's plenty of Cubs blogs out there, with my personal favorite being Bleacher Nation. So I don't intend to just repeat or say the same things others are saying, but I want to provide my thoughts on certain things that might differ or be new to Cubs fans.  Basically, I want to write brief articles on different Cubs related topics that might be new or original. This is just a hobby for me, so don't expect articles every single day. I'll also be sharing some thoughts of others from Twitter that I found interesting. If you're interested in writing for Cubbies Gazette, DM me on Twitter or email me at cubbiesgazette@gmail.com. Thanks for all of your support on Twitter, and as always, GO CUBS GO!

Top Defensive Shortstop Trade Options for the Cubs

  Yep. I want Carlos Correa too. He's a great defensive and offensive player that would add a lot to the Cubs. I hate to burst your bubble, but it's not a guarantee that he's signing with the Cubs. They may be the front runners for him, but with the new CBA contract in the future, and the price...it's still not a given that the Cubs will get Correa. So, as a backup, I made a list of some of the top defensive shortstops in the league who could be possible trade options for the Cubs if they don't get Correa. 1. Nicky Lopez Lopez was the top defensive shortstop in 2021, having a 24 OAA (Outs Above Average) according to Statcast. That was not only the great thing about Lopez in 2021. He had a .300/.365/.378 with a 106 wRC+ and a 4.4 WAR. He had a low 13.1% K rate and a good 8.7% BB rate. Although he never hits the ball hard, and his 26.9% HardH rate is in the bottom 3% of the league, his success is obvious.  His 2021 season was the first time in his three-year MLB caree...
