[Schwarber Fan]

Just call up Rizzo already

Over/under until Aramis Fan starts complaining about Rizzo?

i'd put it at 5 games, and definitely take the under

[Schwarber Fan]

Of all the obnoxious things I'm notorious for, overreacting about the young guys isn't one of them. Go ahead and try to find examples, Nuts.

Posting in what might be the deadest game thread ever.

 

Also, I just saw Miley's stats. WTF?

[Tryptamine]

Same thing every time lately; Garza is just way to easy to rattle.

[Careless]

Wow, Barney power. Missed the homer by inches. Maybe 4" higher and it's out.

[Fro]

I think we're due for one of these fake rallies to be real. Maybe tie it up and lose it in the 11th.

[Little Slide Rooter]

7 IP 5 H 3 ER 1/7 BB/K is nothing to hang your head over, but with the Cubs offense behind you, more often than not it's good for an L. At least Soriano added a TVHR.

Is four posts during a game a record? And is there a big difference between #1 and 2 in next year's draft?

From what I've seen so far it's going to be similar to this years draft, there will probably be a hand full of guys who you could take #1 with no clear front runner.

Yes, because of the difference in slot money.

there was also at least one september game during the past couple of years that didn't even HAVE a game thread.

It could be that my memory is playing tricks on me after all these years, but I believe at this time in 2000, Prior was an interesting high first-round college arm, but not a once-in-a-decade prospect. Everyone on the old Prospero boards was hoping to see the Cubs get the top pick and take Teixeira.

The player you get at one may not be different than the guy you get at five, but the extra money from the higher pick could go towards other first round talents that fell due to bonus demands. I definitely want the first pick.

The vast majority of drafts, the player you get at one is *way* better than the player you get at five.

[davell]

Normally, I agree with that. But this past draft didn't turn out that way and from the extremely early looks of things, next year's won't either.

It's just way too early to tell, as Kyle points out 2 posts ago. The high school showcases are just starting.

[davell]

Yeah, my main point is it's a win-win. Either you get the clear cut best player or you can play it the way Houston did and wind up with extra top end talents. Personally, I hope some pitcher comes out and becomes another Dylan Bundy.
