Random Cubs Musings: Minor League Edition

Lol I love how the little [expletive] even tried to leave himself a way out. Kyle you suck and your opinions are like sweetchuck from the police academy movies.

 

I haven't seen those. Was he a guy who was right all the time? Because I was dead right in every one of those posts.

 

Nah. The fact that it is happening doesn't mean you were wrong about 5%, but you were still wrong about 5%.

*shrug* If anyone thought it was more than remotely likely that Soler 1.400 OPSed all over AA in his first shot at it, then :hello: .

 

I wonder how much he's going to play. Is this a chance to look around a big-league dugout and watch the veterans, or is he auditioning for a starting job on Opening Day 2015.

 

If it's the latter, then we seriously might see the mythical All-Homegrown Lineup

Well, I realize the nature of a September call up is a *little* different, but Hoyer said just yesterday that they aren't calling up their prospects to not play.

Whatever defensive arrangement you want to put them in: Rizzo, Castro, Alcantara, Castillo, Soler, Baez, Bryant. That's seven by late April, although I could see Castillo being replaced in the offseason.

 

We're one short of the Dream Scenario (not necessarily my dream, Theo's dream).

Rizzo gets an asterisk. For Theo, it'll be like Tiger's grand slam.

That's 6 unless Castro got cloned or you meant Russell.

 

It's pretty crazy. I've been wanting a veteran power hitter (Nelson Cruz mainly) for the last 2 years and was really hoping for one this offseason. But we've officially reached the point where a FA would literally block someone very much worthwhile from coming up next year.

I was just thinking about how dated we are all getting. The NSBB demographic fits a pretty narrow band.

[A New Era]

No doubt. Hopefully we can look back at the time when all the rebuild plans started turning things around.

Realized that after I posted.

Yeah, the girl who cut my hair the other day didn't know what Magnum PI was and then I realized that she wasn't even close to alive in the 80's.

I was talking to a woman on a dating site who was on the low end of my 1/2age+7 rule and she wasn't even born when Seinfeld season 2 was running. That's when I noped out of dating sites.

[Sammy Sofa]

I thought everyone wanted a fat HR ogre. There's nothing more fun.

 

i'd rather have a bunch of athletic dudes who do everything well

 

Not fun, nerd.

Let's be honest, Kyle. You're not getting dated.

[Sammy Sofa]

I wonder what A New Era thought he was replying to up there.

Was thinking the same thing. "What? You don't know who Magnum PI is?" That's it! I'm done with women forever!

You were sitting on it for two days in 2014 and you are surprised you got scooped? Get your head in the game, Sahadev.
