4/15 Cubs (Hammel) @ Yankees (Tanaka) - 6:05 pm (CT) CSN

[jersey cubs fan]

I think out.

This Tanaka guy is pretty good. We were valued at $1.2 billion last year and made $266 million in revenue. We should probably make a splash and sign him.

A lot of pitchers have looked good against the Cubs.

This...this is just a terrible, terrible post.

[Schwarber Fan]

I'm willing to tip the cap to Tanaka, but certain guys have had some pretty brutal ABs today.

Holy [expletive], what was up with the hilarious butt rock all over that commercial for the NHL playoffs? Hockey is the worssssssssssst.

This man. He is wise.

[gscool89]

Well Hammel was good again. He really wants to get out of here by July.

[expletive], I can't find it online. I actually walked back into the room to see what the hell was on it sounded so bad.

I'm already excited for the two B-level prospects we'll get for him.

Tanaka gives up 1 in 8 innings and strikes out 13 and Kyle has another meltdown

We're getting close. Doubt he gives up a run though.

[Sammy Sofa]

Hey, at last they tried to sign Tanaka. That's kinda exciting or something.

[Sammy Sofa]

I mean, he's a good young pitcher in a barren FA pitching market who would have only cost them money and none of their precious, precious prospects. You totally don't have to go all out for a guy like that.

[abuck1220]

he's no dan haren, that's for sure.

Traded striking out the side once for no runs allowed.

[Schwarber Fan]

He wasn't coming to Chicago. You all know it.

Ricketts is just waiting for that rooftop situation to settle and pretend he has no money to spend. Outside of the fact that the Cubs were the 4th most profitable team in baseball last year.

[Sammy Sofa]

It's true; few realize the honor of spending time in the middle of a multi-season rebuild. They are fools, I say...FOOLS. The character they won't build...you can't replace that with money and victories.

[Guest]

you can't replace that with money and victories.

 

He'll get the former but not much of the latter.

[Sammy Sofa]

STRONGLY disagree. The Yankees are never going to wallow in bad baseball for long.

[gscool89]

It must be nice for the long-suffering Yankee fans to see a pitcher of Tanaka's stature.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I'm going to love it when the Yankees win 2 of the next 7 WS and the Astros suck forever.

[Sammy Sofa]

Did Theo make the trip? Is he in disguise? Is he a gorilla again?

[Sammy Sofa]

Oh yeah, that Ellsbury guy, too.

They're going to wallow in mediocre baseball for very long.
