Cubs sign Manny Ramirez to be player/coach at Iowa

I know we're frustrated. Desperation has crept in. But is there even a single study out there that shows a positive effect on a baseball team, by introducing the [expletive] Sumo culture?

 

I question the bat speed needed and while obvious, I guess it needs to be said- They'll clog up the base paths if by some chance they ever get on.

 

Sammy the sofa needs to be introduced as some other type of furniture altogether, in my opinion.

 

No way; think of all the spare change he has laying around. That should be incentive enough for Ricketts to bring him back.

That's what Hammel is here for. He's getting dealt for 3 years of fully stocked sodas for the players.

If he were inserted into the Cubs lineup today - which Cubs OF would Manny not out produce?

MAYBE Lake. And Bonefocio when he plays CF. We need to trade Barney.

 

1B Rizzo

2B Valbuena

SS Castro

3B Olt

LF Manny

CF Bonefocio

RF Lake

 

Would be a huge improvement. I'm joking of course but that's how terrible our OF is.

You guys do know Manny is done as a player right? He's put up around a .700 OPS in the PCL the last two years.

All of them, including the OF the Cubs currently have in Iowa.
