8/5 Cubs (Wood) @ Rockies (Anderson), 7:40 CST, CSN+

[Guest]

I haven't been this hyped about a Cubs debut since Prio----- damn it.

 

Baez is in my top three most excited debuts:

 

Prior, Wood, Baez, Rizzo, Castro in that order.

lineup yet??

 

Baez not starting!!

[Guancous]

Prediction: Javy Baez will be a better hitter and a worse defender than Darwin Barney.

Given that Barney only had two seasons where he played wow defense I like those odds.

I want JAVY and Castro flipped ASAP.

 

And this "Javi" [expletive] sounds like some dork you'd meet at the smelliest European youth hostel.

That top four of the lineup makes my heart smile.

[Sammy Sofa]

Don't be so shy, Javy. Out-Puig Puig.

[Sammy Sofa]

Kaplan briefly on the verge of climbing over the desk to mount Hollandsworth right then and there.

I don't care if he strikes out 5 times on just 15 pitches; just quicker to get that out of the way and a step towards starting next year with beast mode Javy and Soler.

I'm not re-reading the whole thread. What is this Javi stuff?

[kujay]

Yup, broke down and went to in-laws. My sacrifice for you Javi.

[Clem Fandango]

And this "Javi" [expletive] sounds like some dork you'd meet at the smelliest European youth hostel.

 

I agree. He spells his name with a "y" in his Twitter handle. He's Javy until he says otherwise (i.e. Mike/Giancarlo Stanton).

 

Also this is based off that image. Is there any proof he even wrote that? And for that matter, who the [expletive] let him tag his name on the dugout wall? INB4 "He does whatever the [expletive] he wants"

[Hairyducked Idiot]

TIL: Javier has its etymological roots in "savior"

[Clem Fandango]

Because the image in David's sig he's sitting next to his named spelled "Javi" even though there's no proof he actually did that or calls himself that
