Mat Latos

[sontensei]

Rumors abound about this guy lately, looking at this stats he doesn't seem that great this year but he did good for Cincy. I guess he would be a better option at 5th starter than what we have now. Does this seem like the type of modest move the FO would do to you guys? They wont overpay for a rental, but this guy prolly wont require an overpay at all? Thoughts?

He's a huge douchebag and his teammates hate him. Hard pass.

[Bobson Dugnutt]

Hard pass.

his skill level would have to be off the charts to counteract the douchiness.

Proven by the way he spells his first name.

The only real question is did that spelling make him a douche, or were his parents aware at the moment of birth that he was a douche, and thus gave him a douchey name.

But what if we included cash in the deal?

I bet his parents are also douches, and they never even had a conversation about spelling it Matt.

From Wikipedia: "The couple own a cat, named Cat Latos."

 

That right there trumps everything else that you guys are saying. We have to get this guy.

[Tryptamine]

 

I would be less than thrilled.

[ARCubsFan]

Cubs aren't going for a rental

[Guest]

He's not my favorite target, but as a low cost upgrade they could do worse. He'd be making what, 10, 11 starts? Not a lot of time to ruin the clubhouse, and unless someone gets hurt I don't think he even makes the playoff roster.

[sontensei]

When you put it that way, if he can be had pretty cheap it sure looks alot better than

 

Wada

Wood

Pimental

P. Johnson

for the rest of the season.

 

At least the guy has been lights out on occasion over the course of his career. and he actually has really good splits at wrigley..

What if he infects Bryant or Schwarber with his douchiness? What then, Mr Tiger?

[Guest]

He probably get punched by Rizzo and Bryant as soon as he walked in the clubhouse

Hmmm. See this is why it's so important to vaccinate.
