One of my favorite NSB posts ever was during the year Javy laid waste to AA and was universally regarded as a top 5 prospect. There was a discussion about trading for Giancarlo Stanton and someone said something like "you could put him in the middle of the Cubs order with KB and Javy. You'd have three Stantons and one of them is Stanton!"

 

Wellllllllllllllllllllllllll let's get back to dreamin big boys

Not on any crazy trade scenarios of course. Just on the 2 guys who are on the Cubs. One who's already better than Stanton and the other who is making right handed playoff pitching his gif fodder.

Am I the only ne who doesn't think Rizzo finds Baez's antics particularly cute these past two games. Ya, you can yuck it up after hte out, be he sure fired a ball in his gut wte 2 games ago, and i tt seemed like a WTF are you doing moment tonight? Javy is g oing to Javy, but no need to Javy like that.It helps build that Javy lore, but imagine if Rizzo drops something becaue of that . That said, don't change Javy

yeah, after Rizzo talked about how he messes with the other IF's on popups & such, I strongly doubt it is an isue.

Like I said, i hope Baez continues to Baez, but to my eye Rizzo didn't look too happy (especially not the one in Game 5) ntil it ended an an out. Wasn't Baez the one who mirrored a Russell throw from SS too last year? I'm sure Rizzo appreciattes Javy, but its not really the time to get cute , hence he can laugh when the out is made.

Man, seeing Javy's face in the post-game interview with the FS1 crew really hit me in the feels. He was so freaking happy. Everyone else seemed more what I would describe as excited or pumped-up. But Javy was full of joy. That smile he had on his face... fantastic. With everything he's gone through, both in baseball and with personal tragedies, I'm just so happy to see him experience that.

I'm sure plenty of other teams fans can't stand the guy, but he's just so damned earnest. He's not cocky so much as he just loves what he does and he's basically amazing himself half the time.

Yea, love the dude, and was basically just thinking about him and his sister the whole time and how much she would have loved watching him tear horsefeathers up on way to being the LCS MVP.

Maybe you missed the earlier post where i said I hope Baez contines to be Baez. I honestly thought Rizzo looked upset. But hey, i must hate Castro and even Aramais when they were here

Lovable Starlin mirrored a Bryant throw to Rizzo.
