It's Willson's turn

[jersey cubs fan]

Coomer said Ross might have suffered a concussion yesterday so I'm guessing that's the reason as predicted.

 

Concussion DL is only 7 days right?

Turns out he was discussing a concussion Ross suffered three years ago..., 4 runs scored during the story.

Does that mean we get to do the annoying Phish-inspired "WILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLSOOOOOOOOOON" chant like they did in DC?

If there's not 40,000 volleyballs at Wrigley tomorrow, its a missed opportunity. Edited June 16, 2016 by davell

I want to see what his pitch-framing looks like at the MLB level. I'm spoiled now and I never want to play with a fair strike zone ever again.

oh my god i swear i almost wrote that i thought this might be coming after i read that olney insider piece

 

yay

 

From that piece:

 

he reminds some evaluators of the Pirates' Francisco Cervelli, with his high energy

 

I comped him to Cervelli during the AFL for the same reason! A Phillies bullpen catcher agreed with me!

Have fun with that, TT.

Gotta love when even the most innocuous/general comment from somebody exposes that they have no idea what they're talking about.

#Source Theo just whispered to Jed that our Death Star is quite operational.

This is fun. I can't believe how much he's improved, to the point where he is now possibly a part of the core.

Ha...I don't know who that tntracer person is but they have me blocked. Weird.

And our long T-Fed Nightmare is over, too! Rejoice.

I assumed the 2nd L was a tribute to Phish.

Willson Contreras has been with the organization longer than anyone on the 40 man roster. If anyone cares. Which they probably don't.

Tommy is on the Score right now.

[UMFan83]

Boggles my mind that less than 2 years ago Contreras was finishing up his season season at High-A with a .679 OPS.

[davell]

Almora and Contreras. 2nd wave accomplished, Theo.

i am but then again my baser instincts kick in and i want to somehow field a team with 3 catcher-possible players who all rake...Willson Contreras / Kyle Schwarber / Mark Zagunis??

 

Lester & Hendricks would understand

[Tracer Bullet]

Let me get this straight

 

C - Contreras

1B - Rizzo

2B - Baez

SS - Russell

3B - Bryant

LF - Soler (Schwarbs next year)

CF - Almora

RF - Heyward

 

Rizzo is the oldest player on that list (by 1 day over JHey) at 26.

 

hahahahahahahahaha

[Tracer Bullet]

I know Zobrist and Fowler are both starters and have been awesome, but just run that lineup out there once a week or so just to remind everyone what's in store for the future.

(In Sandler voice) And now for the complete beat down of major league baseball......

[UMFan83]

Is this the last legit prospect acquired during the Hendry administration?
