8/24 Improvings (beard guy) @ Basically Kentucky (Ray Romano) @ 6:10 on csn

[Schwarber Fan]

Lol @ Thom. Total silence on that homer.

Sealboy conducting the HR interview for Happ, I can't deny it anymore I'm a Sealboy fan

[UMFan83]

One more Happ HR and we will have 6 guys with 20+ HRs

The Cubs wouldn't miss Bryant at all.

 

For your pregame reading pleasure KB has been historically unclutch. I am now going to find FlyTheW and join his cult.

 

2 year anniversary of his last high leverage hit.

 

 

That's probably our best ever win vs the Indians.

[Brian]

I'm thinking that Jake is going to bust out a dong tonight

[TMan92]

I didn't think I would get there but I am starting to get on the re-sign Arrieta train with the lack of free agents and our need for pitching.

He's gonna have to back off his demand for Kershaw money. If he wants 6 years $150m or something I'd consider it

[Brian]

Is Jake going to show Rich how it's done?

[BigSlick]

Let's go Jake perfect game with 18 Ks woop

jake is good again but no horsefeathering way am i committing 6/150 to him good god

[UMFan83]

Did you know....Jake Arrieta currently has the 13th best qualified ERA in baseball?

[Cubswin11]

5/110 is the highest I'd go and that's even pushing it

[UMFan83]

I'm awful at determining value. Sounded like $25m a year wasn't a ton for an ace caliber pitcher but obviously age is a factor

[CyHawk_Cub]

4/$90m w/ a vesting option is the most I could go for Jake.

[Brian]

Tommy would have had that no problem : (

[Sammy Sofa]

4/$90m w/ a vesting option is the most I could go for Jake.

 

Yeah, something along those lines; he'd be horsefeathering 32 in the first year of that deal.

I'd go 3/$75 with a 4th year vesting option similar to Verlanders (top 5 in Cy Young)

Man, the strike zone Votto gets is so frustrating.

[Omar]

Man, the strike zone Votto gets is so frustrating.

remember the K-zone Barry Bonds got?

[UMFan83]

We have a contender for worst called pitch of the year

[Brian]

Javy is Mr. Clutch

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Javy.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

[Aaron_Kennelly]
