    So we have Taylor Swift vs. Brock Purdy in the Super Bowl this year. Who ya got? What will you bet on? What are some of the more outrageous prop bets this year? Gambling is not allowed in Alabama so I will not be betting. If I were, I'd bet on KC and take the points.

    At least he was nice about the Cubs players.

    They probably spend a few days more at home than on the road with off days and when they play the White Sox.

    No team in the Central wants to win this year, maybe the Reds by default.

    My son wants them on the Warriors.

    Baseball is an individual sport played by multiple people at the same time. Although these guys are usually type A super competitive, they also want to make as much as they can for as long as they can. Most are not qualified to do anything else and know once their playing days are over, life begins. They all want to win, but it’s a job first.

    I wonder if they have deal to release him after ST is over if he doesn’t make the team. This seems like one of those situations where he trying to get healthy and it costs the Cubs nothing to let him hangout for six weeks

    With this group who could blame him. They’re in the almost the same position they were in 4 years ago. The only thing that’s changed is the last name of the GM.

    I believe if they can get Bellinger on a 5 year deal they will do it. I still believe it’s not the dollars that are bothering Jed, it’s the years.

    defensive metrics and systems have come a long way, but their still not all that great. However, his defense is pretty good by all the metrics and they take into account what you are getting at. His unorthodox throwing style is offputting but he's been a solid defender at 3rd base both from an eye test (except throwing) and measurement.

    The Cubs will be playing baseball this month!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    better watch out, that's a BJ Murry signal type post from Tom

    For how many games? I'm betting he plays less than 70 games.

    i figured Rucker would be the man without a chair.

    I saw a story on the Rockies moving Bryant to 1st. Sorry, not about the Cubs, but interesting nonetheless.

    Take it on the run, baby!

    It's best to think of them not as accurate or even likely but in the ballpark. The problem (if you can call it that) is that people like us and even actually some of us treat them like gospel, which they are not. From a rough perspective, they present a reasonable approximation of what could happen, but no one is going to get rich using them to bet on a player-by-player basis.

    If the Bears come out of the gate and win two in a row they will forget who Fields was.

    Could be a good thing, but also too many cooks. I don't know enough about the complications of NFL offense, but the game is simple, regardless of how it is dressed up.
  20. CubinNY
    I think he's as much a DFA candidate as he is a potential starter.
  21. CubinNY
    It's not that easy. It's as much a logistics problem as it is anything else. If they pay a multi-year salary for a guy who is declining and give him a NTC, he's set in concrete. Even if they don't give him a NTC, his salary may be unmovable. Then they have an old team that is not improvable.

    The Carlye Group is buying the Orioles for real. Private Equity taking a bite out of the MLB.
  23. CubinNY
    How do you know how worse of a QB he thinks Fields is? Replaceable is the bottom bin, the rest is a different flavor of suck that you want to argue about. That's where Fields resides.
  24. CubinNY
    Luis Vazques, Christian Franklin, Yohenderic Pinango, Brennen Davis (who I have not given up on), and a bunch of young promising pitchers who will be knocking on the door a year from now. Edit: I forgot Pablo Alliendo

    Petition to forever change the name to Dick Lovelady because, giggles.
