    It’s an opinion, so what is there to argue about. The objective facts are what they are. You put attribution on a thing that some other guy doesn’t. And some other guy points out something you don’t think is as important. Who gives a a tiny turd whether Murray is ranked 8 or 18? It doesn’t matter. Rankings are ordinal measures with extremely loose objective anchors. You’re getting worked up because people don’t share your sentiment about what position in line a guy should be.

    Staying out of the middle of the strike zone. I said before the game started he’s the kind of pitcher that gives the Cubs fits.

    Belli has the formula down. If they pitch away go away with contact. If they come inside hammer.

    I would say he came in fat and out of shape (which he did), but he had a great spring. As soon as they came North he sucked eggs.

    Happer gets one back. Boog sounds almost as happy as when Yellich hit his.

    The definition of shitting the bed

    Barf

    Can we start over please?

    horsefeathers Christ

    I’m getting hyped! Hopefully Swanson can pull himself out his funk

    Ok, Fields plays great, (200 yds passing, 2 TD, 0 INT 18-25), but the Bears lose a close one at the end. How do you feel about the game?
  12. CubinNY
    Yes, me too. Mostly because it will be a good measuring stick for the rest of the year. I think the Cubs are a better team, but I'm not sure if they will stand up due to the pitching.
  13. CubinNY
    I know Kyle posted about Fields. I think equally, almost, is what kind of team have they built, can they build? I think the jury is still very much out there.

    horsefeathers the Brewers. They aren't horsefeathers. Wade Miley is just the type of pitcher to give the Cubs fits.
  15. CubinNY
    So much for that.
  16. CubinNY
    Nice start.
  17. CubinNY
    horsefeathers yea! The Cubs found another starter.
  18. CubinNY
    YMMV
  19. CubinNY
    wrong.
  20. CubinNY
    Mervis would be a better fit if that is the criteria
  21. CubinNY
    Just thinking about it though, Alcantara would be a somewhat humors trade. The 2nd time he was traded for an aging 1stB who was the face of the franchise and would be going back to NYC albeit for the other team. Sort of a bookend deal.
  22. CubinNY
    It's all speculation. We shall see.
  23. CubinNY
    Makes no sense to you. Makes plenty of sense to Cohn and their front office. He's a guy who by the end of his career will be close to 500 HRs if not over. He's the face of their franchise and a fan favorite. Cohn obviously does not care about the dollars. So, trading for him is going to require some pain. I also assume if they traded for him, they would work out an extension with him, because the price for a rental isn't going to cut it for the Mets or the Cubs or probably most other teams who are smart.
  24. CubinNY
    They will keep him then.
  25. CubinNY
    Alonso is going to tank HRs well into his mid to late 30s. I'm not particularly keen on giving up Alcantara for him. I'd bet the Mets want significantly more than that. If Jed trades for him, I'm going to be mostly happy, but they will likely be doing significant damage to the farm. I suspect the Mets would want more pitching than hitting though.
