    Who are they going to replace him with? It's not trading him that is the main problem, it's replacing him. Especially, on a team that is absent talent.

    As we have seen, that's much easier said than done. It's stupidity draped in 3-dimensional chess.

    They already cut a bunch of teams, I'm not sure how much more they could realistically chop. (Not that they might not try.) They could not have set out a better to plan to kill baseball if they tried. Naked greed.

    I'm a little bit late on this thread, but why in Jah's name would the Cubs be interested in trading Willson Contreras if they say they plan to be competitive soon? The only way I could squint and see it is if they got a cheaper version of him in return. If they trade him they are tacitly admitting that they have no plans to compete any season soon.

    The name and photo absolutely scream Vanderbilt.

    Is errors a good way to judge a 17 year old playing SS? We don't even know the field conditions. It isn't like these are even minor league quality ball fields.
  7. CubinNY
    Yes, baseball is an everyday grind where the season matters, having a bunch of mediocre teams in a playoff is not good.

    Michigan Nebraska, first team to 17 wins.

    Hoyer sounds a lot like our old pal Jim Hendry. I'm waiting for the, "compete within the division" quote.

    How can you hate the Dodgers? They are the smartest organization in baseball and go and get the pieces to stay at the top of the standings every year. I would love an ownership group and front office like the Dodgers.

    They'll be fine if they win out. It was very early in the season and Oregon will finish with a decent resume. Ohio State has recovered from early non-conference losses to make the playoffs before and they still have games left against Penn State, Michigan State and Michigan to fatten up their resume. I guess the key is 'if they win out'. They've looked a lot better of late and maybe are putting it together but they looked really shaky the first few weeks of the season so we'll see. It would help if Big Blue would start doing its job in their biggest annual game, but... Michigan needs a quarterback

    Can’t. Manage. A. pitching. staff.

    It is hard to take a "wait and see" attitude with this ownership, but all things being equal, the Cubs are in a good position to nab talent and get right back into contention in a very mediocre division.
  14. CubinNY
    You and I both know very well that the Cardinals are somehow going to end up winning the WS. That franchise is just blessed that way. Seriously. They have easily the worst team to ever win it (06), maybe the 2nd-worst (11) and if they hadn't gagged a 3-1 lead to SF in 12, they'd probably have won that year too with a playoff spot that had never existed before the season. This is what they do. The 2011 team was blessed by playing against the worst-managed team to ever appear in a WS.

    Sabotage is the offensive scheme?
  16. CubinNY
    It sounds like the Cubs are targeting the types of players who wind up signing contracts in January. It could be a very long offseason.
  17. CubinNY
    I've seen enough.
  18. CubinNY
    horsefeathering losers.
  19. CubinNY
    Bote needs to shave that birds nest.
  20. CubinNY
    This is a big, big series for our C0bs. I'm fired up and I know you are too. Let's sweep this series.
  21. CubinNY
    Yeah, he's the real deal.
  22. CubinNY
    To say Triantos is a positionless less prospect is laughable.
  23. CubinNY
    I'm not sure anyone here is paying attention, but Hendricks fade in the second half has me concerned. He's probably not worth trading, but probably not going to give the same production moving forward. The Cubs have a lot of holes to fill in starting pitching.
  24. CubinNY
    Hopefully, we never hear from or about him again for the rest of his life. He can go live his life in obscurity.
  25. CubinNY
    It would hurt less if they would have resigned Nick like they should have.
