  1. sacks drunk. one out. Dansby do not hit the ball on the ground.
  2. Plaencia is not going to be around long unless he can throw strikes,
  3. Sorry everyone for saying this, I am a sucker for pink finger nails
  4. People have said that since it was the Big Two Little Eight in the Big 10. Now it's the Big 3.5 little 14.5 or whatever. There are about 6 teams every year that are on the same level more or less. Out of those six, it's the same 3 or 4. It's not just about talent. Dion can get an entire team of 5 stars and he won't be the top team. There will always be pop ups and surprises every year, but college football does not have 12 teams you can put into a pot and expect an unusual outcome.
  5. and yikes. Kyle is going to take some lumps this game. No one up in the pen
  6. Also, Paredes has some type of injury he's been playing through for awhile.
  7. Kyle in trouble already. I feel bad for him, but he's done.
  8. MLB players are amazing. How they can hit a 100MPH ball with a tail is quite something.
  9. Iowa Cubs now using ghosts. Bold strategy, Cotton.
  10. Palencia was recalled, Neely was sent down. A fresh arm, hopefully he can throw strikes
  11. FSU probably should have gotten in based on merit to that point. The only thing the new system has in place that is better than the old is the conference champions get in. But we all know FSU would have gotten destroyed by any of the other three teams.
  12. As Counsell and the Boss have said, you have to prove it all night. Caissie has proven 1) he's got a super quick bat. 2) strikeouts are a big part of his game. I see more Dave Kingman than I do Aaron Judge. Not bad, but certainly not a star. That said, the Cubs desperately need slugging and Caissie provides that. The Shaw/Happ comparison doesn't hold for me. I think if Happ hit only lefthanded he'd have more power numbers. I think Shaw has much better bat-to-ball skills, but he's closer to Nico than Happ as a hitter profile. Anyway, it's a good time to be a prospect watcher and Cubs fan. We all remember the Tyler Colvin and Dunedin express hitter of the Hendry years.
  13. Besides the WAR argument, Judge might win the triple crown. I know old-timey numbers and all, but it's rare, special, and valuable. Miggy did it in 2012 and before that, it was 1967.
