  1. Cubs doing Cubs things in the bottom of the 1st.
  2. whatever they do has to coincide with an automatic strike zone.
  3. I agree. I may be buying into the hype, but if the DL and OL are only a little better and Williams is as good as he appears they have really good team. The standard deviation of talent is so bunched up in the NFL it only takes a true difference maker to turn a team.
  4. Very well put. They are running a mid market team with top 5 revenue and paying premium prices to do it. They have what they want to keep Wrigley and their fancy Motel 6 full of out-of-towners. If they hit on some prospects and positive variance they may win another WS.
  5. To whoever said is Cleveland really good? Yes, yes they are. They are tied for the best record in baseball. That makes them a good team.
  6. Does this mean they are going to let him be a two way player?
  7. yes, at first it seems preposterous, but after reading the article there is some sense to it. I know TT was all about the double hook. That's not a bad idea if a team wants to yank a pitcher. But also, do everything- Automatic strike zone, lower the mound or move it back, double hook. Just do it all.
  8. Soto is on such a heater his grandchildren's grandchildren will be rich.
  9. Merryweather carried a gas can on the mound with him.
  10. It's a pretty strong 30 IMO. I wish there were one or two more mashers. The Cubs have a lot of bat-to-ball types. I suppose the Hendry days of Dopirak et al. produced nothing so I get it.
  11. Your argument has no merit. It does not matter. They are inaccurate. There is technology to correct it.
  12. testing "the Cubs don't get swept" theory.
  13. Brett reported a blurb from 670 that said that Caissie may be a September call up!
  14. Please tell me there is no chance that Jones makes the team.
  15. Cleveland is the least athletic looking bunch of good baseball players in MLB. They look like a bunch of beer league softball players.
  16. Jesus Christ on a stick I’m sick of these umpires
  17. Assad getting dinked and dunked to death
  18. the toughest lesson was that the umpires are painfully inconsistent and the worst possible time. There is no reason for this given the technology available. The game changed on the blown strike three call. I know "it's part of the game" and teams have to be able to overcome bad calls. But it doesn't have to be this way.
  19. No. I just love those places and the Alps. If it weren't so damn expensive I'd retire in Switzerland.
  20. One of the most beautiful places in the world. Salzberg, Lugano, and Cortina are three of my favorite places in Europe.
