  1. Theory: Not having an injury thread is more of jinx than having one.
  2. it begins [tweet] [/tweet]
  3. [tweet] [/tweet] Borzello seems like a guy that might get poached soon.
  4. Yeah I mentioned that basically the other day. With Rosenthal’s stuff the last ~24 hours, Levine admitting on the radio today they are clueless and now Kap’s tweet. It doesn’t seem like anyone knows what the hell is going on and at the least we probably can take comfort in those “Cubs have no money” articles early on are probably baseless and them just making dumb guesses. What was Rosenthal saying again? Nothing really, it amounts to he thinks the Cubs are going to do something. I posted it in the main Cubs transaction thread
  5. Yeah, that definitely didn't come out of nowhere. It was discussed for a while. i mean from the media, particularly the local media, and mostly prior to the winter meetings. it picked up steam right around this time that year. http://www.northsidebaseball.com/archive/viewtopic.php?p=3319208#p3319208 Yeah I think i'm just remembering my surprise that he actually signed with the Cubs, because that thread you posted about the Cubs looking into himfor CF seems familiar.
  6. i believe the math for the Sox signing Harper is exactly this Harper's number 1 consideration being signing the biggest contract offered + Sox offering the biggest contract I don't see either of those ending up happening.
  7. I think I must be remembering wrong, but in my mind I got a push notification on my phone that he was signed and had no idea they were even in the mix. A couple of weeks ago I even looked for the thread to try and confirm that but couldn't find it.
  8. There's also the possibility that he doesn't want to have to do that.
  9. Lester Hendricks Darvish Quintana Hamels
  10. Here's Ken Rosenthal skyping Smoltz from his bedroom to tell you that he thinks the Cubs will respond to the Goldschmidt move, it may be small it may be large, it may be one move it may be a couple... they also would have done this without the Goldschmidt move. [tweet] [/tweet]
  11. Also if they're handing out money to improve Wrigleyville, I know a guy... http://content.sny.tv/assets/images/4/0/8/284076408/cuts/750x422/cut.jpg
  12. It should be called Rickettsville soon, or are we already there?
  13. Cubs taking aim at ousting Tunney, also interestingly they are funding an employees campaign in the ward northwest of Wrigleyville. https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-met-ricketts-family-44th-ward-20181108-story.html
  14. That is not a very positive article.
  15. are we just going to gloss over the fact that the White Sox big gun in wooing Harper is JIM THOME?
  16. RIP home run apple
  17. The article from The Athletic today about this really swung me from there was no reason not to let him finish the season to he had to go now.
  18. feels like it's been about 3 years since the wild card game
  19. [tweet] [/tweet]
  20. This is an opinion article only, but its about why the Cubs could and should sign Harper so its nice to look at https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/2018/12/03/bryce-harper-cubs-free-agency/2191750002/
  21. As far as we know. He denied the allegations from the beginning. My guess is, if he lied about it or went back on it, the Cubs wouldn’t be sticking behind him. Remember, there’s is information out there that you’re never going to see. Did you read his statement? He's not going to a therapist multiple days a week because he did nothing wrong.
  22. Well if he thinks he's the guy, maybe he is. [tweet] [/tweet]
  23. even my dad has mostly checked out on the Bulls, and he's retired and the alternative for him is watching house remodeling shows.
