    Lie about their sexuality and say they are gay. For credibility. If we really want them to be credible, the only solution is to turn "It Gets Better" into a combination of a support video and hardcore gay pornography.

    You may be right. Of course, this makes the decision to bring up Cashner and use him in relief last year look even more poor than it already had.

    Apparently he told Rizzo if his option wasn't picked up, he wasn't getting on the bus.

    Welcome to the board! Glad to have a fresh set of eyes on things.

    I don't generally pay all that much attention to the Futures game. Anybody know offhand if it's one of those "each team gets a representative" sort of deals like the MLB All-Star game?

    I just skimmed through the Dunn signing thread from this offseason. It was fun.

    On his own, I wouldn't be a big fan of Brenly either. But the interplay between him and Len is top notch.

    Castro has all the physical tools to stay at SS. His problems are mostly from footwork and decision making... two issues which I do not see as getting better as a result of moving to 3B. The extra time at 2B might be of some use if he doesn't figure it out in a few years though. But I really do mean a few years... unless he gets significantly worse in a hurry, I don't want to see Castro moving off SS before he's 24-25.

    Best news in what has been a horrible season.

    http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=4897&position=P#pitchtype Take a look at his fastball velocity. If that isn't an indication of major arm issues, I don't know what is.

    They could try something like that. They also might just bump Wilken all the way up to GM... which I'd be less happy about.

    Candelario's OBP is gonna sink like a ship if he keeps having nights like this one... :bye:

    I was really hoping we wouldn't sign Klafczynski. It's gonna be a pain in the butt learning to spell that...

    IS IT THE SHOES?

    I think it's about time to do some mid-season prospect lists. We all seem to be itching to talk about our favorite guys and how nobody is giving them enough love.
  16. Rob
    It's gonna be real hard to get a read on his contact and power if he never swings at the ball... not that I'm complaining about a prospect having a good batting eye or anything.

    Betemit isn't the type of guy you let block a good prospect. With Aviles going to AAA, I'd expect to see Betemit logging some more time at SS and 2B.

    Pretty sure that was a joke but Simpson signed June 19th. Pawelek actually signed with us during the draft, if memory serves.

    I'd like to take a moment to thank everybody who posted here during the draft. Whether it was pages upon pages of tasty information (Most of you) or a few scattered comments containing mostly uninformed tripe (like me). It was a very enjoyable experience.

    Haven't heard a name I recognize in a few rounds. I think it's time for me to take a break.

    Cubs 20th Round Pick: Ben Klafczynski OF Kent State University
  23. Rob
    Cubs 19th Round Pick: Danny Hoilman 1B East Tennessee State University

    I like it but don't love it. Of course, snagging a few HS guys and bribing them away from college (a la McNutt) could change the looks of that considerably.
  25. Rob
    Kinda surprised to see us grabbing so many catchers.
