    Need to start getting more out of Seiya.
  2. Irrelevant Dude
    Too late.

    Assuming that the Bears have punted on addressing defensive end, they should package their two 7th rounders to move up and grab Wypler in the 6th, then call it a day.
  4. Irrelevant Dude
    Are there any kickers worth taking a flier in with the late round 7 pick?

    Based on the AAA games I have watched this season, Iowa makes Coors Field look like The Polo Grounds.

    The Pirates being on top of the division is certainly an unexpected development. I don't expect it to continue, but they are off to a very nice start. If I had to root for another team to win the NL Central though, it would be them.
  7. Irrelevant Dude
    Oh boy. Here we go with Fulmer.

    How long can the Cubs really keep Morel down? They are in a very interesting situation that I can't remember ever having been in before, with multiple Major League ready prospects and nowhere for them to go. Velazquez, Morel, and Mervis have all shown that they belong on the roster, and that's not even considering what happens if Brennen Davis puts things together. With Happ and Suzuki already locked into the corner spots long term, it seems like there is going to have to be a trade from the Minor League outfield depth at some point. It's a nice problem to have, but one that will need to be addressed in the near future.

    He can't get sent back down again, right? Either Torrens or Rios has to go.

    Oh, it's just me being an old man. Whenever I'm browsing a news website, any article that pops up a video is pretty much an instant skip for me. I just want to read about the topics, not be fed videos about them.

    I definitely don't expect any Wild Card spots to come out of the AL Central, but if there's any division in baseball that a team could back into a playoff spot with under 90 wins, that division is the most likely candidate. Still rather unlikely, but at least they aren't 13 games out in the AL East.

    Is it fair to call that a "fixer upper"? I feel like that doesn't really do it justice.

    What is this?

  14. Irrelevant Dude
    We're doing videos now? Gross.
  15. Irrelevant Dude
    Is there any point to keeping him in Myrtle Beach any longer? Low-A doesn't seem to be any challenge whatsoever.
  16. Irrelevant Dude
    That's a really bad division though. Obviously if the Sox continue playing anything like they have been over the first few weeks of the season, it won't matter. On the other hand, if they can get Tim Anderson back and just start playing slightly above .500 baseball for awhile, it isn't crazy to think they could be right back in the race by early summer.

    I have been impressed with Velazquez so far this season. That was a fantastic at bat.
  18. Irrelevant Dude
    I honestly never expected him to continue being a 25+ HR guy. I won't be surprised if he ends up closer to 15 for most of his deal, but that's ok if he does everything else well (and at least starts hitting doubles).
  19. Irrelevant Dude
    Too soon to start talking about an extension to the extension?
  20. Irrelevant Dude
    He believes!
  21. Irrelevant Dude
    That is a really amazing stretch of likely winnable games. I guess it makes sense though that it had to come sooner or later. Ignoring the A's, I keep looking at the upcoming schedule and thinking "When do the Cubs get a break from playing all these good teams?"
  22. Irrelevant Dude
    Fake rally over as soon as it started.
  23. Irrelevant Dude
    Remember when Fulmer was supposed to be this year's David Robertson? To be fair, I think it might have been Rick Sutcliffe who said that.
  24. Irrelevant Dude
    I haven't really seen enough of him to develop a strong opinion. He might be an ok baseball player in the right situation, but the part that makes it weird is how the Cubs went out of their way to keep him on the team despite it clearly being a non-optimal fit for their roster. It feels almost like he is a Rule 5 guy that the Cubs are trying to stash on the bench to avoid losing him.
  25. Irrelevant Dude
    That's not really anything new, but just wait until they are on the jerseys too.
