  1. It seems like just a few years ago it was a luxury for teams to keep a 12th pitcher. How many other teams are using 13+ man staffs on a regular basis?
  2. Hopefully we look back at this day 2 months from now and are relieved because Baez has shown promise at the major league level. Unfortunately it is probably more likely that we will look back and think the Cubs should have got "something" while they still could.
  3. Oh please no Jonny Gomes. We already dodged that bullet once.
  4. That was the missing ingredient all along... guts!
  5. Is this an indication that the Cubs are cash-strapped, trading for a guy whose salary is being mostly paid by the Dodgers?
  6. Wada is probably better than Haren if he can stay healthy, but that is a big "if".
  7. I can't see any scenario where Price would bypass a chance at the open market to sign a long term deal in Toronto. Also, now we don't have to worry about losing a draft pick for signing him, not that it was a huge concern to begin with.
  8. In the feel-good story of the morning, the Cardinals have agreed to a $1 Billion TV deal, which will provide them substantial additional revenue. http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2015/07/cardinals-tv-contract-billion.html Oh, the challenges of a small market.
  9. We need a lock down closer. Not this "unproven" Rondon guy.
  10. I assume it is a semi-sarcastic thing from Maddon where he always refers to runs as points?
  11. So what if a guy makes a running catch to end the inning and continues running all the way across the field and is almost to the dugout when the ball falls out of his glove. Is that not a catch?
  12. He's going to be DFA'd anyway, so might as well pitch him until his arm falls off.
  13. Nice to see Maddon throw in the towel on this game down by only 3.
  14. I don't know a single fan who would say that.
  15. What did Maddon just say about Soriano? I rewound it 4 times and still couldn't make out what he said. The best conclusion I can come to is that he decided against commenting on Soriano's stuff and quickly changed the subject to Motte.
  16. Please stop. One bad reliever and one misused reliever does not make a bad bullpen.
  17. So we can make room for the latest incarnation of Gonzalez German or Yeorvis Medina? As much as I dislike Schlitter, he is a significantly better option than Soriano.
