  1. He may not have the greatest range and the accuracy and release time on his throws leaves something to be desired, but he has great hands and has made some really nice plays on hard hit balls.
  2. I was at today's game and was somewhat surprised by the number of empty seats. Yes, I have come to expect that over the past few years, but with the team playing well I am surprised that attendance hasn't bounced back more quickly. Especially on a warm Sunday afternoon in May, what is holding people back? StubHub sales seem to reflect the same sluggish demand, with even marquee weekend games selling at a loss. What do you think it will take for us to see Wrigley packed on a consistent basis again?
  3. Wait, how did Schlitter not get sent back down after yesterday?
  4. Regardless of whether they should have overturned the call, the blame still falls on Castro. Players simply can't overslide bases now with replay in effect.
  5. Nicely done! Schlitter better reimburse the Cubs for that plane ticket.
  6. I'm not sure why, but I keep wanting to call them the "Rock and Sock connection."
  7. Clint Hurdle looks like he needs a scooter for mound visits.
  8. This should be interesting. When is the last time EJax even pitched?
  9. When do we get to the point that Wood is no longer considered a viable pinch hitter? He has looked pretty bad at the plate all year.
  10. I would prefer to continue using Tapatalk.
  11. But other than that, he had a pretty solid game.
  12. Probably can give him a max and still stay under the luxury tax with the cap going up so much the next 2 years That explains it then.
  13. By offering him a max deal. Or letting another team. Bird rights and RFA means he's ours if we want him. I understand that it is possible, but wouldn't it put them into uncharted luxury tax territory? That certainly doesn't seem like something Reinsdorf would be thrilled about.
  14. I don't know the cap specifics, but how can the Bulls possibly give Jimmy Butler a max deal?
  15. I'm starting to think the Bulls aren't going to come back.
  16. Nice effort on the glass guys.
  17. Good thing Rose is getting rested up for next year.
  18. I'm not sure Maddon quite understands double switches, unless he really thinks 1 inning of Ross over Castillo defensively was worth the move.
