  1. Illinois now with a B1G-record 27 game winning streak after holding off Nebraska 3-2 in the first round of the B1G tourney. Got to be closing in on a national seed now.
  2. So.. - Castillo to Seattle - Medina to Iowa - ??? to Chicago
  3. so what, then, the Cubs aren't getting Walker and Zunino in the deal?
  4. Officially Coke DFA, Schlitter down. Lake and Wada up. EDIT: Why would autocorrect even do that?
  5. this could only mean that Bryant, Baez and Schwarber are being packaged together in some mega deals. What would that package be worth?
  6. Also yay player development !
  7. If recent history is to be followed, it means it's time for a new thread in the Transactions forum.
  8. There are two reasons specifically. 1) DFA doesn't mean released. 2) He can be sent down to AAA without being DFA and there's no roster crunch.
  9. Where the Cubs had leads of 7-1 and 10-5? Yeah, lucky to win that one.
  10. I'm not sure you're familiar with the meaning of the term fact.
  11. I think the concern in New York is less that the Mets have an answer at SS and more that they have someone at any position who can generate offense.
  12. More games between the Cubs and Pirates than the Cubs and Cards.
  13. Russell works okay as a loogy. Wood makes more sense slotted into Jackson's long man spot, possibly piggy backed with Hendricks.
  14. Teams with a better record than the Cubs: Cards, Dodgers, Royals, Astros, Tigers.
  15. Cubs now at a season high 6 games over .500.
  16. Yeah, once it was announced the Cubs were bringing up Schlitter as a 9th pen arm, they were definitely using him today. The real question is, who comes up/goes down tomorrow. Lake?
  17. There is no reason to bring up Schlitter today for Szczur if you don't plan on using him today.
  18. I have a personal annoyance of the "breaking news" threads where it's just conjecture based on rumor.
  19. It's not analysis, it's a thread title based solely on conjecture and no evidence, and has nothing to do with what actually happened. The only analysis is "Hey, there's nothing to suggest that Phil Coke is gone", which, given your history on player value, is probably well beyond you, true.
  20. So why is the thread title "Phil Coke Gone" when the transaction is Szczur for Schlitter?
  21. That was the game Marmol had his most Marmolish implosion of all and we won on a seeing eye grounder and DeRosa and Theriot had that delightfully awkward hug at home plate right? That was a wild one. yeah and theriot made that insanely stupid and bad throw That fails to narrow it down.
  22. I for one am impressed that Bryant goes through so many pitchers per plate appearance.
  23. Illinois hangs on to win 10-9 in an extremely sloppy game and ties a record with 20 straight B1G wins.
  24. Sure, the ending was odd, but the odds are in your favor if you keep getting men on base every inning.
