  1. Travis Wood now has as many homers as Billy Butler and Eric Hosmer combined.
  2. It was odd to see how Simeon was using Williams. Him playing the point guard though should only help him develop his game, but definitely limited his offense in high school. Sounds like he turned it up in AAU though. AJ has been killing it in AAU, granted I am not sure on how great the competition is that he is playing, and I thought he would move up. Oh well, I am still very excited about him.
  3. What was he previously, like 15? Aaron Jordan in that list at all? Yeah he was top 20. No Jordan didn't make the list. DJ was #38 though.
  4. So, Scout dropped Charles Matthews to #48 in their latest rankings. Am I the only one who bets he doesn't end up at UK?
  5. I see we've reached the "I'm an [expletive] who can't stick to the topic but instead makes things personal" part of Truffle's evening. If Buxton was a Cub prospect, "The Astros botched by not taking Buxton" would be a completely uncontroversial statement with the people who are currently arguing with it. I'm just pissed we botched the Javy pick. :D In all seriousness I'd be thrilled with either Correa or Buxton. That one I don't consider a botch. The other one I totally do.
  6. Your first clause contradicts your second. Buxton > Correa Bryant > Appel Both in ways that should have been known on draft day by a good organization. Botches. Yeah cause the gaps in those two players are anywhere near being close...
  7. I feel you might end up being right, but you're declaring it prematurely.
  8. Correa was a botch? Without a doubt. I get that Buxton is good, but come on. Correa comps to Tulo.
  9. I guess I don't understand how any Cub fan can boo Sammy. I get being mad back in '04 with how that season ended, but good god it's been a decade and the man was the Cubs for about 7 years.
  10. Clearly you draft Wiggins and pray LeBron comes back allowing Wiggins to become Scottie Pippen, right?
  11. Good lord Baez is depressing. So very Cub.
  12. He's awesome, but probably not a one and done type because of size. Perfect college guard. Really wish we could land him.
  13. Everyone says Michigan State.
  14. Check out manny Machado. Mm. Solid.
  15. Miguel actually has a pretty solid signature for a big star. Non Jose Bautista category.
  16. http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a101/mikpence/miggyjerseymarlins.jpg Got this last Saturday
  17. Hosmer and Butler have less combined homers than Travis Wood. Butler's ISO is .039. And Billy homers tonight. The duo have tied Travis.
  18. Hosmer and Butler have less combined homers than Travis Wood.
  19. http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a101/mikpence/20130523_161945.jpg Agreed on Trout being an awesome guy.
  20. http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a101/mikpence/20121001_234913.jpg One of my favorites I got done here the day after he took the homer lead in his triple crown season.
  21. She's still hot. She was in some TV movie around that time where she was in her underwear. It was awesome The woman doesn't age. She was the perfect mate for Uncle Jesse.
