Yep, I'm totally stealing this idea.

I questioned when Luhnow left for the Astros if he wasn't the real brains behind the operation. It seems their eye for talent has diminished significantly since he left, with really only the high draft picks and Diaz to show as products of their system. They haven't had one of those middle round guys explode to have a major impact in quite a while, and they're not even getting many of those guys to fill supporting roles cheaply as they had in the past.

Cubs trading Soler to KC for Wade Davis
mul21 replied to Transmogrified Tiger's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I have to think this was far more complicated than a 1:1 deal if it's become this much in doubt. -
Yeah, especially since that's a clearly defined process elsewhere in the CBA, it seems like wording it in that manner would cause the least uproar.
-
Yeah, this is probably not going to end well for him. [tweet] [/tweet]

What is this threshold? Same as the previous first round/second round threshold? Luxury tax threshold. Last year only 4 teams(Dodgers, Yankees, Red Sox, Tigers) were above the threshold, it looks likely that the Tigers will fall below and possibly the Red Sox and Yankees too, while no teams look likely to jump over it. Isn't this talking about draft pick compensation/loss for FA signings? The threshold he's referencing is the dollar value of the FA contract.

Steak 'n Shake is in this weird food purgatory for me. Not fast enough to be fast food and not good enough to be a sit down place, so I never go there. -
Those are all at least 11 years.

The not as bad of a hangover thing is absolutely true, but it was his claim that you didn't get as buzzed from the good stuff that was the pants on head crazy part of it.

Ouch. With the way he plays and relies on mobility and throwing at weird angles, that may be essentially a career ender for him. FWIW it sounds like he played through it on Sunday and he made a few very strong throws on that final drive. Not that that necessarily says anything about the long term impact of the injury. Yeah, you can certainly do that before it's repaired (I did for quite a while). It becomes a pain tolerance and doing more damage thing at that point. Once it's fixed, you're fighting against the flexibility recovery that's needed to throw with the velocity he's accustomed to. The surgery has come a long way since I had it done, but it's still not a lock he can throw as well as before he hurt it (or well enough to function the way he does as a mobile QB).

I'd suggest telling them to act like grown ups and stop antagonizing each other, but I'm not about to tell you how to run the show.

There's a lot of weirdos down here that actually wear the Cardinals ones around, but I'd guess it's a team by team thing.

i remember there being some great posts where he highlighted his love of squat horsefeathering Also his graphic endorsement of P90X-type workouts because they apparently allowed him to power horsefeathers his wife. I remember the last 2, but I apparently missed the physical appearance black thing. I've seen it referenced over the years but had no idea where it came from. Link?

I wouldn't have a problem with 30, but 28 seems really restrictive.

Who is Todd Zolecki and how does he have a job? He left Hendricks off his ballot.

Ok OMC, who is it? http://totalfratmove.com/heres-the-weird-story-of-how-a-married-power-5-coach-catfished-a-young-female-alum/?utm_medium=short&utm_source=Twitter

That plus the fact that the QO with the signing team losing a pick tied to it sounds like it's going away makes the likelihood of him cashing in with a better deal for himself next even better, as you said, assuming the performance is there again next year.
-
So they want to sign him to...get revenge on us? http://chicagocubsonline.com/archives/2016/11/report-cardinals-make-play-dexter-fowler.php Bowden is a moron, but Mozeliak certainly isn't. If he goes after Dex, it'll be because he's useful to them and have nothing to do with emotions or revenge. It's hard to fathom guys like Bowden got to run front offices as recently as the last couple years.
-
If he really does have a torn labrum, Long needs to just sit out the rest of the year and get the surgery done now. He'll be in much better shape to potential actually help the team if he's fully healthy at the beginning of next year. And I know from experience that that surgery is no joke.

I just finished watching game five and now I'm watching a game six replay on MLBN. This is a much more pleasant listen with Vasgersian and Martinez calling the game instead of Buck and Smoltz.

Yep. And I still keep getting a little choked up every time I see the final play.
