  1. Schilling's audible moan on that slow motion catch was a little bit creepy
  2. "his fingers might go farther than the ball" does he mean like, they'd fly off his hands and into the field of play
  3. we'll never get a full count hit http://k31.kn3.net/taringa/3/8/0/6/0/7/4/maucitoow/tn_BB0.jpg
  4. imagine David Ortiz's numbers if he went the other way, too!
  5. eat [expletive], Kentucky
  6. Calipari's such an insufferable, petulant child
  7. a generic Plumlee just fist-pumped a FT and Bryn Forbes slapped the floor in the middle of a defensive possession i hate so much about this tournament
  8. nice recovery by Russell on that scorcher Tomas looked to have made a lucky snag to prevent an Almora 2B
  9. love Addi Baez ripped a lineout to LF
  10. He's already bought into the whole BFIB thing already? That was quick. also he's already blowing a .16
  11. Pederson, Tomas, Fielder wouldn't have been terrible choices or Baez, even
  12. Yet Szczur has 0 votes so far... i'm on mobile, i'll get around to it
  13. Szczur and Rivero
  14. if we go like 6-3 in his absence there won't be much consternation over it
  15. La Stella has a .375/.455/.521, 6 BB, 6K spring line fwiw
  16. - Arrietta's our best starter / Lester kinda disappoints - Cubs have 3 top-10s in trade value (and a top-25) come July - Jason Motte blows at least 5 leads in April & May - that nightmare is over when Rivero replaces him - Travis Wood wins 13 games, plays LF at some point - DL stints for Montero, Fowler, Neil Ramirez, Hammel - Fowler gets the most starts in LF - or maybe Bryant does - Mike Trout gets injured and Robinson Cano wins MVP - Mookie Betts is top-10 in MVP voting - Stephen Strasburg wins NLCY - Carlos Carrasco wins ALCY - Soler wins NL ROY - George Springer strikes out 250x Indians over Red Sox Mets over Cubs Indians over Mets
  17. wild card also has some pretty good choices beyond the obvious couple
  18. Really? I still have him coming up on April 20th given Theo's preference for debuting new players on the road. keeping him down for 9 games makes perfect sense keeping him down any longer just for arbitrary reasons of comfort or whatever, doesn't
  19. that's actually a great upside comp, given that Gardner had 9 HR in 391 minor league games and didn't carve out a role until age 26 minor leagues Gardner: 93 XBH (9 HR) in 1764 PA Szczur: 136 XBH (18 HR) in 2137 PA but in his last 4 full MLB seasons, Gardner's hit 37 HR...Marvin Benard is another guy who grew into useful in-game power in his mid-late 20s, so it's not completely unprecedented
  20. that's the Arrieta Principle
