  1. trying to do what the Rays and Giants did is a really cool and novel idea until you think about it for precisely one second and remember oh yeah we tried to do what the Rays and Giants did and that simply became Trevor Williams and Zach Davies and Jake Arrieta conducting personal HR derbys
  2. thankfully he won't have to contend with Michail Antonio
  3. Lions D very surprisingly kinda kept Ravens offense in check but there was also this
  4. ah the HardcoreCubFan mantra..
  5. idk only mustering a .780 OPS in your absolute best possible subset on the strength of a .412 babip is not the strong endorsement it seems
  6. Brennan gives me Mike Cameron flashbacks
  7. nice, just 8 more weeks like this one and i'll take over 1st
  8. seeming a lot like a top-50 prospect to me
  9. keep rewatching this one, Robinson's speed is so bonkers
  10. make that 2-6-33 when trailing at the half
  11. PEPI PEPI PEPI
  12. K total seems a bit less impressive when you see the lights were turned off
  13. Josh Sargent brace in his first start at Norwich
  14. Top 20 Cubs prospects: 2021 mid-year rankings [Marquee Sports] https://www.marqueesportsnetwork.com/top-20-cubs-prospects-2021-mid-year-rankings/ some eyebrow raisers for sure here 4) Owen Caissie 5) Kevin Alcantara
  15. That’s not it at all. It’s this mock disbelief that people on the cubs message board are discussing the players who are currently playing for the cubs. You chose to click on a topic with a very clear subject that fits in pretty well with the purpose of the board. On the flip side, the Cubs actively chose to tank this year and put the fans in a situation where if they want to think about their team they have to discuss garbage players and whether those garbage players have a chance to play for the team next year. That sucks, it should be inexcusable for a fan base that provides a tremendous financial cushion to the owners who are acting as though they are the greatest victims of the covid shutdown. If a fan wants to express his frustration with the situation that the owners of the team chose to the put them into, then they should feel free to do so without being criticized by fans who think we should just shut up and accept the situation. viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2630
  16. Johan Camargo's intriguing for 3B since Riley's got that spot wrapped up for a while
  17. gotta think if this is your #2, you've got the unquestioned worst system in the league
  18. 50 games of data showing him completely helpless at the plate should have him outside the top 10 in favor of guys who have shown literally anything at the most important aspect of the game what's the archetype here? who has far more whiffs than total bases but then suddenly puts it all together to become a passable player? like, is he playing through mono i think we don't want to admit this has all the early signs of a likely bust
  19. this is pretty good overall but i still kinda hate how uninspiring 1B/DH remains; have to think you can aim a little higher on potential there..with likely DH, Josh Bell becomes a good target or maybe Luke Voit Anthony Rizzo idk
  20. if you had listed this particular infield to me, i'd have assumed a plane crash occurred
  21. This is what pisses me off. Watching Bryant cry when finding out he was traded and knowing that the return was underwhelming. You didn't *have* to dump Bryant. Keeping him gives you at least a better chance of re-signing him, and if he doesn't then the worst case scenario is a comp pick. I just don't know why Jed thought he had to dump all 3 for whatever he could get. *And i like the Rizzo and Kimbrel trades and thought Javy's was ok. But this seems terrible to me. i mean they supposedly gave him 200+ million reasons to stay and he chose not to, it's a business
  22. yup nevermind!
