I know, right? Hendry would have got Joe Blanton and Johnny Gomes and only given up 3 of our top 10 prospects. I still curse Brendan Harris and Ray Sadler's names. you make a good point, Hendry really never traded any good prospects at the trade deadline changing subjects, who do you guys think will win AL MVP this year -
with the way this FO covets hitters who don't expand the strike zone, no question in my mind that Fowler is the one they'll prioritize re-signing

do i get anything good for most points

just last year

Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 8-30-15
sneakypower replied to CaliforniaRaisin's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
K rate holding steady at 24.7% after last night's double header. his last 27 G, he's whiffed only 24x in 123 PA (19.5%) -
doesn't have top-50 trade value
-
yeah how can we automatically subscribe to those?

Cubs acquire Fernando Rodney

i don't even mind Tommy La Stella like others do, but seeing desperation moves like this make me really wish we could have held onto Arodys Vizcaino somehow -
for the Cubs he was basically an injury-prone Starlin Castro, then he bounced around as the cagey vet serving in mostly a bench role for various teams for the next decade i don't see the big deal with it
-
he played 18 seasons in the bigs, made 2 AS teams and earned $24M in 1990s dollars and earned MLB pension

Post deadline deals

he has an even higher HR rate than Haren! -
Addison Russell is awesome and deserves a thread
sneakypower replied to David's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
double-plus feet -
so Brek Shea made a pretty outstanding baby announcement (nsfw)
-
will it go before or after the shaking out dandruff motion
-
i don't want this lost on the bottom of the page :-" I'm going to guess that Starlin gets traded (almost) no matter what this offseason. That would open up 2B for Javy. i never do these but re-sign fowler sign price trade hendricks and castro for ross what say you guys? i'm getting tired of beating this drum, but with our transparent, dogmatic approach to prioritizing controlling the strike zone, it's simply unfathomable we'd ever trade Hendricks+ for the league leader in issuing walks

just 20 Ks in his last 100 PA

Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 8-25-15
sneakypower replied to CaliforniaRaisin's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
this is almost exactly right -
B2B and SSR might have to find a new team
-
IIRC, they said 375 on the telecast, which would make more sense. The wind was blowing out like what 19 mph? lets be honest. the homer today was great. the energy is amazing with this team. im big on energy, the kind that you cant see but you can feel. but the wind has helped alot lately which was not the case earlier in the season.. if you look at the espn stat again they somehow took wind into account as a factor. it doesn't matter today because the cubs won. that same hit in many parks was a flyout.

Owings, you dumb [expletive]
-
Aaron Hill stretching that out and coming well short of 1B was pretty outstanding
-
high bouncer landing between Lester & Ross, tough play, but more athletic SPs like Lohse & Greinke probably make it i think meatball rage stemmed mostly from Lester standing there motionless
-
Jhoulys? Gustavo?
-
Corey Kluber & Jon Lester just didn't have the will to win, today
