    When did Coghlan start using Stone Cold as his walk up?

    Willie is trying to miss the postseason roster.

    NM, David has it in a different thread.

    He's definitely not plus plus likeability. He's kinda jerkfacy. This is a really really really odd take Is their some bald blaming going on, perhaps?

    He's definitely not plus plus likeability. He's kinda jerkfacy. that's just weird he's intense on the mound, as are a lot of players. But there's plenty of instances of him being all happy go lucky with the other guys. And most importantly he was a part of the chicken and beer story in Boston that led to Theo departing the Red Sox and completely turning around a Cubs franchise. Not to mention he was a free agent that chose to come here and has done exactly what they needed him to do. It boggles my mind why a Cubs fan wouldn't like him. Cancer survivor, tons of charity work.

    [tweet] [/tweet] This probably makes more than a few White Sox fans throw up.

    I really, really, really hope beyond hope he has a good year somehow after year 3 and he opts the horsefeathers out. He flat out sucks.

    Best of 5

    Can someone make a sign and get him to read it before his next AB?
  10. davell
    Can someone throw Hammel a bag of Doritos? Utz must be giving him the horsefeathers.
  11. davell
    That's good, because he appears to be getting good at baseball.
  12. davell
    Javy is pretty horsefeathering studly.
  13. davell
    Dex needs to sign a 3 year deal for us.

    Clifton at 5 3 0 0 0 4 now. Definitely think he hits a few top 100 lists over the winter.
  15. davell
    Longenhagen(FG prospects guy) doesn't see him as a top 100 prospect, if looked at as a hitter only.

    Oh geez. I'm so sorry. Fred was a constant, a guy that truly made this place comfortable. He made the losing more tolerable in ways he only could. I know he's watching us and watching the Cubs kick the crap out of everyone. Fred, this year won't end with "Oh Horsefeathers!".
  17. davell
    Is he alive? He never came back after one of the board issues, right? Although, I'd say he didn't really want to see everyone so happy with The Boy Genius either.....
  18. davell
    I think the RISP struggles are worth a concern. How can you post on here for years, with the wealth of baseball knowledge and actually think this? He only listened to BacktoBanks.
  19. davell
    Heyward was up. Willie likely figured he needed to steal 2nd or else the inning was over anyway.

    It's in question what even counts as stuff, that solely seems to mean velocity from my understanding of your opinions, when you think Jen Ho Tseng is clearly better. Not to mention you greatly exaggerate Kellogg's stuff to fit your narrative in the first place. Narrative? I doubt you understand the meaning of the word. The dude doesn't have a plus pitch. He's got an incredibly average arsenal. All i did was ask a question about the guy. The answer obviously set you off, you wouldnt have went into full defense mode otherwise. I love the fact you're still talking this guy up and digging in even more when you said before the season that you expected an add in velo(now backed off to it can happen anytime) and that you expected him to rocket thru the system and finish the year in AA(I'm sure there's some reason on that not happening too yet, you're still trumpeting an Eric Jokisch A Ball season as some magnanimous success on your end.(yeah, I saw your self congratulatory post on always being right about prospects, before you deleted it). So who's got a narrative here? A guy that asked a question to an evaluator or the guy who's propped up this guy all season long and has gone into defensive mode because the answer doesn't fit what he's been saying everyday since we drafted the guy.

    Eugenio Palma is a smallish lefty that put up a solid season at 19 in Arizona. That may be worth putting him on the list for. Javier Assad is a J-2 guy that put up a solid stateside season. He probably should go on. Personally, I'd be tempted to put Brailyn Marquez in my top 30. But I can go either way on whether to add the DSL guys or not. But I'd say, if you do add them, just go ahead and add all the guys that got listed bonuses. Which is a bunch, but it'd conceivably be fun to have us all pick a guy or two and see who winds up being right.
  22. davell
    And Manuel Rondon definitely needs to be added.
  23. davell
    How are we classifying rookies? Almora doesn't have the AB that'd take him off BA's list, but he definitely has the service time. Edwards would fall into the same category, whichever way we go.
  24. davell
    I'm done. Guys with actual stuff appeal to me much, much more than ones that don't. When Kellogg is pitching well in AA, I'll start to care. Until that happens or he's recognized for something interesting by an actual evaluator, he's just a guy that's probably 50/50 to even make BA's top 30 Cubs prospects. Which certainly isn't worth having endless discussion over.

    Holy horsefeathers lmao
