    But Bryant was an 18th rounder at that stage of his career, so how the [expletive] are they very comparable? No. He was a 1st rounder that fell strictly due to an extremely strong commitment. Toronto offered him 3 mill and he still went to school.

    I honestly think he needs to bulk back up.

    Can't do it. Having Jordan's legacy and being able to say that was my team is just too awesome. Mike was/is/always will be my favorite athlete of all time. Cubs over a non-Mike led team? Absolutely, no questions asked. Mike just complicates it for me. Moving forward, nothing's remotely close to a Cubs WS though.

    My priority list is Cubs, UNC, Bears, Bulls. Nothing else matters for me. However, if you play the "what would you watch if all were in the championship at the same time" game......I have a very hard time not picking the Bulls, if Mike is playing. Him being ridiculously great, coupled with the nerves going on in a Cubs WS. Strange though, I kind of agreed on the Cutler/Marshall over Starlin/Rizzo thing. But obviously a Cubs championship is the grail. Sports fandom for me is complete with one.

    I'm trying to remember.....Just about everyone had us with Almora and Bryant, right? Our guys aren't known for smoke screens in the 1st at all, correct?

    We need an NSBB poker game.

    That was the Hendry model. Now the model is injured with upside or under perform your peripherals. I've got no interest in Wandy. I'd much rather see Hendricks, would prefer to see Wada and we might as well let Rusin pitch instead of Wandy too. Not even counting anything we may acquire via trade. Bad fit, in my opinion.

    Yeah, holy crap. You're a loser if you don't get up? Good lord.

    Did his girl blame herself? I'm not in front of a TV right now.

    I really think Lucchino's hatred of Theo would mess a deal up with them.

    I looked it up out of curiosity......There hasn't been a Republican Mayor in Chicago since 1931? Holy crap.

    They have a better chance of contracting parvo than they do of scoring 11.(.626 team OPS)

    I wish. Why? We're both douchey annoying baseball fans who spend too much time on the internet. He's doing it better. Ask him for a job.
  14. davell
    I wish. Why?

    On the current the 25-man roster: Arrieta, Olt, Lake, Russell, Veras, Baker, Kalish, Coghlan. Less sold on than most people: Grimm, Rondon, Ramirez, Wood (that's a weird reversal), Castillo I'm calling it: This is amended and not considered a Game Thread post. Wood though? Only one I'm surprised you listed.

    Thank you.

    I want a list of players you truly think suck, that you're not reverse pschologying.

    OPS went from .593 to .670. http://cdn1.sbnation.com/imported_assets/1720517/BoozerOpenMouth_medium_medium.gif Seeing Boozer, was hoping he'd be racking the ref.
  19. davell
    Missed it. What was it?
  20. davell
    I think he's contracted Olivo myself.
  21. davell
    He's definitely got a bigger face.
  22. davell
    He's like 40 years old already. Ah come on. He's 28, I could see him learning to actually pitch around 30-31.
  23. davell
    With his stuff, I kind of think Arrieta will put up a few very good seasons starting at some point. Almost definitely after he's no longer a Cub.
  24. davell
    if the premise is that lucchino wants to stick it to theo, you'd think he'd enjoy rubbing epstein's face in the fact that the red sox are a real team that acquires real players while the cubs just cross their fingers and trade for children I think the possibility, even if it were slight, that Theo trade rapes the Red Sox, would keep Lucchino from allowing it.

    Balaguert HR. As Carl Spackler says "He got all of that one" while rounding the bases. Awesome.
