  1. I want big league ready pieces if we're dumping Samardzija, but Russell seems like a good start. Does he project elsewhere outside of SS? I imagine he could play second.
  2. That's not a terribly big drop, and isn't he only around another year or two anyway? It's not like he's being counted on to be a huge part of the team for years.
  3. The latter, I think. Presumably letting him play a little was just a perk and since there's not a good outfielder to be found in AAA it doesn't hurt anything.
  4. Minor league assets that are valued highly enough to then turn into other assets (Cashner) don't suddenly stop being assets retroactively because they were traded and then didn't become stars. After all, presumably, if we ever start trying to win MLB games, part of Theo and Co.'s job is going to include trading some minor leaguers away for other assets.
  5. I thought it was John Dowd. It was Dowd.
  6. The owners already railroaded the players barely two years ago and they're going to do it again?
  7. At this point if we are at an absolute impasse with him on a new deal, I'd absolutely do a deal where Hunter Harvey is really the only significant piece from Baltimore. I wouldn't. Contrary to apparently growing belief, no one says the Cubs HAVE to trade Samardzija. I'd rather keep him at below-market value for next year than ship him out for a lottery ticket and scraps.
  8. Wouldn't have a protected draft pick. Can't do it.
  9. Chris Bosio was the last guy to no hit the Red Sox...
  10. Ditto. I was actually annoyed when I realized I'd forgotten him
  11. LMAO at Len talking about the ball girl calling off Mookie Betts
  12. The funny thing is, if we'd figured out how to fill the bottom half of a roster this year, we might just have been good enough for it to matter.
  13. Would love to see one of these for the Cubs, but they do a good job keeping a lid on these things.
  14. He should really just retire and get it over with.
  15. Carmelo going to Miami at this point would be the greatest troll move by the Heat in the history of the league.
  16. I'm getting really sick of Lake and Olt striking out every single damn time up
  17. Guyyyyys. I can't believe you guys hate a really good Cardinal player....wtf guys.... I hate the white sox way more than the cardinals so all I've gathered so far is that you guys hate molina more than other good players because 1) he has neck tattoos 2) he's a cardinal got it dont you think thats kind of meatball? He's a self-righteous douchebag, which has been pointed out repeatedly as well.
  18. Oh God, I forgot about that
  19. Expiring contract? Carmelo trade piece, no doubt
  20. Apparently we will also be getting Anthony Randolph in the McDermott trade.
  21. Harris to the Nuggets with our 19th pick
  22. Saric didn't look like a guy who won't be coming over this year. He signed a deal with a Euro team that essentially guarantees he's gone until at least 2016
  23. I've had that problem before. I generally just keep trying until it stops being stupid.
  24. Philly trading for Saric, so they basically drafted two more guys who won't play for them this year. Bold strategy.
