  1. IT'S BEEN LIKE 10 GAMES. That's why I'm not going to do it. Just takes some patience and self-discipline when he looks as hopeless as he did in that AB.
  2. I will not fret about Javier Baez. I will not fret about Javier Baez. I will not fret about Javier Baez.
  3. It's not a Cubs/Mets series until a Met I've never heard of in my life homers.
  4. Clarifying the earlier post and contrary to Fox Sports' report, the 4 mentioned players are not (yet) gone, but they will be held out of practice and competition until the investigation is complete.
  5. Padres' 2012 1st-round pick Max Fried having Tommy John surgery. http://www.baseballamerica.com/minors/padres-fried-tommy-john-surgery/
  6. In before schadenfreude - ND found more academic fraud in an internal investigation. DaVaris Daniels (who already sat out the spring semester because of academics, way to go, pal), KeiVarae Russell (All-American level talented CB), Ishaq Williams and Kendall Moore, all starters, are gone. http://www.foxsports.com/college-football/story/2014/08/15/notre-dame-fighting-irish.html
  7. Not giving up on him quite yet. I'm still hoping he solves his vision problem because it would make for an interesting lineup in 2015. Surely you would accept an above average fielding 3rd baseman, 25 HR and .270-280 hitter. You put Bryant in left and that's pretty sweet. It's not a vision problem. It's a can't make contact problem. Which is sort of a vision problem too, but it's not something he didn't have before 2013. He hit .288 with 28 HR in 2012. Nice try. In the minors.
  8. Jaxon got 2 outs on 4 pitches, then remembered he's Jaxon and that's not how things are supposed to work.
  9. I think several people here, including the [expletive] pitching crowd, are on board with spending money on pitching this off-season. The idea isn't to never spend money on pitching, it's not to spend dumb money on pitching (like signing over-30 guys to extreme long-term, high-$ deals).
  10. Les Miles doesn't understand why Hoke isn't putting it to a vote.
  11. Why? I thought he had a solid night at the plate. Not today specifically, I could just use another Super-Javy night soon to get me jazzed. Too bad that first hit didn't go 5 feet farther.
  12. Maybe that infamous Dempster nap on deadline day wasn't such a bad thing after all.
  13. No. We get to have Addison Russell and still make a run for it next year. Yep. If Soler and Bryant are even close to the unstoppable monsters they are now in 2015, plus Lester and whatever other pitching we might get, we should contend.
  14. Man, Rany really does love Epstein and Hoyer. He was the one that interviewed for a job with them, right? That being said, a good article, and just because it can't be said enough, [expletive] pitchers.
  15. No. The Cubs won 97 games and actually underperformed. They were the best team in baseball pretty easily and the fact that they lost 3 in a row to LA was pretty much a fluke. Although my irrational side is still annoyed that we let Milwaukee surge into the playoffs when we would have faced the free-falling Mets if they hadn't.
  16. Straily 6 shutout innings tonight.
  17. He's successfully adjusted enough times in his career that it would be a big surprise and a big disappointment to me if he can't do so in MLB.
  18. Yes - the other four are all pitching in this Milwaukee series.
  19. Soler came into today with a 1.235 OPS across his three levels, 1.131 in Iowa. Also, he's 22.
  20. JD wasn't kidding, if Baez had been really on that he would've sent it to Sheffield. Good knock though.
