    As Len would be happy to point out, it's not technically striking out the side if anyone reaches base in between.
  2. Andy
    Another terrific start.

    I mostly agree with you, but this team underperforms their Pythag every single damn year, so I sympathize with people who are sick of hearing about Pythag.
  4. Andy
    Yeah, but you offset that by how many games they SHOULD have won. LOL Going forward, barring trades and injuries, the Cubs are much more likely to play to their .471 pythag than that .373 actual. That's a fact. But whatever, have fun doing that stuff I guess. 2/3 or more of this team is pretty much here to be traded on the off chance they're any good for a couple of months. Why even post 'barring trades' knowing that?

    It would be absurd whenever the Bulls and Blackhawks were both in the playoffs at the same time, but I imagine pretty doable otherwise. MASN has both the Nats and Orioles and seems to manage.

    This probably won't matter to the Cubs since by most accounts WGN-TV wasn't going to re-up anyway, but WGN confirmed that they won't air any Chicago sports nationally after this year. http://www.chicagobusiness.com/article/20140530/NEWS01/140539978/wgn-america-to-drop-chicago-sports

    That was my thought.

    There's absolutely no way both are getting traded. I'd be surprised if either is, unless it's for Stanton. Which is what we're talking about, dingus! Haha indeed. But there's no way Theo is coming off both. Bryant is basically doing what Stanton did in AA (albeit a year older while he's doing it), so I have to think Theo and Jed view him as virtually untouchable right now.

    A very wise man in Scranton, Pa. once pointed out that the question is whether she's hot, not whether you would do her.

    I always thought that girl was so sexy, even with her early 90's hairdo. Her smile in the scene where she makes the hockey goal is hot. and then she lost 30 pounds Pretty much every hot actress seems to have that problem. Whoever's telling those women to lose weight needs to be sat down and explained some things.

    Barney being Barney.

    I'm struggling to find James Russell's purpose other than to lose games.

    Can't move forward with any more renovations until we get some of the revenue from the extra couple dozen seats down there. I know you're making a joke, but while that may have been in mind at some point in the future, I'm pretty sure there's nothing in the plans yet about any seating expansion there. I honestly thought that was part of the plan. Shows how much I know.

    That's a terrible comparison/analogy. It's sarcasm. Fear of boos is a stupid reason to do anything, and if that has anything to do with the Ricketts' reasoning, it's ridiculous.
  16. Andy
    Weren't there some boos at the Cubs Convention in January? Guess the Ricketts had better trash that too.

    Yovani Gallardo had a game-winning hit in extras last night. He's the first SP to get a game-winning hit in extras since Glendon Rusch in 2003, oddly also with Milwaukee.
  19. Andy
    Seems they've been that way for a while now. Their lineup has been Posey, Sandoval, and the seven dwarves every year since 2010. OPS+ since 2012: pagan: 121 pence: 121 belt: 133 It feels like that Muppet has been torturing the Cubs (and my nightmares) my entire life.

    I like the bullpens where they are, but if the ivy isn't affected that does look pretty cool.
  21. Andy
    I actually have an otherwise very intelligent baseball-minded friend that's been beating the drum that the Cubs ought to trade Castro for years because he thinks his perceived value is higher than his actual value. It befuddles me.
  22. Andy
    Psh. It's not like we have 8 relief pitchers on the team.
  23. Andy
    Should've traded him while value was high
  24. Andy
    I admire San Diego's commitment to being trolls by busting out the '84 throwbacks whenever we show up.
  25. Andy
    I'm kinda rooting for Samardzija to be the first SP to make the All-Star team winless. Forget the All-Star team. I'm curious how many Cy Young votes he could get without a win.
