I was going to post something about how the Cubs' overall crappiness cost DLee that MVP more so than Dusty's lineup construction, but then I went to the MVP voting standings from that year and Morgan [expletive] Ensberg finished 4th behind Lee. Holy crap.
Whoa. When discussing the young players he "can't wait" to mentor, Andrew Wiggins was not mentioned. Yeah, I noticed that too. Didn't see that until Simmons mentioned it on Twitter. Kevin Love?
A big part of me will miss the more quaint Wrigley Field, but I have to admit I'm very interested to see how this all turns out. It's going to look so [expletive] different next year.
It's got to be Hundley. Neifi sucked, but he at least hit a GW grand slam against St. Louis once. Edwin Jackson might climb the list if he doesn't get his [expletive] together.
I'd like to take credit for the green in West Michigan, but I imagine a good chunk of that was also the Cubs/Tigers Twitter partnership. I did vote a whole bunch of times, though.
I always loved Larry Biiiiiiitner for no other reason than the extraneous "i". As a kid I always made sure to pronounce the extra "i" and then a few more for good measure. "Bi-i-i-i-i-ttner." My friends and I did the same with David Aardsma.
Sammy 1st. I got irrationally pissed when idiot Cubs fans started booing him in 2004. Aramis 2nd, Big Z 3rd. Like Mojo, I had a major Prior man-crush going in 2003 though.
not really. you just type in your email and birthdate and click vote And I'm not sure what the vote limit is, but I haven't hit it yet. I'm beginning to think there isn't one. I'm almost certain there isn't for the final vote. I believe we had this discussion in 2008 and Vance got involved.
