  1. Olney just compared acquiring Olt to acquiring Ian Stewart. GET FIRED UP.
  2. That's impossible, because Edwards > Olt He is, but he's also in Single-A, which means he's not contributing to the Cubs anytime soon.
  3. Wonder who the third is. I'm not a fan of Olt-as-centerpiece, but it looks like that's what we've got.
  4. So Wood starts tonight, then, I assume? Yeah, that had already been mentioned as the alternative.
  5. At least two big-conference commissioners (ACC's Swofford and Big 12's Bowlsby) are not so subtly floating the idea that the 'haves' in Division I are going to split up from the 'have-nots', and soon.
  6. Forgetting Jacque Jones airmailing the backstop in 2006 at PNC? Jacque Jones throwing the ball 10 feet like 4 times beats that 7 days a week.
  7. Damn, Junior Lake is really freaking impressive out there, especially for being an infielder.
  8. It's almost like walking the pitcher is galactically [expletive] stupid or something.
  9. So I watched South Carolina twice last season so I may not be the best guy to judge. I saw them play early in the year and almost lose to Vanderbilt I think and I watched them play Michigan in whatever bowl. Except for the "play" where the Michigan rb gets de-helmeted, I barely noticed him in those games. Lewan really had Clowney under control most of the game. Clowney was left un-blocked on the "play". Couple that with a player with too-much hair for his helmet and it looks great, but was not really that great of an individual play. Is he really this clear cut number one without any doubt talent or is it somewhat over-hyped? I haven't seen a ton of Clowney but he's definitely the real deal. Julius Peppers with maybe even more speed and athletic ability, if that's possible.
  10. All but about 3 of the Bud Fan Cam images were of hot girls. God bless you, WGN cameras.
  11. Nice knock by Lake. He sure swings a lot.
  12. Junior Lake wants to be a Puigian folk hero
  13. Garza quoted Finding Nemo at the end of his short meeting with the press today: "Just keep swimming, guys." He's a kick. I'm going to miss him.
  14. He may not be Mike Trout, but I'm pretty sure any Rangers fan on the planet would take "a good switch-hitting middle infield player who can maybe hit 20 HR at the tops" out of Profar right now if it was offered.
  15. Are you new to this team? Ryan Dempster, Dan Haren, Brian Roberts, et al. It'll be 2 more weeks. :-)
  16. Well, it clearly can't get any worse, so let's go ahead and use both my post-ASB transactions: Drop McCutchen, add Trout Drop Freeman, add Bryce Harper And I might as well switch my WC from Manny Machado to Troy Tulowitzki while I'm at it.
  17. Wild card picks can only be changed during the ASB, so tonight and tomorrow. Thursday as well - there are no games then.
  18. Meh...$8.5 mil for a projected 1.6 WAR this season. I acquired Cespedes in a fantasy keeper league in the off-season. I remain high on him but he's definitely been frustrating this year.
