  1. Sure, for bums. Might as well start wearing sweatpants, too.
  2. Because unless there is some clause that has gone unreported for the last 2 years, Soler won't become a FA until after 2021 if they don't call him up until late April I thought that was Bryant. Since Soler wasn't drafted why would he have something similar? I thought they could bring him up at any time.
  3. Why would you say $$$ for Soler?
  4. This is going to be a long, long winter.
  5. So move him to 2B and Baez to 3B. i like this: CF - Alcantara SS - Russell 1b - Rizzo 3b - Bryant RF - Soler 2b - Baez LF - R. Castillo C - W. Castillo After swapping Castro for an established Ace like Hamels, perhaps that makes Chicago more attractive to Lester or Scherzer, and the Cubs nab one of them to round out the rotation. So you have two aces, Arrieta, Hendricks, and Turner and a bullpen full of fell creatures to add to the lineup of heroes. In summation, my four arguments for Hamels are: 1. He'd be easier to acquire 2. He's signed for only 4 more guaranteed years which takes him to 34 by the end of the deal 3. If there is a dropoff in production from Castro to Russell (which there almost certainly won't be), the upgrade of Hamels to Jackson or Wood or whomever would more than make up for it. 4. The changeup he throws as his out pitch is much easier on the arm than the breaking stuff others throw But you're essentially assuming that the largely established Castro is all but a lock to be outperformed by a bunch of prospects. I'd rather keep him, and if you're so concerned with making room for all of these guys then simply leave out Castillo or trade Alcantara.
  6. So move him to 2B and Baez to 3B.
  7. I'm sorta thinking this is because people said I was out-crazy-ing you the other day so you stepped it up.
  8. Still going to go to the game afterward? If the Purple Line express is running on time, probably.
  9. I like Coghlan, too, but it's not all that similar to Valbuena mainly because Coghlan is a defensive nightmare.
  10. [expletive], FIX THAT [expletive] WITH SOLER.
  11. Yeah, the Phillies love overpaying big, immobile, overrated hitters. Vogelbach is probably like crack to them.
  12. [expletive] yooooooooooooooooou, I love those guys.
  13. [expletive], I CAN'T GET OUT OF WORK UNTIL 4. Dammit.
  14. I am so trying to duck out of work early to go to this.
  15. Shut this piece of [expletive] garbage thread for [expletive] coward loser hobos DOWN.
  16. Tuck that [expletive] up before you slow dance.
  17. HOLY [expletive] HE IS A GOD AMONG BOYS.
  18. YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG, YOU [expletive] BUZZKILL. it's Casi hahahaha http://gifsforum.com/images/gif/rage/grand/rage4kfkf5.gif
  19. Al Contra all pimp and [expletive] out there.
  20. YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG, YOU [expletive] BUZZKILL.
  21. Quake in fear, rest of the league...this is but a taste of what you will face.
  22. Well, he murders everything by default with that swing, but it was a lonnnnnnng flay ball into the LF Corner. Now Castro just murdered his. GIVE US SOLER.
