That is stupid, though Castro has sucked for a month now and I'm only now seeing it and feeling the pain it brings.

This makes me want to weep rage.

Minor League Discussion & Boxes 7-15-14

I thought everyone was making fun of that Schlizz weirdo and the just the general seriousness of the discussion. -

Yes, but Jeter.

Guys, come on, we're blessed to share this time with him.

It...hurts. I get why we did it, I support why it was done, seeing Harden's debut for the Cubs live is one of my favorite things ever (not counting Marmol's implosion)...but holy [expletive], I need to stop myself from looking at Donaldson's numbers. It's been like 8 years since we traded him you goon I KNOW, BUT IT SUCKS. The Harden trade 10000000% made sense and was the right thing to do at the time. You just pray that nobody you have up in those types of deals turns out to be awesome...and he did. Wait! He's been horrible for June and July! NEVERMIND. Hahah a .455 OPS since June 7th Is he dying? What the [expletive] happened?!?
-
I would just prefer to get him adjusted ASAP; he can always go back to 2B here or somewhere else if needed. With a bunch of prospects everyone is likely going to need time to make adjustments and go through growing pains, so I'd rather get this one out of the way.

only an everyday player so way more fun i love him Funk yes.
-
Doesn't he provide more value at 2nd though? Obviously, he could get pushed to CF later by Baez or Russell but that might not happen for a couple seasons. OF seems like a one way trip for him unless his ceiling is a supersub type. If that's what the future holds, adjusting to CF shouldn't be that difficult. Why not just play him in CF now? One of the advantages of already having a season that's written off.

Cubs dugout side, like 10 rows back behind it. *SIIIIIIIIGH* Brighter times await us Yeah, but, fingers crossed, I'll be moving back east before next season. Oh well. well that's depressing Eh, we'll still have the tickets and places to stay, so I'll be back plenty once they're good...just kinda bummed that they were so terrible for what turned out to be my last few years here for a while. I hope they string some fun wins together this season so I can get some in.
-
[expletive], that's how that started? I had a family wedding that day, so I didn't see any of it until the reception and it was already like the 3rd. Kinda had the meatball doom boner going with the the way the series had already gone, so I took a LOT of advantage of that free bar.

It's my invention, dammit. He looks like a less swollen Robert Z'Dar.

And then him doing what he did in that video I posted Oh, I was there and it was glorious. Man, I moved here in early 2007, so those first two years I went to a ton of Cubs games and thought I was in for a ride of awesomeness. Since 2010 I've been to like 10 games and I live like 20 minutes away. I, too, was there. In 08, I was cursed for the first like 6 games I went to. They were 1-5 when they basically had lost like 6 games (and probably won around 25) at home all year. Then as the year went on I don't think I saw them lose again for another 12. Got to be there when they clinched at home in '08; easily the greatest game I've ever been to.

I was so excited when we brought him over with the Ichiro/Hideki Matsui hybrid comps. YES, THIS. That's remember hearing more than once; I think SI did a pretty big write up about him basically saying the same thing, too.

That was meph i am pretty sure you are joking but this still made me question my memory so i had to check. http://viewfromthebleachers.com/blog/2007/12/15/projecting-fukudome/ pecota had him at .289/.401/.504. It seemed like he got favorable projections and comparisons left and right; I remember being so damned excited when they got him and watching clips of him playing in Japan. Boo.

The idea that Junior Lake existed in 2008 is baffling to me.

Three car pile up. A good point undercut by some dude randomly dropping his resume on us.
