    Thanks; that's a cool read.

    Pretty sure Kyle wants to bang one of those, too.

    I was outside of Wrigley a little before noon meeting a friend for lunch and we ran into Roark on his way in by the Billy/Santo statues. He was a pretty cool guy. It's easy to fall into the "oh, these guys are baseball players, not REAL athletes"-thing and then you meet someone like that and you realize he's a [expletive] professional athlete and I'm a big fat slob.

    Guyyyyys. I can't believe you guys hate a really good Cardinal player....wtf guys.... I hate the white sox way more than the cardinals so all I've gathered so far is that you guys hate molina more than other good players because 1) he has neck tattoos 2) he's a cardinal got it dont you think thats kind of meatball? He gets the Jeter treatment from everyone. Yup. The Cardinal thing isn't even all that bothersome; there's plenty of players I like on teams I hate. With Molina it's the neck tattoos, that he's a whiny douche and, most of all, that he's talked about in hushed tones (especially in national broadcasts) like he's some kind of insanely good, legendary player.

    Oh, that's all you have to do? Good to know. Pretty sure there's some kind of pool to see who can get Muskat to print the most ridiculous non-story.

    I got all excited there thinking he could be brought back to the fold.

    Isn't Donaldson a FA in 2019?

    There's no way a pitcher should be on the list unless it's Kershaw and contracts be damned.

    Jesus, in the first one I thought he slammed the brim of his cap against the door and figured he was dead. Too bad he missed all of that pillowy padding.
  14. Sammy Sofa
    Where are you?
  15. Sammy Sofa
    Probably that guy that loves Molina.
  16. Sammy Sofa
    Stanton? Trout, of course.

    I'm so broken that I'm just assuming that if they land Melo then Rose is, of course, going to only be able to come back as a shadow of himself or just ultimately keep breaking down.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    NOT SOON ENOUGH.

    Sure, but it shouldn't an either/or thing with big contracts; people bizarrely want to give them credit for things they basically ended up being forced to do or not do based on the circumstances of the various Ricketts debacles. The Cubs supposedly really wanted Fielder, so it's not like they were just throwing up sneaky smokescreens to cover their desire to pick up a guy that they had drafted and then basically traded to themselves twice over. And who are we really even laughing at? Oh man, those stupid 44-33 Angels. Oh gee, the Rangers suck this year after 6 straight years of finishing 1st or 2nd and having their gazillion dollar TV deal.

    I don't know how you can conquer that Uncanny Valley.
  21. Sammy Sofa
    I sincerely doubt their plan the whole time was simply to bank on Rizzo. That's what it ended up being.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    The Cubs were reported to be after both with big money/shorter term deals, as per Brett back when I still read BR.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    I think you meant "profoundly erotic." What in God's name is wrong with you.

    It really seems like almost none of the big ones pan out anymore. I know that's not the case, but damn if there haven't been a lot of massive busts on huge contracts lately. This is true. But there's this meme that pops up every so often where people act like the FO skillfully avoided some anchor contracts when really they simply just didn't have/didn't spend the money. i would argue that in obtaining/locking up rizzo that that is definitively skillful. So what? The main reason they've skipped out on any big FA signings is because they didn't have the money to do so; you really think that if Ricketts had said "OK, you can spend whatever you need" they would have just ignored guys like Fielder or Pujols or Upton?
