  1. Well, I'm liking the approach thus far.
  2. Yeah, but didn't that suckage lead to us drafting Javy in the draf the next year? So we have that going for us. They have nothing until the team actually gets better. NOTHINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNG. Hey, Castro got a hit.
  3. Remember how much the Cubs sucked the last time the Blackhawks were in the Finals?
  4. Truly a clash of the jerkoffs.
  5. Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...how so? This is painful to watch. It's not like a bunch of crazy stuff has happened. Plus, they can't score runs and the promising young players aren't performing. I don't see the fun in this. Yeah, it would infinitely more tolerable if Castro and Rizzo and (to a lesser degree) Castillo were kicking ass and they were still losing, but those guys are varying level of bad to "OMG, I THINK HE HAS BASEBALL CANCER." Makes it hard to enjoy "fluke" success like Feldman or Gregg or Schierholtz when 3 of the 4 guys you kinda really needed to have a good year are turding it up.
  6. THEY HAVE A REPLY FOR EVERYTHING.
  7. I actually pretty much agree with this. Have to hope things just had to get worse before they get better. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hB7u7CYW1U
  8. Yeah, he's way too focused when he runs.
  9. Man, I hate hockey, but that was pretty fun to watch.
  10. Man, when you're dishing out gold like that you don't have time to stop and think.
  11. Basically any defensive value he is is almost completely based on his ability to throw out base stealers/pick off runners. If he can't maintain that everything else defensively is pretty bad.
  12. Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...how so? This is painful to watch. Aren't you usually the first guy to say then don't watch? Nope.
  13. Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...how so? This is painful to watch.
  14. I can't believe after having the day he did and then having a day off, he was patient at all his first at bat. On base in his last 7 ABs Isn't it 3 BBs and 4 HRs? Whatever TF he wants. I clearly am insane and don't study prospects at all close enough to make this statement, but I wouldn't trade Javy for any prospect in baseball right now. I know he has a huge bust potential, but I also think he has the highest ceiling of any guy in the minors. Yeah, but you wouldn't be trading a guy like him for prospects; you trade him to get a young (relatively) established player who can ideally produce now.
  15. Of course it does. Why would you even have to ask that?
  16. http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m8hwt2uKVC1qz9tpeo1_500.gif
  17. Of course; look at how often guys like Milton Bradley were given third, fourth, fifth, etc. chances. Stewart is still under 30, would be cheap, a former highly touted prospect, plays decent defense and still has the reasoning/excuse of his relatively recent surgery as why he might still succeed despite his struggles. I have no idea why you think this would be so career-ending when tons of people who have been much, much, much worse, both on and off the field, have bounced around.
  18. At least Rizzo's been walking and putting together good PAs it still hurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrts.
  19. Rizzo over the last four weeks: .205 .298 .373 .671 Castro over the last four weeks: .159 .213 .205 .417 [expletive] you, gods.
  20. Nobody gives a [expletive]. 4 PA, 2 HR, 2 K, at home in Colorado. Same old Colvin. Why would anyone honestly give a [expletive]?
  21. Because he's a better defender than Baez will ever be? Nevermind Baez likely won't be up until 2015; I'm hugely let down by Starlin so far this year, but it's just a tad premature to be thinking he's a lock to needing to be moved to make room for someone else almost two years from now.
