    castro's lack of offensive progress this year has been disheartening. Even if he ends up a .300 ish high .700s OPS guy, he'll be a valuable part of the team going forward, especially at SS. Personally, I've always seen him as a 2 hitter. Assuming Rizzo is the real deal, Jackson and Vitters pan out as solid bats for the 5-7 spots, sprinkle in another middle of the order type bat, and we're in business. Easier said then done, but that's why we bought a FO dream team instead of high priced free agents last fall. Come on, think about what you're posting; the odds of a successful Cubs team made up of internal players in every spot except 1, 4 and 8 aren't very good when you're including guys like Vitters.

    But they could have him AND Reed Johnson!
  3. Sammy Sofa
    Or it makes holding on to him more of a necessity.
  4. Sammy Sofa
    OK, so what are we supposed to take away from your little bon mot?
  5. Sammy Sofa
    Yeah, they should just give up on him.

    Hmm, aside from Andrew McCutchen, the Pirates get minimal offensive production from their outfield. If the Cubs are willing to eat the bulk of the salary, the Pirates could be a very good fit for Soriano, although Quentin might be a better one. I'm pretty sure that the Pirates have a pretty deep farm system, so this might be our best bet at a solid return. What exactly is your idea of a "solid return?" As always, I go back to the DeRosa return. DeRosa may have been a more valuable player at the time, but he was a 1 year rental and a salary dump. With Soriano, we should be taking on as much salary as we can to get that type of return. And we'll happily throw in their pick of Johnson, Camp, Mather, and Baker if helps. "Hey, do you want some garbage? How about with a side of garbage? With a garbage on top?"

    And people start to remember some of the reasons they didn't like him. Hell no, [expletive] like that is great. And everyone isn't hating on Bosh enough. He deserves our scorn for his role on Breaking Bad alone.

    Freeing the Bum is moot so long as we have stuff like this.
  9. Sammy Sofa
    Clearly the Celtics are the true villains in all of this.
  10. Sammy Sofa
    This is a joke, right?
  11. Sammy Sofa
    Are you farting as you throw? I don't even understand how this is a thing.

    How on Earth does that response have anything to do with what you quoted?
  14. Sammy Sofa
    Given how little money they have locked up, and how they had wanted to get both Soler and Cespedes, it shouldn't be anywhere near "asking for too much" to get Puig.

    Fine. I'm still not going to crown a backup catcher the worst Cubs player of all time. There's far too many horrible starting players.
  16. Sammy Sofa
    Get your hankies ready. I demand wailing and gnashing of teeth.
  17. Sammy Sofa
    Neifi Perez was actually a starting position player. Hill was just a crappy backup catcher.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    Ugh, this needs to be fixed. That's a crime given how good the original was.
  19. Sammy Sofa
    Cubs win and knock the White Sox out of first!
  20. Sammy Sofa
    FINISH THIS.
  21. Sammy Sofa
    Fudge.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    Mow down this bleached anus.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    Is Gene Gene the Dancing Machine umping behind home plate tonight?
  24. Sammy Sofa
    Look, Castro would have gotten the job done if the ball hadn't nailed the freakin' pitcher.
  25. Sammy Sofa
    Yes, I think Carlos Marmol is going to lead the Cubs to victory.
