  1. "Berger Schatz" is a baller name.
  2. Winning games is always good, but the Cobs' offense scares the hell out of me right now in a bad, bad way.
  3. Bulls definitely belong in both until they finally upend the FO.
  4. You are guys are pretty cruel for wanting the Bulls to get their murderous fingers on good players.
  5. Yaaaaay. But it would be nice if the offense didn't rely on the pitcher's bat to win.
  6. Heyward has fallen off of a cliff, landed on another cliff, and then fell off of that, too.
  7. Hendricks can't be stopped. He's a better hitter than 75% of the Cubs lineup.
  8. Hendricks with a nice pitch count through 6.
  9. Freddie Freeman shows no mercy: [tweet] [/tweet]
  10. Meh; it's just the Reds. Might as well take advantage of when you can get a key player some needed rest. Likely just precautionary.
  11. Yeah, some people are talking about him like he's a lock to be another Giannis, which, OK; calm WAY down, folks. My hot, maybe not so hot, take is this draft pretty much sucks. It’s a bunch of role players/2nd-4th best players on a championship team at best (even Zion and Morant) and the media/narrative around it is trying to push guys to be things they likely aren’t at the NBA level because there always needs to be a GUY or GUYS taken high. Agreed. There's a bunch of "someone's eventually gonna have to pay a max contract to a guy who's not REALLY a max contract guy" guys in this one.
  12. LOL WUT? I think he’s being overblown as a Lebron or KD type franchise changer, for sure top 1-3 player in the league, that guarantees conference/finals runs with pretty much just him and role players. You have to take him #1, don’t get me wrong. But I think how it’s being talked about as an afterthought that’s he’s a lock to be this for sure great player is a bit much. He’s much more likely some weird new age combo of Draymond/Julius Randle/Blake Griffin type player to me. Which is perfectly fine. Yeah, some people are talking about him like he's a lock to be another Giannis, which, OK; calm WAY down, folks.
  13. LOL WUT? There's not-too-crazy analysis out there that has him likely ending up more as a Larry Johnson-type than the godkiller a lot of people are assuming. Which, hey, isn't a bad thing.
  14. it was a sox fan though Well...he's still not wrong, sadly.
  15. I'm pulling for him just because of the tragic mustache/acne combo.
  16. I mean...it's not only God that's hearing the dumb, unrepentant, egotistical things he keeps saying.
  17. Boy, didn't expect the Mormons to allow this.
  18. I'd say this is a case of Theo not knowing yet again when to quit one of "his guys," but they horsefeathering traded for Russell basically fully formed, so that's not even a horsefeathering excuse. horsefeathers THIS. horsefeathering Dum Dum-headed dork hypocrite.
  19. I’m pretty sure our revolving door leadoff spot has posted better numbers than Dexter every year since he’s left. But yes I get what you’re saying, just basic baseball intuition has me wanting a set guy there for ~145 games. We should trade for Haniger is what I’m saying. Fowler posted a .393 OBP in 2016. I'd be VERY curious to see if the Cubs' leadoff spot has topped that in the 2 full seasons since.
  20. Last year was the only time Descalso barely put up an OBP justifying him getting that many ABs, so....no. Man, what a sham player who rode a fluke age 31 season. It's such a neon-lit outlier in terms of offensive value from the rest of his bum career.
  21. Fangraphs has his FIPs numbers as 2.72 and 3.39, which is pretty freakin' awesome.
