  1. 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.
  2. it was a sox fan though Well...he's still not wrong, sadly.
  3. I'm pulling for him just because of the tragic mustache/acne combo.
  4. I mean...it's not only God that's hearing the dumb, unrepentant, egotistical things he keeps saying.
  5. Boy, didn't expect the Mormons to allow this.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. Fangraphs has his FIPs numbers as 2.72 and 3.39, which is pretty freakin' awesome.
  10. Homeboy is slashing .170 .279 .283 .562 over the last month, so we might be past "he's playing hurt" into "he just sucks and is old"-territory*. *I think he's a turd player, so I MIGHT be biased.
  11. I said the same thing in the game thread; if they're not going to do the smart thing of batting some combo of Bryant, Rizzo, Baez and Contreras 1-4, then put Schwarber at the top since he's getting on base. Everyone else is worthless.
  12. He's "there's always next *RANDOM TIME PERIOD*..." personified.
  13. Where have you gone, donobr1.
  14. Also: a report about the FO and the players having to remind a lame duck manager to do his job seems like a weird time to be going to bat for him, but whatever.
  15. What take? I just don't like him, and like cracking jokes about how much I think he's a bum ass.
  16. Man, I prefer the idea of the Cubs trying to Milton the hell out of Maddon by moving him further and further away, so I'm going to pretend that that story about him needing to be more involved was leaked by Maddon himself.
  17. And if the end result is he's traded for nothing after continuing to suck and be an awful human being, whatever; it's not like him getting released is the only way the FO has to eat horsefeathers getting him off this team.
  18. Pretty sure this dude is foolishly trying to watch the court and the screen at the same time, and he's tearing himself apart: [tweet] [/tweet]
  19. I mean, is he really being "robbed" if he's so limited as a hitter than unless he walks or dongs, he's basically screwed? You know what I mean. He seems to hit into the shift a lot when otherwise it would have been a hit. I do! That's why I don't think he's being robbed since he is, unfortunately, just hitting to where he usually hits to. He makes it too easy for the other team to defend against him. That said, it might be time to put him in the top spot since Heyward sucks again. Schwarber's at least getting on base at a great clip, even though he can't do much else.
  20. Yup. Gotta love last second fluke drama. It broke poor Embiid!
  21. You gotta weirdly admire his dedication to always being hideously, hilariously wrong.
  22. Holy horsefeathers; what an ending to the Raptors/76ers Game 7.
