    I agree that it's incredibly unlikely that it would actually work, but if he's not dealt at the deadline, then there's really no reason not to try him out there. As unlikely as it is, there's still a non-zero chance that it works and when the other options are to bench him, delay Rizzo, or move Rizzo to another position, the only logical choice is to see if he can do it. Well, I think the difference is some see it as moving him there to make room for Rizzo, not "we have to find room for LaHair!"

    Some of the mocking tones have made me wonder whether people just think it won't work or whether people think it's dumb to even try. I think it's a good idea to try, but I wouldn't put off shopping him around this deadline in order to do it. I don't think it's dumb to try; it's not like he'd be blocking anyone who needs to be playing or is coming up through the minors. I just think it's silly to expect him to be serviceable out there when he's not even a good 1B and he has almost 300 innings of terrible OF play to look back on. He simply doesn't have the athleticism or the arm to make up for his deficiencies.

    I don't think anyone is saying the Cubs can't play him out there; just that expecting him to amount to much defense-wise isn't very realistic. Someday the NL will wise up and have the DH.

    What do you want, you lunatic? Just tell us so we can do it/say it and you'll shut up and you can go throw the water fountain through the damn window.

    You can't really deny that they have the best offense in baseball... it's not close. Well, in reality it's pretty damn close between them, the Yankees and Boston. Now their pitching advantage over both is much more impressive.

    Dunn couldn't play OF. His defense in the OF killed his WAR while with the Reds.

    what trophy? WS... that team is on a whole other level above the rest of MLB Yeah, it's pretty bonkers how they're just going to coast to their third WS victory in a row. Team is better than ever before, IMO. IT'S A LOCK.

    I'm gonna win this without LaHair's freak-ugly ass.

    After his year last year and now this injury that's turning out to be an aboslutely terrible contract. Possibly the worst in baseball as of right now. Which sucks because Werth is a damn good player and most people will know him as "worst contract guy." Btw even then no one beats Soriano... The Cubs at least got a couple of seasons where Soriano was worth more than his contract. The Nationals are probably going to end up with one with Werth, and even that was only by about a million.

    Well, picking Rip over Deng is goofy, and pretty much every major trade they've been rumored to be interested in would have required Noah or Gibson, and usually both.

    Anibal Sanchez is 28.
  17. Sammy Sofa
    Meh, whatever. They would have gotten crappy prospects that way, too.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    Yikes. I mean Ted Lilly isn't a hall of famer but he's a pretty good pitcher. Eh, he wasn't coming back, so it was a decent trade at the time. DeWitt was flawed, but he was still young and was a decently rated prospect. Just one of those deals where you're gambling on prospects.
  19. Sammy Sofa
    No, he's going to be awesome. I feel it in my nether regions.

    Would you like to touch my ball? http://cdn.bleacherreport.net/images_root/images/photos/001/634/686/140085138_crop_650x440.jpg?1333069854 You may touch my ball.

    Campana has been more productive than Cespedes. Campana isn't a threat to do anything down the line except be adorable.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    HUZZAH!

    I don't see why he would be throwing the ball remotely in that direction, but I guess you can't rule anything out. COME ON, LET'S GET NUTS. http://images.wikia.com/lostpedia/images/8/8c/Jackface.jpg
