Why would the Cubs have to wait at least 2 seasons to rebuild?
-
Why is that insane? That could easily have meant that a team allowed those 5 runs in a single game (yes, I know the Cubs didn't do that). -
So you're declaring Toronto and Tampa Bay to be bad teams? As currently constructed, I'd rather play Boston than Toronto right now Yup.

Luck ??? Jesus. 4 HR in his first 5 games vs 1 hr his last 10 games should clue you in on the " luck " factor. First, there's a lot of luck involved with HR. You can groove the exact same pitch 10 times, but not all of them get hit for HR. Second, I haven't gone through the details, but he looks to have been pretty lucky with the HR in the last 10 games. That's a pace to give up about 4 HR in a season, which would be extremely rare in this era. simply put, it is basically impossible to be that anti-HR as a pitcher on a consistent basis. Third, quotation marks can actually "touch" the word they surround. I have decided to space my quotation marks from now on, as some have enough time on their hands to consider it " weird ", and others enjoy drawing attention away from their ridiculous posts by alluding to it . You do this a lot.

Aramis Ramirez Leaning Toward Exercising Option
Sammy Sofa replied to Old Style's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Longer term (i.e. 3 to 4 years down the road), I think Aramis opting out may actually be a good thing for the Cubs, as I believe it would force them to the "rebuild from scratch" route. I don't understand why this type of thinking is still coming up (contrary to my earlier post above). It's a terrible FA class and the Cubs have nobody on the horizon in their system for years who can serviceably man 3B, plus it's not like this is a contract that bogs them down long term. Aramis opting out causes many more problems than it "fixes." -
I'd tolerate Girardi if it meant Hendry being fired. I really don't know if I could take Sandberg as manager with a new GM. That seems like a recipe for catastrophe.
-
Ironically, Hendry not being fired might be the best chance that we have to seeing a Cubs team not managed by monstrous and beloved former players.
-
Those criticisms were also there during his year with the Marlins, too.
-
One of you is great and one if you is awful. Thanks to the great one.
-
Probably the most common complaint I've read/heard from Yankees fan/media about Girardi is how he handles his pitchers.
-
Nope, still need to watch it again.
-
Uh, sure it will. The bullpen shouldn't have any priority over the starting rotation and the offense.
-
You need to go back and watch the glove slam clip.
-
None.
-
Yeah, the Marlins were being a bunch of fucks over this. Morgan has been acting like an ass himself, but when you've already hit him and other Nats, why keep it up? They were obviously trying to get this to this level.
-
yea man racism is ruining the internet good thing it hasn't started happening in the real world yet ... Zah?
-
Yeah, I'd love if he rebounded and ended up back with the Cubs...but it's not going to happen. Too many bridges burned to ash.
-
Check out the classy description for the video. The internet is so depressing.
-
Man, I would love it if he could somehow make it back to the bigs.
-
Unless someone just blows the Cubs away with an offer for him, he's obviously more valuable to the Cubs actually as a Cub and starting next year.
