Hahahah! What kinda of crapbag team blows 2nd and 3rd with no outs and... Oh. Right. -
i mean rizzo had a great AB that wound up resulting in a pop up, happ hit a line drive up the middle right at the SS, and schwarber scalded a ball just foul down the line
-
The only thing left to watch out for this season is who gives up first between Duke and David.

I believe I can cry I believe I can torch the sky(line)

I always want to say it, like, "Game o' Trones", with a saucy, old-timey Brookyln accent.

If they're taking on Verlander's dusty ass and big money to still have the prospects to also make Gray happen, then they're cool as hell. If they manage to get Avila on top of that then I will worship them as pagan sex lords.

Verlander's WAR per 32 starts: 2017: 2.5 2016: 4.9 2015: 4.6 2014: 2.9 2013: 4.6 2012: 6.6 2011: 6.0 2010: 6.1 Verlander's age per the next 32 weeks:

Under the assumption Archer/Stroman aren't available outside of a godfather offer and Gray requires Eloy+ I'm all just for using our money and like Caritini and Jeimer to grab a pitcher who should have elite stuff (at least get the AL to NL bump) and at least fills a rotation spot for a year or 2. A real value return is gonna require giving up real value; I'm not really worried about further prospect/young player-hoarding if it means settling for an old, declining pitcher instead of the young hotness who is desperately needed now and going forward. The pitching FA market stinks and the Cubs' pitching development options ain't too hot right now, so I have zero problem with them dealing big from a position of strength to get get someone like Archer or Stroman. Settling for Verlander because Theo and co. can't miraculously fleece another team of a much better and younger arm seems...not good.
-
I'm kinda surprised anyone is a fan of this potential move; Verlander is old as horsefeathers, was awesome again last year, but just OK the two years prior, and now kinda sucks. Yay?
-
Hahahahahahahah! Perfect.

These predictions are gonna make more pants get pooped than a Bryant family reunion: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2017-mlb-predictions/?ex_cid=rrpromo

Between the 2nd half of 2015 and 2016 we got spoiled with the lack of adversity, because writing off the season is more than silly. Last year at this point the Dodgers were 6.5 games out of first, and they clinched their division a week early. They were also 48-39 on July 6th of last year.

Sometimes good teams have a bad season. It happens.
-
2017 Brewers = 2015 Cubs. NOBODY DENY THIS.
-
What really rubs this in is that the version of the Cubs in the Show that drafted my RtS player is the absurd juggernaut that this team should have been, and then some.
-
Nah, this team is butt. Okay, guy The music is in all of the runs they DON'T score, maaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnn.
-
Yeah, real missed opportunity for it be only 5-1 instead of 9-1. In the 3rd inning vs a avg at best pitcher and horsefeathers bullpen and on a day the ball is carrying, yeah it is a missed opportunity and horsefeathers managing Nah, this team is butt.

Yeah, real missed opportunity for it be only 5-1 instead of 9-1.

Capital knockers there, Rizz.
-
That was more of a dry squeaker.
-
If Bryant does anything here besides fart wetly in his pants I will be amazed.
-
Oh, to be that young and innocent again.
-
i'll never understand this. the sports media says stuff like this too. if you think the cubs are worse than you thought coming into this season, that's all the more reason to get more help, fix obvious holes, and win a very winnable division. I'm just sayin', one of you or Duke is going to have to drown to let the other one float to safety on that piece of wood.

This maybe could be the season dagger right here.
