  2. Now I feel like I jinxed the whole thing. Though I blame Seal Boy.
  3. This is hopefully shaping up to be the drubbing they and us so desperately need. Shocker, all of the usual doom boner suspects are nowhere to be seen.
  4. This hump on the mound is giving up hits to Heyward? He's toast.
  5. And 5-14 in their last 19. Horrid. 28-28 since Javy's walk off. Over 1/3 of the season. I'm sadly/stupidly convinced to change my wallpaper from Baez's walkoff.
  6. That could be totally true, I just think it's too early to make that call. We will see exactly how much he has left in the tank over these next 1-2 seasons. I think he'll be useful barring another serious injury these two seasons; it's after that where he's likely to be about league average at best based on how he's been steadily trending for multiple seasons. Given that he's essentially a gun for hire and they're not likely to win it all over the next couple of years, I REALLY hope the Bulls don't foolishly choose to keep him around given that they have basically no connection with him.
  7. No, it's I-hope-to-God-the-Bulls-don't-resign-him-wise. He'll be 36, and the Bulls really don't need to get caught up in the usual game of former stars who don't when to retire, no matter how big the cap is. Guys like that almost inevitably want too much money when they can do far too little.
  8. Even if players inexplicably ignore he's clearly not the player he used to be and that he's been steadily declining for 4 seasons now, again, he's almost certainly not on the team for more than 2 years. There's a ton of options out there for big name players who want to make big money, and the Bulls really don't stick out from the pack. If anything, I think Butler really stepping up and someone like Mirotic breaking out would have a lot more influence on getting someone big to sign than a short-termer novelty like Wade.
  9. Seems like wishful thinking and a lot of straw-grasping more than anything else.
