Look, the waves and waves thing clearly worked out, but the FO seems repeatedly stymied by the tidal pool of relief pitching. That metaphor works, right? -
Yeah, the catching prospect coming up and looking amazing happens all the damn time.
-
If Castro had stayed on the Cubs he would have continued his phoenix-like glory, d'uh. Clearly this is the result of a broken heart.

Now that Contreras is here and real and beautiful, Montero is just a bag of meat to me. I hear ya...Willson certainly takes the sting out of Montero's sudden inability to play baseball. I still like the guy and wish he was better though. A big part of it is I find him very disconcerting to look at. Any time my Cubs team can be better-looking, I'm all for it.

Thaaaaaat's the stuff.

That'll do, Warren.

I think Montero is dying.

Stuff is pretty decent. Command is still a bit iffy, but not horrible. The HR was a pitch that drifted over the middle of the plate, but he's mostly been around the edges. Though it is the Reds.

Mods, please change his name to Rondo Fan PLEASE. Just do it. All you have to do is take off the the 'n" Montero Fan would be better. Walked into a Fan would be best of all.

Nice dancing, Adam.

Sounds exactly like the NBA Not really....5 years ago the Warriors were one of the saddest franchises in the league, now they are the evil empire. Cleveland is a [expletive] city and hardly a traditional power, but they just won a title. Indiana recently went through a run where they were a legit challenger to LeBron's Heat teams. Using that "Top 4" Premier league team concept above, here are the conference finalists the last few years 2016: Golden State, Oklahoma City, Toronto, Cleveland 2015: Golden State, Houston, Atlanta, Cleveland 2014: San Antonio, Oklahoma City, Indiana, Miami 2013: San Antonio, Memphis, Indiana, Miami 2012: San Antonio, Oklahoma City, Boston, Miami 2011: Dallas, Oklahoma City, Chicago, Miami 2010: Los Angeles Lakers, Phoenix, Boston, Orlando That's 16 teams that have made the top 4 in the last 7 years, over half the NBA. Of those 16 teams, only 7 made repeat trips, and the most any one team made it is 4 of the 7 years. Miami (4), OKC (4), San Antonio (3), Golden State (2), Cleveland (2), Indiana (2), Boston (2), Toronto, Houston, Atlanta, Dallas, Chicago, Phoenix, Orlando, Los Angeles Lakers, Memphis That is a beautiful Derwood-dismantling.

I was randomly looking up Meat Tray the other day and was surprised how long ago it was he started his time with the Cubs; for some reason I pictured him not showing up until the 2005-2006 years of muck, and not in the middle of 2003 awesomeness.
-
If only Lester had spent most of his career pitching to other catchers.
-
13 straight starts going in to today, only 4 of which were at C (plus 3 games where he switched to C). Doesn't seem too egregious, plus it would be surprising if he didn't get a day off any day now.
-
Love the HUGE, glaring caveat.

Dammit, why can't the other pitchers not be sucking right now so I can fully soak in a steaming pot of Lackey hatred.
-
I am baffled as to why they do anything except just pitch meatballs down the heart of the plate to Hamilton. If he manages to somehow get a hit, whatever, but don't horsefeathering walk him so much.
-
doesn't sound like me http://itstrulyrandom.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/robot-big-fat-liar.jpg

I think this is like the third time (and third girl) Almora has been engaged with since we drafted him. I think I remember seeing that he got this one pregnant, though. I for one will not be shocked when it comes out looking like [whatever nationality Russell is]
-
That lineup pleases me.
-
OK, I won't, because who the hell wants to talk to Mets fans.
-
All of those hugs were just trying to figure out the best place to put the knife.
