    Holy horsefeathers, nice anti-Cubs comeback win! Thanks for running this again, Southpaw19! I sort of gave up once I started getting clobbered, but it's always a ton of fun.

    Experience costs money. There's basically no chance they don't go cheap with the manager.

    What does your weird boner for other teams' pitching have to do with general Cubs chit-chat. Like, at least swerve it back to your even weirder vendetta against Nico or something.

    I'm surprised Yadi didn't charge the mound Molina knows what happens when he gets in the way of a Cubs pitcher.

    So apparently 90% of the pitching around baseball is trash, except for the 2015 Mets, the 2017 Dodgers, and the Brewers the last 2 seasons. Intriguing theory.

    Dumb would be thinking 1 season cancels out the other 4 where they showed their true tendencies. 2016 was out of the ordinary. I’ll rely on 2015, 2017, 2018, and 2019 to make decisions on who stays and who goes. But go ahead and keep thinking that the same guys will magically be able to hit when it counts :roll: You mean like two of those seasons they made the NLCS, won a WC game, won a division, led MLB in wins, won a Game 5 on the road in the DS and were the best second half team in baseball for a good chunk of those years? No, no; let him drill down on this. I'm dying to know who he wants gone.

    I think Girardi is too much of an obvious meatball for the FO to stand; Ross manages to dip his toes both in the "let's get someone who is more of a hard ass" gimmick, as well as being someone the fans and players would like. I keep seeing DeRosa's name coming up, but I can't imagine them going after someone who cranks up the goofball public persona to the nth degree right after everyone getting fed up with Maddon's dumb antics for jerks.

    Who should hang their heads more out of RD shame, the Cubs or the Indians?
  9. Sammy Sofa
    In a far better world they keep neither.

    Guys, come on; surely there's some merit to this "get rid of most of the team" approach. There's no way it could possibly turn out poorly.
  11. Sammy Sofa
    Fat players are the new market inefficiency. You heard it here first.

    Man, get Chatwood in there or something. Ryan's toast.

    Any particular reason Hamels was PH for?
  15. Sammy Sofa
    Eh; he did REALLY suck for a while down in the minors after that. I'm gonna say they made the right call in thinking he still had more to work out down there. But Russell was suspended and Descalso existed, so Happ could have added value at the beginning of the year Well, they weren't expecting Descalso to turn out to be the calamity he ended up being, Bote was hanging around, and they still had Zobrist at that point. Like, super shitty Happ wasn't going to bring any more value than those other guys sucking (well, the ones who didn't mysteriously disappear).

    BVE: Big Vic Energy.

    Him spending half the year in AAA was Top 3 most puzzling moves of the year Eh; he did REALLY suck for a while down in the minors after that. I'm gonna say they made the right call in thinking he still had more to work out down there.

    Happ horsefeathering slaps.
  19. Sammy Sofa
    [expletive], Hamels has been merciless so far.
  20. Sammy Sofa
    Man, I am feeling good about seeing a lot more Happ next year.
  21. Sammy Sofa
    It would be cool if Hamels sends off his Cubs career with a baller outing.
  22. Sammy Sofa
  23. Sammy Sofa
    Wait, why would it be either/or between Nico and Happ? 2B and CF both need to be filled.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    If they're going to give Happ more of a shot, isn't he likely to be the one that ends up in CF? Who would be less destructive between him and Nico at CF or 2B?
  25. Sammy Sofa
    I state again: trade them Theo.
