    The sad thing is there are lots and lots of Cubs fans who completely embrace this mentality. I almost think they'd be horrified if they started spending a ton again.

    You DO realize how terrible Bryant has been for weeks now, right? Obviously we want him back in the lineup ASAP so he can hopefully get it going again, but it's not like the lineup is hugely downgraded at the moment having Herrera instead of him for a game or two.

    They don't really have any players with bad contracts right now.

    Calm the [expletive] down; no, they don't.

    I love how everyone watching is some level of worried/freaked out, too. Ohhhh, white people.
  6. Sammy Sofa

    Posey's disinterested glance back made me lose it.

    Sammy Sofa replied to Tim's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk

    Because that's something you can just do with no repercussions. Is it? Because who the hell knows, assuming the player is down with it. As I recall, a few years back when Zack Greinke came out with his social anxiety disorder, and suddenly underpermforming players such as Dontrelle Willis and Milton Bradley were coming out of the woodwork saying "oh yeah, I have that too," there was debate (I believe S.I.) over whether or not a seperate DL for "mental breaks" should be a thing. Maybe it should be. Cripes. No, I was being sarcastic. Starlin isn't going to agree to a phony injury to be shut down for 2 months in a playoff race so that someone younger and cheaper can take his job, thus ending his season with the worst numbers of his career. Plus social anxiety disorder is an actual diagnosis, and then SCS starts going on about a DL about nebulous "mental break" stints. If a player goes on the DL for something like SAD it's for actual medical reasons, not because he just needs some time to clear his head or have a timeout because they're playing poorly.

    Man, that archive is a [expletive] goldmine (and it is an acceptable shorts situation): http://www.trbimg.com/img-55ba32f2/turbine/chi-trainingcamp-ct0021254759-20060727/750/422x750

    Don't think they are going to outright bench Castro when Baez comes up, Castro will still be starting more than Herrera has. I'm guessing we'll see equal playing time between Baez/Castro/Russell when Javy comes up between 2B/SS/3B (Bryant to the OF a little more). Either way, they're bringing up a MI and presumably Herrera would be the one to get the boot. Utley doesn't have a spot in that mix if they're sticking to their roster design.
  15. Sammy Sofa
    Aren't they likely going to replace with Herrera with Castro when Baez comes up? Going after Utley now seems to speak that maybe they're not bring up Baez until September.
  16. Sammy Sofa
    All the Cubs can do to help is win; just ignore the rest.
  17. Sammy Sofa
    If Baez ever hits .300 for the season I'll eat a truck.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    You'll be pissed no matter what. Cubs win this, 5-3.

    Teagarden had a game-winner against Chapman. We're in no position to get huffy. Hahahahahaah! It was in a tie game, not a 2 run deficit. As unlikely as that occurrence was, totally different situation. Oh, just take your medicine.

    Baez is going to strike out a bajillion times even if he becomes a perpetual all-star. Just roll with it and pray for dongs. Lots of dongs.
  22. Sammy Sofa
