    because i'm pissed at the guy that sucks rather than the guy who is good who just didn't get it done because baseball is baseball I'm just saying, it's pretty much expected that Castro and Ross are going to fail at this point. It's a miracle if they do anything productive. Mr. A Billion MPH off of the Bat was the one we were actually counting on. i know but i'm just fed up with watching castro fail by doing stupid [expletive] and looking completely incompetent Look, it's probably the last game I can in any way defend one of my favorite Cub players ever, and I'm going to do it, dammit.

    Castro clearly sucks, so it beats me why people are more pissed at him for failing there than the guy before him who has been hitting well lately. Anger is a weird thing.

    Good job, butt plugs.

    How did Soler not drive him in? My Gameday made his AB vanish.

    Nobody beats the Rizz.

    You couldn't pick Almora out of a lineup of one Good. He's a zilch.

    I've always been calling him Crandall.

    DiamondMind has to be related to sontensei or something. He treats him like he's a picked on younger sibling.

    Kemp at home this year: .269 .322 .440 .761 Kemp on the road: .243 .289 .381 .670 Why would getting him away from SD help his offense again?
  13. Sammy Sofa
    He's already entered those years. In Kyle Years he should already be in a nursing home.

    The Marlins tried to psych out the Nationals during batting practice...with fart sounds: http://deadspin.com/the-marlins-played-fart-noises-during-the-nationals-bat-1721054382

    How do you figure that? Fangraphs doesn't even have this as his worst year defensively. BR has it barely off or essentially the same as most of his other years. There really hasn't been a significant downturn for him defensively this season.

    too much hot sauce man Nah, it's nothing like that, though I do love the hot sauce. This isn't a Taco Bell-style, "holy heck, get out of the way, I'm going to destroy the bathroom"-situation; it's like the burrito somehow pushes everything out as it makes its way through and then when it's time to go, oh yeah, it's going to be epic.

    Assuming he and Bryant probably go together, Bryant's gametime stomach distress is starting to make a lot more sense. I love me some Chipotle, but man, it tends to blast me completely out.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    Yeah, that seems like a pretty ridiculous and pointless swap unless it's part of something bigger.
  19. Sammy Sofa
    Oh thank Jah, the money would be neutral. Who would win in a fight, Gandalf's giant eagle or Mothra?

    How often do you actually see or hear about a player turning out to be the much vaunted "clubhouse cancer" if they're not a hyper-intense weirdo or an out and out psycho like Milton Bradley? Castro has always seemed really laid back and good-natured; hell, it's one of the things that the people who don't like him tend to scream about the most.

    Mission Impossible?!? Talk about taking one for the team. I was thinking the same thing and then went on to Rotten Tomatoes and it has a 92%! What the [expletive]? The Mission Impossible movies are generally pretty solid, stand alone affairs with not much story and about the best stunts you can expect to see on screen. Certainly beats another Bourne movie or some crap. The MI movies turned out pretty damn good after the first two were so lackluster; what's your beef with the Bourne movies? Never saw the spinoff one, but the actually trilogy was good as hell.

    I looked at it like, "if even ARCubsFan thinks your anti-Castro ranting is too ridiculous, then you should probably stop and take a deep breath and reassess."
  23. Sammy Sofa
    yeah i agree get a good pitcher, dump castro, call up baez and break the season record for K's while enjoying the wind blow in all the homers. They don't need to "dump" Castro; if they can anything of any kind of value, great, but they shouldn't get rid of him just to get rid of him. Worst comes to worst he just becomes your primary backup IF and a good bench option.

    I'd be fine with them only making a move or moves for pitching at this point. I'd like some kind of offensive upgrade, but by now there really isn't much out there that fits, and I'm willing to bet on things like Baez and Fowler being more like the old Fowler and Rizzo going back to being Rizzo and Bryant's recent monster WTP starting to go out and Russell and Soler continuing to trend in the right direction. Get a clear starting pitcher upgrade and maybe (but not necessary) and a decent reliever to bolster what's been strong for them this year and then see what happens.

    Flipside to what? As of TODAY, nobody has a clue whether or not the Dodgers make the postseason = 2 month rental. The flipside to your post about the Cubs playoff chances dropping so much in short order is that they still could fly right back up in short order.
