it's called interdimensional particle-chess. Theo's playing it.

hahahahahah i found it this thread is a trash fire http://www.northsidebaseball.com/archive/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=59557 The only reason I remembered it was sneaky was because there was some other thread where he kept dismissing Trout's upside as Cesar Cedeno. Like normally you'd take a 50-war comparison as an upside, except trout has already eclipsed that total in 950 games (compared to Cedeno's 2000+)

That is not a good look. I feel bad for him, but then again some team would've traded for him if he was a better player. He's just not that valuable anymore. Remember when he was supposed to be a comparable or perhaps better value than Bryce Harper? yes yes yes, im pretty sure it was sneaky, that poor bastard

Jeter and Arod don't count

the perks of being verified, you can get exasperated keith law tweets directed at you

https://twitter.com/High_Heat_19/status/962418681564356609 Lol at everything about that tweet. This is extremely my horsefeathers
-
who would write such a thing wow
-
all the guys acting like they're baseball geniuses for pointing out that the back ends of long FA deals for pitchers are rough is really cracking me up. Like no horsefeathers, that's the bargain you make. It would be sick if we could all be the Astros or whatever and have a WS caliber roster based on home grown dudes and short-commitment trades, but the rest of us who are trying to win the world series need good players now. Lester is gonna be injured or bad at the end of his deal and I won't regret the signing in a second. Zobrist was awful last year and I couldn't stand watching him come to the plate but he's a horsefeathering Cubs legend for 2016. The Cubs are gonna have to play around some dead weight in a few years, sure, but they're great now. Meanwhile the Brewers won't have any 36-year old SPs dragging down their payroll, but they're mediocre now and they'll be mediocre then. Good luck with that.

NL Central: Reds, Pirates and others

love this motherfunker -
The idea that you should just never sign a big FA because the backend of the deal is never worth it is just ... it's something I'm shocked to hear from Kenny as he doesn't seem like a Take Guy.
-
ahh yes this is the good horsefeathers
-
alou was pretty big. at least as big as zobrist. Ooooh yeah, that's a good one.
-
it keeps mind fucken me that the cubs, who never ever ever sign a meaningful FA have signed Lester, Heyward (ok that was a miss,) Zobrist, and Darvish in 3 of the last 4 offseasons edit: and will likely head into the 2019 offseason as favorites to sign Harper edit again: im not counting dawson because that was weird and i was a child and yes i forgot about soriano BUT OTHER THAN THAT
-
I’m glad he ignore early enough to make it onto the cubs opening day roster on the show
-
I like how Theo said “oh y’all don’t wanna sign any FAs? Ok we’ll re-stock our rotation and pen with good players on insanely good deals, feel free to keep colluding.”
-
LMao we’re paying Yu John Lackey money

Someone give me brewers fan porn
-
holy horsefeathers his k/9 was 4.6 last year. That barely seems possible.
-
who is ervin santana would be a really bad jeopardy category for a lot of reasons over or under? THERES A GOD DAMMED AMBER ALERT GOING ON RIGHT NOW
-
good god if Ribbie sees tim's post using a slur for a part of the female anatomy this board is screwed
-
I think they're underselling the MIF and OF a little, as well as Willy who is a healthy season away from a 4.5 WAR year. If we do end up signing Darvish that is a pretty bad ass little roster.
-
It turns out the real Yu Darvish was the friends we made in this thread
imb replied to Cubswin11's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
every time i realize darvish isn't signing with the cubs i remind myself the last time anyone saw this guy he was busy sucking butt in the world series -
Man, I don't know. An ACL to big guys is fairly rare. There's not that many teams with cap space. I'm just not sure. I think he might have to settle for a bit less personally. not that it really makes things better, but it's an achilles, not ACL Yeah its actually worse. the history of comebacks from achilles tears in the nba is not good.
