NL Central: Reds, Pirates and others
imb replied to Hairyducked Idiot's topic in General Baseball Talk
61 66 73 200 wins followed by 97, 103, 92 followed by 292 83 74 82 239 wins 68, 73, 86 227 The "long painful rebuild" misnomer always cracks me up. In the first three years after signing Epstein and Co., we won 200 games and went to the playoffs 0 times. The Brewers won a monstrous 239 games over that same span, also went to 0 playoffs, and have since won an astounding 65 fewer games (and 1 less world series championship) than the cubs. I'd say winning 227 games while watching us dick stomp the rest of the division the last three years has to have been more painful than 2012-2014. -
My dad woke me up to break the news to me and I cried like a bitch

That’s gorgeous

https://www.baseball-reference.com/bullpen/Game-winning_run_batted_in Since the Cubs never lost the lead after Zobrist's RBI, he would be credited with the GWRBI. I stand corrected. Sports need to get together on their game winning definitions. Me either!

Benzo gets "best cubs hit in history" even though Montero got the game-winner. cold blooded.

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.

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
