  1. woah woah woah, the only 6 WAR RF in all of baseball last year were Mookie and Eaton, so I think that's not likely. Also I just learned that Heyward was worth more WAR than Jose Bautista last year.
  2. The chance that Rodon is just no good, and at least one of Gilotio, Lopez, or Kopech are injured is so high that i'm just planning to delight in their fans' tears.
  3. Eaton is really good but so much of it comes from being a good RF, and he's a little fragile. So either he moves to CF and loses value or Bryce does.
  4. holy horsefeathers what
  5. on the other hand, the nats are much closer to us talent wise than the freaking cards are
  6. the NL is gonna be pretty lit next year
  7. If they are really after Otani or Harper, this is the right move. I have loved Jansen for years but $90-$100 million for a closer just sounds like something you look back on and go "oh yeah that was dumb." Part of the reason we won so many games last year was because our SP was awesome, and this is likely the last year or Arrieta, so it makes sense to me to not to go into the season with a questionable pen.
  8. If Soler continues at his current pace, he'll approach Wade Davis' career WAR at some point in 2031.
  9. which portion of soler's 1.5 career WAR will you miss the most
  10. Seriously. I'm gonna extend the FO more than a one-month grace period after bringing us the first World Series in 108 years but that's just me
  11. lol good luck with that
  12. probably because he's dead
  13. ahahaahhaha the cubs won the world series what the hell
  14. keith law is still holding onto hope
  15. Let's laugh at the dodgers before they inevitably sign Harper and Machado http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2016/11/dodgers-must-cut-debt-to-comply-with-mlb-rules.html
  16. The Angels don't need to trade Trout, they need to draft better and supplement their roster with better smallish deals they cannot do at the moment because their drafts are all terrible and they have nothing to trade.
  17. i've been doing the same thing for 13 years. If you step into the batting cage, you've gotta know you're getting balls thrown at you
  18. underrated favorite of mine was "Cheesehead Cubs Fan." he had some weird meltdown when i made fun of his sig, which was a picture of some sports car photoshopped over a cubs logo. Oh and it had all the car's specs typed out on the sig.
  19. Wasn't that Deuce Base? Or Deuce Baseman? yep They let that guy around children.
  20. FIRST OFF, it was a dude. SECONDLY, no. post more pictures from when you got beat up uh oh, gammy's getting upset. better go scrub my linkedin
  21. Have you tried calling up a district supervisor? Ugh, give it a rest. Literally ten years ago. A similar time frame, of course, to when you got beat up by a girl and then posted pictures of your busted grill online for everyone to see. FIRST OFF, it was a dude. SECONDLY, no.
  22. Have you tried calling up a district supervisor?
  23. If Contreras OPSs .877 and those bullpen numbers hold up, the league may have to disband the Cubs for the good of the sport. *plugs numbers into spreadsheet* "Bill I have here that the cubs are expected to win 175 games next year?"
  24. Odorizzi is a FA after 2019, Bauer after 2020. Bauer has pedigree and offers TOR upside while Odorizzi I think has reached his ceiling as a solid MOR starter but has a safer floor, imo. There's definitely more volatility and uncertainty with Bauer. To the point a move to the bullpen may be the best use of him/his stuff in the future. I still prefer Bauer. I guess I just see Bauer as being a worse pitcher, so the additional year of a bad pitcher doesn't really speak to me.
  25. I'm having a hard time (without doing any research) liking Bauer better than Odorizzi. How much team control does odorizzi have?
