  1. im not gonna come down too hard on rizzo here, it could be a weak quote or defense of russell because rizzo is a bad person, or it could be a guy trying to say nothing and stay out of it and word vomiting a little bit.
  2. i don't know what rizzo's feelings are, but i don't see anything wrong with that quote Besides offering an opinion and then admitting that he has no idea what he's talking about? duuuuuuuuuuuuuude we are through the looking glass with you lmao
  3. what is it exactly about alzolay that people like
  4. the cubs cannot let this slide
  5. somehow justin bieber
  6. The Braves noise is imo due to a couple obvious factors * young team with good mix of offensive/pitching talent * about to win his division already without him * could be one 6-win player away from the top seed in the NL So from his perspective they would seem to align perfectly to suit him. From the team's perspective they may be willing to completely break the bank to sign him given how much talent they already have on cheap controllable contracts. This could all tie in with the recent-ish seemingly accepted idea that machado is going to bring in a bigger contract than Harper. If you buy that, maybe atlanta is letting people know they're willing to make that not so.
  7. i doubt we even make the wildcard game
  8. all i ask is that we both win on days milwaukee wins and also on the days they lose. their off days are fine either way
  9. i dont want to watch this game and yet i will
  10. Ted Lilly Is The Zodiac Killer
  11. Re-making this coaching staff one year after a nearly complete overhaul is going to be difficult. Are they just going to push out Brandon Hyde? hell maybe they like hyde to be the next guy considering the guy he replaced got a head job(nice)
  12. The Brewers still horsefeathers me up because I kinda like the moves they keep making but man it's awesome how inept the cardinals appear to be like the graveyard of cardinals saviors from just the last like three years is already so deep Aledmys Diaz (gone) Piscotty (gone) Grichuk (gone) Bader (already kinda blows) Paul Dejong (sucks) Pham (traded)
  13. I could see the FO re-remaking the coaching staff this year with an eye toward finding someone to be an in-house Maddon replacement soon. Maddon could either step away after next year if things go really well (or really badly) in these playoffs and 2019, or sign a short-term deal after 2019.
  14. chavez was an inspired pickup who i routinely forget about when im angsting about brandon funking kintzler but miss me with the de la rosa stuff. he sucks.
  15. hamels: Oh no goldschmidt is up i dont know what pitch to throw contreras:
  16. if you consider 2018 Javy Baez a shortstop, he's having the second best SS season by a Cub since 1960 (Ernie Banks had a 7 fWAR season in 1960.) If you consider 2018 Javy Baez a 2B, he's having the 7th best 2B season by a Cub (the first 6 are all Sandberg) since 1960.
  17. literally whoever has the best ROS will win
  18. This will be a surprise I’m sure, but Rogers is teasing bad news re: Morrow
  19. I really hope Hendricks gets his due alongside Rizzo, Bryant, Lester, Javy, in 10-15 years when everyone looks back at this Cubs era. None of this happens without him somehow unlocking a god mode changeup and succeeding wildly with a profile that no other pitcher in the big leagues has.
  20. Since 1950, there have been 20 10 fWAR batting seasons. Trout and Betts are both at 9.1 fWAR in only 129 games.
