    Ok I'm calling it now. The Cubs pick up 3 runs this inning and make this bitch more interesting. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Soriano makes 14MM Jackson 13MM Hammel $6MM Castro $5,857,143 Shark $5,345,000 Schierholtz $5MM, Villanueva $5MM Fujikawa $4.5MM Wood $3.9MM Veres $3.85MM So of our 10 highest paid players, 4 play elsewhere or don't play, 1 is on the DL indefinitely, and 3 are awful. I thought the Yankees picked up some of Sorianos contract? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Mother of God. I have a really really really hard time imagining Gallo has more pure power than him. (per Law) Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Hahaha. Completely forgot about that scene but remember thinking how that would freak me the hell out. Also, caught between joint hotel room doors, too. Edit: didn't read your post fully and thought I remembered him being caught between some doors in the clubhouse? he was stuck inside like a cage/fence thing in their fake clubhouse That's what I was thinking. Thanks.

    Did anyone actually buy into the "partnership" and vote for both? I didn't. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Mendy in CF. I'm assuming that, I'm just thinking about the use of Lake's roster spot. Alcantara could be the use of that spot. Arismendy is here on Hendricks spot and I assume he'll rejoin the club after the ASB.

    They also had the same superstation benefit we do. Good point. I meant to add that in there last night but forgot. Chalk it up to the beer, I guess.

    That's how it was growing up in the Tampa area pre-Rays and Marlins. And even after they showed up, people still cared more about the Braves. The Southeast is also maybe the worst blackout region in the country. Being in Mobile, AL I'm blacked out from all Marlins, Rays, Braves, and Astros games. Nevermind the fact the closest team I can drive to see is 5 hours away. The Marlins are like 12 hours away. "Sorry, even though you're paying us to watch this game, you can't watch it! Why not buy a ticket and $250 in gas to go watch the game in person?" MLB Blackout rules might be one of the most infuriating things in my world. I kind of "lucked out" with my blackout regions. My hometown of Salisbury, NC I used to (still am?) blacked out of nats, o's, and braves. In Greenville, where I work, I *think* it's just the nats and o's (can get MASN on direct tv, which I used to have so it didn't matter). I'm currently in hell, err Lenoir Co., NC and it seems this is where MLB blackout officials stopped caring. There are no blackouts at all. More than that, when I was having trouble with MLB.tv (the iPhone/iPad app has been weak) pearlier this year, I typed in my area code 28504 and it said that it wasn't recognizable.

    Completely random side note: look at the stranglehold the braves have on the entire southeast. Raleigh, one of the fastest growing areas in the country, could definitely support and benefit from an MLB team. People always ask "Why are you a Cubs fan?" (my mother and her family and from the Chicago area and converted me young). To which I reply, "Why are you a Braves fan?". "They're just the closest team"... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    I'm hoping it's more like July. Starting with the big club wouldn't be a bad idea either. Might as well start getting the rough transition early. I'd love to see them bring multiple guys up at one time to diffuse the pressure and create a fraternity. I'm just hoping that IF he stays healthy they fast track him. It will spark excitement for the soon-to-arrive wave of Baez/Bryant/Russell and, like you said, hopefully curb his transition while the others cut their teeth. IF he continues to be a monster (and if he stays healthy we've yet to see any indication at all of the contrary), they don't have the same service time issues with him as with the others (I know there are still considerations but not as much as the IF prospects). It just seems logical and likely to me if he keeps beasting like he's been. Though, I know that's far from ever being a sure thing. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Start of 2015: Alcantara (CF/2B) Valbuena (3B) Rizzo (1B) Castro (SS) Soler (RF) Sweeny/Ruggiano (LF/LF and CF when Al Contra @ 2B) Castillo © Stopgap 2B/Utility player May 2015: Alcantara (CF - super sub) Rizzo (1B) Bryant (LF) Castro (SS/2B) Soler (RF) Baez (3B) Russell (2B/SS) Castillo © That's a hell of a lineup to dream about and it's plausible 10 months (or less) than now. I feel Baez ends up at 3B if Russell is ready at the same time, which pushes Bryant to the OF (not that he couldn't still occasionally play 3B). I don't know who to prefer at SS vs 2B in regards to Castro and Russell (basing all the minor league D via scouting, which is extremely subjective and conflicting) so I just left that up in the air.

    I think Soler will be a September call up and up for good in 2015. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    I'm guessing he's going to split time between 2B and CF Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    YESSSSSS. HES NEVER GOING TO TRIPLE A AGAIN, IS HE??

    It seems like the Cubs always get screwed on replays. Oh well.
  24. weis21
    I don't think you would. Chapman use to box quite a bit in Cuba. Yeah but Rizzo beat cancer's ass.

    That pitch almost hit him. Eff off, Mike Olt. That's on you.
