Oh good, nobody's been doing that around here lately. Needed change.

Don't you think "oh no I might get released from my extremely high paying job in sports" is much more of a deterrent to bad behavior than "oh no I have to attend a few therapy sessions"? I’m sure he’s much more worried he’ll get released because he can’t hit than because of bad behavior. Not worried enough to adjust his lifestyle choices.

Why are the Cubs obligated to positively affect his life? I'd rather they positively affect the fanbase watching them by demonstrating that domestic violence has serious consequences. They aren't obligated. But wouldn't it be great if they used the influence to at least try. Not for Addison Russell but, going forward, if an organization like the Cubs actually held him accountable and other players took notice, maybe this happens less in the future. Make him actually go to counseling. Make him do more than just give lip service to doing the right things. After he's done that, if they're not convinced he's changed for the better than publicly and loudly blast him into a billion pieces. If the Cubs released him tomorrow and someone else picks him up, he will have learned nothing and will probably do it again. Women seem to like this guy.

I watched every episode of that show, unfortunately. http://pixel.nymag.com/imgs/daily/vulture/2013/09/23/23-dexter-1.w529.h352.jpg

theo deserves extreme scrutiny on issues like this one, not the benefit of the doubt. i wish they’d just release russell, but i guess i get it if they trade him for nothing instead. if they bring him back, i think that will probably be it for me as a fan of the team. Just out of curiosity, why are you still a fan now after the Chapman trade then? On some levels, I think Chapman was worse as the front office goes because they choose to go get him with the knowledge of his past. Not to speak for tree, but I imagine it's more of a "straw that broke the camels back" scenario, after Chapman, Murphy, and now Russell.

mad men gif of man yelling "not great duke!"

He talked about some players having mental hurdles they weren't able to overcome. That made me think of Chatwood and Edwards.
-
So...he'll miss like a month, month and a half at the start of the season. oooooh that'll learn him good.
-
OK then who is the one above Lester. Too many white-ish guys with full beards Webster I think? -
Guy next to Hendricks is Chatwood.

That's not right. The first opt out is just an opt out. He has another next year, that requires the 550 PA's. https://www.bleachernation.com/2015/12/16/breaking-down-jason-heywards-complicated-contract-and-his-likelihood-of-opting-out/

Congrats, even if I don't really understand what this means, lol.

Well these guys are safe.

Anyone want to guess who that was? Probably wasn't Murphy but I want to believe.

The way too early, but I'm bored, Off-season Options Thread
Banedon replied to davell's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I wonder if Heyward will opt out? ... -
Well done on managing the game threads this season, Sammy.
-
I mean, I'm ok with Joe still managing, even though he's far from perfect. But lets settle down there Rizz. But put Chili out on his ass.
