  1. I didn’t say he was one of the best, but he is average and has had an above average season. Stow your argument away, it’s materially and objectively wrong. You said " he’s solidly average or above average defensively". Neither is true. I repeat what I said before, he is playing LF because the NL doesn't have a DH and LF (or 1B) are the places you hide big-time sluggers with defensive liabilities. No you're wrong. I mean you're just totally wrong by all measures of man and god Provide the numbers that say the opposite or go away
  2. This is a crummy way to lose the win streak (I guess there’s no non-crummy way to lose a game)
  3. I don’t care what the numbers say, I don’t care if there’s “evidence” to the contrary, the Cubs are the worst team in the history of sports to score after a lead off double
  4. I liked Darvish better when he was an injured unknown Now he’s alive but sucks, which is worse
  5. He’s not one of the best but he’s had several seasons to prove he’s solidly average or above average defensively. You should drop this point of argument because you’re losing it. He’s totally fine as an outfielder. Schwarber has worked hard to be an OF, has made good progress, and he has a very strong arm for a LF, but anyone who thinks he is one of the best or above average defensively is delusional. I didn’t say he was one of the best, but he is average and has had an above average season. Stow your argument away, it’s materially and objectively wrong.
  6. Kyle Schwarber is one of the best LF in the game defensively and you don't know how to evaluate talent as well as you believe you do. If you think Schwarber is one of the best LF in the game defensively, then you REALLY don't know how to evaluate talent. He’s not one of the best but he’s had several seasons to prove he’s solidly average or above average defensively. You should drop this point of argument because you’re losing it. He’s totally fine as an outfielder.
  7. I haven’t checked his numbers but I really hate this Brad Brach guy
  8. I know it’s Hendricks up but get some runs you worthless shits
  9. When is Rizzo gonna dig an April/May hole so deep he can’t get out of it with an above average season? These starts keep worrying me. (I know we’re still below 100 PA)
  10. Baseball has been upgraded from “bad” to “mediocre”
  11. Friendship ended with Rizzo and Bryant, now Descalso, Heyward, Baez and Contreras are my best friends
  12. I think the Cubs should play the Marlins every day
  13. This should count as a home run, come on now
  14. Looking at the Reds and Pirates numbers vs. everyone else and its almost as if those two teams are playing a totally different sport
  15. I know its fewer than 20 games, but we look at pythagorean for Football teams and.... Baseball is really stupid
  16. Brandon Kintzler is definitely not my first pick out of the pen, but go off
  17. Computer: why are Kris Bryant and Anthony Rizzo so bad and why is Jason Heyward so good? The world has been thrown upside down
  18. Jason Heyward having a barrel rate of 2.9% for an entire year is so funny to me. I don't really know what the normative line for an average major leaguer but the fact that Jason Heyward only got the barrel of his bat on one ball out of 50 throughout 2018 is hilarious That dude spent 3 years being complete dog shite. He looks better so far but I will literally not believe he's having a good season until its like, August, and his numbers are still ok.
  19. One thing this team will be able to do: score a lot of runs I’m looking forward to Contreras having a bomb ass year and gunning for an MVP spot
  20. He realy is there if you desperately need someone to commit an out, it’s very consistent
  21. Zaidman is like.....5 seconds behind the crowd. I knew something good happened well before he said it.
  22. lol are they gonna record 3 outs on balls at the warning track or even deeper? i hate baseball and i hate the cubs
