  1. He's Adam Dunn right now Why do people keep saying this like it's a bad thing. It would be a HUGE improvement if he was Adam Dunn right now. Unless you're saying he's Adam Dunn at the disgusting end of his career. I didn't assign value to his being Adam Dunn. Just saying he's a 3 true outcome hitter right now He's only two of those outcomes at the moment
  2. Listen Cubs just win this game without event because I want to watch this GOP travesty ok
  3. I really don't get it. I had no idea park factors could change *this* much. I guess we've had a very mild summer to this point...(and the obvious thing, the added video board etc)
  4. These last two pitches don't even really show up in the frame on Gameday
  5. as reported back at the beginning of year by an anonymous Cubs scout, Kyle Schwarber is "Babe effing Ruth"
  6. Fowler don't go back to being bad again please, it was nice when you were Good
  7. Castro was in an unfortunate situation with the pitcher behind him so I imagine he felt like he had to swing, but honestly, given how wild this guy is, there's no reason to take the bat off your shoulder until he shows he can give you 2 strikes
  8. Castro keep your bat on your shoulder please
  9. I wouldn't swing at anything until hes got 2 strikes on me
  10. I don't get why you guys are so caught up in things like this. Some players/pitchers aren't championed in the minors and can develop into really good players in the majors. It happens quite often actually. we have a persecution complex
  11. HR/FB home: 20.4% HR/FB away: 5.4% lmao
  12. Hunter Pence has that stupid goofy grin and dumb lanky limbs that fly everywhere. He's like the living embodiment of annoying, like Jeff Francoeur
  13. I love so much that Rafael Soriano has been placed on the DL with ""shoulder inflammation""
  14. (well, starlin does dumb [expletive] often enough that the criticisms are pretty valid) that said, completely unrelated to starlin and aramis, but defense matters too, now. you might've missed the memo. i got it like 4 years ago. I very much agree, and didn't want to give the impression I don't think defense matters. I still don't know what defensive stats to really trust though, and I know we've come a long way but there's still wildly different results that come in from BR to Fangraphs to this day. If you (or anyone else really) has dependable stuff to look at I'm eager to read up on them! Aramis was graded at bad, average, or solidly above average between various stats and scouts.
