    as reported back at the beginning of year by an anonymous Cubs scout, Kyle Schwarber is "Babe effing Ruth"

    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
  11. BigSlick
    Castro keep your bat on your shoulder please
  12. BigSlick
    nice, nice.
  13. BigSlick

    Give us a Salami, Soler, thanks

    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

    our kryptonite

    HR/FB home: 20.4% HR/FB away: 5.4% lmao

    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
  19. BigSlick
    Oh

    I love so much that Rafael Soriano has been placed on the DL with ""shoulder inflammation""

    (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.

    I still never understood the hate for Aramis, who played at just a nudge below HOF level for the Cubs for like 10 years He's still the only player i ever bought a shir-sey of, and I'm glad he's still had some success in the MLB. The criticisms of his "hustle" strikes me just as strangely immaterial of the "Castro doesn't have his head in the game" stuff. I couldn't care one iota about either of those impossible to prove criticisms, I care if they hit or not.
  23. BigSlick
    Wait What
  24. BigSlick
    Here's hoping Dan Haren's Old Man Magic of keeping the least amount of Baserunners from scoring continues I'm sure he's going to regress to the mean at least a little bit but at least he's not Dallas Beeler
  25. BigSlick
    This stat is so bananas. If this team had a slightly better than average offense it would be one of the best in the league.
