  1. What if his BABIP drops 120 points like it will and he becomes an above-average hitter who sometimes plays catcher and is good for 3-4 WAR per year? Nah I'm pretty sure he's Babe Ruth reincarnated
  2. That's one of the most egregious examples of revisionist history the board has ever seen. They were and are jockeying for being in the WC round or watching from home. There wasn't much player position wise they could go for other than benching a developing player for someone which I didn't think was in question. They needed struggling players to get off the hump, which is what appears to be happening. vOv At the time I was like "Ben Zobrist would be nice" and didn't really see what else they could really do
  3. Yeah I mean in the grand scheme of things it's nearly impossible for them to catch the Cardjnals so you're jockeying for home in the wild card round. I suppose they coulda gone all out for Price to get another TOR rental for the playoffs but vOv They're gonna make the playoffs and hopefully add to the team in coming years and continue to make the playoffs
  4. I was perfectly happy with how the Cubs approached the trade deadline considering what was being asked for and what was on offer
  5. Well I'm glad they got those insurance runs lol. Even if they don't take tomorrow this has been an excellent series and a statement maker. Great gods damn team. Awesome job.
  6. Remember that it is terrible karma to waste lead off doubles, Cubs. Do not curse yourselves by all that is good and holy
  7. Freakin' Fransisco Liriano just hit a 3 run homer to give the Pirates the lead, lol
  8. Offensively, this is an ideal lineup Defensively, well, we'll see haha
  9. Weird that so many were adamant Bryant wouldn't be able to handle 3b but has done admirably well Projecting defense is really hard I guess
  10. the Nats have had some pretty scathing collapses recently. Would be all the worse to waste one of the greatest seasons by a player ever with Harper. But last I checked they had no other full time player with even a .800 OPS so I guess its not that surprising. Im all in favor of their complete decline if it takes one of the NL East teams out of the discussion in the Wild Card.
