    Crazy to think Justin Upton is only 27 (soon to be 28) when he's been in the league forever. It also feels like he's already gone through his arc as a player when he is entering the years that (historically considered, sometimes disputed) to be his peak.

    One one hand I understand why the Cubs FO is 'aggressively shopping' Starlin Castro, on the other hand, I understand why no team is particularly interested in one of the worst players in the league right now

    Bryant in the early 2000s would have totally hit 40 home runs his rookie year EDIT: Good God, Pat Burrell's rookie year in 2000 OPS of .822 was good for only a 106 OPS+ I miss the early 2000's :bye:

    So should we expect the Cubs to make a deal now that the most high-profile targets have been gobbled up? I guess Shields is still on the radar?

    :? Bryant's batting average has dipped below .250 It saddens me to see his nice slash line drop, its important to me, aesthetically, that his OPS stays above .800 for his entire season
  6. BigSlick
    It was good to win that
  7. BigSlick
    Alright everybody, get ready to squeeze your butt cheeks
  8. BigSlick
    To be fair, Rizzo's first homer was pretty surprising and "unlikely"
  9. BigSlick
    Looking at At-Bat it looks like Bryant is missing meatballs right down the middle of the plate :(

    It's nice that Schwarbs is still reaching base at a nice clip
  11. BigSlick
    Regardless of what happens, what an excellent game by Lester
  12. BigSlick
    Surely Jonathon Herrera must feel bad about himself today
  13. BigSlick
    "In play, runs" is a rude thing to see
  14. BigSlick
    STOP TRYING TO STEAL
  15. BigSlick
    Well, at least they're reaching base more often *queue the bullpen disastrously wrecking the game*
  16. BigSlick
    Oy please don't attempt to steal bases with Schwarber batting
  17. BigSlick
    I feel bad for Addison Russell who basically has no chance to score if he gets on with David Ross- Pitcher - Jonathon Herrera behind him
  18. BigSlick
    Yeah Lester has actually been really good this year since the first like 5 starts when he was kinda bad
  19. BigSlick
    Scoring runs before the other team scores runs is a good practice, IMO
  20. BigSlick
    ahhh, this feels like Jay Cutler all over again, surely it'll have the same good results with these excuses

    Baez

    In case folks missed it, his first home run was on a pitch way up in the zone that he'd probably whiff at 11 times out of 10 last year http://www.milb.com/multimedia/vpp.jsp?sid=milb&content_id=306148483 Here's his 2nd: http://www.milb.com/multimedia/vpp.jsp?sid=milb&content_id=306227283 not a terrible pitch to swing at when you're down 0-2. 2nd one was just a hanger. That first pitch isn't even a strike, its like a ball above your collar there, impressive stuff Get him up!

    it seems like Castro is being ritually sacrificed for a good harvest like in the Wicker Man I approve

    Baez

    BigSlick replied to sontensei's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk

    Someone on twitter said Javy Baez has hit more extra base hits in those 3 at bats than Starlin has hit in the last 22 games he's played, which I don't have the energy to check but my gut says is true
  24. BigSlick
    High contact guy that never had much power or took too many walks, I wouldn't have thought he'd age well anyway
  25. BigSlick
    He has his millions of dollars. I HAVE NOTHING! Other people feeling pain is the most approximate feeling i know to happiness. And this is why capitalism still exists as an economic system
