  1. They don’t have a 1B in the system so why not keep him and play him there? Not to mention, PCA is no guarantee to hit at the major league level.
  2. What? No I didn’t. I said it sucks and I hope it blows up in the face of every team that tries it. Blackhawks still haven’t accomplished anything on the ice. Also, not sure how preseason gambling odds on an individual award means anything. They are going to suck again next year.
  3. Are you sure the ncaa doesn’t have anti hazing rules? I don’t disagree with your point, but it does seem like they may have something on the books that cover this issue
  4. How hard of a job would that be to clean up? Show up day one and tell the players not to pretend to rape their teammates. it’s a big ten head coaching job, a million coaches would want it.
  5. Patty Fitz really screwed the pooch, eh?
  6. The future reacquisition idea that was never all that likely to happen, won’t happen. Debrincat traded to and signed extension with Detroit.
  7. A series win @ Yankees almost makes me miss working in the office. not really
  8. But there is, because they dug such a big hole they need to climb out of. It’s not May anymore. The season is more than halfway over and they’ve been mired in a several games under .500 record for a month and a half. If they don’t get within striking distance by august they’ll throw in the towel.
  9. The cubs should plan on finding a new 1B in the offseason.
  10. Yes, people gripe about the lineup every day. But that’s because of who is available on the roster. Hosmer played too much, but he was intentionally brought in to play too much. People begged for Mervis who came in and stunk. There aren’t good alternatives that Ross could be playing more to make this a much better team. That’s on the front office.
  11. I don’t quite get the idea of noting there are multiple black holes in the lineup and then blaming Ross. It’s not a good roster. The good guys aren’t great and the bad players are terrible. That’s on the GM. Ross probably doesn’t matter. It’s the roster.
  12. I really disagree. The problem is the “core”. They’re all secondary type guys. What they need is impact, high end players. Sure, if your entire team was Happ and Hoerner you’d be alright. But when those are two of your three biggest pieces…, you’re in trouble.
  13. What? No. That is not the problem. they cut costs and intentionally got worse it’s hard to get better after intentionally taking a step back. They need to constantly acquire and pay for assets. Their financial advantage is the only thing going for them since they cannot scout or develop.
  14. My guess is Swanson and 3-4 guys who aren’t currently on the major league roster.
  15. From a month ago: https://www.sportskeeda.com/amp/ice-hockey/ryan-donato-landing-spots-where-high-offensive-upside-forward-go-summer
  16. If you are stl, why wouldn’t you trade him to the Cubs? He does nothing for the long term competitiveness of the Cubs roster. They stink this year and probably want to shake things up. If the cubs go on a run and win a World Series this year or next, what is this hit you think they take from their fans? Are they not going to show up Next year? If anything, I think the cubs would be more hesitant to trade away prospects that will haunt them for the next 6-8 years, than Stl would be to give the Cubs a couple WAR boost that costs a lot of money.
