  1. Yeah work arounds. Then the cubs can just write it off.
  2. You can't give performance bonuses
  3. I'd rather have Keith Moreland than Mitch Moreland. I would as well, but whether we like it or not, he's a possibility to be trotting down 1B next year for us. Would be a stopgap and not the headline piece of any Garza trade, but a space filler. The Cubs better not be trading assets for space fillers.
  4. every level he played at, it went up each year. he showed a slight drop when moving to the next level then improved. Don't know why that wouldn't continue. Are you serious? You don't see any reason why a non-dominant minor league player's OBP won't continue to increase as he enters the major leagues?
  5. I believe it's somebody other than the Cubs because the odds are it is somebody other than the Cubs, not because it hasn't been leaked yet.
  6. The roster was littered with garbage long before Sammy arrived. The lineup has been a much bigger problem for the past decade than the rotation.
  7. Phil Rogers doing what Phil Rogers does best.
  8. I think you have to throw Hanie out there to take the punishment for how horrible he has been this month. He's been absolute garbage. I can't believe they aren't going to get past 7 wins. My bets are ruined.
  9. and the chief of police
  10. Wait, I didn't notice this before. How the hell is there definitely a benefit to signing this guy to a deal that guarantees $8m?
  11. I'm not seeing anything. I do see 2 ESPN stories about PSU though, one about JoePa's legacy: http://espn.go.com/blog/sportsbusiness/post/_/id/158/paterno-legacy-likely-trails-coaching-icons and one about the trial http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/7359173/former-penn-state-officials-gary-schultz-tim-curley-face-trial-perjury
  12. That's because they can't be traded until July.
  13. Apparently everybody else found out about this story in the last 2-3 hours.
  14. I have two questions marks about Darvish, while I expect him to be good, there's still quite a bit of variance on what we can reasonably expect out of him. And two, while Fielder's longevity issues are real, a pitcher never has the upper hand in that debate, especially one coming over from Japan.
  15. Isn't he essentially the same age that Daisuke was when he was posted?
  16. you seem hung up on the 30 mil number when it's actually just over 5 million per year. either you're doing it wrong or you're being purposefully misleading. There's also a fairly substantial difference between what good prospect is and what a great prospect is.
  17. for the record, I wouldn't cry if Coco Crisp was on the team. I just think he's not the type of player this organization should be going after, and if they do go after such a player we're essentially playing not to suck next year instead of trying to be good. He has no long-term value and only marginal short-term value. Unless this team actually finds impact players elsewhere, he serves no purpose other than being a placeholder.
  18. Wow, that's actually pretty impressive. I've gone from laughing at his stupidity to grudgingly giving him respect. I'm still going to laugh at his stupidity because the idiot KNEW that the Feds were watching him since at least July and he didn't back off or lay low for a while. I don't think he knew they were watching him, I think he thought he got away with something in July and was now scott-free.
  19. Not sure where you're getting that, even if you don't include defensive value. br.com, 0.7, 1.5, 1.5, 0.8. Right through his prime
