Not so much an outcry over old tweets as much as just knowledge of all of his tweets.

The Cubs traded one last year and another the year before. And they traded for one the year before that.

Mike North appears to have deleted his twitter page rather than going back and scrub out problematic tweets.

what is this curse that has lasted 98 years?

Hendricks is pitching Saturday so normal rest would put him at the Thursday start. If they stick with that then Lester would be in line for Friday. But that would leave Quintana on 10 days rest for one of the Saturday DH and then Montgomery and/or Chatwood in the other game. My guess is they don't want either of those guys pitching in the doubleheader, since they are bound to get pulled early and tax the bullpen in at least one game. Then Monday the 23rd becomes an issue, since none of the current 5 would be on normal rest. Maybe they come back from the break with Quintana and Montgomery each coming off 8 days rest, then let Hendricks and Lester handle the DH with the hopes of saving the bullpen. Then it is all hands on deck for the Sunday game. They have to be ready to dial back Montgomery's innings. Maybe they'd be better off using Chatwood/Montgomery as a piggyback situation and calling up Underwood. Then again, we could be due for a Casey Coleman "take one for the team" start in this series. Anyway, this is a long way of saying that the 5 game series in 4 days coupled with 2 guys who can't be counted on for 6 innings means there are about a million combinations that can happen before we get to July 25/26. It depends on how they deal with the DH and who does/does not make it through 5 innings. Since they need 6 starters in 5 days, I'd imagine they use the 26th man on the double header to give a start to Underwood/Mills/Tseng. Starting Quintana Friday and giving Lester another day's rest(especially if he pitches in the ASG) to let him hopefully suck up a bunch of innings in one game of the DH makes sense too. That also pushes Montgomery to Sunday to give him that little bit more rest, although I don't think he needs to be aggressively reined in, especially for this month.

What does exposing him mean? Fan tunes into the ASG, “Hey, this guy looks cool, I’ll google him... WTF is this? Hey guys, what is this horsefeathers” Is that “exposing” him? I worked for a decade in the criminal justice system. I have to believe that people can learn from their mistakes, change, and grow into better people. I have no idea whether Hader has done so. If he has, he’s going to weather the storm and be just fine. If he hasn’t, he’s due for a pretty rough ride. It is very consistent with the way white people treated Obama. They thought having a black president would erase racism but were shocked that it turned out Obama addressed current issues of racism and blamed him for tearing the country apart. Shitty people are much more concerned that people talk about racism than they are that racism exists in the first place.

are we talking about dayglo?

There wasn't really a big spring training stunt like there has been before, the bounce castle was the closest but that was the FO more than Joe to my knowledge. I think it's more likely the themed roadtrip stuff happens later in the year as the grind sets in though, I'd be surprised if they went the whole season without that type of fun side show. I think they just did one where it was only the coaches wearing something themed

The Bud Norris types would probably want no part of playing for him. I'm pretty sure there was talk of Jon Lester convincing Lackey he could deal with Maddon. Also, there's a pretty big group of opposing fans, and Cubs fans, that view him as a blowhard A-hole so I am sure there are a lot of players that have that view.

possibility that schwarber will hit one of that orange buffoon in the white house

It never was just a meme

Other sports thread dorks. Take it elsewhere

Tanking is so much worse for the game of baseball than fewer balls in play. Baseball would be much better off if they stopped rewarding cheap ass teams for being cheap ass teams.

Too ethnic

Who? Yu. Darvish?
