They'd have a max of 2 home games in the NLDS if they win the WC game. The NLDS isn't best of 7? dude's gettin' all mojo up in here with his surprising lack of knowledge in baseball

Petition to change your name to "HunterPenceNoneTheRicher." Kiss me -
I'd take that with a huge grain of a salt.

Uh, 'cause it's dumb as [expletive] Working lights! Working elevator! It fires rockets! It can hold all of your vehicles! An amplifier with a microphone! You're a monster! Your mom had working lights and an amplifier for her microphone but I still got bored just as quickly as anybody who owned this thing.

You know this but I love gluten That's a dumb toy. I never wanted big nonsense things that did nothing. That's the [expletive] some spoiled brat had just to show off and he never played with it because there was nothing to play.

DL = DiamondMind's Lap Yeah, that one will be tough to top for at least today. Nice work. ETA: Hahahahahahahhaha I'm sure it's not that tough to top diamondmind's lap. -
The theme that the Cubs did not produce a decent position player after Grace is a much discussed topic. There's nothing weird about this thread and the karma concept is just silly. Corey Patterson was a flash in the pen whose career ended before it began no thanks to playing for exactly the wrong type of manager when he showed up. Felix Pie and Ronny Cedeno are jokes. They did nothing in the majors and may even have negative WAR. Sam Fuld is also in the middle of another trademark 0 WAR season. Theriot had a handful of acceptable seasons, whereas Soto probably had the same number, but multiple better seasons. As a catcher, whose careers tend to start late and can end early, I think he's a good enough end point where the Cubs developed their own quality position player. And it was that lack of position player developmental success that made it impossible for the Cubs to succeed consistently in the MacPhail (and pre-MacPhail) era despite a huge influx of spending and a renewed investment in the system (pitching). There's nothing weird about this concept.

we just can't avoid the cliques

You can see it right up there. ha you're right at least he spared us by wearing knee high black socks (this is how you know he gives no [expletive]...nobody on earth thinks that is a good look) kankle high?

It's more like playing piano without toes or winning a gunfight with an onion tied around your belt, but actual guns in your hand, because you know, the thing that matters is that he pitches well and the other stuff is a distraction.

this guy didn't read I read what you wrote in the title, and then didn't understand why Palmeiro didn't count. So I posted that. if he counts for having one halfway decent season as a regular, then rizzo and russell count as home grown. hell, theriot had better seasons as a cub. That's kind of a weird way of posing the question, I guess. In order for it to really be "produced by the Cubs" I'd probably want the criteria to be: + Drafted by Cubs + Debuted with Cubs + Had X seasons in MLB as a starter for the Cubs

You kind of are. Professional athletes play the games they play because they are highly compensated to play them. There is a competitive angle to it all but a guy with a ring isn't going to be all that excited to go to a team that has a chance of making the wild card game. This is his job. Don't think of it as a never ending search for postseason glory. It's a job. -

Are they installing tracks for the Silver Spoons train in the clubhouse? http://cdn.mademan.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/silver-spoons-460.jpg

God damnit...I knew I had forgotten someone. I'm 50/50 on the Russell thing I guess. You can't count him. I think the story is they spent thirty years between Grace and Soto. That is the reason this organization has only been good for a couple seasons at a time. For a few years they produced nobody, but when they actually put effort into the farm they stupidly focused on nothing but pitchers. They deliberately emphasized pitching prospects over hitters and came away with quite a few good pitchers that didn't last, and no bats.

I think you have to count Geovany Soto and cannot count Russell.
