  1. I too am referring to overall value. Defense is part of overall value. Even if Lake outhits Castro the rest of the way (not a guarantee), he will be a worse defender and the overall value could easily be less than just sticking with a still crappy Castro. I cannot imagine they moved him off of SS "because of Castro". If a guy can play SS, he is inherently more valuable than the same guy playing LF. He began his pro career at SS but was moved around to other positions almost from the beginning.
  2. If Castro was playing LF, then you'd have a point.
  3. He sure as hell can be. A corner OF playing 2B sounds like a recipe for disaster. Especially one that has 600 PA of mediocrity at the plate. Figuring out AAA at 25 doesn't mean you changed anything for the better at the major league level, let alone mask what would be undoubtedly awful defense.
  4. 4 of those were in 2010 (admittedly had no idea he was that good that year), but combined after that he had like 1.5 over a season and a half. Still not great. There's a wide chasm between giant turd and still not great.
  5. Rephrase: The fact that he's doing anything remotely productive, after being a giant turd much of the time he was with us, is annoying. what the hell? byrd was a useful player with the cubs for a couple years
  6. if you are already at the game I'm sure it can't be difficult to outnumber the reds fans.
  7. Briggs' ego keeps getting in the way. He's done with the Bears. What kind of fool leaves their $100K sports car along the Edens @ 2AM? What the hell does something that happened 8 years ago have to do with anything currently happening (or more likely, not happening)? Stop being an enabler. Briggs was never a leader. please change brandon's title to "non-leader enabler"
  8. these announcers are confusing themselves in the playoff
  9. Briggs' ego keeps getting in the way. He's done with the Bears. What kind of fool leaves their $100K sports car along the Edens @ 2AM? A smart enough fool that doesn't want to deal with a DUI.
  10. Looks to be nothing but a couple retweets "that way" could easily mean Lexington, KY here: [tweet] [/tweet] While here is only acknowledges somebody who says it is 55 days to kickoff. [tweet] [/tweet]
  11. haha the warning is right on. I was just going to comment before you added that. It sounds like the guy is going to provide analysis, but he talks about the fact that he moved positions as some sort of proof he can adjust, and getting into fights means he cares.
  12. Dude hit Schwarber's mitt on the backswing. Backswing?
  13. Yeah, he sucks, but he did what he was asked there.
  14. It looked more out live than in replay. Surprised he called him safe the first time.
  15. I just realized that this post is a great allegory for Coomer's play-by-play. I feel your pain. Luckily I'm watching. They need to replace the entire booth. Pay has slipped and if he's taking innings off it makes it unlistenable. I wish they would stop trying to emulate santo because despite being loved and genuinely passionate, he actually wasn't any good at the technical aspects of the job. There has to be a poor mans Len out there for radio.
  16. I had a blast there once. Best part was cubahawk chopping in those khaki wearing racists chubby faces.
