I keep seeing people say this, and yeah, maybe it's bad overall. But we are on the back half of it being bad. Dude, just give me the Brewers offense. This is [expletive] brutal and not every team is this bad. The back half of it being bad, while sitting in a playoff spot. Let's keep talking about how we are a playoff team on July 21 and ignore what we are seeing. You are seeing a team that has struggled to score runs all season long but has remained competitive all season long. I sure as [expletive] don't like that the Cubs struggle to score far too often, but this over-the-top whining when the team is actually pretty good is stupid. Save your whining for when it is justified. -

It's actually pretty normal to feel that way if you've been watching a lot of the games. This is brutal viewing and quite boring, but I don't have it in me to ever quit on the Cubs. You don't have it in you to quit on the Cubs while they occupy a playoff position? You saint. http://www.franksfiles.com/sites/default/files/franks_uploads/applause.gif

is there a dead fan in Cincy? Because Thom is obsessed with how scary it is to sit close.

Castro with walks would be so much more tolerable.

looked to be a wide zone inside and out on Castro's K.

except it's not just a choice you get to make Well there's a bit of strength in numbers on the FA side, plus those aren't the only two options for adding rotation help to an already good rotation. The short version of my point is that Cole Hamels killed my parents and I hate his old stupid face. I am sorry for your loss.

what in the world lol. That has to be a joke, right? Besides being right handed and having the ability to play multiple positions in the infield...sure, why not? Outside of Baez's strikeout issues, he projects to be pretty similar to Machado if he reaches what most of us think he can be right? Great defense, +power and a 270 avg? I seriously doubt "most of us" project him to be similar to Machado.

David Price
jersey cubs fan replied to Cubbie Swagger's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
But his promotion did happen and that disaster did happen. Other big name promotions happened, but other guys kept climbing the ladder and there was a draft and international signings as well. A hell of a lot of people had huge doubts about Baez before his promotion, when he stunk it up even beyond the doubters level of fear, that poked a lot of holes in the hope balloon. -

Gammons Says McLeod Has Great Shot at Mariners Job
jersey cubs fan replied to Cubswin11's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I was hoping the team would be great before they broke up the band but I guess having the team merely be good will suffice. -
And then moved out of the infield entirely for the same reason. Was he not moved off of 3B because of Ian Stewart?
-
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.
-
If Castro was playing LF, then you'd have a point.
-
yeah, but barely
-
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 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.
-
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

yummy time

if you are already at the game I'm sure it can't be difficult to outnumber the reds fans.
