  1. he was doomed because he's ryne sandberg He probably could have hidden his weaknesses by inheriting a better ballclub.
  2. he actually claims to have never had alcohol, iirc, according to one of the beat writers (can't remember which) the lack of tolerance built up over time explains the constant hangovers
  3. Everything is coming up gay today. [tweet] [/tweet]

  5. So it sounds like they are going to shut down the catcher thing after a while and probably move him into LF for a short period of time before a callup? I'm hoping this is something they'll do closer to August than September. Lots of other interesting stuff here: http://www.bleachernation.com/2015/06/26/theo-epstein-speaks-buyers-and-sellers-lester-schwarber-maddon-more/ Such a scenario seems like an obvious September call-up situation strictly for 2015 bat purposes. Then he can go back to AAA to catch more in early 2016.
  6. http://www.fangraphs.com/scoutboard.aspx?draft=2015int&type=0&pos=all&sort=0,d He has the Cubs signing the following players, with a projected bonus: 18. Aramis Ademan, SS, Dominican Republic - $2,000,000 23. Christopher Martinez, 3B, Dominican Republic - $1,500,000 21. Yonathan Perlaza, SS, Venezuela - $1,200,000 31. Jonathan Sierra, RF, Dominican Republic - $1,200,000 35. Miguel Amaya, C, Panama - $1,200,000 39. Anderson Amarista, RHP, Venezuela - $1,200,000 41. Yunior Perez, RHP, Dominican Republic - $650,000 NR Luis Diaz, SS, Dominican Republic - $350,000 He has the Dodgers signing Lucious Fox for $5.5 million (!) and doesn't have a team yet for Cuban defector Julio Martinez. So he has them signing a whole bunch of "good" prospects but not in on any of the elite? That seems pretty cool to me.
  7. It's not just the season. He came off as an unfriendly, crotchety guy at the Cubs Convention too. He looked like he wanted to be anywhere but there I can't imagine more than a handful of players would actually want to be at the Cubs Convention. Former players in need of attention and a paycheck sure, but I would be skeptical of actual current players that wanted to be there.

  9. http://deadspin.com/angry-umpire-demands-that-jon-lester-fight-him-1714125640 Deadspin is upset with the angry ump trying to start a fight, but I noticed in the video Len and JD were both essentially taking the ump's side, saying that Lester had been gesturing and barking at the ump all game by then.
  10. Flu like symptoms, aka hangover for second time.
  11. Last year it seemed like they were doing it a lot. Maybe they're course-correcting. Something to do with lack of partnership with ABC7?
  12. I didn't know that about Ross so I reserve the right to complain about him at any time. But for the record I am not currently complaining.
  13. From my experience, being in NY for half the Bulls run and now with the Blackhawks. NY fans hated the Bulls a hell of a lot more than they hate the Blackhawks (which they do not appear to hate at all). I know jealous Penguins, Boston, Rangers, Devils and Islanders fans but they really respect the Hawks success. Philly fans hate them but they hate everything, including themselves and their own teams.
  14. THANKS FOR THE INFORMATION
  15. Who is saying that it is? The post immediately above that one, in which believing Castro would bounce back in the second half was described as "reasonably obvious." being useful you freaking dolt.
  16. I am 100% satisfied with everything Castro has done this year and think he has been fantastic.
  17. [tweet] [/tweet] The Philadelphia MacFaillies Amaro should be in line for a contract extension right away.
  18. well that freaking blows. First time Blackhawks play in Brooklyn and its their home opener. Tickets are going to be redonkulous.

  20. Supposed to be one of the leaders?
  21. Irrelevant. None of us played at minute maid but we can comment on the stupid hill in center field and awful turf at soldier field.
