  1. you can but i think that's silly turn that humor rating down to 75 please TARS Mr. Noodle = TARS, David is more of a CASE man.
  2. Well, case closed then. I have no problem deferring to the likes of the FO's who value this. Especially when they have much better and much more information available to them than we do. Why did Theo and Jed stick with Castillo for three years? Weren't you of the opinion that they were intentionally losing? Even if they were trying to have a puncher's chance, it was worth seeing if he could get any good and become a long term cheap piece. Yes I was. But I was also of the belief that they were trying to flip undervalued pitchers. It seems to be foolish to try and turnaround a pitcher's front page stats by having him throw to a catcher that will make his job more difficult.

  4. 6-4 with those two huge losses would have us excited about making the playoffs but scared to death of potential matchups.
  5. Plus he's from Toronto. Pretty nice homecoming for him. I didn't know he was Canadian, now I am glad.
  6. I don't get what that means. It would seemingly be very easy to be a fair weather Bears fans.
  7. Whelp, they can have him at that price. Tired of this refrain. You are upset the Cubs didn't beat 5yr/$80mil? it's not your money
  8. based on what? Trading a former top prospect at a fraction of their peak value (not saying they screwed up, it happens) and trading for a fringy second baseman. Trading for fringy second basemen was always Hendry's go-to. They didn't have him at his peak value.
  9. Keep in mind, the Marlins also signed Jose Reyes to a 6 year, $106M contract that shocked people that thought the Marlins would never give out a big contract, and then promptly dealt him less than a year later.
  10. Saying you find it a little funny is barely even a lukewarm comment, and far from a hot take. i absolutely 100% knew you were going to argue about whether that's actually a hot take or not when i was just giving um crap I believe you were the one who began the argument about whether or not it was a hot take.

  12. There will be a TB touchdown scored by them picking up a non-dead ball and running away untouched. Lovie may be the only coach that preaches that style of pick it up and go no matter how it got on the ground, and the Bears have given up more than one such play. Hopefully the refs blow it dead.
  13. Not sure I get the LOL. I assume the DHing would be to get him in the lineup for ~150 games Because I'd imagine/hope your regular DH should be a better option than Russell Martin, a guy who gets a huge chunk of his value from defensive contributions at a premium position. The average AL DH hit .249/.319/.424 last year. Only three teams got an 800 OPS from the DH slot. Sure, ideally you'd want somebody who can hit better than Russell Martin as your everyday DH. But in reality Martin would be fine hitting at DH on days when he's not catching for most teams.
  14. Have they even hit 28 once this year?
  15. This isn't a make good is it? .400 obp in minors. Although he was older and also had a .400 slg
  16. The play calling definitely looks as good as it has pretty much all season. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Too many convoluted wr screens
  17. Refs need more phantom penalties against bears
  18. They didn't pick up the ball. Every whistle blew. Ball is dead. End of discussion.
  19. Stopping when the play is blown dead is giving up on a play? Apparently the rule works in our favor not to fall on it "just in case" so I'm okay with it... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Is that true? How so? Is your tv on mute?
