  1. While I get the sentiment, there are definitely lots of people who really do hate him. And they are terrible human beings.
  2. Anybody excited for the new season? http://deadspin.com/police-texas-football-players-sexually-assaulted-woman-1610285609
  3. Apparently Arsenal players are walking around Hoboken, maybe they can be my new team.
  4. I don't remember him having arms like that. Retirement doesn't test.
  5. Was the commissioner lenient enough?
  6. You can't tell me those eyes don't care.
  7. The way the system is set-up, the big market teams are making the most money by far thanks to their local TV deals. The comp draft pick is a relatively minor bone to throw to the poors so they will keep playing along with a system rigged heavily to profit the biggest organizations.
  8. One hesitation and Bonifacio beats it out... nothing wrong with that play. The problem in the inning was our best hitting striking out with the bases loaded. It is much dumber to rely on a mistake by an opposing major leaguer in order to have success than having a good hitter not make an out. The problem with your theory here is that Bonifacio isn't really a good hitter, at least not outside the month of April this year. I wasn't talking about Bonifacio, I was talking about rondon placing the blame on our best hitter striking out.

  10. Tommy Birch ‏@TommyBirch 10m I-#Cubs manager Marty Pevey said INF Lars Anderson has been sent to AA and OF Manny Ramirez has been placed on the disabled list. #MiLB
  11. The gnashing of teeth and rending of garments is in response to all the 90 loss seasons. Cespedes is just another brick in the wall, but that doesn't mean fans who actually care about results of the major league team are not allowed to wish they signed him. Or does it?
  12. conte on active PUP, not available. Kyle Long unavailable at start of camp due to virus (twitter followers should know) slauson fully cleared, mills same, Steltz tentatively ready to go on Friday
  13. http://www.csnchicago.com/page/livebears streaming press conference
  14. Quietly long overdue. As opposed to Hannemann getting bumped up to Daytona. That one was overdue on an age basis.
  15. Zach Zaidman ‏@ZachZaidman 28s First #Bears player to report to Bourbonnais today: Roberto Garza. The veteran center checked in first thing in the morning.
  16. not much use in a list of tradable NFL players
  17. I'm guessing that was about how, if they had Cespedes, Jackson is less likely to be called up and be exposed and would still have the reputation of a pretty good prospect doing fine at AAA, thus, a tradeable commodity.
  18. Didn't have to be a building block to justify signing him; given the Cubs' needs and the money not spent a solid OF worth his contract would have been a nice pick up. It just seems a bit much to dismiss him as "meh" when the Cubs could have and should have walked away with both him and Soler, especially since such moves would have been more in line with the rhetoric they were spouting at the time. sure, he was really cool in 2012 but who knows, he could very well have meant the difference between having Kris Bryant and Colin Moran right now i'm over Cespedes That doesn't show much faith in this front office to be any good at drafting. He could also be the difference between having Scheirholtz and Cespedes right now.

Especially considering the difference it would make from the type of guys who are playing in the OF for the Cubs. That is a maker of difference.
