    Zach Zaidman ‏@ZachZaidman 28s First #Bears player to report to Bourbonnais today: Roberto Garza. The veteran center checked in first thing in the morning.

    not much use in a list of tradable NFL players

    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.

    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.

    .274/.338/.535 over 337 PA to start 2013. He stunk in his first stint in 2012.

    I'm generally not a fan of "let's make fun of harmless normal folks" bits. They are mean and dumb and made for mean and dumb people who need to see others fail in order to make themselves feel better about their mean dumbasses. Also, leading the witness with "from the Oakland deal" or "from the Garza deal' is a dumb trick that is going to create more "oh that was his name" assumptions by the interviewee than simply just throwing out a name.

    It may have something to do with the vague wording.

    I was trying to make a similar point but unable to come up with a sentence that makes sense. The promotion was more about getting him out of the FSL than rewarding his success. I'd expect him to spend a lot of time in AA before the next move.

    reiterates why I liked Ramirez so much. Consistently good hitter routinely under appreciated by the masses and media.
  12. jersey cubs fan
    wrong He's currently on pace for a very similar season as he had his rookie year.
  13. jersey cubs fan
    yep, probably same for most.
  14. jersey cubs fan
    The Cubs are 41-57, on pace for another 90-loss season.

    I was talking to a woman on a dating site who was on the low end of my 1/2age+7 rule and she wasn't even born when Seinfeld season 2 was running. That's when I noped out of dating sites. that's a weird decision to make

    Brad Biggs ‏@BradBiggs 50m #Bears report to training camp at Olivet Nazarene University in Bourbonnais for the 13th summer today.

    The return of the riot
  18. jersey cubs fan
    Right, but THEY SHOW UP TODAY!!!!
  19. jersey cubs fan
    Yeah, but the start of camp usually seems more exciting just because football, especially with another dreadful Cubs season. Maybe that's just a made up memory though.
  20. jersey cubs fan
    well training camp starts. Not sure why the excitement seems so low.

  22. jersey cubs fan
    He's not even white.
  23. jersey cubs fan
    Isn't that spot likely available for Fujikawa coming off the 60 Day DL? He's rehabbing in AAA right now.

    The last thing the front office should want to do is give off some sort of "Baez is our savior" vibe. He's already going to be putting that sort of pressure on himself because of who he is. If anything they'll want to lower expectations for fans. Which is just another reason he may not come up until late next spring. But man if he comes up soon... So exciting! They aren't doing that. They are just giving little cookies to fans (even though Theo said he doesn't do this) by kinda hinting/bringing up his name. That's not saying "Baez is our savior" or like "hint hint, hey guys maybe Baez is coming soon". Why the hell do you think Len would not talk about Baez if not for a hint or nod from the FO?
