Brian Bogusevic 2014 Contract Status: Pre-Arb Eligible Justin Ruggiano 2014 Contract Status: 1st-Year Arb Eligible They also have 4 promising OF as listed in the article on the 1st page, and 3 of those 4 are RH, so it seems like a decent swap for need on both ends. Yeah, I can understand their reasoning. -
I didn't know him.

Couldn't they have just paid him a couple grand and paid for his travels at some point in ST to do this? Instead of taking him? I understand it's really not a big deal either way, just don't get why you have to draft him to have him come in and talk. The cost of the pick is reportedly around $12,000, so yeah, that's what they just paid for a possible one-time motivational speaker. Looking at costs for athletes to come speak at events... this seems to be a fair rate, actually. It's not like he's now under obligation to show up.
-
Yeah, it's nice to find the marginal upgrade when possible, but it won't really matter much until the core is upgraded substantially.

2013-14 Defending Champion Blackhawks Regular Season Thread
jersey cubs fan replied to Drew Doughty's topic in Other Sports
My take on it is that while I was in Chicago during most of the Bulls run, I didn't get much out it because I was indifferent*. But you have to be a sociopath to aggressively hate them like nuts does the Blackhawks. *I did get enjoyment while living in NY and witnessing Knicks fans displeasure at the Bulls success. -

I'm not so sure that's an apt comparison. -
It would seem to be, considering the story that Miami was looking to trade him and alluding to their own desire to get a LH bat.

A Jeff Baker that can help in center.

Idk, but it's projection really likes Ruggiano for this year. 20 HR, mid .700's OPS and a 3.5 WAR. That's the same WAR it projects for Cargo. It also projects Javy at 33 HR and 4.3 WAR. Good God...what the hell projection is this and can we make it real life? Seems to take a lot of generous assumptions with guys who don't have a big enough track record.

It projects 600 PA for everybody, which means it has Ruggiano as more valuable than Rizzo over the next four years.

What is the Oliver projection on fangraphs?

Mark Gonzales @MDGonzales 19m Cubs pick catcher Charles Cutler from Buccos' minor league roster, balt. Takes OF Julio Borbon Mark Gonzales @MDGonzales 11m Cubs minor league pitcher AJ Morris to pittsburgh

Because they don't actually have any of their own money.

lol spelling is not a strong suit, get over it. I assumed it was some sort of auto-correct situation, but also thought it was weird that you had two Sabins and one Saban in a three sentence post.

Week 15: Bears (7-6) @ Browns (4-9) Noon, FOX
jersey cubs fan replied to UMFan83's topic in Other Sports
Picking against the Bears every week would have made you a lot of money so far this season. -
It sounds like really open to interpretation according to the early word on it. Can an infielder still drop his knee in front of a base while fielding a throw. Can the catcher still field a throw in front of the plate but leave his leg draped in the baseline? If the catcher is blocking the basepath and you try to slide, then what? Catcher gets fined, but your team gets an out because you wouldn't bowl him over? Same in reverse? You start with banning the actually collision, which is always instigated by the runner, but then you add some opportunity to call interference if a catcher blocks entire path or something. Of course, umps won't be able to not screw up.

They probably won't miss knock off Sabin balls.

You really forced that one in there. -
Offseason Rumors
jersey cubs fan replied to Clem Fandango's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
It'd certainly up the intimidation factor. And that's without even mentioning their enormous ball. Would you really want to be perceived as such a greedy pig? -
I hold out hope he can be useful but I would be blown away shocked if Lake was a 5 WAR player.
-
A touch pricey for me considering the circumstances, but that shouldn't make too much difference to the Mets. Have they reimbursed Madoff already?
