    If the Cubs trade their best hitting prospects for pitching prospects I will not be happy.

    It's bad enough when guys who played during my childhood become radio voices, now I need a guy who played while I was already old to move into that slot?

    If you didn't have a problem with davearm you didn't see davearm post.

    A bit of TRUTH

    I assumed it was sarcasm. Hollandsworth is terrible and would be a terrible choice.

    I think they would lose every game on the line of scrimmage. Plus, all those guys are injured so they won't play well.

    yeah but is that $90 million if you start counting at zero or if you start at $20 million? The point is it doesn't matter if you start counting, or if you don't start counting, or if you do start counting but at a different starting point from where somebody else may start counting.

    Since this post names Martin Short but leaves the manager unnamed, is it a wash or does it only count as a Martin Short post?

    They typically would have announced already and other teams (most?) already have announced. Maybe it's an issue with the new stadium. The A's say they are at the Cubs in a SS game March 4, but it is their only road game at the Cubs this spring. The White Sox site also only has them going to Mesa once, on the 27th.

    Tickets sold versus butts in seats. Same with the Cubs.

    Yeah, his confidence was so high before this...you really hate to mess with success! His confidence level might not be high before this, but this certainly isn't going to help his confidence. Let's not forget that he's still very young and most of his problems seem to be mental and not physical. I'm not sure why we'd assume his problems are mental.

    And the point others are making is that you are making assumptions that would probably not hold up in the real world.

    Anytime you ask people to transfer, even once, you are giving them an excuse not to take public transportation. Buses help on the margin, but trains are what make a difference.

    Except when we traded Scott Feldman and Matt Garza last year? Arrieta and Grimm are not exactly what's being referred to by "MLB-ready starter" in these discussions. Assuming either of them can actually be starters. The silliness of this statement aside(they've traded for 4 MLB ready starters in 2 years), they've pretty clearly prioritized getting players near the MLB level in trades. For a player with Castillo's trade value, claiming they'll get "A ball pitcher(s)" for him is more ludicrous than trying to spin semantical circles around "MLB ready starter". And I think it has been a mistake to place "near MLB ready" on the priority list when you have such a drawn out schedule for contending. Maybe they didn't think it would take this long, but my guess is they would have put more emphasis on ability and ceiling than MLB readiness if they realized we'd still be where we are going into 2014.

    Nobody was talking about buses. Except for the person who said MARTA doesn't have any stops there. MARTA has about 1000 buses with stops at Turner Field. They were talking about trains. Buses are more or less meaningless in the discussion about train service to stadiums. Buses don't help you avoid the road traffic, which is half the point of taking public transportation in the first place.

    MARTA is a customer, and they most definitely have a stop at Turner Field. 2 in fact. closest MARTA stop is a mile away/25 minutes walking: http://martaguide.com/2009/06/18/marta-to-turner-field/ http://atlanta.braves.mlb.com/atl/ballpark/directions/index.jsp?content=public_transportation i noticed this when looking into transportation routes to turner field from the atlanta suburbs earlier this year. Route 55 runs along the east side of the stadium, and route 49 runs along the west side. They each have a stop right next to the stadium and a couple more within a block. I am looking at their route data right now. train or bus?

    A) Edwards impressed others even more than we may have accounted for previously. B) While pitchers often get hurt Almora and Soler have actually been hurt and missed too much time to impress. or, C) Some guys are just desperate to throw an arm at the top of the list because they don't like the look of an all-bat top 5.
