I would go with redundant there. -
Fixed. Curious what you mean by fixed. Are you saying it is not fair to call him injury prone? Or that recently injured is a more damning description. This is the first and only time he's missed significant time in his career. That doesn't make a player injury prone. He's been injured multiple times in recent years.

Pujols also played against the Cubs in an era in which the Cubs emerged as a contender and should have done more. McGwire's time coincided with a time when the Cubs had a brief glimpse of success but were largely an also ran.

There's a fairly large gulf between wanting more out of a guy and thinking he is a huge disappointment. And in addition to that, there's an entirely different world where one would be bummed that he is on the team. If Cespedes were here, people may want more, but they wouldn't be bummed he was here.

Because nobody wants to watch [expletive] like that. Oh my god that would be boring. And what we have now is so exciting No, but that's the nature of these things. They are lame. Take 3 days and do something else before real baseball comes back.

Minor League Discussion & Boxes 7-15-13

Vogelbach, back over 800 with a 3/5 1bb/1k day. -
Ugghh, little pat on the head and words of encouragement from condescending Cardinals fan would not be helpful to me. It's easy to give your rival a half hearted pep talk when the rivalry's as one sided as ours had been the past few years. not too mention that they are so stinkin' loaded with young talent it's sickening. It was more of a "this team isn't as bad as a lot of people think" type of thing... He wasn't trying to be rude. He said he's liked a lot of the moves the management has made. I'd imagine most Cardinals fans have been ecstatic about everything the Cubs have done the past 4 years.

Yes, I was asking if you were talking about Merrill Hoge. -

Oh my god I actually saw that and all I could think was, what the what?

Oh god I don't know. To me he never seemed to be a "former NFL meatball" like so many others. Maybe he was. I probably never payed that close of attention. He just never rubbed me the wrong way from what I can recall. I have had a lot of life issues over the past few years that have kept me relatively sidelined when it comes to some things. In retrospect, I guess I probably shouldn't have vouched for him since I don't have much to draw from. Merrill Hoge? Not a former NFL meatball? The factorback guy? -
well that's interesting.
-
They could probably get it on an installment plan.
-
Again, what they are paid does not matter. They got what they got because of the strength of each party's negotiating stance. As the Cubs are constructed, and with what is available to improve from outside, they need Castro and Rizzo to be good in order for the team to be good anytime soon. Their prospects are too far away, and far too unknown, from providing that production. And there's not much out there on the market to make a difference.
-
With what they are paying Castro and Rizzo, they aren't expecting them to be the best players on the team. I still expect at least 1 mega free agent deal sometime in the next 2 offseasons. Who that will be is a mystery as there aren't likely too many big stars coming to free agency, especially hitters. What they are paying them has nothing to do with anything. Their salaries are based strictly on what each party's negotiating position was at the time of the deal.

So much for Samardzija. This begins the death spiral for him. I could have sworn Samardzija was having a disappointing season before looking at his stats. Whut. I mean like, in my head when I saw he gave up a bunch early I was like, "here we go again." I felt like this has happened all too frequently and he was having a bad year. Then I looked at it and saw he was on pace for the same numbers as last year.
-
That's not true at all. He should consider himself lucky then that he got $100k before blowing out his arm. He hasn't lost anything he never had in the first place.
-
HAHAHA. How is he going to get through life?
