    if they had any hope of signing him long term with a hometown discount, this probably throws that right out the window

    I am a big fan of anyone named Darin :-"

    i guess i haven't. summary? charming

    I'll start using derogatory nicknames in the future

    i guess i haven't. summary? She had an axe to grind with Ryno and would rant against him all the time, ending with the classic: She hated Sandberg and Sosa and looooooved Grace. gotcha. that said, I can never assume that GoCubsGo! is referencing anything besides his own irrationality

    The 1.42 WHIP wasn't so bad for you?

    then he shouldn't be promoted. If you're going to burn an option on him, at least see what he's made of Samardzija's option was burned back in March. que? when he was added to the 40-man, i believe. He was added to the 40 man when he was signed. Every guy on the 40 man is on the active roster in spring training. if they don't break camp with the major league club or on the DL, they burn an option. Gotcha, I didn't know that.

    Didn't she swear up and down that the team was Canning's? She's been off on pretty much every fact she's given us about how the ownership situation will play out, but she comes coming back with a condescending tone because she knows the Red Sox groups combined. This isn't privleged information, everyone knows how the Red Sox deal went down. The fact that that worked for them(and the Nats I think), doesn't mean it will work now. Shockingly these tremendously rich people aren't all eager to dump a ton of money into something only to not be the guy who's even the head of the team. I just find it ironic that when someone posts information without a link/source, they get jumped on, but when RedIvyCub posts the source of her information, no one believes her. Maybe she will be wrong about the ownership situation, but she doesn't deserve to be driven away every time she speaks up.

    if Reds management was that smart they never would have hired him to begin with
  15. Derwood
    at least MLB, for once, did the right thing and got rid of that rule soon after.

    Is Lou determined to give Harden 5 days rest from here on out? Do we need 8 starters on this team?
  18. Derwood
    Probably not considering they've sold over 30,000 tickets for it

    how long before someone pinch-hits for the game thread?

    who's the chick with the maniacal laughter?

    I say good for him. After the hell he went through after 2003, I would probably tell anybody wishing to cash in on it to go eff themselves too. Not everyone is an opportunistic attention whore. I admire his ability to separate himself from the incident despite everyone's desire to not let it go

    1 - GoCubsGo!'s pet nicknames for everyone he hates have never been funny. They add nothing to your argument and make you look twelve. 2 - I don't understand why you guys gang up on RedIvyCub every time she posts here. Is it because she tells you something you don't want to hear? How do you so casually dismiss the fact that she was working in the front office every day and maybe, just maybe, has a firmer grasp on the inner workings of baseball than you do? It's embarrassing how you guys treat her.

    You don't know what any of them are going to vote. None of us do but I strongly suspect that Cuban will not get a 75% yes vote from the good old boys club. the "good old boys" will vote yes for an owner that will make them more money
  24. Derwood
    it's one year after the day he signs I believe
  25. Derwood
    75% "yes" votes mean a minimum of 23 owners. I can't name one (besides Reinsdorf) who would absolutely vote no for a sale to Cuban.
