MLB Network's camera angles are jacked. The pitcher is almost touching the left side of the screen, the batter is in the center, and an acre of grass is on the right
Saying this over and over and over and OVER AND OVER every game doesn't make it true Yep. The players suck too Right, and bringing in "MYSTERY MANAGER X" in late August isn't going to magically fix the hitters or the starters or the bullpen
It's unbelievable the disaster this bullpen has become. Morrow, Edwards, Strop are all dead or gone, Kimbrel came in late then died, and if anyone thinks Rowan Wick will be a dominant reliever again next year, they are far more optimistic than me
The media is going so overboard on this Luck story. SHOCKING!!! WILL CHANGE THE NFL FOREVER!!!! The dude has barely played over the past few years. It's a shame, but I wasn't shocked at all that he hung it up. He's always hurt and he's (apparently) an insanely slow healer
It went full worst case in terms of health (possibly thanks to maddon ignoring usage orders) and he was still worth like 5.5 mil last year. It wasn't some disastrous signing. And the injury risk was baked into the modest cost. If he had no injury history, he would've cost a lot horsefeathering more. If you wanna be mad at some horsefeathers in hindsight, the Heyward deal is right there. I’m pretty sure being legit mad about the Heyward signing would be revisionist history for most Cubs fans. Everyone I know was pretty pumped about it. I mean, we have the receipts
