Eh, the couple of games I saw him at third weren’t pretty. Whatever, we’re winning by ten -
Why do you think Báez at third and Happ at second is optimal? Because the small sample size of Happ at third was kind of a disaster
-
Hey Joe Maddon (since you're reading this), please reverse Happ and Baez so that your infield defense is optimal, kthxbye
-
That is certainly...a transaction Is there any reason not to just cut the guy we got or shove him into the D-League (or whatever they're calling it now)?
-
It got lost at the bottom of page 6. Funny how the Cubs started the rally after the soccer game was over. It’s like you could have watched two awesome things happen!

If you're still watching this crap fest instead of the awesome World Cup match then you deserve the misery

How quickly you all forget that the Brewers had a good first half last year before crashing and burning
-
You're doing this a LOT lately: viewtopic.php?f=26&t=2242 Dammit. I saw CC, Keener, etc. Still, blame CT
-
You clearly should’ve gone with Roast

Blame CT

Midseason Assessment (aka - what do we need at the deadline?)
Derwood replied to Tim's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
What about the PR nightmare of seeing Harper walk away for nothing when you could have traded him for assets? -
Yeah, but coin flips, maaaaaaan

Just because a dumb and non optimal decision has worked out doesn’t make the decision any less dumb and non-optimal Sure, but also just because the decision has been suboptimal over 462 PA's doesn't mean it will forever be going forward. We aren't talking about a 10 year career's worth of splits here
-
What the eff does that have to do with anything?
-
But you're beholden to your past performance against righties? Because drunky Joe
-
Why? Until his BABIP regresses to the mean, keep him out there. ...what? He's batting .330/.370/.455 against righties this year. The numbers are elevated by a high BABIP, but he's not exactly struggling against right handers.

It's going to be another frustrating off season for the CBJ. While I appreciate that the team has done better in the past 4 seasons than they had in the previous 15, the front office is all in on "draft and develop" and basically refuses to sign anyone significant in free agency. The strategy is great if you manage to draft a McDavid, Crosby or Kane. So far the Jackets have seen four players sign elsewhere, while only adding Riley Nash, and all signs point towards Panarin not wanting to sign an extension.

2018 HR Derby {Discussion & Transaction Thread}
Derwood replied to Southpaw19's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I could look it up, but my enthusiasm for this contest always wanes through the middle of the season Because I'm in a good mood, even though I'm sitting at work the day after a Holiday, here is your team as currently constructed. Derwood Giancarlo Arenado Machado Bryce KB Seager (Kyle) Haniger* Max Kepler Yoenis Ryan Schimpf C.J. Cron Yasmany Tomas * This was your only first half transaction thus far Thanks. I really wasn’t asking for you to do that, but cool that you did -

While I was absolutely on board with letting Hector Rondon go last off season.....man, he's kicking a lot of ass in Houston this year -
