Derwood

http://www.northsidebaseball.com/tools/cubs-schedule Not mobile friendly on iPhone. Cuts off half the info and rotating phone/resizing doesn't fix it

I'm not sure there's much of a market for butters out there. He's worth more to us than he would be to anybody trading for him. We can always try to get them to take Derwood instead. I've got 10-5 rights, bitches

In the past, wasn't he most successful when he was hitting balls to left field? Wasn't a lot of his power to the opposite field? If they're pounding him inside, that explains all the weak contact/grounders to second.

No word on what scraps/players-we-will-immediately-cut the Bulls got back for Dunleavy or Calderon?

2008 me is ecstatic

Ray Allen now saying he wants to make a return to the NBA.....with either the Warriors or Cavs http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/16822398/ray-allen-eyeing-golden-state-warriors-considering-return-nba?ex_cid=espnfb

I'm jealous of kids these days....the glasses designers have started making good looking frames for kids. Both of my daughters wear glasses and their frames are stylish. I asked my ten year old if kids at her school get teased for wearing glasses and she said "why would they? Half the kids wear glasses". My glasses were always awful and dorky and horrifying

Gotta love coming home from work, finding out that the game is NOT on TV, but is STILL blacked out because...it's on TV?

Sounds exactly like the NBA Not really....5 years ago the Warriors were one of the saddest franchises in the league, now they are the evil empire. Cleveland is a [expletive] city and hardly a traditional power, but they just won a title. Indiana recently went through a run where they were a legit challenger to LeBron's Heat teams. Using that "Top 4" Premier league team concept above, here are the conference finalists the last few years 2016: Golden State, Oklahoma City, Toronto, Cleveland 2015: Golden State, Houston, Atlanta, Cleveland 2014: San Antonio, Oklahoma City, Indiana, Miami 2013: San Antonio, Memphis, Indiana, Miami 2012: San Antonio, Oklahoma City, Boston, Miami 2011: Dallas, Oklahoma City, Chicago, Miami 2010: Los Angeles Lakers, Phoenix, Boston, Orlando That's 16 teams that have made the top 4 in the last 7 years, over half the NBA. Of those 16 teams, only 7 made repeat trips, and the most any one team made it is 4 of the 7 years. Miami (4), OKC (4), San Antonio (3), Golden State (2), Cleveland (2), Indiana (2), Boston (2), Toronto, Houston, Atlanta, Dallas, Chicago, Phoenix, Orlando, Los Angeles Lakers, Memphis "Top 4" is pretty meaningless in the NBA. My comment was referring to how a relatively small handful of NBA teams have won the title over the past several decades. The last two years may be marking a change in that, but: # of Championships Since 1987 (30 years) LA Lakers - 7 Chicago - 6 San Antonio - 5 Detroit - 3 Miami - 3 Houston - 2 Boston - 1 Cleveland - 1 Dallas - 1 Golden State - 1 So only 1/3 of the teams in the league have won a title in 30 years. Compare that to 13 for the NFL and 16 for MLB

That's weird, I could have sworn that Leicester and Tottenham (and arsenal) were top of the table this year. Maybe it was actually United and Chelsea. Yes, let's ignore Chelsea finishing in the top 3 in 11 of 12 years before last year. Or ManU's 22 straight top-3 finishes under Fergie (including 19 in the top-2). Or Arsenal's 20 straight top-4 finishes (they're way closer to ManU/Chelsea than they are to Leicester). Or Man City's 6 straight top-4 shortly after getting a huge influx of cash. Prior to this year, in the past decade, 38 of the 40 spots in the top-4 were filled by ManU, ManCity, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal. The other two were Spurs. And the top-4 best odds to win the EPL this year? City, ManU, Arsenal and Chelsea. Sounds exactly like the NBA

I've been removed from the rotation, LOL

Isn't the salary cap just 50% of total NBA revenue? It's a 50/50 split for owners vs. players.

Suck it, Ding Dong

Ryan Braun hit a single, but was then called out for batting out of order

Why would first place Cleveland trade Salazar?

I was listening to a few innings on the radio and Pat/Ron said nothing about Bryant's knee. They thought he got hit on the face by Almora's glove

RIP IMB!

If this is the way they're going, horsefeathers it, get Wade
