  1. Pretty sure the new Cubs network should create "Javy-cam" where there is a camera focused on him alone at all times in the game.
  2. What's it going to take for Schwarber to make contact?
  3. I want interim manager Mark Loretta for the home opener. If we are going to suck, let's just get weird with it.
  4. Think Joe is counting on a rain delay after this inning?
  5. Yeah, benching a guy who hit two huge dongs and looked really locked in just because it's a lefty on the mound is peak Joe "smartest guy in the room" garbage
  6. 3 batter minimum is stupid Single trade deadline is fine, though maybe pushing it a week or so further out would be good. Increased roster size is good Don't know why they don't go with a pitch clock, seems like that would solve a lot of issues while not causing any real ones
  7. C-Willson Contreras ($25) 1b- Rhys Hoskins ($100) 2b- Jose Altuve ($50) 3b- Anthony Rendon ($75) SS- Javier Baez ($100) OF- Giancarlo Stanton ($200) OF- JD Martinez ($200) OF- Mookie Betts ($100) OF- Bryce Harper ($100) DH- Carlos Correa ($50) sending bench players via PM
  8. I like this because it 1. Doesn't help the big time contenders in either league and 2. Will actively hurt the Dodgers (in theory; I imagine Machado swings a game or two in favor of the Padres)
  9. [tweet] [/tweet]
  10. If Chatwood gave us a 2017 John Lackey season, how would you feel? I can’t imagine a more optimistic outcome.
  11. Sure was, good for you. He's an amazing guy. Had some interesting perspective on the program considering Bryce was somewhat interested in it. If he was told the truth by Bryce, I don't think this is ever going to get better. I would believe anything said about any Illinois athletic program at this point. Do tell...
  12. Seriously trying to figure out what cincy is doing with this move... this doesn’t move the needle that much for them does it? Can’t see them any better than third, and that’s with everything breaking right for them. How much salary does this actually save them?
  13. There's very much a supply/demand issue here where the 17 year old Bryce Harpers benefit from this setup, and 90% of talents are hurt because of a glut of options on the open market. I assume a lot of teams that can’t get the big names would approach it like a team under international cap penalties has to now. Sign a bunch of guys for relatively low dollar amounts and hope some of them pan out.
  14. The Pirates' window shut in a hurry, yeesh It shut in the 2.5 seconds it took Schwarber's dong to leave PNC and splash into the Allegheny
  15. This actually makes a lot of sense Would make it more likely that the best teams play in the title game. Would be interesting to see how they work the schedules.
  16. Don't like this trade because Goldschmidt kills us and we own Weaver. Sure would be nice to have an extra draft pick to trade because "reasons."
  17. KB: “Hey Bryce, just checking in. Are you ready to sign with us and not those other losers?” Harper: “Yeah bro, let me just tell Reinsdorf I’m still considering the White Sox.”
  18. As far as releasing the scum bag, sure. But pretty sure they had knowledge of the incident way before today.
  19. Looks like one of my old NCAA ‘14 games. No defense, big plays all over the place, and tons of points.
