  1. Idk, just eat innings Lackey. We now have the pen to deal
  2. I don't care we got to Sale early. Just keep making him pitch hard, and lackey get on your game
  3. Maddon talked about getting him in the game to get his feet wet, I feel like last night was more Maddon getting Cub fans a dose of why Chapman is here. Yea he did a fucked up thing, but 101, 100, 103 raises the specter of his talent Dirty trick Joe
  4. Well, he's on the team like him or not. 103 last night
  5. Soler, yes, Schwarber, no
  6. Or, that front row seat was part of a make-a-wish horsefeathers Joey
  7. well, I was thinking of in like 6 mos when everyone realizes Jakes arm fell off in June and we could trade for a guy like Archer
  8. Schwarber killed the ball last year, including playoffs he had a 143 wRC+, and that is probably not a fair expectation of Schwarber's bat going forward. A 143 wRC+ would be Rizzo's worst mark since 2013. He also is under team control for the same duration as Schwarber. nvm, I see what you are saying, they are both fully under control for the same period, so a) keep both and b)def keep the better one, or who projects to be better, Rizzo where he is at
  9. could the Cubs ever convert KS to 1st and move Rizzo? it feels sacrilege to me, I love Rizzo, but if they feel KS really is that much better of a hitter, I wouldn't be shocked if Theo did this thinking KS could handle the position
  10. I really hate that our big FA move is littered with this crap
  11. I didn't say they would be better. Actually I googled Almaty because I wanted to learn about it a bit and food that pic, thought it was kinda funny/relevant to the discussion
  12. Can domestic abusers ever stop? Honest question
  13. I'm sure Almaty would be just fiiiiine http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160727/02813c85f7b47724df2a14ded80ed0dc.jpg
  14. this is dumb and awful stuff You should feel shame To add, if his girlfriend and her brother were also from Cuba, why would they fight back knowing that w/o Chapmans money they'd likely go back?
  15. I think what he is saying is that what should be a great story (poverty to rich/successful athlete in America) has been ruined by his actions. oh yeah, that would have been cool That's exactly what I'm saying. It's interesting reading how players like he grew up, but God he's in a bad place now and it sucks
  16. Yeah, I've spent the better part of the past 2 days rationalizing this move to myself and feel kinda sick that I'm doing that. This guy is scum vs. god I want a WS win. Gonna be even more disheartening if we don't win it and he leaves after the season. Maybe. I don't want to piss away WS chances, but it isn't like the window is rapidly closing. While I want to win it this year, if we lose this year, he walks and we win it in 2017 without him, I'd be happier in the end. The guy came from absolute poverty to the point he is now, that's what I have a hard time with. I want him to be amazing and be amazing closing games, he just isn't
  17. You know what absolutely sucks? We have an amazing bullpen with guys that can throw 97-105 and I have totally mixed feelings about it. Ugggh
  18. He'll break out in the playoffs and it'll be awesome. He'll break out in May and it'll be awesome. He'll break out when it gets warm and it'll be awesome. He'll break out in the 2nd half and it'll be awesome. he'll never break out He broke
