    Owning a sports team is the greatest investment ever. You get huge tax breaks, the vast majority of the stadiums are at least subsidized if not entirely funded by the taxpayers and the franchise value seems to double every 10 or so years.

    It's like the days of the Daytona Cubs where it felt like there were multiple rain outs weekly.

    So I suppose that Mike Lorenzen trade is working out ok for the Phillies. 2 GS 17IP 6H 2ER 10K 5BB including a no hitter last night Obviously with that K/9 and .111 babip that's not going to last, but that's about as good a start as you could hope for. For fun. Jeimer's line since joining the Cubs .485/.541/.727 good for a 246 wRC+

    That was my fault. I turned the game on, 5 seconds later Alonso bomb. I immediately turned it off.

    Not sure I like having a slumping Morel and Seiya plus K machine Wisdom all in the line up.

    Ok, you heard it here gentleman. If you're 25+ and you're not putting up a 200 wRC+ on 80% flyballs you're horsefeathers and not worthy of getting a chance at the big leagues.

    3,9 fWAR in 2021 and likely a 5 fWAR performance this year. Even with a horrific 2022, he's going to get paid pretty well. Remember, even Mancini got 2/14 and he has 1 total season over 1.5 fWAR

    Deloach= 113 wRC+ on a .394 babip and 27.8K% Trammel= 125 wRC+ and has been given 351 major league PAs in which he has posted a .168/.270/.368 line with a 37.0k% Scheiner= 115 wRC+ Mervis= 137 wRC+, 99 MLB PA with a .167/.242/.289 line on a .218 babip Walks more than any of those guys, strikes out less than any of those guys, higher wRC+ than any of those guys

    As always, it depends on what type of deal he's looking for. He's had a career year in 2023 , but he was awful in 2022, In 2021 he was good, posting almost 4 fWAR. If he's looking at like 4/72, even 4/80, I could see that, but if he's trying to cash in on this year for something like 6/150 then hard pass.

    I saw an article that warranted like 4 or 5 responses was somehow at 5 pages and I was 90% sure of the answer why before I even opened it.

    I just don't get being this down on Alcantara. Even if we ignore that he clearly adjusted to A+ after a horrific start, his overall numbers put him at a 118 wRC+, in a season where he turned 21 less than a month ago while playing a premium defensive position.
  12. Tryptamine
    I was on the Michael Busch train for that draft.
  13. Tryptamine
    The farm completely lacks the star power that made that run possible. The Orioles are the 2015 Cubs.
  14. Tryptamine
    Perlaza kind of has to get one, though I wouldn't expect him to see any big league time until roster expansion.
  15. Tryptamine
    Over who? I'm not starting him over Candelario or Madrigal at 3B and I'm not starting him at DH over Morel or over Gomes when there is a lefty on the mound.

    I was so sure he was the big get from the Darvish trade. Whoops.
  18. Tryptamine
    They simply cannot basically forfeit every fifth game by letting Smyly start. He needs to be put on the IL with a mystery injury until he can get himself straightened out.
  19. Tryptamine
    White Sox Interactive makes this place seem packed. There's a pretty small amount of people still active over there.

    It's been an incredibly short time and I'm already sick of hearing about how USC is going to demolish the Big10, etc etc.
  21. Tryptamine
    As much as Ricketts is a loathsome ghoul, the Angelos clan is on an even higher tier of human garbage.
  22. Tryptamine
    Huge series win against Atlanta, they can't let up here. Take 2 of 3 then head up north.
  23. Tryptamine
    Man would it be really huge for the Cubs if Cuas was actually a guy.
  24. Tryptamine
    At least exhaust their bullpen....
  25. Tryptamine
    Bednar blows the save
