  1. He had better be bringing back a substantial prospect.
  2. McGehee having a .596 OPS and -0.5 WAR gives me an irrational amount of happiness. Well it does remove one of the irrational rants meat head Cub fans like to use against Hendry. Now if Hamilton could just implode we'd be doing alright.
  3. There's the potential risk that the interim GM makes short-sighted moves in an effort to impress his bosses with a meaningless W/L record. It may not make a difference to the Ricketts, but it might and that may be enough for an interim to buy instead of sell at the deadline. I'm not one for firing Hendry but given that TR highly values the farm system (as assets) there is no reason that he couldn't merely say to any interim guy, "Don't go selling the farm to try to impress me--it will do the opposite." Simple as that. That or he could just say that he wants final approval on all trades.
  4. Dunn is as lost as I've ever seen a player at the plate. He's striking out over 40% of the time now. He's going to face a long rest on the bench soon.
  5. ......most of these hits are off good pitches. There's not a whole lot you can do about this.
  6. 3 balls have hit the top half of the fence or higher....
  7. I was thinking why in god's name did they use Dunn as their man in that promo. Even if they are playing the Nationals, I would just pretend he doesn't exist.
  8. .....this team is full of [expletive] retards. 4 times in 6 innings.
  9. Cub baseball at it's finest. Even when they're winning they manage to look stupid.
  10. Would the Reds even consider moving Yonder Alonso in the division? Or is he even viewed as a 1B anymore now that he's been playing LF?
  11. So has he surpassed Braun's seemingly insurmountable level of douchiness?
  12. You can't see getting much for a guy on pace to hit 30 HR who plays excellent defense and has a good OBP?
  13. .....I didn't notice that Antigua is apparently a reliever now. Why?
  14. In case anyones wondering, Jackson went back to being bad as hes given up 5 ER on 9 hits through 3. Something is clearly wrong. A guy doesn't go from very good to on the verge of release unless something is very wrong.
  15. If he actually said that then fire him right now for being a complete and total [expletive] moron. Apparently we've hired Joe Morgan for a coach.
  16. Someone take Koyie Hill and his -0.8 career WAR and ship him off to the independent leagues please
  17. Well that's a terrible call on that check swing.
  18. First two down without even a whimper. Shocking.
  19. and yet Hendry still manages to come up with [expletive] excuses for why Koyie Hill is on a major league roster. The guy is barely even AAA fodder.
  20. Yet another of the brilliant moves that have highlighted the Quade era.
  21. Pena has now hit 14 bombs and is on pace for 30. Any chance we can steal a top 100 prospect at the deadline?
  22. What's amazing is that Campana actually has even less power than Pierre. It's seemingly impossible.
