  1. Does Heyward have a no-trade clause? A limited one.
  2. His 27 season he stole 3 bases and was caught 16 times lol. Career 74 stolen with 72 caught.
  3. Dodgers are estimated at $197 million. That leaves them with about $9 million to play with. Previous 2 years they were over-cap. That third year of being over-cap really hurts. Penalty jumps from 20% 1st year, to 30% 2nd year, and then to 50% for the 3rd year. If they were be over by $20 million, they would then be paying a 62% penalty on their overages.
  4. Dodgers also going in to 3rd year being over cap. Articles during season were about how they had to get under cap for 19.
  5. Rosenthal saying Cutch doesn't stop them from going after Harper though. [tweet] [/tweet]
  6. Keep blowing money on other players not named Machado or Harper.
  7. You remember incorrectly. The cubs were the 3rd highest payroll last year. Dodgers and Giants were both over the salary cap.
  8. Such a huge buzz that LITERALLY NO OTHER OUTLET IS REPORTING IT Really wish more people would call him out on it. If it is so big, why hasn't any credible or even semi-credible reporter mentioned it.
  9. Hard to say, everyone was wearing coats and hoodies at night. The conference had 55,000 people and gave out hoodies to everyone.
  10. I stayed at the Bellagio last week for a conference. It is across from that sign. They weren't running Manilow then. Also the people pictured are way under dressed for this time of year. It was low 50s at night last week. Granted the street performers and strippers hang out near there and don't wear much. At night the girls were wearing more on their legs and torso due to the weather.
  11. At this point, the Cubs been so tentatively linked to so many players, that it seems n one has a clue what the Cubs are doing. We should also change this thread title. There is nothing swift about this off-season.
  12. There is no we, I’m pretty sure only one person is mixing them I was being generous :D
  13. I think we are mixing revenue and profit here. The Cubs had a revenue of $434 million in 2016 and $457 million in 2017.
  14. Lexington Snow Jackalopes
  15. I have to think this is all some ploy. Like TT said, signing Hamels would make no sense if we were money crunched. We obviously would need to move 1-2 outfielders to make room for Harper. Heyward will be really hard to move, and would be even harder to move if someone thought we were going for Harper. Maybe its easier to signal we overspent and need to reduce payroll some than look like big spenders with money burning a hole in their wallet.
  16. I really wanted us to get Gray like 4 years ago. It is probably a good thing I am not the GM of the Cubs.
  17. I also completely forgot who it was ~10 days later and had to regoogle, and I didn't mind. Who is it? Sage Erickson
  18. Everyone else was spitting on that stupid slider 2nd time through and dumbass Willy chases for a ball ahead in count. Almost every time, low FB followed by low slider.
  19. Wondering if we should have used Gore here.
  20. Bunting in the 2nd inning, OK who let Joe find the key to wine cabinet.
