    Law had an article today about the top young SS in baseball. Anyone know if he said anything about Starlin?

    Idk if Lebron has had to play at more than 70-80% in any playoff game yet. So there's that.

    Kershaw with 7k's through 3

    Do we even, technically, have a "long man" in the pen?

    So this what regression to the mean looks like

    Gray is an 80 fastball too. We're gonna get someone damn good, regardless. I'd take 80 power over an 80 fastball every single time. Especially when the 80 power has the strike zone recognition, bat speed, and discipline that all seem to grade above average attached to it. Side question, is Gray's fastball being rated at an 80 based almost solely on velocity? Does he generate a lot of movement on it? Meaning if he becomes more of a 92-94 MPH guy +/- it falls down to basically an average pitch, say 55-60 on the scale, due to lack of movement as it would become much more hittable?

    Absolutely not

    He doesn't feel comfortable throwing off his off foot and doesn't have the muscle memory back so he's sitting out until his brother thinks he should come back.

    That's all real promising (as a whole, this offensive unit accomplishing league averageness isn't something I thought would happen). I do fear, however, that once the offense gets going (like it is now) the starting pitching is going to start to regress since the peripherals, on almost the whole rotation, suggest that they are mostly over achieving and having quite a bit of babip/risp/% stranded luck. Meaning that the up tick in offense will be supplemented with the down turn in pitching and not a lot of increase in wins.

    Give me Appel or give me death

    Other than Wells, that isn't that crazy or any sort of sss. Swisher has been above 3.5 fWAR every year the last 3 years along with an OPS comfortably above .800. Beltre has had fWAR's of 6.6, 5.3, and 6.2 the last 3 years and has 2 seasons of .900+ OPS and a .892 OPS over that time.

    I know it had the Prior/Wood injuries, but '04 was what I think of when I think of the dream team rotation, with Maddux instead of Estes. 2004 didn't happen
  15. Cubswin11
    I think this is the most likely scenario. I like Hughes as a Garza alternative if he leaves.
  16. Cubswin11
    Cano or bust

    When does Boise start?
  19. Cubswin11
    Mariano has 15 saves this season (in 15 opportunities), the Yankees have 23 total wins.

    A pitcher threw a 1 hit, CG, shoutout with no BB every day this weekend. Lester (Fri), Miller (Sat), Sale (Sun).

    The ability to keep Rizzo through his prime and age 33 season for no more than $73mm, Theo/Jed you magnificent bastards.:D
  24. Cubswin11
    Vernon Wells hit his 9th HR today and has a OPS in the mid .800's
  25. Cubswin11
    4 bb for Vitters already is a nice sign
