    Rizzo!

    Big play!

    Ugh...

    Looking forward to checking this out after the game. :-)

    Really good start from Hammel.
  6. Aaron Kennelly
    Once again, the offense goes to horsefeathers after the Hammel hit.
  7. Aaron Kennelly
    They've really looked feeble on the times they've made outs, though.
  8. Aaron Kennelly
    The offense really went to horsefeathers after that Soler double.
  9. Aaron Kennelly
    Jorge!

    38-15 I'm aware of the record, it's lovely but doesn't have much to do with what's going on right now in this game. I'm just hoping the bats wake up soon cause this is frustrating to watch. We went most of yesterday looking feeble as well though, so who knows. Dude, you were complaining because we hadn't scored, outside of that one time we did, in the first two innings. We score the second-most runs per game in MLB. We are 38-15 and have won 9 of 10. What the hell is wrong with you?

    He's got 10 extra-bases hits this season. 4 have come in his last 8 games. Why are you deciding to get sick of him now?
  12. Aaron Kennelly
    Sex Fowler.
  13. Aaron Kennelly
    It's the top of the third. They haven't even been through the order yet. I mean, seriously, it's resorted to this? Complaining because we only have 1 run in 2 innings?
  14. Aaron Kennelly
    Jorge is taking this dude deep, for sure.
  15. Aaron Kennelly
    A world of pain.
  16. Aaron Kennelly
    This kid is entering a world of pain.
  17. Aaron Kennelly
    I think it was just Made-A-Bad-Pitch Hammel. He looked fine the rest of the inning.
  18. Aaron Kennelly
    horsefeathers
  19. Aaron Kennelly
    They're playing in this?

    I didn't say he was going to have Matt Szczur's role. I said that Matt Szczur has a role on this team when you started bring up how all of our part-time players were better than Almora. The point was, if Matt Szczur can have a role on this team, then Albert Almora can have a role on next year's team. I didn't say it would be the same role.
  21. Aaron Kennelly
    We are going to dong the hell out of this chump.
  22. Aaron Kennelly
    Well, that ship has already sailed. He's not on their level. We very well may have goofed. But there's nothing we can do about that now. He is what he is. That doesn't mean we can't still get something out of him.

    How is this one....I want to have a more likeable image as a poster and mincing words is something I have to improve on: Compare the AA and AAA lines of the guys given starter and part time roles on the 2015 and 2016 Cubs to what current AAA hopefuls Almora and Contreras are doing and have done. Almora does not meet the standards those guys have set, if we can assume there are standards now. 1-10, improved or not so much? I feel like something is missing. Matt Szczur has a part-time role for a 38-15 team, and he's actually done a good job in that role. There can definitely be a role for Albert Almora. Also, Javier Baez had a 108 wRC+ in his first go-around at AAA. Almora is at 106 this year. And Almora's value also comes largely from his defense, at a position where we lack options long-term.

    It had nothing to do with the language not being soft enough. It had to do with you telling people to compare Almora's numbers with Kris Bryant's because they aren't as good. Ya don't say!? Maybe we should compare Mark Zagunis to Kris Bryant next. Well that's just being purposefully obtuse to get angry for the sake of getting angry. I have never seen anyone looking for the Cubs to give Zagunus a 2017 starting job, which HAS been said about Almora. There were, IIRC, 5 other guys - a couple that weren't as good as Kris Bryant either. Neither Soler or Contreras, nearly 1/3 of that list, have made a major publication's top 10 or even IIRC a top 20 yet. I don't see how you think I am coming off angry when you are the one telling people to punch themselves in the nuts.
