  1. I don't have a tattoo of any kind, but if I did it would not be a a Cubs tattoo. I only have one tattoo. Never regretted it. What would your (horrendous) non-Cubs choice be? The only thing I would get tattooed on me is this crazy Soundgarden Picasso-ish t-shirt I got at a concert.
  2. What a horsefeathering dump.
  3. Bryant was a child model it appears
  4. I switched from Candelerio to Underwood a day or two ago because of this post. i see it's a one vote difference at this point....
  5. I'd be on board with that. He will likely be up this year if/when Ross or Montero goes on the DL. Imagine how pissed everyone will be when a non-high pick who came out of nowhere joins Bryant, Russell, Soler, Schwarber
  6. The draft flexibility would be so much better if Hicks signs. Could go truly BPA
  7. Jerrell Freeman signs, per Biggs
  8. You can clearly hear Theo yelling 'My constructed roster is wicked pissah!' in the audio. This post has won the thread. Shut it down, mods.
  9. I am equally as amazed as philosopher, but I do mean it negative.
  10. What was the most common spot for everyone in last year's lineups? Rizzo had most of his at bats 4th, almost as many hitting 3rd Bryant 3rd Heyward (Career) had most 2nd, same for Zobrist I would go with this Zobrist Heyward Bryant Rizzo Soler Schwarber Montero Pitcher Russell Or just rank the players in OBP and use that. Hard to screw this up.
  11. I read a Medium article by someone who is the "Director of Fun" at Spotify
  12. Not sure where to find it online, but I wonder how many more pitches Arrieta threw than in years past. For example, if in Baltimore he struggled through five innings throwing 100 pitches, but then threw 7 innings toward the end of the year in 80 pitches. Obviously there were lots of games where he was well over 100 pitches this year, and probably got knocked out of a bunch of games early before he went god mode, but I don't feel like his increase in innings is that fair of a representation given how easy some of his innings/outings were.
  13. Zobrist Heyward Bryant Rizzo Soler Schwarber Montero P Russell
  14. I don't know how people could watch those two idiots. Lackey is a meathead.
  15. I've got the 9th inning saved on my DVR and it won't be going anywhere anytime soon. I have the Arrieta no-hitter, the wild card game, and all the wins against the cardinals on mine. I don't know if I'll re-watch them but I just can't delete them
  16. Sure, he shouldn't just be given a job. But he should be considered just as much as rat boy for the last bench spot. Especially if he proves to be as, or more, versatile defensively. What are the odds that Alcantara can reach some level of competence at the plate to make it in a utility role?
  17. The point is that the opt out is a significant win for the player at the time of signing the contract. This is illustrated by the idea (not sure in this case) that the opt out helps a team win the bidding. There are certainly outcomes that would make the opt out not actually cost a team.
  18. Was WV the type of offense that would make him pro-ready? Without looking anything up he had a limited amount of college game experience so I wouldn't expect him to be the route runner that would go along with that type of projection.
  19. [expletive] you, GB [expletive] you, Rodgers
  20. Line up for the false start?
  21. Ugh, 3rd and long....Fox wants to run a draw
  22. For how much i hear about how great Adams is going to be, he really [expletive] sucks
  23. Was that not holding on Willie Young?
