  1. I didn't see anything about this posted, but may have missed it with the weekend: Epstein: Cubs won't necessarily be buyers Hoping this is just a smokescreen, and not prospect hoarding.
  2. Probably. But he was killin it in AAA so far this year. K rate is low, but still good numbers. He's better than Roach (all that matters) and I don't see how that's arguable at all. Roach and Richard have eerily similar AAA lines this year.
  3. TM SH PIT 36 ATL 31 MIA 31 WSN 30 ARI 28 CIN 28 MIL 26 PHI 25 LAD 24 AVG 24 SFG 23 SDP 21 STL 19 COL 18 CHC 13 NYM 13
  4. All the Marlins best bats are lefties, so this is a better matchup for this specific game. But Clayton Richard is terrible.
  5. Montero is awful vs. LHP, why would he not be batting 8th?
  6. What advantages does this Clayton Richard have over say a Dallas Beeler, which we could also afford?

  9. You should probably just punt until Lebron retires or moves to the West.
  10. I hope it was the Amazing Jonathan.
  11. The Cubs Vs http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41FPy076V3L._SY355_.jpg The Mets Go Cub
  12. It's Randy Wells all over again. Hamels' top age-specifc comps on BR: Peavy, Drabek, Appier, Haren, Rijo Number of 3+ win seasons combined from those comps after age 32: two Aren't BR comps kinda worthless?
  13. As tree pointed out yesterday, tomorrow is a day game, so Ross and Montero are each going to get one start regardless. The personal catcher thing is fine for a backup if you're not using the same personal catcher as the righty half a of a platoon. Add in that Lester has faced [expletive] zero lefties all season and it's a lot of wasted PAs.
  14. It's Randy Wells all over again.
  15. I don't think the Phillies are desperate to free up money.
  16. http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/s/schmimi01.shtml Look at his first couple partial years as he tried to break in. His 40 PA year or his year where he was averageish?
  17. http://www.hattales.com/media/16294/prof-hinkle-class-full.jpg Joe Maddon in drag leads the Cubs against Haystacks Calhoun and the smelly-ass Mets Go Cub
  18. I always forget how long MacPhail was around.
  19. you were his boss, you could have pushed him, or you could have chosen not to gift him an extension on your way out the door. Who were the "2 kids?" Even that Wasserstrom goof was post-MacPhail IIRC.
  20. Conveniently enough, we played the Mets in game 75 in Theo's first year. Our leadoff man was Joe Mather. We lost 17-1.
  21. Perhaps you need a reminder of how terrible we were the past few years.
  22. Pretty much.
  23. We beat the hell out of the Mets earlier this year and are no longer facing an army of drunk voodoo practicing baseball players. Go Cub
