I can't imagine how you prospect nerds are gonna react when we give someone who's actually borderline top 10. You're not cut out for fun Theo, -
We didn't

I don't think anyone has them as a lock

A good bit older than you, apparently. Depends on his serial #

Garcia no, I've never been impressed with him and think he's a 1ish win player and gets hyped because idiots called him Mini-Miggy. Gillaspie is another 1 win guy. LaRoche is 35 coming off a win 1.6 win season so I guess he's ok. So those are 3 below average guys, and Eaton who's a league average player. So no, I am not impressed with them at all offensively. How can u say they are 3 below average guys when u r saying they r at least 1 win players? That, by definition, is average to above average. Also if Shark/Sale pitch like the did last year and Rodon pitches like the high pick he was with their bullpen looking to be pretty solid all they might need is for Abreu to be awesome and then the rest of their offense to be around 1 win guys to be a playoff team. 1 win players aren't above average

Well, if the 25 year olds aren't going to get any better...

Or Garcia or Gillaspie.

So did Nightengale I am starting to hate SF as much as hate the Cards. Let's not go that far [expletive] Will Clark, reason enough to hate the Giants. Breaking rocket's heart.

The Winter Meetings Thread

The secondary pitching market is weird. -
I think he did get the Garza deal before anyone else. Wasn't that Wittenmyer?

It doesn't matter what "It" is

I know he's been awful since signing, but it's still kind of funny to see -
What Baez, Javy or Jeffrey? That's right, you probably don't know who Jeffrey is
-
Tree's tweet from the PTR account about TV deals was pretty damn funny

The best jokes are based in truth and that's why Tree's sister and I is the best.

"Oh yeah; I was also there all of those other years, included the two where we won the World Series!" an argument of "we're competitive all the time" falls a bit flat when the club has finished in last place two of the past three seasons. Far more competitive than the Cubs, competitive more of ten than not and they've shown the propensity to bounce back quickly when he was with them and the willingness to do what is needed to bounce back quickly. I don't think it's a stretch at all to say the Cubs have to sell themselves a lot harder than teams like the Red Sox or the Giants. maybe, but the cubs have a "cool" front office and manager, and they're regarded as up and coming. cleveland isn't exactly title-town, and finished last year at 33-49 in the pathetic eastern conference, but they managed to get lebron to come back for a second try and bring in kevin love in an attempt to win a title. That might be the worst analogy I've ever seen.

Yeah, he wrote that in his article on it this morning. Owners having to sign off on bids and such. Theo tried to sneak an extra 0 on to the PTR's original generous offer.
-
I think a good percentage of people would say Bochy is the best manager in baseball and its hard to argue at this point Meh. It's a wonder the Giants have ever made the playoffs with how shitty their manager, GM, and players are.

SD Credit Union has sponsored that bowl for awhile now. I believe Raycom is a southern media company, used to broadcast shitty SEC games locally. Oh, and we used to order t-shirts for the pool I managed through Gildan.

Why would the Cubs trade for a guy they traded away already because he wouldn't sign an extension? Well, they wouldn't. But in theory because they're supposedly trying to win now, when last year they were trying to lose. Their window is just now starting to open, they are not in a "win now" mode. They are in a "building at the major league level now" mode. That's not a real thing. -
Cubs fans will be like this till at least a replication of the 1950s Yankees happens for the Cobs. Yeah, Cubs fans just haven't appreciated how good they've had it.

The player was Taiwan Easterling I believe, can't remember the poster. I prefer the Travis Garcia guy lecturing us for never being in the hotbox.

Uhhh, the Rockies are projected for fifth in the NL??

I've never heard of Chicago/Cook/Illinois having an advantageous tax situation over someone else Illinois has a pretty low state income tax IIRC
