  1. The different circumstances Graham referred to being playing the #10 team in the country
  2. that's why i said "assuming." if they don't have better options then it's stupid, but if Law projects them to be better, it's a perfectly cromulent opinion. Klaw is a dork. i don't know how that separates him from anyone anywhere that knows anything about baseball. pitchcs is pretty much the coolest guy in the world...but oh. Yeah.
  3. You don't think he'll be worth 1/10 in 2018?
  4. I interpreted it as "I'm a stupid moron with an ugly face and a big butt and my butt smells and I like to kiss my own butt."
  5. Why on Earth would you expect Baylor, up 24 points to go for it on 4th and 5 from midfield???
  6. Minnesota is going to be 4-1 in the Big Ten with their only loss coming against Illinois. In Illinois's other 4 Big Ten games they have led for a total of 18:16, never leading after 6:02 into the 2nd quarter. They led Minnesota for 43:24
  7. Castillo had a higher WAR the last 2 seasons and having Wieters in 2012 would have cost us Kris Bryant
  8. What the pre-determined point is doesn't matter!!!
  9. I dunno, I can't bring myself to care that Rizzo didn't win Silver Slugger, but thought it was really cool when Darwin Barney won the gold glove. Maybe I realized it was the last good thing that would ever happen to Darwin?
  10. Depends on your definition of a game
  11. I think Lake is perfect for the Brooks Kieschnick type of role at this point. Yes, whatever it is Kieschnick is doing now, I'm sure Lake would be great at it.
  12. lol Ibanez hasn't even retired yet
  13. I'm pretty sure it is.
  14. Not a whole lot really worth disliking either. He said essentially nothing. Well, aside from the fact that him saying the increased value of the franchise doesn't mean much when he's about to sell 20% of the team and profit from that increase directly. And that that money will go directly towards the stadium reno, which I expected, but still disappointing to have it confirmed. ETA: And "But there are 29 other teams, so you have to be rational, while being aggressive." Well, it means that the renos will almost be paid in a lump sum and we at least don't have to worry about hearing about paying those off for years, which I feel like a lot of us feared. Even I didn't think they'd keep our payroll low to pay for reno
  15. I'm just glad Kyle's found a new thing for today.
  16. Ahhhh, so Mike Trout is valuable.

  18. Brett recapped the interview. http://www.bleachernation.com/2014/11/06/tom-ricketts-speaks-maddon-spending-tv-deal-stake-sale-rooftops-epstein-extension/ Not a whole lot I'm liking from it.
  19. The best part about Tom Ricketts radio interviews is none of this http://www.chicagonow.com/cubs-insider/files/2011/10/tom-ricketts-firing-hendry.jpeg
  20. Jeff Sullivan wrote a really stupid article for fangraphs. http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/let-us-address-the-angels-super-hypothetical/
  21. Why would we have to give up less by getting Brown? If the Phillies want to get rid of Brown they'll non-tender him.
  22. Nah let's just add that to John Lannan or Kyle Kendrick
  23. Also Schwarber hasn't hit AA yet and may not be a catcher.
