  1. I dunno, give them a new stadium downtown and an owner that isn't actively sabotaging them and they might do well. Sternberg is actively sabotaging them?
  2. Expand the playoff to 5 teams so all of them can get in.
  3. Hmmm, he had interviewed for the GM job this past summer.
  4. Hard to say without knowing the progression of prospects and who we sign, but if we aren't good, you could have several contributors dealt(Valbuena, Castillo, some vet OF, Wood if he isn't permanently Jaxon.)
  5. It's a gamble. I would have made the bet with odds (like you give $750 if the Cubs finish .500 or below, you get $1000 if they finish above). There are too many variables, too many young players who we don't know how long it will take them to adjust to bigs, injuries, the possibility of the Cubs starting off slow and Theo deciding to be sellers at the deadline one more time, etc. Nope. And that last part is definitely not happening. With Lester, I don't think he needs odds on that. I think he probably should give odds, if anything. Then again, teams never project for more than like 85 wins so what do I know. What do you mean the last part is definitely not happening?
  6. That's what everyone was saying about Girardi last year. And Epstein 3 years ago.
  7. Was the price really absurd? Was there ever any rumored price when we claimed him off of waivers? Nope, just a sketchy(IIRC) report about them wanting Urias, Seager, and Pederson. I believe there was even a denial of that by Amaro. I may have dreamt all this.
  8. He never played more than 49 games at SS in a season for the Mariners Farm, maxing out at 10 HRs.
  9. It's to the point that I was genuinely surprised that he was right at how rarely Blanco GIDPs
  10. http://www.stltoday.com/sports/baseball/professional/dewitt-expects-significant-rise-in-payroll-in-coming-years/article_5a4bc596-8af2-5ffb-8516-648aa2962e1a.html Cardinals to raise payroll. (And they have a TV deal expiring the year before ours? GD IT)
  11. I really don't get the equal hate for a Team with a rapist vs a team with annoying fans
  12. Ha, anything else about Winston remind you of Roethlisberger, Kirk?
  13. Please?!? hahahaha. I think it'll be Beaty or Warinner. Bowen if he wins a few games. Narduzzi if there's a God. Illinois could kinda sorta use Narduzzi.
  14. lol. sports fans are the worst. Amazing
  15. Citation needed.
  16. I wasn't aware WVA would run nothing but HB dives
  17. I know Baylor can score 14 points in like 22 seconds, but I'm not so sure about punting down 2 TDs with 5:30 remaining to a team that has put up 41 on you thus far.
  18. http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/where-i-was-wrong-about-the-royals/ Dave Cameron is somehow more annoying when he's trying to say he may have been wrong about something(but really I was still pretty much right)
  19. There is literally nothing Funk does better than Larivee
  20. This isn't complimentary to Bulls fans
  21. I don't want anyone with a BB-K ratio below 2.
