    Was very disappointed to see Tarrik Brock was from 2000. ETA: Felix Fermin and Bret Barberie

    Lightning strikes are the toughest injuries to come back from.

    How do we know what Boston will or will not request? There's no real precedent that I'm aware of, so I don't see how anything can be ruled out. Because they're not run by Chuck LaMar.

    I love that so hard.

    They're going to be very disappointed.

    Handsome man that one. Homered in his first ML AB in St. Louis if I'm not mistaken. Also, who could forget Anthony Young and his record losing streak? I have Bob Patterson's autograph somewhere. I got it at old County Stadium in Milwaukee. He looked pissed when he was signing. I then found out we released him the next day. Homered on the first pitch in his first MLB PA. There's like 20 guys to have ever done it.

    Uhhhh link? Made me laugh when I read it. http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/articles/2011/10/04/red_sox_should_hold_out_for_big_package_for_theo_epstein/ YOU SEE WHAT YOU'VE STARTED CUBINNY??? But yeah, that's just some loudmouth Boston writer feeding his masses. The Red Sox will not be requesting Castro or Garza in return for Epstein.

    I think Van Poppel was allowed to walk as a free agent, and we got compensation for him that I'm sure was spent on some bust. We picked up him and Worrell off the scrap heap and turned them into Bill Mueller and a comp pick. Let's do that some more.

    Brad Woodall, Dan Serafini, and Scott Sanders are all linked together forever for me.

    I think he had one year where he was awesome as a pinch hitter, and I thought he was going to be a stud. He was not.

    Haray [expletive] hated Maldonado. And Kal Daniels had the greatest Sports Machine clip of all time.

    Ryne Sandberg has had 1 interview for a major league coaching job.
  19. SouthSideRyan
    Petition to word filter "paid his dues" and "earned a shot" There are probably about 50 more tenured minor league managers than Sandberg. If his name was Joe Mcgillicuddy nobody would give a [expletive].

    Does Dave Martinez know the game? Does Dave Martinez know Cubs history? (Sub-question - Who [expletive] cares?) How do you know how Sandberg would control a major league clubhouse? What has Sandberg done to show he's a better teacher than Martinez? Let Sandberg coach in the majors for a while and see if he can handle it.
  21. SouthSideRyan
    So, basically, you have no clue on who should manage. Nobody "should" manage the team. Personally, I'd like Martinez, Bobby V. or Francona. I like Martinez because he was a relatively marginal player who was very sound defensively and has been the bench coach for one of the very best managed/coached teams in the majors for four seasons now. He's worked under an excellent manager in Joe Maddon and would ideally bring a similar approach to managing himself. Have no issue with Bobby V or Francona. But how does Martinez warrant a shot and not Sandberg? Sandberg has done all he can do to get a shot. Why do you feel Sandberg deserves a shot over Martinez?

    The sad thing is, I'm sure this is just scratching the surface. Imagine all of the dirty football and basketball players that got paid and got away with it. What an embarrassment for the B1G. It's a wonder so many wind up homeless considering the nest eggs they should have built up.

    Lake's BB rate was slightly better at AA than Flores's was at A

    Gilkey http://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/CHN/CHN199509250.shtml The point of the story was that Castillo had a hot wife. Figured you of all people would understand that. Make with the pics.
