  1. It didn't have supplemental, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th round picks. And Samardzija's a nice return for a 5th round pick, no matter what they paid.
  2. I am concerned that they'll never try and develop any power from Castro, cause after all he's a SS, and shortstops back in my day didn't hit no damn home runs, they bunted, and went the other way and played the game the right way.
  3. I don't buy that. I know it's the popular opinion, but I think he's just trying to apply pressure.
  4. It's a jock culture, I'm sure there's a lot more unreported cases than reported ones. If you haven't read it, pick up a copy of ESPN: The Uncensored History. Goes into a lot of detail about these kinds of activities. Also makes you wonder how Mike Tirico still has a job. He's got a nice voice.
  5. What is the Mets style of trying? Get a few really good players and fill in the gaps with flaming poop? How are the Cubs doing that exactly?
  6. It's a jock culture, I'm sure there's a lot more unreported cases than reported ones.
  7. How many years of postseason failure proves a team can't go far in the playoffs? Should the Angels start selling off pieces? How about the Yankees?
  8. Steve Phillips looks like that guy on Mad Men
  9. I'm happy that we're up to like a 3% chance of retaining Bradley.
  10. Johjima was pretty decent his first couple years. He just became an old catcher.
  11. http://www.sporcle.com/games/ChemicalToilet/cubs_HOF All HOFers who've ever played for the Cubs. I got 20/36.
  12. I didn't, I have integrity.
  13. BC's an 8 point favorite?? That can't be right.
  14. wait, so he's arguing that it should be easy to make the playoffs when you're in the al east? I think he'd know, he has a journalism degree unlike these idiot bloggers.
  15. Getting rid of Bradley under the pretense of improving clubhouse chemistry I could see working on the average Cub fan(EVEN THERIOT SAID HE WAS CANCER). I think the average Cub fan would make fun of them spending money on a hitting coach. (These are grown men, making MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, and a coach is going to help them???)
  16. I don't see any way that would work for the casual fan base. If they wanted a hitting coach to be a big name improvement it woulda been Sandberg
  17. Did I just hear that CNS football is more important than Alabama football?
  18. He anticipates events because he can't keep up with the action in real time. Same way he called the Twins fly out DP.
  19. Calvin Pickering had to weigh more than that.
  20. Cool stuff. Picking nits, Gaetti is older than Franco(though Franco obviously played at an older age. And Fernando Martinez and Andrus are older than Snider.
  21. Why are the Raiders trading McFadden?
  22. Haha, love the casual deep breath followed with a nonchalant f bomb by Hallion.
