    That's actually kind of lame. But somehow still awesome because its Kris Bryant.

    What say you now Paterno truthers?
  3. UMFan83
    Ok I don't care if he hits .150 with 250 ks I want him to be on our team

    Well I meant within the Cubs organization specifically not predicting how they would fare in an MLB wide top 50. Like does Eloy have more trade value than Javy Baez? Where would you each of rank them? etc.

    Fangraphs is doing their annual Top 50 trade value feature this week. Anyone with a better grasp of the Cubs as a whole want to take a stab at their Cubs Top 20 (or 30 or 50 or whatever) trade value? Like Fangraphs things like age, contract, ceiling, projectability, all factor into it, but because its specific to the Cubs you can factor in short/long term need, organizational depth, etc. You can include anyone in the Cubs org including the ML team. I think it would be interesting to see the difference in everyone's opinions once you get past Bryant as we approach trade deadline season with the Cubs being serious buyers for the first time in awhile.

    That is probably a good thing.
  12. UMFan83
    Yeah, someone should probably check & confirm if he's okay tried to yesterday but didn't get a response from him

    Here we are in July and his ERA is still in the 7's. I'm sure Miller will stabilize and return to respectability even if he doesn't pitch like he did last year (which wasn't even great, it 'pretty good'), but depending on how Swanson turns out this might be mentioned among the worst trades of all time when all is said and done.

    Well the NL is the road team so I guess it at least makes sense.

    Nice get for the Illini http://www.thechampaignroom.com/2016/7/11/12033616/jeremiah-tilmon-commitment-illinois-fighting-illini-basketball-recruiting-north-carolina-kansas Illini now have the #2 class in the country. Look out!

    How many times has a player that didn't make the ASG participated in the derby? I know Choi did it the year they had that format where a each player represented a country but I can't remember it happening since then. Cespedes, right? good call, and he won it too

    Buster Posey is the best hitter in the NL?

    Using this as a pre-ASG thread too. Looks like Cueto was named NL Starter

    I still think Soler turns out really good, but I think he should be a clear target to trade assuming he still has good value. I think there has been enough upside shown to get a team to bite as a key piece in a deal. But given the talent coming up, the iffy regular season so far, Schwarber returning next year, and most importantly the annual leg injuries that take a long time to heal, he seems like an obvious piece to go.

    Draymond Green arrested for assault. This will only make the Warriors even more hated. http://deadspin.com/report-draymond-green-arrested-for-assault-1783449756

    A lot of those bar bathrooms don't even have doors on the stalls. Either they were torn off by drunken idiots or they do that to prevent people from having sex/doing drugs in them.
  24. UMFan83
    Primadonna. He's the highest paid player in the league, the least he can do is show up for the fan convention #hottake #pleasedonttakemeseriously
  25. UMFan83
    that was gonna be my guess too im guessing the reason you can't ... guess it is because he plays too late in the night for most people to even know hes good Plus even among west coast teams, no one cares about Arizona. Lamb was a mediocre player his first 2 years and was never a top 50 prospect so it takes awhile to notice him. Heck even in a big market, Jake Arrieta had a 2.59 ERA between the start of 2014 and the ASB in 2015 over 280 innings and didn't make the team last year.
