    Happ was promoted to Double A

    Trading Jimmy wouldn't make any sense at this point unless they are also planning to turn around Robin Lopez. Otherwise, why take on his contract so that he can be the starting center of a garbage team? I guess its possible that they would then turn around and trade him for an expiring.
  4. UMFan83
    That's false Fisola said they were one of the team pursuing him. Unless he reported it outside of Twitter That said I also heard OKC was interested in Jimmy Butler. New teams added to the rumor mill on draft day makes me think that he's very very much available and its possible the Bulls have decided to trade him no matter what.

    new worst lineup of the year? (I know its still not that bad)
  6. UMFan83
    Yeah seriously, I think I could do a better job using MS Paint. Also they used a picture of Rose when his hair was hideous.
  7. UMFan83
    It is very meaningful to people with Season Tickets. true, but with the fairly decent possibility that games 6 and definitely 7 never happen, it's not THAT big of a deal from that angle, i think. plus we're definitely winning in 4 or 5 so Yes, whenever I picture the Cubs winning the World Series, I always imagine it being like the Red Sox and White Sox that once they get over that hump (for the Red Sox it was the Yankees, for the White Sox it was getting to the WS), they just steamroll through the WS in a sweep.

    Stevie Franchise Dammit, how do they leave Grant Hill out? The connection is that they were all former star PGs that busted out and then the Knicks acquired them.
  9. UMFan83
    There are reports the Bulls are set to pick Wade Baldwin if available at 14. Look up his NBA comps and you will see.........Spencer Dinwiddie
  10. UMFan83
    Rose, ? , Penny, Marbury...who's that 2nd one? Stevie Franchise
  11. UMFan83
    If Jurgen bolts, is there any speculation on candidates for coach? Please don't say someone like Roberto Martinez Edit: Whoops, it was just asked in the previous post.
  12. UMFan83
    hahaha, sorry. That is the first one I've been duped on, and I should have known better What'd you fall for? Fake Woj bomb saying that the Bulls were in advanced discussions on a 3 way trade with Toronto and Miami to send Jimmy Butler to the Heat. For a brief second I thought 'wow the Bulls are actually going to strip down and completely rebuild'

    Its not even some crappy games. The first 2 games were 1 run games for the last 5-6 innings of each, and the Cubs had multiple opportunities to tie it and in both games they had the tying runner in scoring position in the 9th. We are 2 clutch hits from rubbing in another series win in their stupid faces. I'm not saying to not give them credit, they won fair and square just like we did in the close games we've won against them this year. I'm just saying there doesn't need to be some justification as to why they swept us. They won 2 games that could have gone either way and played really well in the 3rd game.

    [tweet] [/tweet] Sounds like the Mets lucked out big time
  15. UMFan83
    Yeah since they started out 24-6 they've gone 23-17 which is a 93 win pace. I'm fine with them playing at that pace the rest of the year but obviously I strive for and think they are capable of better. We will take our lumps while we have all these injuries but the upside is we are breaking in some talented players that will be valuable for us when we are back at full strength. All things you can live with when you build up a huge lead.
  16. UMFan83
    So Cubs win 23 straight Arrieta starts, and then immediately lose 3 of the next 5 :/

    I had a Rose jersey and a Noah jersey. Now I have nothing, but honestly there's no current Bull whose jersey or shirsey i really want. Maybe Jimmy I guess.
  19. UMFan83
    7 Double Plays in this series now....
  20. UMFan83
    I'm not sure I'm ready to live in a world where the Cardinals are leading the season series over us.
  21. UMFan83
    Schwarber goes down, we have Soler Soler goes down, we (indirectly) have Javy Dex goes down, we have Almora Miggy goes down, we have Contreras Yes not all of them are upgrades or equivalents but they aren't replacement level garbage either.
  22. UMFan83
    hahaha you're back! please stay forever Hey Dave. It seems like the forum has much less participation. The Cubs are winning like a mother...what gives? We kicked out all the idiots. Well most of them at least.
  23. UMFan83
    I'm praying the addition of Warren to the rotation is to somehow ensure Jake pitches the Sunday before the ASB and therefore can't pitch in the game.
  24. UMFan83
    Also this will likely continue the trend of the Cubs losing the last game of every homestand this season. The only reason I notice is because they always have their road trip theme planned, and then everyone on twitter flips out that they are having fun after a loss.
  25. UMFan83
    Posted earlier He has gone 6 or less in 6 of his last 11 starts. In the 11 before that he went 7 in 10 of them. As long as he's not injured I think he will figure it out again, and I mean 5 innings of 0 or 1 ER is still pretty impressive. Yes, hopefully he figures out his command because I don't like the Rich Harden version of Arrieta. Damn that is a near perfect comp, bravo.
