    Ugh he was out but Ricky used his challenge
  2. UMFan83
    Is a 41% K rate bad?
  3. UMFan83
    I'm convinced that a segment of meatball Cubs fans is never going to like Baez no matter how good he is because he's always going to have terrible swings on occasion and is always going to strike out a ton.

    Jaxon B to go on DL soon?
  5. UMFan83
    We win! (again) What the [expletive] is Bochy pissed about? That they didn't forefit the game in favor of the Giants?
  6. UMFan83
    Will be funny if the Cubs win this without hitting the ball out of the infield the last 4 innings.
  7. UMFan83
    If the Cubs don't score 3 more runs in this game, it will make 13 straight games scoring 4 or less runs

    I'M GONNA GO MAKE A SCENE. I'm right under Len and JD. Avenge my death. Yell something about NSBB and see if the mic picks it up

    Damn it's quiet at Wrigley and most of the fans I see there are Giants fans.

    I can understand the "feeling" of being targeted...UMFan pointed out all the rule changes that have impacted the Cubs long term plans, but I'm sure that's just an immediate reactionary thing. No Bud Selig didn't randomly decide he doesn't like the Cubs and wants to make it unfair for them. I should have said "targeting teams like the Cubs" because that is closer to what I meant. Seems like every time the Cubs find a way to gain a competitive edge, the rules change. And yes it was a bit of an immediate reactionary thing.
  11. UMFan83
    Yes he's hurt. That's why he's pitching so bad. Somehow we just discovered it. Once he's healthy in like a week he will pitch great. Remember teams only 10 more days left to add a Jaxon to aid your playoff push!

    Ronny Cedeno is still trying to play baseball for a living?

    Cubs management was oddly sympathetic to the Giants cause on this one. I wonder how much that pisses off the players. Yup:
  14. UMFan83
    This is ridiculous and I think the Cubs (and a couple other teams to a lesser extent) are being targeted. Since Theo took over the MLB has: -Completely overhauled the way teams can approach the draft by putting spending limits with strict penalties for going over, directly contrasting with how Theo built the Red Sox -Completely overhauled the way teams can sign international FAs by also putting spending limits and strict penalties -Gave every team in the NL Central besides the Cubs a sandwhich pick every year in the draft -Limited contact between scouts and young international talent after the Cubs invested millions on a top of the line training academy in the DR The MLB is so concerned with parity and closing the revenue gap yet look at who is currently in a playoff spot...Kansas City, Baltimore, Oakland, Washington, Milwaukee

    What they are going to do is pray that he can start the season with some level of competence and hope they can jettison him while eating 75% of the last 1.5 years on his contract. If not, then he becomes a long reliever that pitches once every 2 weeks. Then by June of 2016 he is DFAd
  16. UMFan83
    Jaxon ERA up to 6.09 for the season. Impressive.

    View the fact that we probably wouldn't have gotten Bryant with Anibal pitching as a consolidation prize. the two things wouldn't have been related whatsoever Try again. You probably can't even say we wouldn't have gotten Schwarber. Also what's a consolidation prize?

    I'm going to have the 3rd pick of the draft in a keeper league. QBs are really valuable due to weird scoring in their favor, so QBs get snatched up in like 9 of the first 12 picks...its really weird. Anyways, I am debating between 4 keepers..I pick 2....yes my team sucked last year. Aaron Rodgers as a 1st round pick, AJ Green as a 2nd, Frank Gore in the 5th and Zac Stacy in the 8th. I'm thinking Green and Stacy because I'll probably be able to take Rodgers or someone comperable anyways as a 1st round pick. Stacy is pretty solid as the starter right?
  23. UMFan83
    ok now thats insane. on what grounds?
  24. UMFan83
    Now Rose is not playing tonight....apparently got treatment on the knee
  25. UMFan83
    the giants claimed that the cylinder thats used to roll out the tarp should be considered a mechanical device or something.
