  1. So according to Wittmeyer Arrieta is open to a "reasonable" extension. Do we need to see more, or do we lock him up as soon as we can?
  2. Who would you rather have for the next 5 years: Hendricks or Arrieta?
  3. I hate that Rizzo, Alcantara and Baez aren't hitting all that well at the same time.
  4. Admittedly don't catch many ABs but man if all of them are like that, Baez will never walk. It looks like he's just guessing up there.
  5. Yeah but only if you don't request before the deadline in March and only if you aren't changing teams.
  6. Looks like James Russell still can't get lefties out
  7. Would it beat a team of players the Bulls were favorites to land? Nobody could beat the Bulls FA 2nd place finishes. They are the dream team of FA 2nd place finishes. PG: LeBron James SG: Kobe Bryant SF: Carmelo Anthony PF: Kevin Garnett C: Chris Bosh BN: Dwyane Wade, Kevin Love, younger Pau Gasol
  8. Fun fact: We've gone 3-1 in our last 4 Jaxon A+B starts, with 4 quality starts
  9. http://www.iuhoosiers.com/sports/m-baskbl/recaps/081014aaa.html Hoosiers fall to Ottawa Gee-Gees
  10. He's going to be the best of them all. This is why I was wondering why everyone was so down on him in the offseason. The dude just oozes talent. If he can stay on the field he's a top 10 prospect IMO possibly top 3
  11. We've played 19 extra innings of baseball over our last 12 games and counting
  12. Really good defensively, making a reasonable amount of contact. .288 BABIP is probably a smidge low for his skill set. But he's not going to hit for huge average. He's going to draw walks, hit for average power, run the bases well, and play good defense. Thanks. I obviously know BA is not any sort of legit measuring stick but I didn't make the effort to look up the full statistical breakdown. 4-5 wins is excellent
  13. Someone who watches the Cubs more than me: how has Alcantara looked recently? I see his average has dipped below .230. Is he having good ABs?
  14. Javi gets at least 1 hit in 5 of his first 6 games.
  15. Did you miss that whole thing? Yeah I must have. Just caught up reading about his bullpen session at MMP and all the Astros players bitching about it.
  16. How the hell was he promoted to AA after an ERA of almost 10 in High A??
  17. He's not racing now
  18. I think it's just that white kids are doing this now
  19. Well only 3 Javi Ks today. An improvement
  20. Out of his six straight K's, three were chasing awful pitches, two were getting overwhelmed by stuff in the zone, one was being overly patient and looking at hittable strikes. Thanks
  21. Haven't been able to watch much of Baez the last 2 games. Is his approach terrible? Is he just getting behind in counts and not recovering, is he just going up there flailing?
  22. So wait what's keeping Soler at AAA until September? Not enough ABs this year? Who cares.
