    Vizcaino is gonna be up very soon.

    I've tried 5 times now but still don't quite get. There are people who will tell you, even now, that a large portion of the Cubs reduced payroll is going to things like scouting, player development, infrastructure, etc. when, in actuality, to steal a line from Kyle, short of diamond and gold encrusted laptops for every scout, it would be really hard to come up with a way for this stuff to even make a small dent in that money. This crazy computer that practically takes up an entire room is one of the most insane things they could have dreamt of buying that fits within that realm (outside of a new building/facility or something) and it still costs less than a decent player pickup off the scrap heap. This computer is so totally awesome. I hope it takes up an entire building and is becoming self-aware.

    Yeah, Bradley or c-ya. Towers isn't that much of a dumbass.
  4. Tangled Up in Plaid
    Yeah, Kiley loves Almora. I remember him comp'ing him to Carlos Beltran before the draft.
  5. Tangled Up in Plaid
    Seriously, I hope I survive when baseball teams are managed by computers like HAL 9000.

    The Cubs will be the first team to have a cyborg as a base coach.

    My CPU is a neuro-net processor, a learning computer.

    Situations when "going north" is OK: http://i.imgur.com/ejyfIgj.gif

    Leal.

    Almora's not going to get faster and it's unlikely his walk rate will rise to the necessary levels. I'd say he could be top 15 if he starts hitting more HR. Best case scenario would be a batting line like Jeter in his prime with GG defense in CF.
  11. Tangled Up in Plaid
    going northeast
  12. Tangled Up in Plaid
    Ooooh, [expletive] yeah.
  13. Tangled Up in Plaid
    I'd rather have Kolek than Turner at this point.
  14. Tangled Up in Plaid
    I think Leal could handle KC as well, but I guess there's no reason to push it given his age. Hey, today's his birthday. Happy 19th. http://www.baseball-reference.com/minors/player.cgi?id=leal--000eri
  15. Tangled Up in Plaid
    I feel like Walter Sobchak. Who the [expletive] is Rany and why do we care.

  17. Tangled Up in Plaid
    Nope.
  18. Tangled Up in Plaid
    He didn't get many ABs in Boise, but I would have to think so, given his age.
  19. Tangled Up in Plaid
    Torrez and Leal.

    You could do a lot worse. The problem is the other four guys are three no. 3 starters and another no. 5.
  22. Tangled Up in Plaid
    Darnell McDonald? Seriously?
  23. Tangled Up in Plaid
    Kalish?
  24. Tangled Up in Plaid
    No one else mentioned two secondaries. Changeup?
  25. Tangled Up in Plaid
    I like Bruno, but Rosscup could be a dominant pen lefty in the major leagues this year and beyond. What would Bruno's absolute dream ceiling be? 2005-2007 Freddy Sanchez?
