I'm still intrigued with Dave Martinez, although his hiring would beg the question of why he wasn't even interviewed 2 years ago. It would just be trolling Ryno if they hired Martinez. So awesome. They could hire Raffy and Sammy as hitting coaches.
The good thing is the White Sox will probably pick some guy that should have gone in the second round so it's basically like having the 3rd pick. ??? They picked Courtney Hawkins and Tim Anderson the last two years plus Chris Sale in 2010. All solid picks given their draft position. I think he was implying the cheapness of Reinsdorf when it comes to the draft.
What if I told you on March 31st that the Cubs top 4 in wOBA at the end of the season would be: Dioner Navarro Donnie Murphy Brian Bogusevic Ryan Sweeney
I'd give him 7/200. He has zero injury history and has shown no signs of slowing down. The bat would play anywhere if he had to move off second in the last couple years of the deal.
From looking at his game long, Underwood didn't have a single start where he showed any of the potential people were talking about before the season. I hope it's just because he's raw and not that his stuff wasn't all it was hyped up to be.
