  1. Yeah, that was weird. He comps his projection to Jermaine Dye, who's career slash line is .274/.338/.488. Obviously plenty of power.
  2. Cubs in heavy pursuit of who most teams consider the top international prospect: http://www.baseballamerica.com/international/eloy-jimenez-stands-out-among-international-prospects/
  3. But does Skulina really have better stuff? I know Johnson has a plus fastball and breaking ball (can't remember if it's a curve or slider). Haven't heard anything about his changeup his year.
  4. He could be a number 2 starter? Last year BA said Johnson's ceiling was a 3. #-o
  5. That's pretty cool. Finally somewhere other than Japan.
  6. My photoshop skills are pathetic, but: http://i.imgur.com/ERSLFro.png
  7. That could go up even further than Dale.
  8. No one's going to buy in because of his average stuff. But it's really hard to ignore what he's done, and his performance has nothing to do with luck. I have him 14th right now in my top 15. I guess it's hard to get excited over any Cubs pitcher in the minors right now, so I guess we'll take it. There are two guys that could provide legitimate excitement besides Pierce Johnson. Unfortunately, one of them is probably not going to pitch this year and the other is currently not being allowed into the United States. Blackburn and Underwood could join the group depending on their outings the rest of the year, or even Maples for that matter. Zastryzny as well. note: spell check's suggestion for Zastryzny was Astronomy.
  9. There seems to be an abnormal amount of Cardinals fans working in sports television.
  10. No one's going to buy in because of his average stuff. But it's really hard to ignore what he's done, and his performance has nothing to do with luck. I have him 14th right now in my top 15.
  11. Really? It's really hard to find managers that aren't morons. I don't think Joe Maddon's going to be available any time soon.
  12. Even those three inning saves with a 10 run lead.
  13. Inconceivable. And yeah, send Pierce to Daytona, please.
  14. First guy to defend Marmol in any way gets a grenade.
  15. Now let's give him some mop up innings to dominate in so we can try it again in a couple weeks.
  16. Do not want. Marmol just gave up a homer to Marlon Byrd. Seriously.
