  1. A beyond idiotic statement. There are reasons to be concerned about Castro. Not one of them has actually been addressed by tonight's broadcast team. Shulman and he have been Brutal all night. They have been non stop bashing everything Cubs pretty much all night. Bad insight, no clue about our prospects and really no clue about Theo and Jed's plan.
  2. Hersheiser now saying as a Baseball person (Theo) you see an inning like this and it makes you say: "Did we really invest in the right players". When it rains, it pours.
  3. The Cubs bull pen: Dashing playoff hopes by May.
  4. He wasn't a terrible hitter before 28, so it's not like it came out of nowhere. He's been a good all-around player from 24 onwards. The OPS jump is pronounced starting in 2011. So what? It looks more unusual because of 2010, but other than that he was basically getting better as he got older. It's hardly unheard of. Catchers do have a late aging curve, but even for them going from "one above average offensive season through age 28" to "Top 20 of all hitters since the beginning of 2012" is extreme. And of course, even that would be easier to bear if it weren't in conjunction with Carpenter, Jay, Craig, and Adams all meeting(if not exceeding) even optimistic projections for their careers to date.

  5. Hughes sucks now. Overly excited on opposing teams getting hits, scoring, etc.
  6. Luis has been just [expletive] unreal! Talk about a find.
  7. Shulman: "It's got to be so tough to be a Cubs fan. There have been times it seems that enjoying the sunshine and enjoying an adult beverage or two was enough. Now that Theo is here, expectations came along with him". Look, dummy. We had expectations long before Theo got here. Quit generalizing you [expletive]!!
  8. I like the garbage and trash in the same sentence thing. :hello:
  9. Eh. I'd buy that argument if we found a horseshoe once in a while, but we never do. It probably has to do with the Cardinals being a far superior organization to our Cubs. Theo and Jed are here to change that. So you think they're coaching clutch? No but they do have far better player developmentover over the years. Sprinkle in a Holliday here and a Beltran there and you get the idea. Oh yeah they're better ran, but they're getting very lucky this year to have those numbers. I know but I think the magical pixie dust and all that luck stuff regarding them is a tad much. They win because they're a very solid organization. We will get there with Theo and Jed as well.

  12. Haha! 9 back in the wild card. http://www.walkoffwalk.com/cinema.majorleague.jobosmoking.jpg
  13. And easily the best bat flip in the history of Baseball.
  14. When he gets on one of his tears like this, it's as if he is facing little league pitching.
  15. Somehow I don't think peeling a piece of clothing off a cardboard standup of Laura Ricketts after each win will provide much motivation for the team. I don't think I have ever seen a picture of her. The lady in the original Major League movie was not half bad.
  16. This winning thing the Cubs have been doing is fun! Now it would be very Cubs like of them to go on a serious run before the trade deadline and pull within 5 of a WC spot. They can pull the old Major League Indians movie on us and: "win the whole [expletive] thing"! And no, I don't at all think that will happen this year. Just sayin.
