  1. I'm still skeptical about this team's potential as-is. I think this is a good enough pitching staff to make a run, but I just don't think the offense is good enough. Even if Barney climbs out of his black hole and certain guys go on hot streaks, players like Castillo and Schierholtz aren't going to keep hitting like this. Don't get me wrong, the Cubs can build around this offense. They're just not there yet.
  2. Oddly enough, the only pitchers on this team with negative WAR per Fangraphs are Rondon and Marmol. There's room to improve, but the pen actually isn't too bad so far this season. What this team needs more than anything is offense, particularly in the OF.

  7. Nuke the bullpen from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
  8. I find it to be a good sign that it was reportedly Baez who broke up the first run-in between Baez and the Clearwater player.
  9. So you're saying the meatballs in Chicago are going to love him?
  10. Not with his contract. I doubt Baez will be better than Castro defensively when he arrives at the big leagues, because of how much bigger he'll be. Baez will look great at 3B. Castro's listed at 6'0 190 lbs and Baez is listed at 6'1 205 lbs. Are you expecting Baez to grow or add weight? Otherwise, I don't think an inch and 15 pounds is that much of a difference.
  11. her "brother" who he had spoken to called him. gave him an address to send flowers to, which he did. Wait a second, so a group of sociopaths are responsible for this now? I thought this was just one catfish.
  12. Or he's gay and made it up because he doesn't want to deal with the Homophobia Trifecta of the Mormon Church, the Catholic Church and the NFL? Which, honestly, makes me feel worse for him than if he was suckered into believing some Canadian girlfriend scam. What if it turns out that Te'o was actually pulling off an epic troll that spiraled out of control? The NFL Draft analysis of that alone would be incredible.

  14. That just about sums it up.

  18. But I want to keep thinking Notre Dame is going to get squashed like a bug.
  19. I wouldn't have it any other way.
  20. Part 1 For those of you who missed it.

  22. I like the thought of a Garza-Samardzija-Sanchez-EJax-Feldman rotation, but that's probably asking too much at this point. Let Baker start the season in the pen to get stretched out and have Wood be long reliever/spot starter/whatever. Guys will eventually get injured, so they'll get their opportunities. That would be a pretty solid pitching staff.
  23. Because that's so much worse than the MAC/WAC/FCS non-conference Wisconsin has had for the last few years. Hey now, Oregon State actually ended up being good this season.
  24. Almora. It's really close between him and Soler for me, but I have a better feeling about Almora than Soler for some reason. Can't quite put my finger on why, though.
