  1. iirc, the way the article described it is that he turns the water on briefly to get wet, then turns it off while he scrubs up. Then he rinses off. So it running water for 90 seconds, but the "shower" takes five minutes or so. fwiw
  2. Was saving that one for bringing in a lefty reliever A red-assed, left handed guy? Why is it not Lester?
  3. Upon reflection, I feel slightly bad that the crux of my argument here is, "NOBODY KNOWS YOUR MESSAGE BOARD EXISTS EXCEPT FOR US LONELY WEIRDOS, TIM." Cubs management knows about it. Which means that Theo probably has some poor ass staffer/intern that has to read through all this crap. Sorry, dude.
  4. CJ Edwards will pitch 80 innings, strike out 90 and walk NONE But that will be nothing compared to... Kyle Hendricks will pitch 200 IP, strike out 280 and walk absolutely nobody.
  5. Loyola vs Syracuse for the title. horsefeathers Syracuse. They're a random sport team that I just hate for some reason.
  6. - Javy reduces his K-rate below 22%; puts up OPS over .850 - Zobrist retires at the end of the year, freeing up some cash for Harper - Russell breaks through to a .275/.350/.475 line - Bryant wins NL MVP with his best line yet; tops 40 HR - Schwarber out-OPS's him - Cubs score most runs in NL and allow the fewest runs in NL - Cubs win 107 games
  7. Cubs tried to pass him through waivers and he got claimed by Seattle. http://www.thenewstribune.com/sports/mlb/seattle-mariners/article206263414.html
  8. The media narrative about the rotation only being equal to last year's is way off. They suggest that Darvish is only a slight upgrade on Arrieta. What they don't realize is that Chatwood is the new 2015 Arrieta and Darvish kicks the heck out of bucktooth all day long.
  9. Holy hell, Chatwood. Save some for the season.
  10. That was off Bumgarner, too.
  11. Maples? With five walks and two home runs in five innings? Don't think so. I get what you're saying, but it is Grimm's job to lose. Maples would have to pitch better than Grimm to take it away. It at least well enough for the team to feel confident he is ready. He hasn't come close to those things.
  12. How are Alvarez and Simmons looking this ST? I'm a little out of the loop. Alvarez has great stuff he can't control. Simmons has had even more difficulty throwing strikes and I believe he's hurt again (minor, I think).
  13. Pretty much...Grimm's unpopular but still has to his advantage that Butler is his top competition and really really sucks. ...and Alvarez, Simmons and Maples on the pitching side.
  14. If they are done with him and want Butler to get that last bullpen spot I wouldn't be surprised if he's cut before Wednesday this coming week (which is the 15 day prior to OD cut line). Maples? With five walks and two home runs in five innings? Don't think so.
  15. Good luck, Jake. I wish you nothing but the best.
  16. Does it matter for us? I was under the impression he just had to sign to max out our compensation.
  17. Your bolded line can be interpreted in a lot of ways. I absolutely agree with the sentiment in the way I interpret it - which is (one reason) why it is such a horrible thing to have Trump's daily degradation of the office.
  18. Wait...Hatch went to AAA?
  19. I'm starting to think Happ may really just have that much power.
  20. The whole idea of adding Rutgers was to be able to be more relevant in the NYC market for TV and recruiting. This is just part of that
  21. been in a game thread recently...? Probably not in the last few months, why? :)
  22. For the record, I believe my response was more like, "horsefeathers yes!"
