  1. And it freed up money and a position for Zobrist.

    No, but there are rumors that Twitter is going to stop counting links against character count in the future. Also, this post summarizes the @reply thing pretty well: https://blog.bufferapp.com/twitter-mistake Cool - thx for the tips, guys

    One last stupid question: Is there a way to attach a link without it counting against the character count?
  4. Our advance scout for Cincy just sucks. Babe Cozart.

    [tweet] [/tweet] it's there, but you started it with an @ so it's buried in your tweets with replies section (and will only show up in the streams of people who also follow the cubs). i'd tweet it out again. Should I be using # instead of @?

    huh...I suck at twitter. Is the one I put out there earlier about this article still there? I don't see it.
  7. I wonder if they'll go with Willson just to help keep the running game in check.
  8. I haven't gotten anything official from the Cubs. But they typically only send out media info when they sign the big dollar guys.
  9. I dug into Grimm's performance to see if there was any hope of him returning to 2015 levels of performance. Front Page Article tl;dr - maybe, but he might have to bring back his slider.
  10. Man, I hope we have a Boston 2011 draft class at some point.
  11. Would rather everyone made it so they could use the 4 days off to recruit bryce harper Yep
  12. Since this post 7 days ago, Addy has increased his line against lefties to .158/.304/.368/.673 Now we just have to work on his home/road splits this year (.930 OPS at home, .610 OPS on the road after .765/.635 last year) Have faith in the process - he's going to be really good.
  13. The offense is doing just fine
  14. Cool stuff in the press release:
  15. For example, the Cards have scored 0 or 1 runs 15 times so far this year. The Cubs have scored that few only 9 times.
  16. Here's the runs per game for the Cubs: Runs in Game Count 0 4 1 5 2 12 3 9 4 8 5 7 6 9 7 7 8 9 9 6 10 2 11 1 12 1 13 1 14 1 16 1
  17. okay...this took a ridiculous amount of time, but it is leading to some cool new features for the site. http://www.northsidebaseball.com/images/2016-07-05_21-54-31.png Here's an image comparing the Cubs runs per game histogram with the Red Sox (best scoring team in baseball) with a background of all the other mlb teams. The Cubs line at the tail is behind other teams, but they've got games out there to the right, as well. Basically, the Cubs have fewer clunkers than the vast majority of teams and a lot more good games than other teams. They are no more Jekyll and Hyde than any other team except for the fact that they actually have more good games than the other schmucks.
  18. running behind while working today, but... Woo, Addison!
  19. btw - I think the whole "Russell can't hit lefties" thing is done.
  20. ASB is coming at the right time for this pitching staff
  21. Because Lackey stood his buck-toothed butt on the mound and didn't cover home while Billy Hamilton circled the bases.
