  1. He's the #1 non Harper FA I want over the next few years Trout?
  2. Hot damn...I'd really love to sign the elder Gurriel. He has one of the best bats in the world. I know it's Cuba, but he's batting .535/.604/1.012 this year in 23 games, so it isn't as if his skills have shown any signs of diminishing yet. I have no idea how we'd get him in the lineup, but I don't really care. He'd make the team better. I'd also like to sign the younger Gurriel, just because I want all the Cubans.
  3. That actually reflects how few players from the system there are left that were produced from the draft by the previous regime. Only the exceptional players from the Epstein drafts have had time to make the majors. That number will go up as additional players in the system make the roster in the next couple years.
  4. I'm also dreaming that the Cubs have a lineup with seven guys that could all reach 4-5 WAR. Wait...that's real.
  5. Oh yeah, definitely.

    It appears as though we need at least two new managers and a new commissioner. Anyone want to step up for the latter?

    1) Are we realigning for this year? 2) Can we get the draft order fixed so that we can swap the already traded draft picks? 3) Can we get a roll call so that we know everyone is coming back? 4) Can y'all please send me some damned cash?!?
  8. That was my reaction as well CCR is the new EPDs Credence?
  9. We've got the personnel to break up the lefties all the way down the lineup, so I'd probably do that. My lineup would look something like this: Heyward (L) Zobrist (S) Rizzo (L) Bryant ® Schwarber (L) Soler ® Montero (L) Pitcher Russell ® You could convince me to shuffle the guys batting 2/4/6 or 1/3/5 in just about any order among their subgroup as long as it didn't leave Bryant or Rizzo batting lower than 4th in the lineup though. Hell, I would be fine with something like this even: Rizzo (L) Bryant ® Schwarber (L) Soler ® Heyward (L) Zobrist (S) Montero (L) Pitcher Russell ® Against righties, I'd probably start with something like this: Heyward (L) Bryant ® Rizzo (L) Zobrist (S) Schwarber (L) Soler ® Montero (L) Pitcher Russell ® If Soler was tearing the cover off the ball, I'd swap him and Zobrist. Against lefties, I'd probably go: Zobrist (S) Rizzo (L) Bryant ® Schwarber (L) Soler ® Heyward (L) Ross ® Pitcher Russell ®
  10. Trey McNutt is alive?!? And throwing 95?!?
  11. Yeah, its time to get that going.

    If there's one thing I can count on, it is Illinois having a slew of five stars. It is cool not even having to bother paying attention.
  13. Big deal for me. I'm a night owl and when i do work I usually cant check the forum until after midnight. During these slow offseason months its OK but it was torture during the season and key offseason dates. Whatever you did to fix that, thank you! I updated mysql and changed over the storage type to implement record-level locking instead of file-level.
  14. It should work now. I had to clear my browser cache for it to work, though.
  15. 404 Not Found huh...www.nsbb.com/forum works. Time to google .htaccess coding again. :(
  16. 404 Not Found That's wild...it worked the other day.
  17. He's at best late summer, I think. I just missed the minor league deal. I hope he can be a valuable piecedown the stretch or next year.
  18. - we gave a private workout to Heredia, along with the Astros and "several other teams" That's it for any teams attached to any players.
  19. I'm actually happy to see Leathersich there. I didn't know we were able to retain his services.

  21. Fine...it's there.
  22. I'm pretty sure I'd go with Heyward, but I'm just happy to have so many great hitters.
