  1. This message board isn't dying, the F'in Cobs are just historically frustrating. I've been lurking at this board for the entirety of my adult life and I'll be damned if it dies on me. All of my best jokes were stolen from here. Anyway, I don't really have a problem with those three not being traded. Marshall is awesome and Marmol is destined to sit on our DL for most of the next decade, so there is no use fighting it. Dempster wouldn't get us anything worth nearly as much as his 5 or 6 awesome jokes per year. Each of those are valued at 1.5 wins a piece.
  2. I wouldn't want to hire a manager that quits on his team because he doesn't think he will be re-signed.
  3. Good for him, he deserves it. I'll always prefer the Cub's radio broadcast, but that's not a knock against Len, he does a great job.
  4. I can probably get behind trading Marmol and having Wood close for us until he retires. I can't really get behind Cashner going to the bullpen. Really, really wouldn't like trading Soto.
  5. More or less in the bag.
  6. Well, shoot. Now what reason do we have for watching this team?
  7. I haven't really watched or listened to the games this year, but is Quade really doing that bad of a job? I find it hard to believe that any manager could get this team winning, so I don't hold that against him much, what is he doing so terrible?
  8. Looked at Cubs.com, thought to myself "Who the hell is R. Lopez?" and then closed it. This team isn't fun.
  9. So, uh, think he'll have better range than Vlad did?
  10. Rally time.
  11. Yesterday I had a horrible headache, I misplaced two important papers, broke the door off of a company aircraft, and while at work from 7am to 8pm I made a little over twenty dollars. Before tax. Then I went to the gas station and the lady behind the counter asked me how my day was going. I replied, "Pretty well, how about you?"
  12. Aramis is awesome :(
  13. I wanna see what our Baseball Prospectus odds for the playoffs are if we play the Mets every day for the rest of the year. BAM! Just turned on 720 and it isn't the 5th inning. F yeah.
  14. I've seen this story before. The Tigers will catch them in the final weeks of the season. There may even be a 1 game playoff. Then one of those two will get swept in the ALDS.
  15. Recent improvements count in so much as they leave his overall numbers in "really bad 1B territory". That is where we stand at present. That's just silly.
  16. I like that lineup. edit: Didn't see Hill in there. Nevermind.
  17. I hope one day I turn on wgn720 and it isn't the 5th inning.
  18. Hendry said today that "Castillo will probably start sooner than later" I wonder if moving Soto to first if they whiff on Pujols is an option.
  19. We keep that guy around for his defense.
  20. I could see that being interference on the batter since he should have gotten out of the way when the ball went to first.
