    When did they have promise? When they lost to NF to start the season? Oh never mind it must have been when they barely beat Yale to get to .500. Again, they were down three starters in both those games. They have some talent, but no depth to overcome being down 3 starters. Of course the complexion of any team is going to change if 60% of the expected starting lineup is missing for nearly the entire season. Enough to go from "had some promise" to "train wreck." Of course Groce being in over his head plays a part as well, but there was certainly some talent to hope on, at least. Not that any of this matters in the least, just didn't get why that was such an outrageous claim.

    It's not like "had some promise" is some kind of over the top optimism. Before they lost three starters, they had a chance to be interesting. I don't get why that's controversial.

    He has them #15.
  4. Bobson Dugnutt
    Yeah, no big surprise considering how high he is on some of our prospects (EJM & Contreras come to mind), but still nice to see.
  5. Bobson Dugnutt
    Cubs are #4.
  6. Bobson Dugnutt
    Two shortstops is too many?

    Travis Wood?

    This is pretty silly, but I just stumbled on this on Facebook and it made me laugh so I thought I'd share it: I took Broadcast Journalism at U of I with the host of the video. He was a really good dude and now his job basically seems like doing fun stuff like this with athletes and celebrities, so good for him.

    Pretty sure Buehrle, Burnett, & Harang are all retiring.

    I hate how so many people just have no clue what constitutes a quality ace/#2/#3/etc. There were 14 pitchers in all of baseball last year that threw 200 innings and had 200 strikeouts. Outside of James Shields, every one of them had a WAR over 4, and outside of Shields and Hamels, every one had a WAR of at least 5. There is no way anyone should be expecting Shark to put up those numbers, but if he does, then he's either not our #3 for 2016, or he's the best #3 in a long time. He did it in 2013 & 2014. He would have done it in 2012 as well if he hadn't been on an innings limit where he was shut down after September 8.

    No.

    Illinois is down double digits to Chicago State. It's going to be a long year.

    Heyward doesn't strike out that much.
  20. Bobson Dugnutt
    They are probably not that good, but both teams they lost two are tourney quality teams and the Providence game was on the road. Yep. They've been dealing with some injuries too. No Nunn yet, Black missed the first game, Tate is out, Abrams is out for the year, so they've been playing a bit short-handed.
  21. Bobson Dugnutt
    What's the outlook on Martinez for next year? Is his shoulder injury expected to carry over into next season at all?
  22. Bobson Dugnutt
    Yeah, it's probably a combination of a lot of top prospects moving up to the majors in 2015, and Law just being particularly high on the Cubs system. I'd be surprised if the Cubs were consistently this high across publications, but given how high Law seems to have been on some of the Cubs prospects recently (Martinez and Contreras come to mind), I'm not too surprised at the score. The Astros, Dodgers, Rangers, Phillies, Braves & Pirates scored just below the Cubs.
  23. Bobson Dugnutt
    I know there's been some discussion around here in the last week or two about where the Cubs farm system would rank this offseason, so I thought it worth mentioning that only the Red Sox received a higher minors grade than the Cubs. Of course, that's just one guy's ranking, but it appears that Law is still very very high on the system even after all the graduations.

    This is based on what? Your eye test? Meanwhile, back in the real world, Corey Black has been chosen for the AZL All-Star Game. Keep your day job, ace. He has 6 innings and the scouting reports haven't been favorable. But since you want to live in the real world, the 7.11 ERA he has in the AFL is awfully snazzy. hahahahaha.

    LOL Zeke DeVoss.
