  1. damn schwarber almost got him but javy couldn't tag him out wait waht
  2. i know i know i like gold gloves and i cannot lie
  3. horsefeathers the brewers and their horseshit facilities
  4. mojo doesn't like regular white guys. with soler gone, he'll settle for a white cuban.
  5. That's unrelated to the Cubs. Addison Park on Clark. Bunch of apartments and commercial units and stuff. http://www.addisonparkonclark.com Also, anything on Google earth is pretty old (relatively speaking)...I think the current imaging dates back to around the end of last season. You can find more recent pictures here: Here's a nice one from a few days ago
  6. I'm going to the first game in Milwaukee next Friday night. I expect there to be 80% + Cubs fans i've been kicking around the idea of going to one of those games. still not sure if i will or not.
  7. the obnoxious cubs crowd on the road thing this year is gonna be beyond anything we've ever seen lol

  10. I don't really think it's going to be a platoon, per se, the way things have been playing themselves out in spring. Going in, I thought Jay would primarily play vs. righties and Albert vs. lefties (at least, to start), but I'm thinking Albert is going to be more or less the starter, while Jay will play against the tougher righty matchups. That's just my read on it now. So maybe 100-120 starts is a possibility? If he starts anywhere near 120 games I'd be thrilled, that would mean he's playing really well. As far as Jersey Cub Fan mentioning his injury history, I know he's had a few dings and small set backs throughout his career but would he be classified as injury prone? Not sure I'd go that far, he's just a kid and heals quickly. I think that totally depends on health and, as you mentioned, how he handles it in terms of production. I think that's what his role will be going in, but if he plays his way out of it, Jay could end up starting more.

  12. manny machado is worth a horsefeathers ton of money and is going to be like 26 or something when he hits FA. i doubt whatever he gets will constitute an overpay. it will be a lot of horsefeathering money though.
  13. Nah, he's the Zobrist replacement when he leaves in 2 years and Javy fails to be a viable everyday player because he can't hit RHP. zobrist is actually here 3 more years, tho i guess that's sorta like 2.5
  14. i would be ecstatic to see that happen but there's basically no reason to believe that do i think he can? sure, he's insanely gifted. do i expect it? far from it. i'd say it's something like 80ish% he more or less is what he is...great defensive player who will be reasonably productive if his matchups are chosen carefully and will hit you a few bombs. and that's a great success story compared to what he could've ended up being as of 2 years ago.

  16. happ is going to be our .850 OPS 2B when zobrist washes up you fools
  17. Lawrence Holmes on the Score was on yesterday with some Pittsburgh sports station to help them preview the Cubs. Obviously, he was saying good things about the Cubs because, well, the Cubs are really good. The Pittsburgh guys took offense to this and said the Cubs bought a title.
  18. Who was compared to Braun? Someone said it about Almora pre-draft. I think it was by a scout who hopefully doesn't work for the Cubs. oh my god lmao
  19. STEPHEN BRUNO SIGHTING
  20. so schwarber just did the dong thing again
  21. how truly bad would pitching have to be to grade out as replacement level with this defense
  22. oh and then we have another guy who can't even make the roster who is 22 and slugging .812 himself
