    [tweet]https://twitter.com/NotYellon/status/833379838434168833[/tweet] You can see the new bullpen seating in these Also, sidenote, it sounds like the plaza will be ready for the opener. I hope they get the whole letting people without tickets in thing figured out with the city and the stupid bar owners eventually, because it would be a shame to have to have the thing enclosed/gated.

    I think he's a good example of why counting stats are a bad way to measure HoF candidates WAR is a counting stat it's not counting vs. rate. it's some stats are bad, some are less bad, and some are actually good.

    Yeah, unless that USA Today article left out quotes I don't get how you see what he said as "anti-Trump." He just basically acknowledged that it affected his personal travel plans and that was unfortunate, essentially. If you question any aspect of the Supreme Leader, you are anti-Trump. the funny thing is, one of those first two guys was already getting pissed at trump on inauguration weekend (and was tweeting about it) https://twitter.com/MikeWeghorst/with_replies

    I really don't think you need to pony up for the presale for a Cubs Mets game on a Thursday but I could be wrong. Doesn't strike me as an instant sellout

    i could've sworn sulley was relatively high on leno which confuses me as to why he'd want to move long off the position he has been much better at (than RT - not even to speak of flipping him around and making him learn everything in the other direction too) i mean yeah, he could possibly get better than he did last time, i guess, but he's not exactly a spring chicken anymore

    Theo trade...his second I believe. Marshall for Sappelt, Torreyes, and Wood. The first, I THINK, was the Ian Stewart trade...and a week or two before that he signed DeJesus.

    russell just checked in at sloan park on instagram, so i think that's pretty much everyone except zobrist as far as position players of any consequence. rizz kb russell schwarb heyward almora jay javy (scissors has also been there...can't recall who else)
  15. David
    It makes me at least mildly skeptical that KB didn't figure it out and was playing along a bit. But who cares, it's still funny. Yeah, I dunno. Part of me thinks that and then part of me thinks that KB is just such a nice dude that he's not going to be an ass and is the type that goes along to get along. Yeah, I don't know if he was on to anything or not, but I wouldn't expect KB to respond any differently either way. He kind of gave an annoyed "that's the goal" or something as a response iirc.

    They were mainly because he has been vocal about never having had alcohol (thought I'm not sure if he followed through on his claim that he'd drink World Series champagne) and then he has missed/been pulled from games on more than one occasion with "flu like symptoms." I know it's been talked about that he's Mormon but I'm not sure it's ever been confirmed in any sort of way (like him saying so, or it even being in print as a fact).
  17. David
    It's at least been a rumor for a while. Did I miss something in that video that had to do with that though?

    http://m.mlb.com/video/search?query=cubs MLB network was at camp yesterday and there's a bunch of intereviews and stuff posted

    Theo was on with Spiegel and Parkins, said Heyward has been looking promising vs. live pitching and his bat path is looking more like 2012, if not a little better.
  20. David
    To the earlier discussion on this... Zobrist goes into the season as the primary 2B I'm pretty sure it's going to be like last year with a little more RHP exposure for Baez. http://chicago.suntimes.com/sports/2b-or-not-2b-baez-fine-with-continued-job-share-in-cubs-infield/

    "you still want my bat?" "nope"

    I'm actually going to stray from the usual Derwood bashing and say that I like this.

    https://theathletic.com/38588/2017/02/15/batman-returns-cubs-jason-heyward-on-a-crusade-to-fix-his-swing/ does anyone here actually have a sub to the athletic who might be able to give us a synopsis?

    i don't see it. they're going to want to be cautious with him. and on top of that, they have contreras and miggy...and miggy really started to come on at the plate once he made some adjustments late in the year. i could actually see him playing himself into a little more playing time than we expect (both because he's good and because it'll keep willson fresher). if there's an injury, maybe he works his way into the mix if his knee feels good enough, but idk otherwise. He said 2018. As in when Miggy isn't around anymore. the older i get the less i have any idea of what year it currently is and i have to do math when people ask me my age...it really doesn't look good when i'm being carded somewhere.
