Jimmy is a beast

Aside from the obvious benefits to backloading that we've discussed here a ton (and you'd backload the extensions on the young guys too), we'd be on new TV money by the end of a 4 year deal signed this year.

yes

But is 2 more years, even at that age, for $12M a year really that big of a risk or a bad thing compared to 2/40? I'm pretty sure I'd rather 4/64 than 2/40. Esp since you can backload further on 4 years. That's why I never understand these let's go shorter term on a way inflated AAV ideas. Wouldn't you rather have a shorter (or majorly front loaded) deal knowing all your young stars have enormous paydays coming in 3-5 years? Why would you backload a contract? It's almost like you never read these boards.

Rizzo won defensive player of the year, another award i did not know existed. Before anyone gets too confused, they have one for each position. wait he also won the platinum glove, which apparently is the best fielder in each league http://m.cubs.mlb.com/news/article/208675108/cubs-anthony-rizzo-went-defensive-poy-award/

Theo said the other day they were trying to make arrangements for before Obama leaves office ever the politician, he framed it as being because of the chicago ties.

FWIW, 2016 Jake is about a $25+M a year pitcher.
-
Not a complement for Almora since he's a righty, but I really want Gomez.

Wrigley Renovations and Related Wrigleyville Stuff
David replied to David's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Could be for the visitors clubhouse? Or is that not until next offseason. i believe it's going to be among the very last things done, but maybe i'm wrong. -
Are you saying it was just campaign bluster or that those aren't things to be concerned about? Bluster. Especially about Roe v. Wade. The problem is his VP is very much about all that insanity, and Trump having no experience or knowledge of politics at all is likely going to lean on that nut job for a lot.

lol get a load of this guy

Well, yeah, I'm not worked up about it at all. Just giving my opinion on it since that's what we're talking about here.

It was insensitive and absolutely unnecessary at best. Unnecessary? He's free to voice his feeling on the results of the election just as much as anyone else - be it on Twitter or anywhere else. I am free to voice my feelings on a lot of things. That doesn't mean it's necessary or, you know, a nice or good thing to do. And we're free to voice our feelings on him being an horsefeathers.
