good call This time last year I would've put higher odds on ARCubsfan making that post -
The problem is I easily start rooting for crazy things. Like last September I wanted to catch the Cardinals. This year I want to be ten games ahead in the division by June and win it in late August and win 120 games. Catching STL was totally not crazy last year. If not for the stupid way we lost one of those September games (I think it was the day before all the beanball crap happened), I think we would have. Well we had to win at like a 130 win pace in the last two months for it to even be possible and we still finished third. Honestly, I think this year's goals are more realistic.

I seriously don't care at all. We are going to lose 2 games in a row some times. Maybe even 3 or 4. We will probably have a stretch where we win 3 of 10 games. This team has already proven they are [expletive] awesome and baseball has already proven to me that all teams slump during a season The problem is I easily start rooting for crazy things. Like last September I wanted to catch the Cardinals. This year I want to be ten games ahead in the division by June and win it in late August and win 120 games.

It's so weird. I want to get upset but I can't because we've basically already won the division. It's mid may. This is really weird.

Thank God. Is this a new leaf for you
-
Well we're losing to the Brewers and will now have double digit losses like a trash mortal team, so that sucks
-
Ryan braun should get into a Cardinals car pool
-
This should be good. Which quote would that be? Try not to suck obv
-
I was gonna ask if that was the same goofy band at least
-
I want us to win 30 before we lose 10 so bad
-
i know it's a joke (and maybe it *is* the joke), but theo didn't get to draft until 3 picks later

don't mind if i do

TIL ding dong johnson and smack don't know the difference between asterisks and quotes that or they just can't see that well I know the difference. it doesn't make any sense for there to be any sort of emphasis on the word it makes sense just fine. it's a goofy fun fact (i'm not big on fun facts, but some people are) and the fact that it was his brother is what makes it "fun" (slightly) i don't think it really needed emphasis but i think it's probably weirder to be taken aback or bothered by it being emphasized enough to point it out.

oh my god. there are multiple people in the psd thread for this series claiming that the cubs play down to bad teams and need to stop doing so. they one of them brought up their 11-6 record vs bad teams (you know, a 104 win pace) as evidence of this. you know, the same team people argued was just pounding bad teams prior to facing the pirates and nationals...then they go 7-0 in those games and i guess they play down to bad teams. what the horsefeathering horsefeathers?

I don't really call any individual untouchable. It's the big packages of guys who I think you can already count on to be productive (or more) big leaguers that I'd be against because I think this team has so much elite talent that good depth is actually more valuable to us than top end talent at this point (so to speak), since winning 110 games doesn't get us any further than winning 105. we have so much elite talent spread out around the field that i think we're better off having a few above average players we can plug in to fill in for any one or two big injuries. but there's not a single player i'd call untouchable in a trade for trout.
-
Curious, would you be willing to do Russell, Schwarber, Happ, Torres and Contreras for him and his salary or too much? The only reason I say no to that particular package (and it's mainly Russell, Schwarber, and Contreras that I'm talking about here) is because of the whole diminishing returns thing. We're beyond good enough, so I think spreading out that many guys who can give that much value as individuals and the depth that provides (primarily in insurance against injury) is a better fit for a team that is already set up to be this good.

wasn't he traded for AJ like 8 million years ago?

So that guy on reddit was right
