  1. None at all. Just a dumb reporter with nothing better to talk about attempting to connect dots.
  2. in assisting Atlantic League umpires call balls and strikes
  3. yellon got the aerial photo dude to take a ton of pictures of the park https://www.bleedcubbieblue.com/2019/3/8/18255685/wrigley-field-construction-update-march-6-exclusive-aerial-photos#0

  6. they are both fixed they will never walk anybody again
  7. Chatwood and Maples = fixed
  8. while i'm totally fine with trading him, if that's all you get for him (and at his salary) i'd rather just keep him around for, at the very least, rotational depth.
  9. no fuckin way
  10. Cubs are kicking around the idea of having alternate broadcasts on the new network... i.e. maybe a sports betting oriented one, or an advanced stats oriented one. Also will be debuting a new YouTube channel on Monday which will offer a preview of the sort of in house programming that will be on the network. They anticipate carriage in some areas that CSN wasn't being carried that would have an "appetite" for the Cubs but wouldn't for the White Sox, or a Bulls team that might be blacked out in a given market, or what have you.
  11. i believe this was the exact moment that i flipped on noah
  12. True, but there are several in the league, and calling that play a "14/10" is ridiculously hyperbolic that shot is extremely hard to make
  13. 7 footers who can handle the ball like that and pull off that off balance shot are not a dime a dozen like have you guys seriously not ever seen how goofy most 7 footers look even attempting to dribble? most consider it a win if they don't dribble it off their foot every other time

  16. what other message board are you on? i know the cubs twitter idiots probably are, but you don't go on twitter so
  17. i don't think not giving maximum effort has ever been a problem for willy
  18. turk wendell once tossed me some gum. it was bazooka, not big league chew.
  19. no offense but that sentence hurts to read
  20. if by superstar you mean the type of player that causes you to win championships...the type there are only a couple of, literally 2 or 3, well yeah...but getting one of those guys is pie in the sky and nothing but luck. i don't think you should or can set out to get that in the vast majority of circumstances...you just hope it falls into your lap. if that's not what you mean, i think lauri has that level of ability. if you don't want to call it a superstar, then whatever a notch below that is... perennial all star or something. he's going to be really damn good.
  21. we'll pick him for the warriors
  22. That's definitely part of the problem, but yeah, it shouldn't take much for them to be in playoff contention next year. the problem is, what exactly does playing for the 8 seed with Miami, Detroit, Charlotte, Orlando, etc. really accomplish? you're still nowhere near actually being competitive enough to compete with actual teams, and you're just going to be hurting your chances by picking in the teens instead of potentially a top 5 pick. if they end up getting a non-Zion/Morant/Barrett guy this year, the two tank years would have resulted in Wendell Carter and someone like Cam Reddish. to me, that doesn't exactly paint these last couple of years as a success. are we saying having lauri and lavine aren't also a result of them taking that path (even if you don't want to include porter)? they're going to do better than competing for an 8th seed next year if they're healthy. lauri is horsefeathering good and young. same with lavine.
  23. I thought that dude was still around, but I guess not. Also: guess you should have listened to him. Yes, I really should have gone to the police with this airtight tip from an internet stranger. pretty sure that's not what he meant
  24. Hollandsworth was stealing time from Jason Dubois dammit i just googled him to find out what ever happened to him and i came across the original jon leicester who i used to confuse with jon lester when jon lester first came up.
