  1. I'd love to trade down a bit and get someone from a group of Solomon Thomas, one of the safeties or Lattimore. Seems like they're all a bit below the third pick in terms of value.
  2. Andrew Miller hasn't been the same since David Ross got done with him in Game 7.
  3. That's a pretty serious injury... you want that at 36? That's basically going to be a red shirt for him, right? No way I'd use a 2nd round pick on a db with a torn Achilles I'd consider him in the third round (again, I like him more than mock drafts seem to), especially if this type of timeline is realistic: [tweet] [/tweet]
  4. Joc Pederson tripped and nearly fell on the Zobrist sac fly.
  5. Apparently Butler looked really good too. [tweet] [/tweet][tweet] [/tweet][tweet] [/tweet][tweet] [/tweet][tweet] [/tweet]
  6. Ugh. He's my favorite cornerback prospect in the draft, even more than the ones mocked in the top ten. I love those U-Dub corners (Trufant & Peters from the past and also Kevin King in this year's draft).
  7. Martellus Bennett signed with the Packers for 3 years/$21 million (all guaranteed). Riley Reiff to the Vikings for 5/$58.75 million with $26.3 guaranteed.
  8. Would be ideal if the Bears fall into Darnold or Rosen next year.
  9. [tweet] [/tweet] Lol, you're not serious with actual good football players like Bouye and Gilmore but have to blow everyone out of the water for Glennon.
  10. Yeah, he hit one off Kershaw in LA in 2015 too. And since we're talking best games attended, Game 5 of the NLCS is mine.
  11. Chris Crawford mock draft: http://m.herosports.com/mlb-draft/2017-mock-reds-tab-hunter-greene-oakland-kyle-wright-c6c6
  12. THAT is the part that I'm concerned about. Maddon isn't admitting that he completely horsefeathers the bed in games 6 and 7. You can't learn from mistakes if you aren't recognizing their existence. Yes. We won the World Series. We were and are all very very pumped. But this board never stuck me a completely results-oriented, ends justify the means, stick-with-what-got-you-there hug fest. Are we seriously going to just repeat "we won the World Series" when Maddon very nearly kept that from happening with gross over-management? Right or wrong, in Maddon's eyes, he had 3 relievers he could trust by the end of the World Series (Chapman, Montgomery, Edwards). He didn't even trust Strop to finish a big lead in Game 6.
  13. Like with any position outside C and maybe CF, Baez is the primary backup, it just might not be him playing the position. You can put Baez on the IF and move Bryant/Zobrist to LF and Schwarber to 1B. If not that, then Bryant would likely be at 1B. He started 6 of the 11 games at 1B Rizzo didn't start, and 2 of those other 5 were days Bryant also had off. Candelario would probably be an option too.
  14. [tweet]https://twitter.com/charlesrobinson/status/838588037915426817[/tweet] [tweet] [/tweet] If you're not bringing back Cutler, just re-sign Hoyer on the cheap rather than paying that much for Glennon. Yep: [tweet] [/tweet]
  15. Today was the 4 month anniversary of Game 7.
  16. Reading through Black's tweets, it looks like Carson Sands also had surgery. Mentioned on the previous page. It's a bone spur in his elbow, do not as bad as TJS.
  17. Corey Black had surgery. [tweet] [/tweet]
  18. I'll help with the Bears too. I'll take the 49ers.
  19. Eric Berry re-signs with the Chiefs. Melvin Ingram, Chandler Jones, Kawann Short and Trumaine Johnson have all been franchise tagged. Not sure where the Bears are going to spend money but it seems like Alshon Jeffery would be a better usage of their immense cap space than most of the remaining options.
  20. Eloy! [tweet] [/tweet] [tweet] [/tweet]
  21. [tweet] [/tweet] [tweet] [/tweet]
  22. Today's game is on MLB Network at 7 CT. Also MLBTV has the Cleveland broadcast.
  23. javy basically was the giants series http://i.imgur.com/bKg82QK.jpg My Giants fan coworker who sits next to me hates Javy (and he talked a lot of horsefeathers in Game 3 and early in Game 4). So, naturally, I have a picture of Javy's bat drop from Game 1 on my desk aimed perfectly at his desk.
