  1. Yeah, you shouldn't do that
  2. I don't think there's ever been a reason to have Rizzo in Iowa City. You could say that about anyone. Annnnnd [expletive] off.
  3. Too much garbage in WAR. You trust the defensive metrics for catchers and 1Bs? I sure don't. LaHair will out-OPS Soto. The defense-challenged 1B will out-OPS the defensively solid catcher? GET OUTTA TOWN.
  4. nobody likes you. Gee Kap, I sure didn't see this coming. it takes a big man to mock another man's charitable cause. And a small one to cruise a funeral looking for work. Quoted because I can't believe this guy is still allowed to post here.
  5. Crazy to say that's not Prior-at-his-best good. Crazy to say that's not Strasburg-at-his-best good. I expected this post...It's true...I'm excited to see if he'll ever match '03 Prior in full season dominance. Prior 2003 is seriously underrated... I seriously don't know how freakin' Gagne won the CY over Prior/Schmidt that year... Don't get me wrong. Gagne was unreal that year and a closer can win a CY if there wasn't any SP who put up great #s, but both Prior/Schmidt put up great #s... Plus Prior was only 22 on top of that... *sigh* "What could've been...." I think wins (18) basically took Prior out of consideration back then. Didn't Wood finish with more votes than him?
  6. Can I get a "small sample size" up in here?
  7. I'm annoyed that the Cubs haven't signed good players to this point and want them to spend in coming seasons. And yet, I wouldn't sign Greinke.* *For the deal I expect he'll receive. +1 The guy they SHOULD be going after is one, Cole Hamels. I hear he's got some talent. I think he's capable of and ready to lead a staff. Greinke seems to be a favorite here. My guess has been because he's the one everyone's seen the most. He's a few years removed from being crazy, but does crazy just leave? Would he really want to come to one of the three actual cities in this country with all of his social anxiety problems? Doesn't seem to be the case.
  8. So far, so good. 16th trip on the DL. Good example for the younger players. Sure hope this doesn't affect his bowling night. lolol holy [expletive]
  9. Joke, right? Why would that be a joke? It's literally 5 posts back
  10. 1) By all accounts, he's an [expletive] 2) By all accounts, he hates the Cubs He's not an [expletive]. ETA: No more so than your average pro athlete. I remember him giving several pretty rude interviews. I think his feelings about the Dusty and the Cubs were pretty well-documented. That said, he probably shouldn't have anything against the current version of the Cubs if he is a reasonable person.
  11. 1) By all accounts, he's an [expletive] 2) By all accounts, he hates the Cubs
  12. Leave the protected landmarks, do NOT mess with the structure of the upper deck and do whatever the hell else you want with the rest of the park.
  13. Screw that. Base Wars was where it was at. If we got rid of human umpires then we wouldn't have Steve McMichael getting ejected during the 7th inning stretch. OK, there it is.
  14. I'm in the "let the humans do it" camp, but the arguments in favor have been so monstrously bad, I honestly don't know why.
  15. Because if he has the ability to hit well enough to be a starter, and he costs next to nothing, he holds more value as a trade chip than a bench player. Why would you put a guy on the bench who can hit for a reasonable average and mash 30 homers a year if given full playing time. It's a waste of resources. if you have that guy and he's NOT in your plans, then he likely is a viable option for someone else. You find out who that is and you milk LaHair for all he's worth. You ruin his value by benching him. Or maybe he won't hit well enough to be a starter. Oh Jesus Christ
  16. He gives off the incoherence of Ronnie without the charm. Why was he doing PBP at all?
  17. Can we sticky the answer to this question in EVERY sub-forum, please?
