  1. it'll be interesting to see what theo does in his last couple years here. probably nothing. he talked all that nonsense about this season being a "reckoning" and he cant even let go of russell. DO SOMETHING
  2. it's crazy that the bulls aren't even the slightest bit relevant in the free agent bonanza. nobody even takes this organization seriously anymore, it's nuts.
  3. honest question: are the cubs a well run organization? can we still say they are?
  4. i hope theo is embarrassed about all his "judge us by what we do next season" nonsense he spouted all offseason to make up for the team not improving. i have zero confidence in that guy at this point.
  5. your average baseball fan probably doesn't even know schwarber is still getting starts
  6. brantley is still on pace for nearly 5 wins
  7. i can already tell that risp nonsense will be a big talking point of the organization in the winter, instead of actually talking about why they have known bad players getting so much regular playing time
  8. the brewers sucking just means the cubs will get in the playoff with like 87 wins and then ricketts will tell the fans that it was another successful season
  9. it would be worse if you hired managers based on their thighs
  10. the shirt itself is called a tc tugger, not the knob. pathetic
  11. eloy has been butt again since that Wrigley dinger
  12. de haan is a lot better than the current blackhawk defensemen that you guys are calling middle of the pack. Do you guys remember the defense last year? I dont see how you can call adding any kind of solid defenseman redundant at this point. we need those too. obviously he doesn't fill the need for a top pairing guy, but hes a clear upgrade over almost everyone on the roster, and he doesn't effect the pursuit of an elite defenseman. he barely makes a dent in the huge amount of cap space we have going forward (even considering strome and debrincat getting paid next offseason), and we still have arguably the best group of defensive prospects in the nhl. we got a hjalmarasson type for scraps. I stand by my reaction.
  13. everybody outside of nsbb is calling this a huge steal for the hawks. The athletic sure didnt they're in the minority then
  14. something has to change. this horsefeathers is so stale
  15. everybody outside of nsbb is calling this a huge steal for the hawks.
  16. Eh. it's a something for nothing trade, so sure. He really shouldn't be higher than a third pairing guy on a team that has any playoff aspirations, and right now he's probably on the second pairing (with Jokiharju, behind Keith/Murphy), neither of which inspires a ton of confidence. Seabrook remains the $8m elephant in the room. There were rumors of them trying to trade down to 10th in the draft just to dump his contract. Sounds like this guy is fine, but at $4.5m for three more years at his age, he could be a cap liability in a hurry. 28-31 is not old, and 4.5 is super cheap for a top 4 d-man. he took less to stay in carolina when he signed that contract. and no player at 4.5 million is really a cap liability now. he'd be easily movable at pretty much any point.
  17. You people will miss kb's easy .900 ops when he signs somewhere else
  18. now it's really a kick in the nuts that his defense fell off a cliff. otherwise he'd actually be earning his salary this year
  19. everyone is calling this an awesome deal for the hawks (and people never say that about hawks moves)
  20. houston isn't going to stay stacked forever, especially pitching wise. they're going to lose one elite ace to age pretty soon, and then they'll either lose cole this offseason or have to pay him crazy money.
  21. bellinger and yelich have been bonds this season, and yet i look up the leaders in fwar and mike fuckin trout is still at the top
  22. i look forward to seeing theo's new millstone in wrigley
