  1. but we have another day off monday. why cant we just skip him completely. AZ rakes against LHP so they wanted a righty and Chatwood is the only option. seems desperate and dumb
  2. Because LA vs LHP or AZ vs RHP but we have another day off monday. why cant we just skip him completely.
  3. why is it chatwood and not Quintana tomorrow?
  4. there was no reason to trade them then. especially russell. saying they "should" have traded them in hindsight is pointless, especially since there was probably more reason to trade baez then, which would have been a huge mistake. Russell had a #1 prospect attached to his name and would most likely bring more in return. To me Baez had a higher ceiling than Russell, even at that time. russell would have brought more in return because he had more value at that time. i don't think it was even a question then. the fact that you may have thought baez was worth more doesn't change the fact that the baseball world didn't. but the point is that there was no reason to trade russell after 2016. they were never going to have 100% of these young hitting prospects pan out. they had to let the stars prove themselves and then try to get value for the busts while they still could. trading 22 year old russell after his 4-win 2016 made no sense. he looked like a young cheap star, and the plan of competing for the better part of a decade revolved around getting those.
  5. Schwarber & Russell should have been traded after the WS. there was no reason to trade them then. especially russell. saying they "should" have traded them in hindsight is pointless, especially since there was probably more reason to trade baez then, which would have been a huge mistake.
  6. i swear starlin does this horsefeathers on purpose against us sometimes
  7. if hamels has a good year, what kind of deal could he look for this offseason? would we have interest?
  8. that's exactly what my outfielders look like in diamond dynasty when i play real people online
  9. this didnt contradict anything we said though
  10. javy blew the easiest double play turn imaginable
  11. first edgy post in nsbb history i think
  12. i bet he wishes he had a wife to share this with and then cheat on
  13. the nhl playoffs are great. an upset like this can happen at any time, but it doesn't feel as stupid and luck-dependent as it does when it happens in baseball.
  14. this makes no sense
  15. him rotting away in left field for years really.symbolizes the post ws cubs. everything just slowly becomes worse and nothing really ever changes, because hoping bad players become good is most of theo's plan at this point.
  16. anyone theo gives significant money to becomes a black hole
  17. i was the one who pointed out that it was only 2 weeks. i'm just saying he was worth negative war going into this game, so i'm not going to fawn over him finally have a good game.
  18. he has a babip fueled .828 ops with terrible defense. we might regret it but he hasn't been very inspiring so far. not that 2 weeks means anything anyways
