why are they upset with him?
-
stupid question, but does UZR factor in an outfielders arm?
-
I'm not convinced that after a string of decidedly average-mediocre seasons Hawkins has regained his dominance at age 36. I'm not high on Grabow at all, but I don't think the Hawkins signing is any better than his. it isn't, really.

Cubs projected win total in 2010 just went up by 2. And in 2011. 2yr/7.5 million. what's better than overpaying for one pitcher? overpaying for 2 pitchers!

Cubs projected win total in 2010 just went up by 2. hawkins has been pretty badass over the past 85 or so innings.

it's pretty funny that you assume you were right about these guys already i always knew that ian kennedy guy was a buster. i mean, what 23 year old gets lit up in the al east? only a buster
-
Just that gut feeling. I had the same feeling when everyone was hyping samardijza, i felt he wasn't that good of a prospect and a reliever at best which i still feel. I felt that way about Hughes, Kennedy, Bucholz, etc. I think if you watch baseball, normally you can see someone and just know they'll be something good. Its just my own opinion, not saying its right. Before you applaud yourself too hard, there was never a time when everyone was hyping Samardzija. And your ability to judge a player based on how he carries himself is dubious at best. and samardzija's minor league numbers weren't good anyways

signing pineiro would be classic
-
who needs numbers when you can just look at how a guy carries himself?

what the [expletive] does this even mean? and it was alone as a paragraph Jeter's ambassadorship is worth about 15 wins. Didn't you know that? And him saying "Good job tonight, guys" adds another 10-12. i understood the sucking off of jeter, i just don't understand why granderson would come in and be the "leader and ambassador" of the team.
-
guh... what? we've known that all along. they don't really know what they're going to have to work with and what they might need until they work this mess out
-
this trade isn't going down by the end of the winter meetings
-
ok, now how many can you name who were making as much as sosa? a players trade value isn't determined on performance alone. in sosa's case, the main factor was his ridiculous salary. Salary is meaningless when the trading team is the one paying it. the orioles still paid plenty

i love it

guys i read on wikipedia that brad pitt has 2 penises does anybody know if that's true or not

I really hope the entire Cubs brass isn't obsessing with moving Bradley as much as Bruce (and others) are making it seem. This has Sammy Sosa written all over it, to a lesser degree. Except Sammy had little to no value. I don't think you can say that. His numbers match up pretty well with Mike Cameron's 2009 season, and the Cubs are VERY interested in him. except cameron plays center (and plays it well) while sosa played a corner outfield (and played it poorly) most of cameron's value comes from his position and his defense

Except Sammy had little to no value. bradley doesn't have any trade value right now either, just for different reasons.
-
it's pretty much a gaurantee that both of those things won't happen. the cubs are either going to have to eat a huge chunk of his contract, or they're going to be taking back a bad contract.
-
Have there been any rumors about Baltimore? It wouldn't surprise me to see a crap team get Bradley, since whoever gets him is going to end up getting a pretty good deal. The off the field stuff probably wouldn't be a big deal to a team like that. They're going to suck anyways, so who cares if he's a "distraction" or whatever nonsense mose of these GMs are afraid of. Also, nobody goes to Orioles games, which seems like a perfect fit for Milton. Nobody is going to hound him like he was in Chicago because nobody really cares. Seems like it would be a good idea for a crap team to jump on Bradley knowing they're going to get him for dirt cheap, then hope he has a good year and flip him at the deadline or next offseason.

anybody else hear the quote from VDN about how the nets are just now getting healthy and theyre going to start winning a bunch of games? GTFO you goon
