  1. if jed hoyer said the truth out loud
  2. Back of the napkin you'd probably say something like 83. Coming into the offseason they were at 74 https://blogs.fangraphs.com/the-absurdly-preliminary-2023-zips-projected-standings/ They've added this offseason 13ish WAR. That's not going to equate to 13 wins though because it was spread so much through the roster, rather than being concentrated in a few spots. So I think depending on how you evaluate some of the particulars you'd probably say they added 7-10 wins. I think you have to also consider that they were better in the last half than the first half, making that 74 perhaps not the true baseline. that 74 number doesn't come from last year's win total, it's a new projection. it just happened to be the same as last year's win total
  3. they aren't going to win and they aren't going to blow it up. my interest is at an all time low
  4. can we please get 1 good game?
  5. today i learned that mike tirico is/was a total creepazoid
  6. vucevic is having a great year, i'll admit it
  7. tortorella is such a dumb prick
  8. they actually tried for a few weeks after the media was trashing them, but they seem to have packed it in again. losses are for the greater good
  9. all i know is that trading fields makes this team way less fun
  10. did zach forget the score?
  11. one of the coolest bears moments of my life didn't even happen during a bears game
  12. indy went for it on 4th and goal from the 3 and got stopped
  13. dropped 49 last night. still only 25. now averaging 24.5 ppg on 53/42/88 shooting i'm not going to pretend i wanted to keep him, but damn, we missed out I'm just going to assume it's because he's the only player on that Utah team. I refuse to believe he's elite after 7 years in the league. that helps the volume, but it's hard to argue with 53/42/88. he'll regress to some degree but he's insane right now
  14. dropped 49 last night. still only 25. now averaging 24.5 ppg on 53/42/88 shooting i'm not going to pretend i wanted to keep him, but damn, we missed out
  15. still a long way to go, but things are looking up
  16. jed & co are relieved that they won't have to pretend to be interested in signing him. 2-3 win defensive players or bust
  17. do the doctors know by now whether or not there is brain damage from lack of oxygen?
  18. lauri is having an unbelievable year
  19. bedard is 17, even if they get him it's going to be years before they have a chance
  20. bedard is a child, even if they get him it's going to be years before they have a chance
  21. but there's like a 50 percent chance the nhl rigs it for chicago (not really being serious) this would be the only thing that could get me interested in the blackhawks any time soon
  22. the lottery is going to be so nerve-racking
  23. is the lack of news bad?
