  1. when do they unveil what the rings will look like? is it not until they're handed out on opening day? hopefully they'll rival the 2012-2013 hawks rings http://1.cdn.nhle.com/blackhawks/images/upload/gallery/2013/09/ring-5210041258_std.jpg
  2. even when he was in god mode i don't remember anyone here wanting to talk extension at all
  3. i'm starting to wonder where the starting pitching is going to come from if he's not on the team after next season. it feels like he's going to end up being a good option.
  4. royals fans seem to hate the trade
  5. If Davis is considered truly healthy, he'll command more than Soler. Soler just doesn't have much value. If Davis is sold off as a risk, Soler is enough. I wouldn't be surprised if Soler has more value than many think. Yes, he has only produced 1.5 fWAR, but he has only accrued just over a season's worth of PA. He has a ton of potential,and he has performed well in the postseason. He has been inconsistent in the regular season, but has had poor luck with regard to the timing of his injuries. No, the injuries are not a selling point, but I think the case could be made that Jorge has been the victim of some bad luck. Plus he's still hugely talented. I don't think that Jorge has a future with the Cubs, but I think he would be better used as an add-on piece in a larger deal. My gut feeling here is that Jorge is just as likely to break out a bit next year as Davis is to make through the season without his elbow exploding. i take 'at bet. damn good bet
  6. For a year and a half worth of closers the Cubs have given up Gleyber and Soler. If only they'd have packaged them together at one point you'd think they could have landed a closer with a little bit of team control. I look forward to giving up Eloy for a season of whoever in 2018. me too, it will probably be for someone awesome and we'll probably win a bunch of stuff
  7. dees guys suck
  8. one of them might get injured
  9. i wouldn't trade soler for him but i just don't think i could possibly be bothered by it right now either
  10. don't do it, dex
  11. What organization currently has 4 "can't miss" prospects based on JR's definition of one? unless there's more to the quote, it didn't sound like he was asking for 4. he was just saying 1 in 4 lives up to the hype... i think
  12. he's kind of right though
  13. bob nightengale's twitter picture always makes me imagine him as that fake yo-yo guy who ended up being on Better Call Saul
  14. They've got about $30 mil to play with, give or take, after arbitration if they want to match last year's opening day salary total. I just didn't expect 25% of it to go to a platoon outfielder for Almora. i thought it was an extremely predictable move
  15. i even love sealboy now. he always looked so into the games when they showed the bench during the playoffs.
  16. hossa is [expletive] amazing. that game was awesome.
  17. scherzer looks like a backwoods bradley cooper
  18. theo is going to trade him and then get archer.
  19. man, regular season highlights just don't do it for me anymore
  20. i want to trade him
  21. texts from bonds AND mj after the game? that's 50% of the major GOATs
  22. jay cutler is a dumb douche
  23. when are we getting archer?
