    LMAO, how is that a real thing? No way... We need to investigate this and see if this really aired or not. That's horsefeathering pathetic if true. Not that specific game, but yeah, “Cardinals Rewind” appears to be a real thing. https://www.foxsports.com/midwest/story/fox-sports-midwest-expands-st-louis-cardinals-offseason-lineup-111417 A fond look back at narrowly avoiding a losing season!

    Rizzo, KB, Schwarber. And I accidentally voted 4, so we’re square.

    Angelos is now demanding 2 cost-controlled starting pitchers and a closer in exchange for Machado. [tweet] [/tweet]

    Rule of threes. [tweet]https://twitter.com/kazuto_yamazaki/status/942967983592181760[/tweet]

    Theo delivered a lengthy, detailed, compelling pitch? Sounds like he’s headed to Anaheim.

    What am I missing in Ozuna that has people so down on him? He’s a perfectly fine player, but he is more of a nice complimentary player than a middle of the order anchor they need/want and will be costly in terms of acquisition cost and is another example of them not getting a player they really want/need and have to settle for a player a tier or 2 below what they were going for. Ok, fair enough. I guess most consider him unlikely to reproduce last season’s output?

    This presumes that Gordon isn't traded prior to opening day.

    On the plus side, the pitching market should pick up now that this is settled.

    Well, that's too bad.

    I love that [insert player] "doesn't want to be the guy" is the refrain of the spurned cards fan. "Ooh, look at you, mister, 'I want to be a part of a competitive team.' A REAL ballplayer would jump at the opportunity to headline a roster full of trash." maybe we don't "play in a desirable city." maybe we don't "win a lot of games." maybe our fans are "incredibly racist." and i guess we don't "have a chance in the division for the next ten years." maybe we do "condone drinking and driving and white-collar crime." This is the horsefeathering best

    Yeah. This doesn’t look good. Oh well.

    Considering that 2 weeks ago I had zero hope of the Cubs signing him, I won’t be too disappointed if he goes elsewhere. I’ll be ecstatic if they do sign him, but I still feel it is a relative long shot.

    Which makes wanting Giancarlo strange because in about 4 years that contract is going to look just as bad as Pujols' contract. But those next 3-4 seasons are what the cards and giants are hoping to acquire. I don’t think it’s strange at all.

    i figured it might be, but i'm a robot so Oh horsefeathers, self-aware AI.
  18. MWV
    Given that the Cubs aren't getting him, I could definitely live with Stanton in San Francisco.
  19. MWV
    Only started 65. 34 complete games at 2B. LeMahieu and Gordon (other 2 finalists) had 135 and 138 CG, respectively. Laughable.

    Yelich or Ozuna would be pretty great. In any case, I'm pretty optimistic about what this team will look like next season. I'm confident Theo et al. will make some positive moves.
  21. MWV
    Well played.
  22. MWV
    And then someone found footage from the 50s of a team running it. How the hell do people have such memories Not playing football.
  23. MWV
    Has there been official indication that Dusty's going with Gio over Roark?
  24. MWV
    Cubs win this game so horsefeathering hard. Cubs win.

    The thread that implicated Soriano in every atrocity in human history (as well as killing the dinosaurs) was pretty great.
