  1. Yeah letting Jaylon walk would be beyond idiotic. Spotrac projects a modest contract anyway. Get it done.
  2. Justin's lack of pre-snap anything has actually been a criticism I held in my back pocket simply because we've only had like 2 QBs who could orchestrate an offense like that in the last 20 years and I'm just so used to not seeing it. The things that Fields doesn't do are really apalling.
  3. I think the power is there. It's probably the intent that needs to develop. He hits the ball hard but he's definitely not trying to launch everything yet.
  4. They NTd him because he was terrible in 2020 and a player who was equally terrible in 2020 but could still fake it in the OF was available for like a million less. He hit 47 HR this year and didn't even slug 500; didn't even really come close. He walked 40 more times this year than the career-high he set last year, which is insane to think about for any 30+ year-old player not named Barry Bonds. He is probably going to pass Manny after Altuve does, and good for him. I still enjoy watching a Schwarbomb; I don't believe they made a massive mistake letting him go.
  5. I'm glad the Cardinals gave Garcia and Arozorena away
  6. It's still bewildering to me how a player with a great jump shot can't hit a lick of 3s in this day and age. Sure looks like Jerry doesn't give a horsefeathers if his team can compete for rings with the juggernauts that are in the league. Good camaraderie FTW lol
  7. Triantos HR is here
  8. Love seeing a guy respond to an 0-fer like that
  9. Just a devastating blow from Altuve. Rangers are gonna be having nightmares for weeks. I don't think you recuperate from that.
  10. Take it back 20 more years and all you add is the Jims and Cade McNown. I feel like this a bad approach for a team that has basically had one franchise QB in their entire history.
  11. The Cubs made a HUGE mistake not getting Betts. Worse than Harper.
  12. You really just described a Fields start
  13. Oddly, I kind of liked the different dynamic that Castellanos offered our offense, being a free-swinger who actually didn't strike out a million times, in contrast to the patient-too-the-point-of-passivity hitters we had surrounding him and Baez. But he's a known butcher in the field and has never hit so much to hide that, as Schwarber has at times. It's too bad that Schwarber tanked so hard in the Covid year, but at the end of the day, at his very best he's never posted a 3 war season.
  14. It's not the money, it's the entitlement. I think it sets an awful precedent and man are you gonna have a lot of egg on your face if he busts. Trevor Lawrence looks like just a good QB, Andrew Luck was never the best QB in his league, Vick was a more hyped athletic specimen, etc. There's been plenty of these generational QBs that just turn out to be OK, but not otherworldly - and that's fine - I mean, they are/were still good - but to make any player, before they've even taken a snap in the league, even the smallest minority owner, is just an asinine thought to me. I'm sure some teammates would take umbrage as well, although that is down the list of issues I would care about.
  15. If it's true I hope he goes to the USFL
  16. That was my biggest issue with Cutler. He rarely climbed the pocket or stepped into his throws.
  17. That was Cutler like 80% of the time.
  18. It happens sometimes, sure, but when they're depleted like that, it is very unlikely to happen.
  19. Whichever team has the worst QB + targets situation. Pats, Broncos, Giants I see no shot of any of those teams not having top 10 picks in the 25 draft. The Pats roster is worse than the Bears. They and the Giants have scored 72 and 71 points respectively. The Giants have already been outscored by 96 points.
  20. Alcantara is now 243/341/541
  21. That looks like a can of corn. Honestly thought he might have hit a GW SF. Better video of Alcantara walkoff Alcantara had a day in the field
  22. Gallen's throwing meatballs. His stuff looks lifeless. Schwarber and Harper solo shots already in the 1st.
  23. His playoff numbers are ludicrous
  24. About those Triantos triples - were any of them near-homers blasted to the wall?
  25. Ng is out as Marlins GM. She delcined her option after Miami seemingly begrudgingly picked it up.
