    I live in central Illinois, nothing Milwaukee ever does touches my disdain for the Cardinals and all the effing Cardinal/Packers fans that live around here
  2. I owned a Suzuki
    I already have a $20 wager that he will hit 25 HRs next season if he is not a White Sox.
  3. I owned a Suzuki
    I have no data to back this up...just my observation. Ballesteros looks quite a bit more beefy than Kirk
  4. I owned a Suzuki
    Is Moises Ballesteros body type a concern? Can he get work next year as a 3rd catcher? When Amaya inevitably gets hurt can take some turns catching?

    I am not a statistician or English major. I always think the word rating implies a certain level of subjectivity. When you rate something, even if you use stats to support your rating, your actual rating is still an opinion.

    In his rookie year he was about middle of the league in 3rd base production. I think people who want someone else are going to be disappointed. I think he is already penciled in at 3rd for next season.

    Cignetti's bank acct had a good day yesterday. A very big programs job came open the same day Indiana solidified themselves as a national contender.
  8. I owned a Suzuki
    I would kick in $20 for MSU to hire Franklin. I know PSU fans are going to clamor for Cignati, but they are going to settle for Manny Diaz or something like that.
  9. I owned a Suzuki
    Why not? Edit, I think they would be just as likely to resign him as the Cubs would if they traded for him
  10. I owned a Suzuki
    But we cant pencil Shaw in at 3rd?
  11. I owned a Suzuki
    Ive taken my wife to several Phillies games in Milwaukee and the fans are great.
  12. I owned a Suzuki
    Unfortunately I think the Cubs are going to be one of the 1st teams without a chair
  13. I owned a Suzuki
    Yeah, even Belli. They won't replaces Schwarbers pop, but the run prevention over Castellanos would be significant. Bader/Marsh platoon in CF and the rookie in left. If Wheeler comes back its a rotation of Sanchez, Wheeler, Nola, Luzardo and Walker? Thats going to be an easy playoff team. If they do resign Schwarber, I think they will need to find a RH bat to play right. They cannot send Castellanos out there another year
  14. I owned a Suzuki
    I think the Yankees will do what it takes to keep him. But I think he will have a strong market. Hits LHers real well, plays solid defense. Good ballplayer. I think if the Tucker money gets too high, several teams could pivot to Belli
  15. I owned a Suzuki
    My wife is a Phillies fan, so I get to watch plenty of them. I actually think they would be better served letting Schwarber go and putting those resources into a power hitting corner OFer who can at least play average defense. Castellanos can be a DH. And yeah if the can get better defense at SS and move Turner to 3rd. I know Bohm is a well loved teammate, but not enough power to justify that defense. They probably have to resign Realmutto. Also, need a backup catcher badly
  16. I owned a Suzuki
    Its going to be
  17. I owned a Suzuki
    Managerial decisions are overrated/ players executing is underrated come playoff time. Counsell like any player who is a FA is paid really well based on past performance. I also think Hoyer really wanted Counsell not because of who he is going to pick to start game 4(I bet Hoyer is probably part of that decision) but his ability/patience in developing young players. Plus helping create a winning environment
  18. I owned a Suzuki
    Is that similar to the Ohtani Rule
  19. I owned a Suzuki
    I think Chuck Norris has posted more words in his first thread than I have in 20 plus yrs
  20. I owned a Suzuki
    Cubs will not advance in this series unless Boyd gives them 1 okay start. Unless you are hoping on Soroka, Civale orBrown
  21. I owned a Suzuki
    Civale
  22. I owned a Suzuki
    As someone who has lived in the Champaign area for a lot of years, but am not an Illinois fan. I just want to say, be okay with being good most of the time and great every now and then. Lou Tepper was so under appreciated. Illinois is probably never going to be OSU. But they can be Iowa or what Wisconsin was for several decades
  23. I owned a Suzuki
    I think Beilema has a way with 3 star players. He was never a great recruiter at Wisconsin either. Not everyone gets good results out of 5 stars
  24. I owned a Suzuki
    I would live Peralta pitching tomorrow. He is pitching 1 of these games and I prefer it be tomorrow.
  25. I owned a Suzuki
    Put me down for not taking Taillon out....in the after the fact chest thumping contest
