  1. The first time I read the headline I missed the J and thought it meant Addison. I was very confused.
  2. No, most likely as simple as the Cubs are asking for too much in return and nobody wants to pay it.
  3. And a Sega Nomad which was utterly useless.
  4. Atari -> NES -> Sega Genesis -> N64 -> Gamecube -> PS2-> X Box 360 NES still the favorite and I miss it. :(
  5. Not that I know anything about anything, but Soler always seems too low on these lists to me. I have just seen clips and all but the 65 power seems low too.
  6. Wow, look how off his top 20 was lol He's just trying to figure out who those stars are.
  7. How good/bad is 4.16? I remember reading his speed was neither a plus or minus so kind of middle of the pack?
  8. Frank Viola Jr! The RBI Baseball nerd in me is happy.
  9. Also, that more or less confirms that Theo does all the real work and Hoyer just fetches coffee or something. He is so full of [expletive], talk about trying to save face on local radio with an organization apologist. I am sure Theo did one of the hold the phone a foot away from his ear deals while Cashman talked, told him they would think it over and never returned the call.
  10. Does Rizzo have an all star appearance escalator clause in his contract? #poortomrickets
  11. http://www.baseballamerica.com/international/team-team-international-signings-tracker/ Pretty convenient little site.
  12. I wonder if long term the fact that they were trading Samardzija to Oakland, where he won't sign a long term deal and will allow the Cubs a chance to resign him in a year and a half, played into them pulling the trigger on the trade. It would kind of be the best of both worlds if they were able to get Russell and then resign Jeff providing he stays healthy and continues to pitch the way he has this year.
  13. How does McKinney rank in terms of the Cubs top prospects? Top 10?
  14. This is the #2 guy to watch in Boise right now imo. Weird that one of Schwarber or Baez is behind Conway. That Schwarber is a bum.
  15. What are Stinnett's options as a college senior other than taking a low contract? Does he have some sort of other out to increase his leverage in negotiations?
  16. Let me rephrase the question, has anyone seen any scouting reports about the reasons for Almora's struggles so far this season and if they are something he can overcome to continue on in his progression.
  17. He might just suck Considering his draft position and how well he performed last year it is far too early to go that far without a strong scouting reporting saying he is overmatched. Granted, that certainly is a possibility but I haven't seen anything saying he is in over his head with no chance of recovering in the long term.
  18. Any word what Almora's issues have been? Is it too early to worry about his seeming lack of adjustment so far? Just a case of a high school guy hitting a level where his natural talent doesn't allow him to easily acclimate?
  19. At least he can't be out for the season with a torn up shoulder in that position.
