    Don't forget Correa relative to Buxton. *ducks*
  2. Hairyducked Idiot
    I'm not saying they should abandon it, but eventually the market will catch on to the inefficiency that is giving them guys like Hammel and Feldman and Maholm. You can't count on it forever.
  3. Hairyducked Idiot
    High-profile pitchers age 29+ have historically not been great value.
  4. Hairyducked Idiot
    That is awesome.
  5. Hairyducked Idiot
    It'll be nice that Belgium already beat Mexico and thus won't be pressing to win today as much.
  6. Hairyducked Idiot
    The prize is we owe you 30 pushups, isn't it?

    Alcantara's looking more and more like he could be another one. Meh. I just can't pencil him for more than averageness in his first full year.

    My enthusiasm for 2015 is rising. I said earlier in the year we were four players short assuming a Samardzija trade. Arrieta and Bryant could be half that.
  9. Hairyducked Idiot
    How do you not know this one?
  10. Hairyducked Idiot
    Recipe for 2015: 1) Arrieta never gets hurt like every other good Cubs pitcher in history 2) Keep Samardzija 3) Bryant is good at baseball 4) Add one decent outfielder in the offseason. The resulting team is easily over .500 and in the hunt at worst all year.

    If I were a contending team I would pay so much more for Arrieta than Samardzija.
  13. Hairyducked Idiot
    He's gonna blow out his arm in the next year regardless. Let's go for tonight.
  14. Hairyducked Idiot
    FIP half a run better than Tanaka
  15. Hairyducked Idiot
    So he wasn't tipping his pitches then? OK, yeah, that doesn't make sense now that you mention it.
  16. Hairyducked Idiot
    what are you talking about, good pitchers can tell guys what's coming and they'll still be good If they significantly outclass the level, sure. But nobody outclasses MLB to that degree.
  17. Hairyducked Idiot
    Seriously it was 2013 and you can still find pitchers for basically free who put up 2.04 FIP just because you noticed they were tipping their pitches and nobody else did.
  18. Hairyducked Idiot
    Nope. Learning curve to MLB is steep as heck and they are too far back.
  19. Hairyducked Idiot
    They're still living off the sustained success that Hoyer brought them.
  20. Hairyducked Idiot
    Nigeria look perfectly capable of winning this game.
  21. Hairyducked Idiot
    Letting one of them go? No way. Trade, maybe in the most extreme of circumstances. That's what I meant, but yeah.
  22. Hairyducked Idiot
    Do you even consider the possibility of letting one of them go if the cap hit is too high? In the abstract I want to at least consider it, but I just can't accept the idea of losing either.
  23. Hairyducked Idiot
    Did he pull his hamstring jogging to first?
  24. Hairyducked Idiot
    a) That was awesome. b) Whatever intern labeled it a "world class golazo" can take a long walk off a short pier.
  25. Hairyducked Idiot
    Convert him to catcher.
