  1. Why wouldn't it? On replay, it totally will unless the official hallucinates some ball movement. How on earth did he keep the ball that still in his hands?
  2. Another play that would be so much more awesome if you didn't know that replay was coming. Still pretty awesome though. Holy balls, ejection!
  3. Well, we're basically down to the guys who would be playing in the second half of preseason games. So yeah.
  4. Cafardo feels like a mouthpiece for the Cubs' front office to me. So I assume that means they want to put out there that they are still willing to extend him. Or maybe I'm reading too much into things.
  5. Guys you could probably justify DFA'ing right now if you needed roster space: Bard, Beeler, Cabrera, Lim, Raley, Gamel, Murphy, Vitters, Watkins, Bogusevic, Jackson Guys who are one bad season away from joining that category: Rusin, Barney, Olt, Szczur We're nowhere near running out of room on the 40-man if we really need it.
  6. Meh, second half of back-to-back at end of long road trip.
  7. It's been every bit as dominating as the score makes it sound.
  8. I will *never* get tired of seeing goals scored on Mike Smith.
  9. No. 2 on my list to Boise State's first big bowl game. But lolololololololol that was awesome
  10. Holy balls this game is good. Wouldn't mind seeing a replay to see if he was actually behind line.
  11. I kind of don't want to tender Murphy. You got your free money, now walk away while you are ahead.
  12. Seems like we might be getting a Darwin Barney one-year contract before Monday's deadline.
  13. http://www.beyondtheboxscore.com/2013/11/27/5144842/minor-league-prospects-walk-rates-strikeout-rates-success I refuse to accept what the stats are telling me about Javy Baez.
  14. 2013 total bWAR from players 25 and under, NL Central Reds 13.3 Cardinals 11.0 Pirates 7.2 Brewers 6.3 Cubs 2.1
  15. Awesome stuff. I still think that if you give Rusin the benefit of the stuff-boost that most pitchers get from going to the pen, he basically just becomes a cheaper version of Russell. Maybe even better. And I wonder if Rosscup might not be better than both of them. If anyone wanted to give us anything of comparable value for Russell, I think I'd take it at this point. I'm going to be so annoyed if all this doesn't turn into a decent pen for 2014. There's just so much interesting there that wasn't there a year ago, when I was trying to convince myself that Michael Bowden could be useful.
  16. Phil Hughes chatter seems to be picking up. After he goes, the mid-tier starting pitcher FA market is just about cleaned out, I think.
  17. I'm not crazy about our 2015 outlook, but yeah the error bars on any such projection are so huge as to make it barely interesting to even try.
  18. Ranks 33rd out of 87 catchers (min. 50 projected PAs) on Steamer for OPS.
  19. ?? Three True Outcomes. 56% of his PAs last year ended in BB, K or HR
  20. Homer Simpson reacts to the Cubs' offseason so far:
