Why not? We did when Schwarber was in left. Just kidding. I shouldn’t have done that. You’re in enough pain given your username.

losing len hurt me more than any chicago athlete leaving ever has. i guess we all just assumed that he would be here for a very long time. when was the last time the Cubs lost or any other Chicago team lost a real stud in their prime? I was really bothered when the Cubs lost Maddux. I wasnt shocked because everyone knew it was coming. It still bothers me that the Cubs screwed up so bad with a HoFer and then have the audacity to retire his number. I think the thing with Len is the shock of it. You always get the sense that relationships are ending no matter what level they are on. This completely floored me. Did you just compare “Kasper to the Sox” to “Maddux to the Braves”? Nah.

I started to make a tongue-in-cheek comment that perhaps the score informed Kasper that the radio pbp job was promised to Zach zaidman when Hughes hangs em up. Couldn’t remember his name exactly. Learned that some pretty gory stuff has happened to people named Zach Zabin and Zach Sabin.

The luxury tax is much closer to a salary cap than people let on.

PTR is just gonna promote the leftovers up a spot so he only has to hire a low level scout. Its amazing how often your sig matches your post.
-
Sadly, I don’t think they do in this market. True or false, the owner will all be PTR this year.

rain delay = world series saved. rain postponement = postseason saved. -
So PTR is now Good Guy Greg?

Did you read the article, or just the clickbait headline? Its obvious that the reporter used the word "worried" and Ross "admitted" he was enough to pull him. "another at bat, something serious happens and he's done for the season." Awful reporting and you're awful for posting it. edit: and moreso for associating the great scoob with it.

Oh, conveniently cutting it off to exclude Zambrano? NOT COOL. Na. Very cool. I feel like this acknowledges how much better Z was than anyone ever. He's the moment in history from which you measure time.
-
This sure doesn't feel like a 95 win season.
-
He really needs to be hitting 2nd or 3rd in this order Don’t move him and horsefeathers him up again like last year. Yeah, he doesn’t need to move up, our 2 and 3 hitters need to get their crap together.
-
Yeah they’ve turned in to a good group here. And if anything they have a really nice core that might not need a ton of resources spent on it next year outside of a vet Jeffress type deal. Kimbrel/Wick/Tepera/Underwood/some combo of the 3 lefties (Ryan/Osich/Wieck), Adam, and then internal guys like Adbert/Miller/Callaway/Megill/Rodriguez/Steele/Mills. They shouldn’t need to really spend money on the pen. Nothing has gone as expected this season, except Lester getting old and Almora being Almora. And oddly enough the record. Hitting was supposed to be awesome instead of awful, rotation a question mark and bullpen booty. Everything backward, yet same net result. Funny game, this.
-
I know you have to take 2of3 at home, but this felt more like a relief than a reasonably expected result. Even in a blowout.

William’s older brother is good.

They say “on the Rockies opening day roster” as if its an improvement on his previous situation.
-
Jose was my favorite Cub at the time, but even back then it was obviously an awesome trade. Jose Hernandez was your favorite Cubs player on a team that had Sammy Sosa, Mark Prior, Kerry Wood, good CPatt, Big Z, etc? I mean, your favorite could be whoever but that's weird as hell lol He was the strikeout king before striking out was cool.

Does tonight’s game get its own thread or go here?

Our bodies only remain immune to the three coronaviruses that cause common cold (some 30% of common colds, I think) for 18 months. So probably not. Obvious disclaimer, we have no idea if that is true for this one which is so much different From those three in so many other ways, but this is probably with us until a (yearly) vaccine comes along. This virus is like MERS and, obviously, SARS, and immunity to those lasts years. That’s ... encouraging

No, just wishfully thinking I'd guess At the rate people are getting infected lately, maybe we'll hit that fabled mid-20s percent rate and it'll start burning out by then. Pathetically, that might be our best hope. Our bodies only remain immune to the three coronaviruses that cause common cold (some 30% of common colds, I think) for 18 months. So probably not.

Same here. I got back in line at the back :(

"You're going to look back in 30-40 years and say there was only one Shoshei Ohtani" I feel like this is true but not in the way the author maybe meant. I think it's going to be true in a Glenallen Hill, Rob Deer, Aroldis Chapman, Dwight Gooden, even Kerry Wood kind of way rather than a Barry Bonds, Mike Trout, Nolan Ryan kind of way. I don't think his crazy skills will translate into counting stat greatness or even a long enough period of rate-stat greatness for history to take notice. Like I'll be sitting in my hovering rocking chair sipping on imitation iced tea supplement 42 and I'll start jabbering about Shoshei Ohtani. My grandkids will stick their heads out of the hatch of their sensory immersion game cube (trademark) buried in the floor and say, "who?", and my son will say, "honey, time to give the old man his morphine/propofol patch. He's babbling again". I'll fade off into a hallucination of my personal field of dreams as I crap myself.
