Gigantic Willy Style - The Willson Contreras Thread
Bull replied to Sammy Sofa's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I'm not a big "protection" guy, but I kinda love how, now, if teams walk Rizzo, they get punished. -
Wilson is dead, Long live Willson!

i've read a couple of posts on this page now alluding to something like this...is there some report i missed where this is being talked about under the table even though it's against the rules or whatever? No, just the general understanding that that is the only way the Cubs could compete financially with the restrictions in place. And if it was being reported, it wouldn't be very well hidden under the table, would it? If Theo does it, we'll never know. But it doesn't seem very practical to me. What if the under the table deal is in place and he tears his UCL in the first season. Won't it look a little suspicious giving a $150 million contract to a guy on a TJS operating table?

2017 Playoff Ticket Lottery ($50 refundable deposit required)
Bull replied to UMFan83's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Keep that negativity flowing Duke, I think its working. -
Yeah, that's an absolutely terrible position to take. There's nothing anyone on this team has done (besides Russell probably) to make me even remotely feel any animosity toward them. They're a good bunch of guys that are just not playing very good baseball right now. Oh please. I'm a Cub fan since 1984. I will root for this team forever, and root for them to win every game from here on out. But there's no part of you that will say "horsefeathers you guys" if they blow this? You will just be "disappointed" and not the slightest bit angry? '84? Pshah. Fair weather fan. Come back when you've been a fan since '69.

That's how Hendricks becomes a hall of famer for the braves. And I will blame you. and duke.

8 of 10 in a dome. I'm most excited about this. No stupid opening day followed by an off day.

There shall henceforth always be two gam threads. -
This needs to be a front page article.

I'm at the game. Didn't look good for Jake. Any updates? -

I really have no problem going into next year with basically what we started this year with, but Montgomery and Quintana replacing Lackey and Arrieta. If you can sign Otani, bonus. Look to bolster the ration at next years trade deadline.

I know he's not much, if anything, of a prospect but keep this man in the organization even if it's as a coach or bullpen catcher probably an awful teammate who will attempt to parlay his moment in the sun into a reality TV career.

We have 10 games until our next scheduled off day and then another scheduled off day 6 games after that. So if we let Monty go one more time and then bring Lester back, with those off days, I think that would roughly give everyone an extra day off between starts the next 2-3 times through the rotation going forward before the last stretch of games in September/October. My math may be slightly off but think it's roughly right. Looks like this is happening, good to get everyone (not just Lester) a little extra rest. I don't even consider it extra rest. They are in the middle of their longest stretch of the year without an off day (20). This is just Joe fixing what the schedule makers screwed up. Add that its the time of year where team could very likely be making up postponed games, and its kinda ridiculous. Its just serendipitous that its Lester instead of random AAA call up.
