This actually makes a lot of sense

Would make it more likely that the best teams play in the title game. Would be interesting to see how they work the schedules.

Don't like this trade because Goldschmidt kills us and we own Weaver. Sure would be nice to have an extra draft pick to trade because "reasons."

As far as releasing the scum bag, sure. But pretty sure they had knowledge of the incident way before today.

Derwood wrote:94 combined points through 3 quarters (OU vs WVU)

Looks like one of my old NCAA ‘14 games. No defense, big plays all over the place, and tons of points.

Saw a tweet that Minnesota isn't going to put Tyler Jay on their 40-man... lefty reliever, 6th pick in 2015 draft, throws low 90s. Might be worth a look, though he has struggled in the minors - has had some shoulder issues so that may be related.

Looking into getting a new desktop for work, doesn't need to be super fancy. Budget of about $500. Really only need the bare bones of word processing and web browsing. Need to have plenty of hard drive storage as well to transfer files, etc. from my old laptop. Suggestions?

hopefully, this means they can all unite in their hatred of David Ross once again.

That's funny, but not any dumber/crazier than every trade proposed on this board that starts with "We can offer some package of Almora, Caratni and Maples for _________" You have an incredible gift for incorrect sanctimony, it is your superpower Seriously, we aren't putting those guys in ...

Conservative Christian here, I know I’ve looked like an idiot in this thread before for not doing research and making stupid claims based on bad info (that started with me defending people supporting Trump as not being terrible people - though the best we can hope for them is that they were willful...

If there are any conservative Christians who lurk in this thread I'd really like to read your opinion on family separation or just Trump in general. How does his behavior embody Christian morals?

Yes, he makes some serious head-scratching in-game decisions, but the Cubs also won a flipping WS just two years ago. Reminder: those head-scratching decisions you speak of nearly cost the Cubs the World Series in Game 7 (letting Chapman pitch the 9th in Game 6, pulling Hendricks and bringing Leste...

Anyone up for taking as stab at ranking and tiering these players by trade value? Unavailable, unlikely to be dealt, or not going to get enough of a return to care about so I'm not including: Quintana, Hamels, Hendricks, Lester, Cishek, Chatwood, Strop, Rizzo, Baez, Bryant, Contreras, Heyward, Zobr...

1-5: Pick any order, I don't care
6: Yankees
7: Astros
8: Dodgers
9: The world ends/Trump declares baseball illegal/a series of sinkholes swallow every baseball stadium
10: Brewers

for the record, I will take credit for Trubisky being awesome today. I dropped him from my fantasy team this week in favor of Baker Mayfield.

Because we force people that otherwise may rehabilitate to live with hardened criminals for years on end?

I would think that the crimes on their record also make it harder to find legitimate employment after they serve that time.

They're even working extra rest into KBs rehab games! Sitting an hour while he waits for Chatwood to walk the park between ABs.

I can't wait to get this idiot out of office. I'm actually okay with that reasoning for a veto. You can't just mandate school districts to magically come up with who knows how many thousands of dollars to make it happen. Teachers should make at least $40,000, its insane that they don't already. I d...

TBS Playoffs Insider wrote:yeah but carpenter is amazing this year

Absolutely. It’s just laughable to me that they think his defense would be a positive in any way.

Saw some Cards fans griping on Twitter that an announcer said Javy has the edge in the MVP race because he plays 3 positions. They argued “so does Carpenter”. It amazes me that they think Carpenters defense at 1st, 2nd and 3rd is even in the same stratosphere as Javy at 2nd, 3rd, and SS.

I don’t know why but I get especially pissed at Cub fans who think Harper will break the Rickett’s pocketbook. They horsefeathering own entire city blocks and a billion dollar company that is not the Chicago Cubs in addition to owning the Chicago Cubs who are worth a billion dollars x3. The only th...

Reds got a decent return from the Braves for Adam Duvall. Get Lucas Sims Matt Wisler and Preston Tucker In like 2013 when those guys were real prospects, maybe. Haven’t they all flamed out pretty much?? Maybe, but Duvall has been awful this year and doesn’t have a place in their OF. Taking a chance...
