Unreal how stupid he is, but racist homophobic misogynistic people tend to lean very stupid.

I don't agree with this at all. Any season-ending arm injury to a pitching arm is damning enough, with or without surgery, but then his performance when on the field was decidedly meh. It was only 8 starts, but he was striking out 2 guys less per 9 than last year in AA, while still throwing loads o...

We need more degenerate gambol chat on this site. I'll drop it in here whenever it's appropriate but am 100% behind more degenerate talk. I bet a few games or totals everyday, so I'd love to talk to more people about stupid beats. I used to be big into the poker in its heyday, but most of my gambli...

Where did you get those prices? Also anybody know what order they are doing the derby? Only care to watch Schwarber and Javy I jumped on Schwarber earlier than Javy. That was on 5Dimes. Grabbed Hoskins to be beat Aguilar +130 on betonline. We need more degenerate gambol chat on this site. I'll drop...

Threw a couple shekels on Schwarber +650 and Javy +760 for tonight. Where did you get those prices? Also anybody know what order they are doing the derby?

i just retweeted that Craig Edwards gem and he blocked me before I could blink. Solid job with that hire Fangraphs. Unfortunate.

https://sports.yahoo.com/marcus-stroman-blue-jays-f-221800191.html Steve Buffery of the Toronto Sun reports that while Stroman was initially cool, calm, and collected when speaking to the media after the game, he eventually snapped. Stroman was asked by a reporter about breaking into professional b...

July 14: Jacob deGrom and Noah Syndergaard would be the prizes of the starting pitching market if the Mets decided to trade either of their two aces. So it's no surprise that Syndergaard was being heavily scouted on his return from the disabled list Friday at Citi Field. On hand to watch the flamet...

Casey Coleman just punched out 9 in 6 for Iowa. I didn't even know he was back in our org. Since he was in Indy ball did he do something to re-invent himself like Rich Hill?

St. Louis style pizza makes the list but Detroit deep dish doesn't? That horsefeathers is delicious. Via 313 in Austin is horsefeathering amazing. One good thing about leaving Chicagoland and moving to Austin is there are a million types of pizza from hipsters that left the cold in the midwest. I t...

Good news?

It's an extremely cautious timeline, which I am fine with, but this injury shouldn't be a 2 month ordeal like this. They don't really need to push him though and this should keep him fresh for October.

Re-add: Hoskins
Drop: Cespedes

I'm all in on Morfa now.

Sorry guys, but we're about to be replaced atop the division power rankings because this guy has figured horsefeathers out. You must read the thread to appreciate how good this truly is.

Since its Cubs-Brewers the next 3 days, I thought I would check up on things over at brewerfan.net I have a hard time seeing a better front office than the Brewers, at least for longevity. The Cubs FO made a dreadful big $ signing, and look like they potentially made 2 more bad ones this past offse...

Vaunted Mariners.

Looked like a hip injury to me and those are always tricky

My initial reaction was the same, but after reading up on the full story, I'm not as sure. I still don't think I'd draft him but there was enough other things going on with the story that is was not as clear cut as I first thought. I read the part where he plead horsefeathering guilty for molesting...

philosophizer75 wrote:I'm glad nobody drafted him. What kind of talent is he? If there was no external factors, where do you think he would've been drafted?

He would've been drafted in the first round or comp round.

The Cubs don't need the bad publicity, but I wonder on a more societal level whether he should forever be barred based on a teenage mistake (his claims of innocence not withstanding). The move toward felons voting is picking up steam, and I think that's probably consistent with where our society is...

Drop Hoskins
Add Haniger
