Great throw by Schwarbs. Amazing tag by Baez.

Great exchange in comments lol:

I'm reading a bunch of tweets about college pitchers throwing a ton of pitches on short rest. Not cool...

Huh, former Cubs player and PED user Marlon Byrd claims he used PEDs once on purpose and once by accident. Interesting...

Man, I have to take comfort in reading the minor league recaps cause right now the big league team sucks.

Oh hey, Bote hit another HR today. Amaya too. Nice...

I just saw this on the @BestFansStLouis twitter account:



Where to begin...

Man is Greg Holland trash. Cards down 3-1 to Royals in top of 9th. Holland comes in and promptly gives up two singles, then a walk, then a Chief Justice 2-run single. YANKED, and still nobody out, 5-1, men on first and second. \:D/ Oh, and his ERA went up from 7.30 to 8.76. :D We better enjoy this ...

So Justin Wilson has no value to Baltimore -- I know that. It would have to be some three-team trade where Justin Wilson goes to Team C and they send a couple prospects to Baltimore. You're not getting a whole lot for Wilson right now. I think we have the pitching prospects to get a deal done. Most...

You're all wrong... There is nothing worse than being someone's (John) Lackey.

The only reason I haven't completely lost my mind is because I know Theo isn't as dumb as these people. Theo is very smart, but he's also a risk-taker. I'm sure he's thinking about some way to fleece Baltimore again lol. Oh for sure. He's going to be in on Machado, as he should be. But I know he wo...

At least they're using different villains for Spidey than we've seen on screen before. I mean, DC keeps redoing Joker and Lex... I'd rather have Mysterio than another version of the Green Goblin. We haven't seen the Scorpion (I know he makes an appearance in Spider-Man: Homecoming) properly. We hav...

Boy are their expectations going to be shattered with the end return. He’s not going to bring back much more than JD Martinez last year, which was 3 very average prospects and only 1 was top 100 (but not 50, iirc). If we get him it honestly going to be something hilarious like Caritini, Bote, Hatch...

I'm really looking forward to the following sequence of events: 1) Cubs trade Russell, Albertos, ODLC and Hatch for Machado & IFA cap space 2) Cubs sign top 2 IFA and everyone else they were already in line for in July 3) Cubs win world series 4) Cubs announce a new deal with Machado, who takes...

The Athletic has posted their 1st round Mock They have the Cubs selecting Greyson Jenista, OF Wichita State It's not a terrible mock draft (it's good), but I'd rather take every prospect selected after the Cubs pick in this mock over Greyson Jenista. That list includes: Steele Walker, Brice Turang,...

But, it's the Orioles. So, ante up and get the 3.75M or whatever you can get, Theo. It sucks though, because even the O's will notice they're sitting on a gold mine, with 15-20 teams calling about this money...... During the Ohtani stuff, in which they were the one team who didn't do a bid/pitch, d...

Roberts had a comment the other day that this was the worst he’s ever seen Hill’s blister issue and now he’s out playing catch a few days later???? https://twitter.com/kengurnick/status/998684941171896320?s=21 https://twitter.com/McCulloughTimes/status/998694602272980993 https://twitter.com/Crawfor...

https://twitter.com/laurencomitor/status/998668328288903169 I don't like the bad haircut. I'm kinda digging the tiger cardigan he's wearing -- should be wearing a cubs and/or bears cardigan if he really wants to send a signal about coming here. I'm even more perplexed about making a trade for him n...

Having players that are good friends with the best players in the league, one of whom is also one of the best players in the league, is the new market inefffficency. Damn, I was just about to make this joke (new market inefficiency and all). Well done. I'll be going now... https://i.imgur.com/8iPig...

Jake Gyllenhaal cast as Mysterio for the next Spider-man movie. And Michael Keaton will be back. i like these superhero movies but i'm pretty surprised that gyllenhaal would do one Jake Gyllenhaal has been trying to land the role of Batman for years. He's auditioned for it and is rumored to be the ...

CAW-CAW!!!! https://pixel.nymag.com/imgs/daily/vulture/2017/07/05/vulture/1994-TAS.nocrop.w710.h2147483647.jpg Fair enough. Touché, but... I still think Mysterio is the lamest Spider-Man villain. http://5b0988e595225.cdn.sohucs.com/images/20170724/0206fe8fcc2a4600aa30087623c1c0de.jpeg

I never thought Vulture was more lame than Mysterio. Just so we're on the same page, we're talking about this guy: https://www.comicbookherald.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/IMG_20170514_232232_193.jpg An old man with wings and a feather suit and a furry collar. Lol, I didn't read the old comic boo...

I do like the irony of bemoaning a lame comic book villain in one line, and the praising someone for doing a good job playing an even lamer comic book villain in the next line. Pretty sure you don't have to worry about the movie just being some dude in a green onesie with a fishbowl on his head. I ...
