i will take this opportunity to post this

they don't really need to make major changes to win We've been saying that for 3 years. 92 wins (NLCS), 95 wins (most in NL in regular season) and last years horsefeathers show the last 3 years. If you think the true talent is closer to 2017 and 18 (I do) than 2019, Pythag agreed, then yeah we don’...

horsefeathers it. Trade him. They're obviously not going to spend to make the changes they need to win and they don't have enough bargaining power in Contreras or Schwarber to bring back notable players to make those changes a reality. horsefeathers it. They're gonna do it, might as well accept it....

I like how Theo is playing it close to the vest and will pounce on Cole once the dust clears>

horsefeathers man. I'm dying. have you ever thought about doing an open mic or something?

How about the Cubs just don't horsefeathering trade their best player? I'm having flashbacks from when I was 7 and the Cubs traded Bill Madlock. I cried then, and I'll cry this time too*. *I know Madlock wasn't traded. Yeah, he was... What am I missing? He was traded, but it was because the Cubs wo...

today? the cubs

how about after they do a bunch of dumb crap to get under $208M in payroll?

green bay is a 4.5 pt favorite (after opening at -7 very early on)

WS is undeniably great but we also need to accept that ownership is content to ride that goodwill as far as possible

oh PTR definitely sucks ass.

Reminder that playoffs are crapshoots and that winning a WS is incredibly important to how much fun we had but irrelevant to measuring the quality of the front office’s performance. categorizing 2015, 16, 17, and 18 all as "mission accomplished" doesn't exactly make things look a whole lo...

have we heard anything on whether trevathan can possibly come back this year? i don't think he's been IRed

thats not what im referring to. I'm saying the position we were in circa 2015 with all the prospects and financial flexibility and this is where we're at now with a mediocre farm and no payroll space and a roster whose best players are 2 years from FA. The in between was amazing and the rebuild has...

Mas que pedirte, tengo muchísimo que agradecerte mi Dios

It really sucks that in 2015 we had a ridiculous number of high end prospects and a ton of money to spend and this is where we ended up. a historic and as-fun-as-you-could-possibly-script world series and 3 straight nlcs appearances and 4 seasons of 90+ wins (including a 95, a 97, and a 103) in a r...

nothing is bothering me. i just take joy in making fun of you.

Lol, I’ve never visited either of those sites, but sure. Uhhhh lol http://www.northsidebaseball.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3195&p=383940&hilit=Derwood#p383933 One can know what those sites think without visiting them. There are these things called Facebook and Twitter, you see... Wha...

There is enthusiasm for it in other corners of the internet. And I don’t know that it will be underwhelming, but I’m personally not excited about trading him for lottery tickets. would you stop updating us on what's going on at the cubs den and bcb comment sections Lol, I’ve never visited either of...

Yep. I don’t understand the enthusiasm behind trading him when the return is sure to be underwhelming. Nobody seems enthusiastic about it, it’s been a rumor so it’s been discussed what would be an acceptable return but nobody seems to be saying it should and needs to be done. How do you know it wil...
