2016 Cubs catch-all thread
QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 16, 2016 -> 07:30 PM) So of course after everything this offseason, Dexter Fowler has been incredible. If only LaRoche retired earlier. Yea other than him taking out their 22 year old stud left fielder, he's been outstanding so far.

QUOTE (Lillian @ Apr 16, 2016 -> 04:48 PM) I guess that I do tend to explore some pretty desperate alternatives, in my never ending quest for a left handed hitter. I'm the first to admit that. Funny thing is... you weren't until Quinarvy called you out on it a while back.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 16, 2016 -> 07:21 PM) Hawk was saying they were worried about it in spring training. I have always liked him, but if he isn't going to throw stirikes, give him a Knights uniform and call someone else up. Agreed. Just weird. Almost as if he has the YIPS or something.

What's up with Petricka's control this year. He's already walked 5 guys this year. He only had 18 all of last season.

Really wish Robin ran more with this team. Melky for example can easily be a 10-20 SB guy here. Hell, Rizzo is up there with the Cubs and I'd argue at least 6-7 guys in our lineup are faster and/or have bether technique.

QUOTE (harkness @ Apr 16, 2016 -> 07:04 PM) I swear we lead the majors in that category the past 4 years... outs recorded without the pitcher actually throwing a strike That comes with the lack of OBP (still) with this team. Eaton and Avila have the best eye of the strike zone, but only one of them is actually good.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Apr 15, 2016 -> 09:51 AM) Woj said he has really regressed and will most likely be drafted in the 2nd round and spend at least a couple years in the D League. I can see it or at best.. a late 1st. Kid doesn't even look that athletic. Maybe it's because I still have DeAndre Jordan's mixtape in my head. He was a freak of nature.

I think Scotty is gonna have one of those talks with Q if they lose this one. Luckily Keith addition will be more beneficial. That 3rd line with have no offense though with that anchor dragging it.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Apr 15, 2016 -> 08:15 AM) I think they'll win today and Sunday with Sale and Q and lose on Saturday with Danks. I can see us losing with Q and winning with Danks actually.. or lose both. Our guys just don't like giving Quintana run support.

2015-2016 NBA Thread
QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 10:34 PM) What was worse, Rose's injuries or Pennies? I'd argue Rose's but Penny had Shaq so who knows what that would have turned into. I still think Bulls win a title the year Rose went down. He was so f***ing good pre-injury. Was watching highlights of old Rose last night and I forgot just how f***ing nasty he was. So aggressive, so much killer instinct. Made me realize just how much his regression is due to his mental regression / fear vs. physical loss. Rose for sure. Penny's knees gave out the year Shaq got low balled and left. Penny was the better overall player, but Rose was the franchise. The only one I'd say was even worse was Grant Hill who SHOULD have been one of the all time greats. Phenomenal player.

Just ridiculous that one of Sharks-Kings and Blues-Blackhawks will be knocked out of the first round. Either of those teams I'll take over the other teams (not named Washington) in the playoffs in a 7 game series, Dallas included.

That 30 for 30 episode with the Magic was great. People to this day forget how good Penny Hardaway was. A damn shame injuries derailed his career. He and Shaq as Shaq put it "Were Shaq and Kobe before Shaq and Kobe."

Mashinter had no business playing in this game. Keith (who will be in) and Panik (who SHOULD be in) better be drawing Svedberg and Mashinter next game. Hell, I'd put in Weise for Desjardins as well. Weise is a much better playoff performer and Hawks need the offense.

Haven't seen so many people cheer for a player who wasn't a Bull in quite some time at the bar tonight. Kobe was unreal.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Apr 13, 2016 -> 11:48 AM) Can they find a trade down partner?( I prefer this route) Absolutely but it's hard to see it happening. Hopefully a team likes a certain player and makes the move. Bears need talent and collecting multiple picks where the talent is pretty equal after the top 8 (arguably 10) is essential. I'm also good with swapping picks with the Jets and getting Wilkerson too.
