  1. Exactly. And the possibility of getting pick 31 and then a future first from colts to still then get Carter.
  2. I did yes, I don’t know why I always pair Wilson with Bryce. Is there a Bryce Wilson? Is it just generic last name substitution? We’ll never know.
  3. Also now that we have the number one pick I fully support all bears fans loudly talking about how they’d rather draft Wilson over fields. I hear he is a generational QB, best accuracy since Rodgers. Bears would need a HUGE trade to consider not drafting Wilson.
  4. Man that was awesome.
  5. Lovie! Lovie! Lovie!
  6. It says 2021 right? That’s not impossible, given that fans didn’t get in until June. Shows how terrible of a business man he is though given how the braves pulled a 100 mill profit.
  7. No no let’s get young so that after he completes a thirty yard pass to the ten getsy can use his accuracy to run three straight times and kick a field goal
  8. Fields has led the bears to become a team that will end up top five in explosive plays. Any offensive coordinator would gladly work backwards from there, especially when the talent is so poor. Getsy has run the ball so much as part preference, part that his offensive line was immensely better at run blocking than pass protection. Fields number 2 receiver was a #5 on Getsys previous team. You can even hear from the coaching staff how much happier they were on fields progress vs the first few weeks. Bryce Young is a great QB prospect, and I think he’ll be good. He’s also very small, and could easily have injuries pile up.
  9. Lol if you think getsy scrapped his system. There was not much different than weeks 1-4 except some more planned runs and much better execution from Fields (including running when he should have ran in the first few weeks).
  10. Today really is the Super Bowl for the bears. They may very well be able to get paid by the Texans just to move back to 2, and then get paid by a team to get Stroud. I always felt like stroud would move up pre draft, but it’s still not a sure thing. For my whole life it felt like the bears were always one pick behind the fulcrum of the draft, just behind the team that had all the leverage to trade down. #2 should be strong regardless, but to really be the team holding the cards on how the draft will fall would be so sweet.
  11. I’d say Forbes is like consistently 40% below selling price. Sometimes more.
  12. There have been three writers now that have linked Gleybar to the Sox. Not necessarily the world beaters, but Bruce joins Bowden and then a few weeks ago Dan O’Dowd.
  13. For Romy, I think that’s true. Given Sosa and Jose’s age I don’t see them sustaining success in AAA this year as a block. They have a lot they can work on, even if I’d like Sosa to work on it in majors. But Romy is ideally our new Leury.
  14. Exactly. Also So strange how board buys into Joey gallo crumbling under New Yorks pressure but the guy getting crushed for not being the heir apparent to Jeter is never afforded same sympathy.
  15. Ok then you can trade Gleybar next year for value rather then the boards preferred acquisition which is “not good enough that a rookie with slightly below average offense couldn’t surpass them without us incurring too much cost for moving on”
  16. He’s not really more of what we have because he had a mid year and hit 25 home runs which would have been comfortably the team leader for us, and it would have been from the spot that’s produced like 10 home runs in the last 3 years combined.
  17. Many yankee fans weren’t even sure they were going to pick up the option before he got hot in September. Read an article in the pinstripe alley blog they thought he was out
  18. “Fits their system better” let’s bring Nagy back
  19. Did you write this nonsense post and start it off with “what does this mean?”
  20. I’d still, if I was Hahn, go after Gleybar hard.
  21. I love these two posts. @Dick Allen is spot on laying out how first how they are refusing to finish the job after initiating a multi-year rebuild. And second how Reinsdorf teams tend to successfully create the image they operated with their very difficult constraints. A classic was paxson, who limited himself in team building strictly thru draft and adding free agents with salary cap space and was constantly saying well who else could we have gotten with those very specific routes? And then you pair that with @Eminor3rdsummarizing the Jays offseason in which they were unsatisfied with their first round exits after years long rebuilds, saw their right handedness and poor defense as a culprit and did a huge renovation of their outfield and added pitching. The $$ added is less, though obviously prospect capital out was much more. The Sox did also address their handedness and defense, going from a LF that was very below avg to avg and improving on a bizarrely bad year from AJ pollock. The blue jays took a bad defense and made it one of the best in the league. They added one of the best starters available and added pitching depth.
  22. Paddy has struggled to fill his classes after the CBA has changed, but is still the highest performing member of Hahns front office so he has no standing to push him
