I don't think I'd give him a two year guaranteed deal for any significant money but a one year with an option and buy out wouldn't be bad. Not sure why you're saying the power isn't there. He has 5 doubles and 3 homers over just 70 at bats. That would be 38 doubles and 23 homers over the course of a 526 at bat season, which was Morneau's average number of at bats the 3 seasons prior to his injury. Which is actually impressive considering he had elbow surgery a few months ago

Here comes Robertson to Robertson all over this 9th

Wimpy is always good at drawing conversation from his partners

QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 9, 2016 -> 08:06 PM) Also today is August 9th. Lmao

Sorry the acronym for game day thread is too deep. Stryker, spell it out next time so nobody steps on your dick

QUOTE (Insp @ Aug 9, 2016 -> 07:49 PM) Can't believe that I'm starting another game thread half an hour after the game already started...... Maybe you should look at the gamethread started a half hour before yours

See you in September, Zach

QUOTE (Hatchetman @ Aug 9, 2016 -> 01:51 PM) It's always good to hear Wimpy. I'm not sure he's OK being called Wimpy though. Well he has been getting called that since his playing days, I'm sure he is over it by now

what an astonishingly stupid decision by La Stella. He is an injury away from being right back in the majors, and at the end of the month he comes back up regardless because rosters expand. I would just end his season if I were the cubs. Enjoy New Jersey, dude

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 9, 2016 -> 11:18 AM) And now we are at the Meatball Level of fandom. They've gone plaid!

The "I'm leaving now" messageboard declaration. Always proud. Always poignant.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Aug 8, 2016 -> 08:33 PM) Let's keep his son in the clubhouse at all times. No matter how bad it ends up making us look. Nobody said that. His son is in the US, finally able to visit his father. Not even close to the same thing QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Aug 8, 2016 -> 08:45 PM) I'm not savvy on Cuban politics but why the heck is it so difficult for Abreu to get his family here? http://m.mlb.com/news/article/131616274/th...ave-close-bond/ Seems like a combination of citizenship and his sons mother having custody

QUOTE (Hatchetman @ Aug 8, 2016 -> 07:11 PM) He's got $20MM in the bank so maybe he can go back to Cuba if he can't handle being away for his family. You told us

So a guy goes three years without being able to see his son on a regular basis and all the sudden people know that it shouldn't impact his performance because he was able to get through it in 2014/2015 I don't know about any of you, but the longer I went without being able to see my kids the worse I would get. It is crazy that any of you think it shouldn't matter, because it does.

Yea I know Netflix said they would be dumb not to pick it up, but it hasn't been officially confirmed yet, that's why I worded it the way I did.

QUOTE (ChiSoxJon @ Aug 8, 2016 -> 09:07 AM) Somehow I feel Yasiel Puig winds up on the South Side this winter for better of for worse Personally hope JR pays the other Cuban OF, Cespedes, this winter along with Wilson Ramos and maybe Justin Morneau Will he opt out of that crazy deal though? Dude is gonna make almost 30M dollars for the next two years

^^^^^^^^^^^ proof of rigged

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 8, 2016 -> 01:44 AM) How come there's been no serious talk of making sure the election is not "rigged?" The DNC cannot be trusted. They wanted Bernie out. They'll do anything including rigging elections. How come Obama isn't talking about making sure the election is fair??? Isn't that his responsibility when there's so much talk of rigged elections? Why would he say he has to make it fair? That is acknowledging that it is rigged, that is just ridiculous. He made his statement about it, he laughed at it and called it preposterous, which it is. The longer this election cycle goes on, the tighter gregs tinfoil hat gets
