QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 09:15 PM) Robin has pride. He'll resign after this season. You can't save your job directing a team this s***ty. Bye Robin. You tried but the team is one of the worst in baseball again with a relatively decent payroll. Bye bye. We can only hope.

Bring up the f***ing kids already.

Do we really need to Saladino continuously shoved down our throats?

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 06:23 PM) He's going to accept the QO, no doubt about it. I wouldn't even offer it to him. f*** him. f*** the sandwich pick. Yeah Samardzija is cancer. I don't want him on the SOX. Let him test the market.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 06:21 PM) Rodon is fun to watch too. Thanks, you're right about that.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 06:17 PM) Booing has started Rightfully so. I can't stand Samardzija at this point and can't wait for him to be gone.

I'm watching Chris Sale starts and when TT actually starts. That is all.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 02:31 PM) That's good news then. Think of all the Chicagoans out in Vegas betting 1000 or so bucks on the Cubs winning it all. Vegas knows so I'm glad we're safe this first postseason of their upcoming dominance. No Cub title this year! Greg you cannot be this freaking obtuse.

It's ok guys. Let's hope this is last of KW,Hahn, and Robin and his entire terrible staff.

QUOTE (JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 11:55 AM) Sale would have a sub 2 ERA in the NL Grienke esque

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 11:27 AM) Really? I had to reread this a few times. The Blue Jays aren't some historically unbeatable offense. You throw Kershaw or Bumgarner or Sale at them and it's still going to be a tough day for the Jays. Plus there are some weaker pitchers, like Samardzija, they just match up with poorly for whatever reason. Sale is better than Bum and Ker. I don't think their unbeatable but I think their offense is way better than the cubs.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 11:14 AM) Whoever said the Cubs offense was elite right now? That'll come in 2017. And the Blue Jays have the best offense of the post steroid era. Man, you have to be paying attention to the media and how they consistently deep throat the cubs. I'll admit they are good kids, but they are just that, kids... once they get some experience, yeah I believe they'll be a force to be reckon with too.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 03:31 AM) Bumgarner/Kershaw are the two best pitchers in the world. Lots of teams would get shutdown. It was more of a point that the Cubs hitters are good in the sense they destroy s***ty pitching like they should. But they are too young to be considered an elite offense. Throw Bum or Kershaw at the Blue Jays... most likely different results.

Of course the Cubs get shut down by good pitching. Their hitters are young and easily dispatched of.

Oh no Trayce tonight and a predictable f***ing result. I can't wait for Robin, KW, and Hahn to be jettisoned.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Aug 28, 2015 -> 03:54 PM) Yes, they're totally different. One is politically correct and the other isn't. Sigh. One has a history and the other was just stolen to represent their cause recently.

H squared... you're grasping or trolling. I can't really tell but comparing the confederate flag and rainbow flag as synonymous is disingenuous at best.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 28, 2015 -> 10:32 AM) Oops/ FWIW it seem the team quit during that time.

One can hope.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 27, 2015 -> 10:56 PM) The fact that this thread hasn't gotten to 100 posts and has already died shows you how much any of us believe gun control of any kind will happen. It won't. The gun lobby in this country is strong. No to mention a lot of the people of this country would oppose this. This is not the UK or Japan.

Man I want to see Rodon pitch against KC.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Aug 27, 2015 -> 09:58 PM) I think the cubs would be under .500 in the AL Based on what? Some of the top teams are in the NL right now. Would you say that about the Cardinals or Pirates too?

Saladino needs to work on his stroke. It's sooooo bad right now. He just pounds balls in the grounds or pops out. He should just learn to work walks.

Atta boy Nate.
