We should also give them Sale and Abreu and then take turns jerking off Theo.

 

This is just blind fandom and embarrassing for actual Cub fans.

You can go up to Clark between Newport and Grace tonight and see how off base they are if you want.

 

My best friend lived there until last year, I have plenty of friends that live in and around wrigleyville. I have no problems with them

There are some hare-brained trade proposals in the Soxtalk offseason plan thread. It's hardly unique to Cubs fans.

I would say that there is a strange sentiment on the score right now of not knowing that Eaton actually had a pretty good year.

I can't believe you're listening.

15th in fWAR for hitters after the ASB

He's one of the weird cases where the national media, who can largely just check in on stats and general sentiment, have a better gauge on his value than local media, who stopped following the sox after Eaton's horrible first 2 months.

Great point, feel the same with Rodon. He was incredible the last few months but received very little hype.

Some scumbag cubs reporter: Hey we need another SP and a CF to fill our lineup... let's see... who's out there.. Oh hey Eaton and Quintana on the south side are signed to pretty team friendly deals, they should be good fit for us.. Let's see who I would trade for them... Maybe Soler and Baez since they are now expandable.. oh wait, maybe that's paying too much, because Cubs are better than Sox you know.. Let me think about it a little more...

 

Somebody tell this scumbag maybe we will entertain them with Avi Garcia and John Danks instead.

Ha, true, now that cubs reporters don't have the reflexive "we'll just trade Castro" they are really going to struggle.

I quit listening to that station about 6 months ago. The weekend or second string guys are mostly cub fans and that's all they would talk about.

If I want Sox news I come here. Why waste time listening to them. Quit listening and you won't regret it!

Baez has already become the new Castro, Soler might as well soon.

They didn't win the WS yesterday?

 

Remember when I told you they wouldn't win it this year ?

That trade proposal can't be real.

Don't listen to Mike Murphy

I miss Murph on the Score, but he can be a loon.

 

Not the aquatic bird.

I agree. He was such a Cubs homer it was funny. He actually talked sports and games. He wasn't trying to make sports radio more than what it is.

Schwarber, Soler, Baez, Almora, P Johnson for Q, Eaton and Melky. HAHA Cubbies

I was talking to a bunch of cubs fans last night. Just to test the waters, i threw out a random trade proposal of "as cubs fans, would you trade Shwarber for Rodon straight up?" Responding "No" all around. Am I nuts to think they are nuts?

I had a Cub fan tell me trading Schwarber for Q straight up was idiotic. Cubs fans like having a weak rotation.

No, you are not nuts. I really like Schwarber's HR/OBP potential but I would not do that trade straight up. I admit that I tend value pitching first and foremost so I'm probably biased.

Lol, wow!

 

Funny coming from a fan base that went a bit goo goo over Q after they watched him strike out 10 cubs hitters at Wrigley.

You don't trade Babe Ruth for pitching, duh

Well, in their defense, their team was 3rd in team ERA last year. It had the NL bump, but, if that's weak, I'll take it.

Kendricks, Hammel, Haren and Wada were fairly pedestrian....it was just that Arrieta was that excellent, along with solid contributions from Lester.

 

So pretty much like the White Sox, top heavy because of Sale and Q but not especially balanced. Rodon's second half really helped maintain the numbers as well as Shark tanked.
