Tough to pitch for a shittyteam like Philly when you thought you'd be elsewhere. I bet he'd do better if he were traded.

 

Apparently Hamels is a Slow Starter. Maybe that's why Benny Boy hasn't traded for him yet.

I agree with that mvp. Try using your influence to talk Cherington to give Amaro a call and offer him good deal save for Betts and Swihart. Well we all know about Amaro, don't we? On second thought table that suggestion for the time being until Masterson keep s***ing the bed and Buchholz loses his composure five or six times in a row.

In Cubs vs Padres game, Middlebrook went yard, opposite field HR.. i cannot for the life of me remember him trying to go the opposite way.. oh well.

The Cubs are promotiing Kris Bryant tonight. That should bring some excitement to Cubs fans.

 

It should help enhance the allure of the Cubs.

I'm listening to Texas at Seattle. How the hell do you even pronounce Rougned Odor?

Was thinking of getting a #16 jersey til I remembered it was that jackass's number.

Jose Reyes of the Jays has a cracked rib, and will try to play through it. Remember when that happened to Ells?

Wasn't he out for 1/2 the season?

[Spudboy]

Remember when some Talksox members were pining for Reyes to be the next Sox shortstop?

 

The guy is perpetually injured. So when mentioning him in the same breath as Ellsbury maybe it should be suggested that Reyes himself is fragile.

See him in 3 months.

[a700hitter]

Although it is very early in the season, it is still interesting to note that the Mets and the Astros are in first place in their divisions.

[a700hitter]

Also, the Cubs are calling up Addison Russell to play second base to go along with Bryant. I wonder whether Theo will trade Castro if Russell plays well.

Mets fans were clamoring for the team to pay full price for his FA contract. They did the smart thing letting him walk.

Has ANYONE got the uncensored audio of the Reds manager's rant?

[Spudboy]

I have not seen it available but would love to hear it!

 

I say good for him!

Shades of Lee Elia. Now that s*** was priceless.

[Northern Star]

But Christian Bale is the gold standard against which any profanity-laced tirade is measured.

How can anyone not like the Cubbies?

They have Theo and Jon. They have Bryant and Addison Russell. And of course, everyone's favorite, Joe Maddon. And they're 8-5, after a slow start.

They also have Anthony Rizzo who had some fans here in Portland. I root for him, too.

There's too much young talent on this team to keep track and include them all. Junior Lake, Baez, you name 'em.

I like the Cubs, but I'm having a tough time with that one.

not a fan of Mr MaGoo.

 

[Dojji]

Jeeze, KC, cool it. That's what, 2 brawls in a week with 2 different teams? You're quickly shaping up to be the favorites of fans who like an old school, rough, tough, defiant mindset but there's a limit.

Josh Hamilton might be on his way back to the Rangers?! Woah!

Who eats his contract?

[Northern Star]

When you are trying to offload a guy with a huge contract (Fielder, Hamilton) it's the duty of your trading partner to squeeze you til you bleed as far as who eats the contract.

[Northern Star]

Also, this doesn't make much sense. The Angels are a rival, why give them a break by taking Hamilton off their hands?
