  1. He could have outlasted Lucchino. He walked. He is listed as a jerk in my thick Book of Jerks.
  2. Sure the Cubbies have a monster to feed -- Theo's Ego.
  3. I agree. Chapman was a redundancy for the skanks. Miller and Betances are enough to hold down the back of the pen.
  4. I just think that he is a jerk for walking out on the Red Sox.
  5. oh. I thought he was younger. Maybe I mixed him up with Bogey.
  6. He was a train wreck defensively
  7. He was at least 2 years younger than Benintendi.
  8. Or just because it is the Cubs and they are run by the "flat-leaving" Theo.
  9. The everyday player can affect 150-160 games -- a pitcher can only effect 30-33 games.
  10. The cone of silence has descended over his rehab.
  11. When is Young due back?
  12. Most of them are dopey at best. The two World Series managers last season -- Collins and Yost can't chew gum and walk at the same time. Unless the manager is tearing apart a team's morale, they don't matter very much. The players seem to be responding to Farrell, so there is no reason for him to go right now. He should probably wear a helmet in the dugout to protect his 2 brain cells. Proof positive to me of the pervasive stupidity of managers is the copycat mentality that has led to overshifting on .220 hitters who get themselves out -- thus giving one of their squibs or pop flies a chance at being a hit.
  13. This is year 5 of his tenure-- 3 last place finishes and still no division title. He wants to lock it down and getting to the WS will not be easy this season even if they win the division.
  14. Theo has never been good at negotiations.
  15. It is pretty obvious that Buch does not have the same stuff after his 2015 injury. The difference in his stat line is stark. He didn't return to the mound in 2015 after his injury, so the Red Sox should not have assumed that he would return to his pre-injury form. That among many other reasons is why his option was not a no-brainer, unless the plan was to pick up the option and trade him.
  16. That's a funny one. I wish Buch had your confidence.
  17. While I am willing to trade prospects for Sale, I am never in favor of trading an every day player who is a star for any pitcher. Never.
  18. It was ugly, but it is a win, and all wins are beautiful!
  19. One is usually out for maintenance.
  20. Why did Farrell let Barnes stay in to load the bases in the 8th when Tazawa is back active in our pen?
  21. Maybe we will get a glimpse of Kelly's home run ball today.
  22. Because Farrell is .....
