2016 MLB thread. THE CUBS HAVE BROKEN THE CURSE! Chicago Cubs are your 2016 World Series champions

Stanton is not staying there, so they almost have to do something with him... Olt has to have like no value right now, so I dunno.

The Rangers are going to be in the playoffs but they're going to need to make a move if they want to really compete. I'm just thinking out loud.

Stanton is the guy I'd really want, and I'd give up an awful lot to get him. Profar + Perez maybe, now that Grimm and Tepesch have started to establish themselves and prove they can pitch at this level. Deal from the pitching depth and make it happen.

 

[Hahahaha]

I love everyone that says the Yankees should win all the time because of their payroll.......


Dodgers
Angels
Phillies
Red Sox (two years ago)

Strasberg demeanor on the mound is getting annoying....he acts like a lil diva

There's only a couple of stadiums that should never be torn down and wrigley is one of them, along with Boston and dodger stadium, Yankee stadium was up there

It's been improved plus its got some history

Dodgers are terrible

Ya your opinion isn't valid

 

[jumpmanfromdabay]

So soon to be 13-16 isn't terrible?

 

[jbuch2]

4th place with that payroll is terrible.

Can't spin that.

Hell, the Cubs history should be the reason they tear that stadium down and build a new one.........100+ years and counting. Why would you want to keep playing there?

Unless they sign Henry Rowengartner sometime in the near future, They wont win a world series or even get to one...........

i have no clue who Adeiny Hechavarria is but this man is having the game of his life so far (based on the box score, at least)

Marco Estrada

First place in a 20 team fantasy league and this dude decides to wet the bed and cost me points.

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

Dodger Stadium ain't a dump, y'all crazy. Go visit O.Co Coliseum, you'll see a dump.

Should I sit Ryu tonight or keep him?

I'm up .15 in whip and down .06 in ERA.

Up 11-4-1 but could swing if Ryu doesn't do well.

Hey now, as a true Giant fan I can never say anything positive about the dodgers.. I'm really on the fence, he was great last start but I know the Giants teed off on him when they faced him last time.

 

[do work son]

thank you carlos pena

:x

haha but seriously, that start was 4/2 his first start of the year/majors/country. i think he does better than 10 H this time around at the very least.

 

[madj55]

Gio was grinding through that start today, but he got the job done

Espinosa's bat might be starting to wake up too

Matt Kemp has to be the most overrated player in the Major Leagues when talking about defense.  His ball judging skills are just horrendous.  Cant believe this dude has gold gloves.

I've been saying this since he won the gold glove, classic example of a dude taking terrible routes to balls and making spectacular players on his miss played balls.

Eric Brynes was a lot like that
