Yadier Molina deserves a billion-dollar contract for these things.

Part of me can't wait for him to retire so we can see a Major League manager with neck tattoos.

Ryan Zimmerman is hot garbage
Something is wrong in his head, the guy used to play Gold Glove defense and now every throw he makes I just have to assume it's gonna fly into the stands :{

Also, we might have the worst bench in the league.
 
After his error, Strasburg absolutely imploded :{
I actually hate watching Strasburg pitch a majority of the time. The guy is a primadonna on the mound and if the smallest thing goes wrong he can't handle the adversity. Sure, Zimmerman's error was ugly but what bothered me was that the next two hitters were the 8 and 9 spots. He proceeds to walk Darwin Barney and then give up a bolt to the pitcher. Then he just completely gives up on the game and walks the next batter before giving up a two run single. I also noticed that Strasburg didn't even bother to back up home plate in case of a bad throw. :{ it just pisses me off that he's got such great stuff yet doesn't have the attitude or intangibles to be an ace...at least not yet.

Cubs lock Rizzo up already? :hat

Theo getting he and Starlin locked in long term with good value is a great start for us. Hope they stay healthy and develop.
 
The Cubs surely won the Rizzo deal, but I still like Cashner a lot.

Guessing Dale Sveum won't be around when they do start putting it all together.
 
When will Billy Hamilton get called up?

Heard he's been "struggling" a bit in comparison to the previous campaign.

that speed is worthless if he can't get on base... which he can't. first year in AAA, first year playing center... we'll see him in September. maybe.
