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

It's what happens when you give a kid the keys to the Ferrari.

Ned Colletti is garbage.

Team is extremely flawed defensively. Worst defensive SS in baseball, below average Catcher and no true center fielder.

Holding on to useless pitchers like Brian Wilson and Chris Perez for no real reason.

Payroll doesn't mean anything when the guy in charge doesn't know what he is doing.

Don Mattingly is a terrible manager as well.

And he just got an extension

Harang back!

Phillies offense lately

Dodger fans on here could collectively GM better than Colletti.

Ya I never understood how Hanley is a SS. The dude lacks in every aspect of the defensive side

Ego...

Tough blow for a SS to move to 3b, from little league up, pitchers aside, SS's are the biggest divas.

They need to give Hanley tough love, no 3b, no extension. He's not a SS anymore, poor range, poor fundamentals.

As bad as the Dodgers have been, they've won 7 out of 10 and cut the NL West lead to 5, so it's not all bad.

I still think the Dodgers have a Price run in them before it's all said and done.

They'll have to gut the system and I don't think they want to do that at the moment.

Pederson, Urias are definitely off limits and those are the two that the Rays will definitely want.

I hear ya. I have no clue how they wanna work out the OF clog they have right now. I'd slightly lean that Joc goes with someone like close to league ready like Reed.

But then again, I think he ends up in St. Louis or Oakland I'm just throwing out random thoughts.

30 for 30 on the 89 Series being made, will be released in October.

Will definitely record that one.

For some reason, I was under the impression that this was supposed to happen last fall.

Anyways, the guy that directed "Fruitvale Station," is handling this. Definitely, checking for it.

Jose Abreu he's a beast

Dodgers are gonna trade Kemp for Nick Franklin

 

[johnnyredstorm]

How good is Alex Guerrero? He's the one Olive Tyson'd right?

 

[proshares]

If Olivo didn't get a bite outta him, I think he may have been up already Dee has been slumping hard lately.

 

[green rhino123]

Red down 1-0 in the 10th, with only 1 hit so far in the day...then...

Back-to-back HR's by Oritz & Napoli to win it! Great finish!

Royals in 1st place pre-season prediction looking good, but it's still early.

Would of made sense in the off season when the team was desperate for middle infield help. Gordon has done a good job at 2b, and you have Guerrero in the minors. Major hole is at SS, and Franklin wouldn't fill that void IMO.

I just don't see it happening unless the Mariners take on the majority of Kemp's contract.

Plus, Crawford just went down once again,

 

[madj55]

Just saw the highlights from the DBacks/Brewers game last night at how that sequence played out. I wish Gomez would've been the one to hit the grand slam cause he would've done the biggest pimp job on a tater the MLB has ever seen.

Judging by their attendance numbers. No.

You must of not seen the coliseum the last time the angels came to town. They got swept in front of 3 sellout crowds..

22,600 a night. 25th in the league. Im pretty sure the three sellouts had more to do with the fact that the Angels were in town than Oakland
