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

Familia. Going through a rough stretch, still a kid, he deserves his job. Clippard is a rental, Familia is the future.

gotcha. just becomes more crucial since you guys are fighting for a playoff spot. if you were out of the playoff picture, i'd stick with familia for sure.

how's the field/weather looking? you think the game gets called? 

field is a disaster honestly. but i think they wait as long as needed. game would have to be resumed at the end of the season if not.

I gotta watch a Jays game now.

 

[madj55]

I thought Morse was traded, why is he batting?

Strange, especially considering their GM is the manager who picked him to go up there.

@JackCurryYES: Yankees just acquired Dustin Ackley from the Seattle Mariners, source said.

Yeah enjoy non winning baseball. Blue jays the equivalent to the philadelphia eagles before the fire sale.

Jesus Christ read about this earlier. BA about 50pts higher than drews with worse defense hope he just gave the cash considerations and nothing else for this bum.

low risk low reward move

 

[nick.]

we traded Ramon Flores + another player

hope he can improve going from Safeco to Yankee Stadium...

perfect description. This was just a depth move as if we really needed it tho. We've played 3 2nd baseman this year should have just rolled with one of them.

Jose Ramirez is the other player

yeah just saw that

don't know why we needed another light-hitting 2B, but whatever

Depth is all I could think about. We didn't give up much but we didn't get much

@JackCurryYES: Small sample size alert...Ackley at Yankee Stadium: 17 games, .296/.397/.481, 2 HR, 9 RBI.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Ackley was the 2nd pick overall in 09. Worth gambling on.

Meh though didi was going to be complete trash and he's turned out ok. Gonna believe in cashmans attempt at moneyball for now.

 

[bigpat630]

Remember how I had TWO Puig bobbleheads and selling one and keeping one myself?

This is what someone messaged me on Ebay

"Your a disgrace to all the true dodgers fans out there who didn't get a bobble last night. Why don't you get a real job and let real fans have the sgas"

 THE SALT

Haters. When I've gone to a game with the gf, and we have an extra bobble head, I'll throw it on eBay. There are 40,000 to give away. You can show up in the first inning and still get one usually.

The last 18 hours for the metropolitans.. Yikes :x

 

[nomnom]

The good ol days

[brendasdeadbaby]

The last 29 years for the metropolitans.. Yikes :x

Fixed

 

[Hahahaha]

Why in the **** did we trade for Ackley? That guy is trash.

 

[madj55]

Fixed

1986 was 29 years ago...

 

[brendasdeadbaby]

1986 was 29 years ago...

[nomnom]

1999/2000 Mets
