You didn't mention the Twins.
Oh, and I guess my Indians were on a "business trip" in Chicago, since we took 3 out of 4 games from you pussy ass niggas. Just like the Bulls: season over before it started. LMMFAO

Draft next month and still no clear cut #1 overall pick , I think it's just gonna be flooded with a bunch of solid players but no true #1 guy , that Vandy pitcher throws like a Relief guy I dunno if he is a true starter next level, Texas A&M wasn't swinging at his off-speed and was murdering his flat fastball, I guess the SS for Vandy probably has the best case to go #1 he's about as well rounded as it gets but even still he's not a true #1 pick in any other draft. Not sure how great this draft will be a lot of guys that's projected 1st rounders that I have seen don't look really all that great, like they're good but I don't see many true stars.

Keep On Pushing what you think the cubs should do about baez? I read they're considering moving bryant to lf and either castro or russell to 3rd and baez at 2b which is what I prefer

Honestly I rate Baez talent level on a scale of 1-10 probably a strong 8 , but his swing is so far behind It may take even a couple of more years to really fix, that's one of the longest swings I've seen in a while , until he fixes that I think he'll be a low .200's hitter at the MLB level with a ton of K's and not as many HR's as folks think because he won't make enough contact, I wouldn't be shy to trade him while he still has plenty of stock....if I could get a great prospect arm for him or a legit young starter for him i'd pull the trigger , I really hate his swing.
I would let Bryant continue to develop at third, it takes time....I wouldn't trade Castro at all offense is harder to find than pitching these days u better keep any decent bat you have, i'd leave those two up the middle for the rest of the season then go over a few things as far as if I wanna flip flop the two..Castro at thirdbase wouldn't hit for enough pop so if I move him i'd want him at 2nd that way he'll at least still be giving SS/2B type numbers , but if he goes to third and only gives u .280 with 12-14 HRs that's not good thirdbase numbers at all, solid for 2nd but not 3B
i really think they'll move Baez, i dunno why the media or a lot of Cubs fans want Castro out..i get it at times i do but still the guy is like what 25 and a 3 time allstar?

Yea I been saying the bolded for a minute.Baez shortened his swing up and he's hitting .296 at triple a right now manny ramirez been working with him for about a year and a half he's showing more patience and plate discipline this season but that won't matter if it don't translate to the bigs.Cubs basically telling him do it for a sustained period and he'll be called up again,defensively I think he's better than castro and russell from what I've seen.
I don't know I'm 50-50 on it.I want to see how baez looks in another call up he has star potential but If he can potentially be a piece in a trade that can get the cubs a pitcher like syndergard,matz or even de grom It would be hard to turn that down.Theo has a decision to make soon

i think the Nationals could be a sleeper trade partner, they have 6 legit starters plus Giolito in the minors who's a top 5 overall minor league prospect...Nats don't have a true SS/2B prospect in their system outside of Trea Turner who can't get officially move until after the draft. but if i'm the Cubs i'd rather visit the Nats than the Mets...i think the Nats have way more proven arms.
i think the Mets are in love with all their young arms and rightfully so, i think it's gonna take a lot to get any of them away.
