Heyward looked awful this afternoon.

Les Grobstein's huge hog is proof that God has a sense of humor, isn't it?

I did a wallpaper job in Glencoe for Andrew Berlin last week. He is a part owner of the Cubs, The White Sox, as well as owning (outright) the Cubs class A affiliate in South Bend, Indiana. I talked to him about the Cubs a couple times while doing the work there. One day, we talked for over a half hour. Interesting guy. An attorney, Owned a packaging company he sold last year for 1.4 Billion. The guy LOVES Baseball. He had Glyber Torres in South Bend and agreed that he will be a special player. An All-Star multiple times. He says the same about Eloy Jimenez. Going to plan a trip to South Bend to see a couple games there this summer. I stand by my statement about Chapman and Torres. Torres was too much to give up for a 2 month rental. They could have won it with someone else who would not have cost as much and perhaps done an even better job.

Biden is doing a GOOD job.

[Fields will] be the starting QB on an NFL roster at the start of next season. Book It!

There will never be an effective vaccine. I'll never get one anyway.

Who the fuck still does wallpaper in their house?

I don't give a fuck if Torres turns into a HOF'er. The trade was justified by the WS win. To think otherwise is moronic.

I have MANY years of experience in trying to appreciate steaming piles of dogshit.

This is really the only answer. Especially with someone who was in low A who doesn't have a place to play on this roster.

Soler starting out a Heywardesque 0-14 with the Royals. Also don't care if he becomes a star.

If you hate Laurence, then don't listen - don't comment. When he co-hosts the B&B show, take that day off ... listen to an old podcast of a Bernstein solo show and jerk off all day.

Good to see if you hire Steve you can trust he won't tell the world about what he did for you.

Soler's ceiling is nowhere near as high. Trading him made perfect sense. Not a good outfielder and not a good base runner and gets hurt too often. The Cubs will win another World series in the next few years. Maybe a couple. Then, you will see how Heyward was not a critical piece. Hell, he really wasn't that great in the World Series, though Madden shares blame for that. Could have won it with another closer that would not have cost them Torres.

I wouldn't say that I wouldn't give a fuck. I would be annoyed if becomes A-Rod 2.0 and the Cubs missed having him. I can never be mad about it though. I got to see the promised land. That's bigger than one players career, regardless of how good he becomes.

AROD is a bad comp as he can never had a pedigree that high. Torres doesn't even have the pedigree of Russell yet and we got him for Shark and Hammel. The only 2 pitchers that could truly impact the cubs chances played for the Yankees. Sucks to lose them but that is a trade they had to make.

You don't know they couldn't have done it with another close. You don't know if they couldn't have done it with guys they already had. Yes, we know they did it with the spousal abuser. But its possible they could have done it with someone else. I would not have given up Torres. Not for a rental.

It was leather , Rick. That's right , leather.

And we don't know what another closer would have cost either. Miller was not a cheap get for Cleveland. Cubs won. Its all that matters now. Wasn't a huge fan of the trade but they won.

Miller was going to cost Schwarber, so they declined that one. Lots of other teams to deal with. Hell, could have gotten Papelbon for a low prospect. Might be a head case, but he got the job done for them in Boston and they still could have waved goodbye to him after the series if they didn't want to keep him around.

Counting on Papelbon? Fuck, Lee Smith was available to.. Christ..
