Shows how deep the Sox system is when a #1 pick fails with it having no impact on the system.

Great job Hahn

Be careful with the Happ Hype. Before the season started you also thought Schwarber was good.

No, I only maintained that he hasn't lost any of his power stroke, which he hasn't.

No, you thought he was good. There's more than just that one thread with Rick to point to. No big deal, just saying things change fast for these young guys

Kyle still has a puncher's chance at 30 home runs. But let's not derail this thread..its not about the Cubs, it's about how shitty Carson Fulmer is!

He must've taken something around the AS break to "help" him finish out the season. That's understandable.

Still, he was the third starter to open the season and after 23 starts he has a .1 fwar, 4.67 ERA, and 5.50 Fip. I don't think I was too far off.

This means nothing. He was their "4th" best starter on opening day. Do you think he was ranked higher,in anyone's mind, than the 2016 ERA champ?

So is Fulmer pitching a sign of tanking or a sign of trying to win games?

10 to go, say it with me, 10 to go. (I'm counting his Iowa homeruns too)

I don't even know what that means. You already lost this argument badly. You should probably just stop.

I'm really sorry that the White Sox rebuild isn't working out. It's too bad.

Lots of Cubs fans caring about a Sox game today.

Remember, Cubs fans are superior baseball fans. We pay attention to the entire league, not just one team.

You can't be serious. Your boy Bob is using minor league stats to try to justify his prediction to Rick.

No, you see, this is what makes it so great. We don't have to argue. The number was set before the season. It was 34 home runs and I was wrong. I didn't even set the number. Caller Bob did. I am 100% certain you posted multiple times in the thread too.

I knew that you guys would declare victory no matter how horrible his season went(and getting sent down to the minors would certainly qualify) so instead I made it a very simple number that I didn't even set.

I understand you guys wanting to ignore that though.

What Bob said has no bearing on Rick's bad argument.

Where were you with this prior to the season when it was clearly defined?

We stipulated 34 home runs in 2017. It was never stipulated they all had to be at one level. Trying to change the rules when it's looking bad for you. #Sad.

Of course it does. It's the sole reason they've been going back and forth all year on the Schwarber power thing
