oh, please not fowler again. He delivered in contract years. Came back on a prove it deal for 4 million less than the qualifying offer they gave him, just plain stunk outside of contract years.
Theo's unprepared presser was pretty enlightening. in the second half, their record when they scored 2 or more runs was 37-13. Wow. That does leave 31 games in the second half they scored 1 or no runs.
Addison took the 40 game suspension, retroactive, when a reporter asked if he had a conversation with addy yet about not being truthful back last year about this, I thought I saw fire in theo's eyes.
Theo said there is no rift between he and Maddon other than the healthy not agreeing with everything each other say, not wanting a yes man anyway. As far as reading something into no extension for Maddon, he will be 65 next year. How much longer do you think he wants to do this.
Said it will be a few days after internal discussions about the coaches. Says he does not like to change every year. Could not figure out why the club led the league in all the important offensive categories in the first half if there was a coaching issue. He also said, which I find extremely hard to believe, that the cubs led the league in opposite field hits. All I remember is pulling into the shift.
Lure Rossy away from ESPN, have him Joes Bench coach this year, take over next year if Joe wants to retire.
How many walks would Javy need to take to be the leadoff guy?
