So being top ten in WAR over a four year period is not a top pitcher?  #3?  I need a change of clothes I laughed so hard.

Gotta get this quoted before it gets erased.  LOL

Perhaps I missed it but I don't see anyone calling Joe a genius

A bet most would take over and over and over again.  For all the bad outings they were still right there with the top 20-25 pitchers in the game.  And again, that's not counting Hendricks.

Would love to have seasons like those three had on my team or any team for that matter.  Stop with the headlines would be my advice

Heck no, it hurts a ton to say nice things about the Cubs, but if I can only pick one, I am a baseball fan first.

To date there is no indications that those three won't be consistent and that ignores arguably the team's most consistent pitcher in Kyle Hendricks.  I think an argument can be made that the Cubs won the offseason.

It's a question mark, but other teams have just as many if not more.  And the bullpen really has improved a lot.

Puts the Cubs right there with any team in baseball

So what's the story with David Wright?

Again based on WAR he definitely is.

Given his WAR yes

The reason why we are in this slowness is a poor FA class butting up a tremendous FA class.  A penalty line that the big spenders are avoiding.  Many teams going to rebuild models instead of buying their way to a playoff spot.   Not seeing anything about Boras there.

As do many agents, but the myth that Boras controls things is blatantly false.  His biggest clients routinely "push" Boras around.

Boras is doing no such thing.  He works for his clients and it's his clients saying they want more. 

Ladies and Gentlemen, My Name is Paul Heyman, and I open all three hours of RAW with my clients.  (put that on a loop for three hours and you might have better RAW ratings)

great story.  he seems so humble too

You can have one piece of baseball memorabilia, what is the one piece you would want displayed in your home?   For me it's George Brett's pine tar bat.

Bam!  :)

I think the numbers are wrong.  660 million for 16 games is 41.25 million per game, right?
