OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

Can't wait until people are hyperventilating about his horrible K rate and low OBP when he's in single A.

Baseball is better when Theo can sign late rounders for millions over slot. FYBS&JR

You'll change your tune when the Cubs sneak into the postseason on the back of a one-game wild card playoff win.

THIS TIME IT COUNTS!

I'm having a hard time following what people are so butthurt about on Twitter. From what I can gather?

1. Cubs sign Soler
2. Cubs fans who I can't identify because I try not to follow morons on Twitter, think Soler is a LOCK for awesomeness.
3. Reasonable Cubs fans get butthurt.

Is there something wrong with having a positive about this signing? Who the fuck cares if there are idiots with unreasonable expectations?

Those idiots will pressure the front office by calling Epstink and demanding that Soler be rushed to the majors to save the season.

Just predicting, not indicating who I like.  I think there are going to be some big free agents signed post 2013. Jones, Cano and McCann are on that list and would, based on today's roster, would fill big holes.
