For some reason, I checked Anthony Rizzo's stats at Iowa this year.  He has 22 HR's already.  So, like, that's cool and stuff I suppose.

Who's Anthony Rizzo? Haven't heard of him.

He's the guy that got Rudy fired.

Is he any good?

According to Twitter he is.  

He's Bryce Harper with double the HGH.

So will Cole Hamels bean him with double the intensity then?
This is so bad, I'd root for the Orioles over this fucking team, but I can't. Because they're a fucking drug and you can't kick it and they'll never win anything and they'll always suck, but it'll always be sunny at Wrigley and there will be tits and ivy and an old scoreboard and fucking Chads.

And Rizzo will steal home twice on the same play.

According to Ben Badler there's a significant baseball scandal that is going to break at some point today. It could be bad and it very well could involve the Cubs and/or Soler.

Can't wait.

If you can't get worked up over a good paperwork scandal...you're probably not Gil Gunderson.

You're really determined to not be happy about this Soler signing.
