Cubs' Prospects FUTUREBONER thread

[Eli]

I'll just say if they've got the next Vlad Guerrero, Troy Glaus, Freddie Sanchez, Jose Vidro, and *randomly selects good but not historically great hitting catcher comp for Schwarber regardless of accuracy* Javy Lopez in the lineup they're gonna score a lot of fucking runs the next 5-6 years.

So then why get so butthurt over what they're doing right now? 

Because these games count too?

Don't do it, Eli. I let him stickpoke me so no one else needs take the bait. I am Desipio's lightning rod of Chad dumbassery.

Actually just based on minor league numbers Wieters does seem like the closer comp? Both walk more and hit for a better average than Young Napoli. But holy shit would I take either, provided the PenComp of Wieters doesn't doom Schwarber to a bunch of injuries.

Considering I don't think Schwarber sticks at catcher, both of these comps are wrong. 

He can be the next Carlos Lee.

Oh he'll stick at catcher. Stick his gold glove right up your ass.

So he'll get traded for Scotty Pods, and retire in 2012?

Did I do that right?

So he'll get jettisoned by the Sox for (in part) failing to hustle on a play at the plate by being dealt for Scotty Pods in the above-referenced deal and then subsequently hustling a little too hard in an opening weekend game against the Cubs (Lee's 5th as a Brewer) in attempting to break up a double play, thus knocking Todd Walker--whom Apex hated--out for months, and leaving us to wallow in dread with Jose Macias--whom Apex loved-- at the keystone, thus extending the 2005 season from the miserable end that was 2004 and leaving all of us suddenly amidst an all-around putrid sub-era that went on for 18 more months, made all the more bitter by how close they had actually come 18 months earlier?

Fuck you, Carlos Lee.

Ever?  Or in a long while?

Wasn't hard to reach into the well for that one.  That one felt good, been carrying it around for too long.  Too long.

Should we be paying attention to Jeremy Null? 8 IP, zero runs last night. Overall, 30.2 IP, 0.59 ERA, 26/1 K/BB, for South Bend.

In his professional career, he's pitched 46.2 IP with a 39/3 K/BB, 0.857 WHIP and has a 1.16 ERA

Yes.

If for no other reason than "Nulldozer" is the best nickname to come down the pike in a while.
