Cubs' Prospects FUTUREBONER thread

[CT III]

Yesterday marked the 4th straight game that Javier Baez has collected 2 hits in a game.  Holding steady at .294/.366/.509 (.875 OPS) for the season at Iowa in 250 or so plate appearances.

Quick.  Trade him.  His value will never be higher than it is today.  Strike while his bat is hot.  A rolling stone gathers no moss.  Buy low, sell high.  54-40 or bust.  He who hesitates is lost.  something, something

Stew, as one of the resident history nerds here, I can't let your mistype one of America's greatest Presidential campaign slogans go uncorrected.  It is, of course, Fifty-Four Forty or Fight.

SIDEBAR: There are not enough good books about that time period. I have tried and failed several times to find a book about the Mexican War (and just the Mexican War, not the Mexican War thrown in as some bigger point someone is making about the Civil War) that was interesting.

Ask Trump. He's the expert.

Be nice. Stew can't be expected to remember something that happened when he was barely out of his teen years.

As the last surviving member of the Whig Party, Stew was opposed to the democrats and their expansionist plots anyway.

I wasn't that impressed with Polk.

3 hits, 1 walk, no K's yesterday. Now 12 for his last 23 with 2 walks and just 4 K's in that timeframe. K% at Iowa is now 24.7%. I feel like we should get him a cake or something for being under 25%. That feels like a big step for him.

Is there a specific interaction that led to this stance? I never paid attention to him unless he was tweeting about a Baez home run or something. But if there's a good Slaky Hate story I want to hear it, because those are usually pretty good.

Cut the man some slack. Without hookers, that guy would never get any.

Oh, my god.

And I will cut him some slack. As long as all the hookers were over 18, there is no reason this guy's pathetic life should be ruined.

I mean you're not wrong. Prostitution should probably be legal and good for him if that's how he's gonna get his shit broke off.

That said he's just a sad, boring turd on-line with no sense of humor so I don't like him based on that. I hope he doesn't get punched while he's in jail.
