Or in the papers.

Price going to RedSox is a bit rich just because didn't he say he loved Toronto and wanted to play there? Well, you know what they say? Money talks and you know what walks.

He also liked Detroit very well, once he got acclimated.

I agree but you also have to have the talent and the Cubs are stock piling it. I really think Epstein is brilliant. He had a plan and stuck to it and it's starting to pay off.

I hate going into any season with really high expectations because I always seem to be disappointed so I hope this team doesn't repeat the past.

Talent is one variable but you need more than that to win it all. The most talented team does not always win.

Exactly, and I think the Cubs have that other variable. Just look at last year, lots of young players with little experience. Should be an exciting year.

Heres hoping that Theo Epstien can pull a Miracle out of his Hat !

I hope Any team can stick it to the Cardinals.I know Jason Heyward just did lol

 

[Scherrman]

If any of you dislike the Cardinals and use Twitter, you need to follow @bestfansinbaseball This guy retweets all the stupid comments Cards fans tweet out. I can't believe how upset many of them became when Heyward signed with the Cubs. He was only there for one year and it was because of a trade. Delusional fan base.

Dodgers' loss is the Yankees' gain.

Yankees do have quite a bullpen now .... if they can get to it.

Here is an interesting view on the Chapman trade.

This trade is ONLY a good trade if he doesn't go to jail.

I don't see that happening ...

 

[Scherrman]

Yankees are taking a risk. I give them some credit for having the balls to do it though.

It is a calculated risk even with the suspension factored in. They gave up very little for a potential guy that can turn their game to an 5 inning game for their starters.

In a perfect world.

Get a few more and you won't need a Starter.

I think this is a huge story and I am really curious what, if anything, MLB will do to the Cardinals.

I doubt anything major will happen.
