OT: Other Sports 80

[Ben Grimm]

Well said

Agreed, but I look at the bright side. If you'd told us in 1985 that all 5 teams would win a title, we would have laughed in your face, but all 5 teams did it.

WOW.



Giants pulled offer after a failed physical.

 

[HeisenBaez]

WOW.



Giants pulled offer after a failed physical.

That Judge/Correa era in San Fran is finally over.

Seriously how pissed are the giants fans?

 

[Sarava]

I'm jealous of Steve Cohen's spending spree...does he have a son or something that can buy the Sox?

What in the world. That’s a crazy turn of events.

Root for a ex wife

They should be happy

Correa deal is going to age poorly

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

It's crazy that somebody failed a physical for a three hundred million dollar contract and another team was like nah that's fine here you go.

I heard Tua's doctors cleared his physical.

Cubs sign dansby Swanson. 7 years $177 million

I think $177M of pitching would have helped the Cubs more.

Who would’ve they gotten?

Giants got cold feet and found an excuse out. The issue they used predates his major league career.

In time they will be happy not to have that noose around their necks but today they are pissed.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Cubs sign catcher Tucker Barnhart one year deal worth $6.5 million

 

[plasmonresonance]

Bulls got payback from Atl who beat them with 0.5 sec left in their last meeting. Last night, Ayo got an offensive rebound and put it back in leaving no time on the clock and the Bulls a winner in Atl.

[Kaners Bald Spot]

Who would’ve they gotten?

Rodon

 

[Mrfenn92]

Rodon

Lot of money for a guy who has trouble staying healthy

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Major overpay by Jays IMO

Could have landed a big fish

Chris Bassitt (3 yrs/$66M with Blue Jays)

Or these guys who were good potential targets of high ceiling with affordable costs

Noah Syndergaard (1 yr/$13M with Dodgers)
Ross Stripling (2 yrs/$25M with Giants)
Jose Quintana (2 yrs/$26M with Mets)

Those 4 combined cost only $130M

The Cubs should have spent more isn't an argument Cubs fans make.

 

[Sarava]

^ They weren't saying they should have spent more. They were saying use the Dansby money on pitching.

I'm saying the Cubs shouldn't be an either or franchise.
