Quin Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 2, 2016 -> 12:23 PM) That would be crazy if Heyward played poorly enough that he didn't opt out and actually played out the full 8 seasons in Chicago. Just always expected him to be gone in 3, still assuming that happens. I'd die laughing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buehrle>Wood Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Pretty sure currently all 15 AL teams have as many or more wins vs teams that were .500 or better last year than the Cubs. That's an amazingly bad schedule for the Cubs. And the NL is just also amazingly bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were wearing wacky suits yesterday. Heyward will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ May 2, 2016 -> 11:38 AM) Until money is an object there are no bad contracts with them same as NY and Boston. At this point money is no object. It's finally catching up to the Yankees and the Sox are stuck with Fat Panda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteSoxfan1986 Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Jason Hammel is shutting the Pirates down and David Ross keeps coming up with big hits. They're a great team, but it just seems like everything imaginable is going their way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 105 isn't out of the question, but predicting anything higher than that is a stretch. Bottom line, they'll probably be the 1-seed in the NL, and we'll hope to watch them lose in October for quite a few years to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
