Even with a bad streak their starters still can stand equal with anyone as can their offense. Put a bullpen with that and see what happens.

I don't think it is entertaining to see or hear someone upset about their favorite team acquiring someone who has been involved in domestic abuse. Especially someone who has been raped.

While Chris Sale's move was stupid, it is no where near the level of a guy who beats his wife, does drugs, drives drunk, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSoxFanMike Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 QUOTE (Tony @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 10:03 PM) Kaplan is approaching it wrong because he's a giant boob, but the idea isn't wrong. We are root for the jersey, not really the player. Chapman seems like a giant piece of garbage, but damn can he throw hard. We are all sports fans. We all witnessed 2005 (aside from Mike who I think was like 2 when it happened. ). When "your guys" are winning playoff series, you're not thinking "Well I'm really happy about this but I wish Chapman wasn't on my team right now...." Cubs fans may be having a hard time with it right now. Once he puts on that jersey and records that first save, no one will be thinking about the DV charges from the off-season. Does that make it right? No. But Theo and Jed know they'll take a PR hit now. If they win the whole thing and Chapman records the save, you think there is a writer in this town that is going to minimize the Cubs 1st WS because of Chapman's past? Please. I was 6, thank you very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
