2016 MLB Postseason Thread

Theo's going to have to pay the shit out of Hendricks next year.

 

Or trade him.

 

Because they couldn't give Bumgarner both the win and the save. Assuming Lester doesn't finish, he gets the win.

 

EDIT he isn't even arbitration-eligible. He'll get the minimum if they want.

 

Would you try to get one more inning out of Lester?

 

Saved

 

I think Chapman, Coghlan and Ross (who is retiring) are the only pending free agents on the Cubs' postseason roster.

For the Indians, it's just Crisp, Napoli and Rajai Davis.

In other words, these teams might be in the mix for a while.

 

Bob "Death to Flying Things" Ferguson would be accused by the Internets of being a bird killer. Or a plane bomber.

(He was a mid-19th century player who was good at catching fly balls, which, in that gloveless era, was actually a major skill, hence his nickname.)

 

He isn't even arbitration eligible the next two years. The Cubs can just renew him at any salary they want above the minimum

 

Cannonball Titcomb would have been urged to change his name ... both of them.

 

Yeah, Arrieta's the guy due a huge raise.

 

Dummy Hoy and Dummy Taylor would be signed to endorsement deals by the "For Dummies" book publisher.
