Soler to my eye looks like he may have the highest offensive potential (haven't seen Bryant at all, disclaimer) of all the highly touted Cub prospects, he can hit, has enormous power, and can run.

Plus Len said he "looks for outs in right field." I guess that's opposed to other right fielders who look to pick daisy's.

Out of Soler and Baez, right now i would guess that Soler is going to have a better career. You simply cannot strikeout 45% of the time. Even Mark Reynolds never struck out in the Majors or Minors more than 33% of the time.

soler
baez
valbuena
castillo
alcantara

Trade baez for pitching...

this team next year with a Cueto or Porcello or scherzer is 85 plus wins.

The fact that Epstoyer foisted Darwin fucking Barney on Cubs fans for 4 months this year is really pissing me off now.

They were just hoping he would do something so they could trade him for anything. I can understand that approach.

Huh ? Why even sign that bum to the 1 year deal to begin with
...Baez should have 400 mlb at bats by now.

And he'd have struck out in 259 of them. They knew. If you don't understand, then you're an idiot.

He seems very calm, cool and collected and not intimidated at all by MLB.

Looks like a keeper even if only a super sub.

Fuck the shark....I want em to spend huge this offseason on pitching ...a big FU to that pretender .


So what if he is going to K @ a ridiculous rate..he's going to do that in the Minors or the Bigs for the rest of his career...if you can't understand that n thought Barney was a viable option ..you are the idiot.

Where did I say Barney was a viable option? I was trying to explain to you why he was on the roster.
