This doesn't really matter now with the rosters expanding, but after 4-5 games of Rizzo being out, why didn't the Cubs just put him on the 15 day DL?

Not sure. I guess it was one of those "see how it is each morning" things and it went longer than they thought

I would trade him right now for Matt Davidson and courtney hawkins.

Oh...and that DBack from LSu kenny picked and promoted to AAA thinking someone else will think that guy is good because kenny sent him to AAA

Why would you give up on Rizzo so quick?

Even I haven't brought the White Sox into this thread today. Why do you care so much about Kenny's moves?

He's upset because Steve Stone knew more about Abreu and Rizzo by watching one at bat than he did after reading Baseball Prospectus for days.

He may have created a permanent record for Stone's best baseball thought ever.

I don't. I'm just wondering why you are a Cubs season ticket holder that is obsessed with Kenny Williams and the White Sox.

I guess at this point of the season you have to take your wins wherever you can find them.

That seems to be the theme of baseball discussion here for the past month.

What are you talking about?

Still plenty of time for Abreu's OPS to go down.

"Jose Abreu will be a far superior player to Anthony Rizzo in time."

That time is today.

Plenty of people declared it over before. Our fearless leader certainly did.

Rizzo had a higher OPS than Abreu some time in July. I already declared it over at that time. Rizzo won.

edit: It was 6/27

Attaboy Rizzo!

That would make sense. The Cubs didn't start trying to win until 6/27.

Both now injured. The simialrities continue.

Except one organization shuts the guy down and the other keeps offering it up as an excuse.

Anyone who thought Rizzo could hang with Abreu is a retard, and they don't know shit about Baseball .

You do remember that you are 312player, correct? I don't think you can make those judgements.
