Terrible when a team tanks like this. Embarassing to the sport.

As you are a pricipled fellow, 'm sure you said the same about the Cub the past decade.

The Cubs rebuilt, they didn't tank.

I thought you were just playing dumb, but you are actually stupid.

The Cubs didn't tank, they made a strategic move to target young controllable players. Hell, they were hard in on Darvish just a year into the rebuild. There really were no major young position players(star players) that became free agents when Theo took over due to teams getting smart and locking up young talent and buying out arb years. The only example I can think of is Pujols/Fielder and I think he made the right call trading for Rizzo.

I highly doubt Theo would have traded the likes of Sale/Qunintana, had he inherited such players.

The Cubs tanked from 2011-2014. Nobody except you would even attempt to deny this.

Nope they rebuilt. They were hard in on Darvish when he was posted in 2012. Tanking teams don't throw that kind of money at free agents. Thanks for playing.

Tanked.

genius.

Tanking teams add young international free agents all the time. It's impossible to argue the 2011-2014 Cubs were not tanking. Just stop

I was gonna bring up Robert but decided not to because his inevitable response would be to say Yu was major league ready but it's already a dumb enough argument without that.

So because the Cubs supposedly put in a bid on one free ajent, they weren't tanking. Seems legit.

Hey, at least he's contributing on a big league roster, we dodged a bullet when the Sux took AAA Fulmer instead of him.

Arrieta gonna no hit us. Goddamnit.

This is a frighteningly impotent lineup

They will only win games with luck or catching teams on an off night the rest of this year

Can't hit, can't field . . . but just watch Shields work his magic! You just know he's gonna wiggle out of this.

Rizzo is going to hit this ball 9 miles.

Shit's about to get ugly

So refreshing to see a GM rebuild without tanking. Btw, any number of the Cubs center fielders would have had that Rizzo triple. If you want to try and emulate the "Cubs way" start by caring about defense.

He hit that ball so hard it stuck in the wall.
