Please Kyle Schwarber, stay healthy so Nas can pay me all the money he is gonna owe me for the bust that you are. I don't want FavreFan to have all the fun.

I just hope Maddon keeps sending him out there so he can make his 120 game eligibility for our bet!

This is the one I've feared and thankfully he's made it easier on me lately.

34 home runs may be tough.

I'm just hoping he drops to .195 so I can grab the extra sawbuck. :lol:

Batting leadoff really hurt him mentally. He's battled back nicely since his demotion and he's been better in the outfield than I thought he could be.

Now I just have to win your league to cancel out my miscalculations.

If he ends up somewhere around .190/.300/.425 for the year, is there any chance he's left off the playoff roster?

He'll have a nice playoff run and be the greatest again.

Let's hope so. We should get together to watch the playoffs. You can wear your favorite Cub jersey around me, and I won't say a thing.

He's making great catches and throwing people out at the plate. He could barely catch last year.

He's stumbling around like a beer league softball player.

He has flubbed no less than 10 plays in the outfield this season. If Total Bags Against was a stat for outfielders...bags given up via error or mishandling hops, he would be at a -20 or worse. He turns singles into doubles and doubles into triples. He is so bad out there that third base coaches can send runners to home before the ball is fielded because there is a 20% chance Kyle cannot even pick up the ball on first attempt.

He won a game with his glove and his arm recently. If you don't think he's improved you're not watching.

He has also tried to throw somebody out at right field.

I watch every game and you know that. :lol:

:lol:

He has thrown two runners out recently, and one of those was because he fucked up fielding the ball and the other team was getting greedy taking extra bases.

I know I'm going to come out of left field with this crazy thought, but Nas and jimmy... it doesn't work like that.

Cubs fans aren't required to give players, management or coaches a pass in 2017. Do you want the team to grow complacent? I don't.

If this is what Schwarber is... then you trade him in the offseason. You won't "lose" 2016. You don't need to play a lesser player in 2017 and beyond because he had 20 good plate appearances in one series in 2016.

Of course I do. He sucked before being demoted. That being said I'll always love the guy for his WS performance.
