I'm still cool with this happening.

Both for the Cubs and just to see this place burn down.
I can't believe I even know these people. I'm ashamed of my internet life.

I think you'll be disappointed. 
Just a sloppy, undisciplined team.  Garbage.

Some random dude on Twitter is tweeting at anyone and everyone that his friend knows Snork or whatever and the Cubs are going to announce at 4/$65 mil deal this week:

I'm mostly posting it to antagonize Bort, not because I really believe it.

Every time I see new posts on this thread, I feel a sense of dread because it may meen that Samardzija has signed. Not that he'd be a terrible signing in general, but 4 years is way too much, and I'd much rather the Cubs announce a better signing first. Or soon thereafter, I hope.
M'lady.

His conversation with AL has the making of something truly special.  HE WANTS DETAILS DAMNIT!

Conversely, I would be pretty happy with 4/65 for Snork.

4 weeks, $65.00 would be great.

My favorite was that guy having to explain to Al the ins and outs of how DMs work.

But yes, I agree that 4/$65 would be a nice value for Shark, especially if you buy the idea that Cooper messed him up and Bosio can fix him.

The only way this deal is good for the Cubs is if there's a guarantee Bosio is here for the entirety of it.

He rejected 5/$85mil in 2014 and we're to believe that after one subpar season that he's willing to take less than that to come back? If that's true and his inflated sense of his own value has taken that type of hit, then most of my real issues with Snork would be taken care of. But I don't believe this shit for one fleeting second.

I've been vocal in my criticism of his ,*ahem*, "thoughts" on baseball before, but they seem to be getting even deliberater, more pulled and increasingly arsey.

Somebody could offer him more money, or maybe he wants a managing gig?

But if the Cubs are going to invest that kind of dough based upon a pitcher's success with a pitching coach, shouldn't they also protect the investment by giving Bosio a deal to match in terms of length?
