That last line doesn't seem like it would be out of reach for him on a longer-term basis.  I'd be very happy with that.

I would hope anyone would be happy with that sort of line.

I deliberately didn't use the word "career", but I'd think we could expect that from Soler for, say, 2017 through 2025.

Look, some takes are easy. Let me know when we get someone with comps that line up to Tim Hosley and we'll talk.

I was lucky enough to attend tonight's game, and even luckier that our group ended up with some passes to go onto the field during batting practice. We saw the Cubs final couple of groups and I now completely understand how a scout can fall in love with a player.  The hitters were mostly just timing up pitches and taking what appeared nice, easy swings.  The difference between Soler and everyone else was that he was taking these effortless cuts and just smashing line drives that were landing 10-15 rows up in the left field bleachers.  I'm still a little hard just thinking about it.

Where'd ya sit?  That fading Internet Star Kermit came by my seats for a few innings.  If only Fork were there, too, we could've re-created the founding of Hockeenight.
Just a sloppy, undisciplined team.  Garbage.

Section 127, on the first base line towards the home plate end of the visitors dugout. 

Not sure you can really re-create the founding of Hockeenight without having Bobby Howry there to pee all over himself on the mound though.
