Bah, I invented "TWEET THAT" and 80% of the posters in that Shoutbox, not to mention 75% of the inexplicable memes that are now attached to the rest of you.

Anyone who says otherwise is probably just some asshurt voiceover artist.

When you learn to deliver a 30 second spot so that your voice decays out at 29.5 on the button, let me know what you'd prefer to be called.

#Cubs trade Marmol to Dodgers for RHP Matt Guerrier. Dodgers get Cubs' No. 4 intl  slot. Cubs get Houston's 2, 3 slots for Ronald Torreyes

Good news, folks, as relayed by Len and JD: America's favorite kid is back in the big leagues.

Minor league pitcher?  Not an international free agent bonus slot?  Epstink is terrible.

Actually sounds like a pretty solid prospect.

Cubs will get Class A right-hander Ivan Pineyro in return, and the team confirmed the deal Monday morning.

Pineyro, a 21-year-old native of the Dominican, has registered a 3.24 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 72/22 K/BB ratio in 77 2/3 innings (15 starts) this season between Low-A Hagerstown and High-A Potomac. It's a pretty nice get for the Cubs, who continue to bolster their farm system.  He'll report to Class-A Daytona.

I see Thrill covered this already, so I'll just fuck my own FACE off.

Goddamn this thread.

From what I can gather, Al Yellon Tweeted that the Cubs should sign Francoeur. People made fun of Al and Francoeur for awhile. When the Giants signed Francoeur it immediately became time to post.

Yeah, I came across that later (I scroll bottom up when I'm catching up here and it keeps "burning me" apparently.) 

But still...fuck.
