Cubs' Prospects FUTUREBONER thread

Here's a somewhat unrelated thought: if Fowler hadn't shocked us all and come back at the last minute, then the Schwarber injury would've felt a lot more catastrophic than it did at the time.

(Although, if Fowler hadn't come back, who's to say if that collision would've happened with Heyward? Or maybe it would've been even worse, with both Schwabe and Heyward injured?)

Interesting thought experiment. You should turn it in to a movie.

Thanks for the headers.  Really helps us understand what in the fuck we're looking at without having to deduce it otherwise.

Sorry, I thought we were all pretty familiar with how BR works.

The slash line is pretty easy to figure out.

That's pretty much what 22-year-old top college prospect should be doing in low A ball.

I remember last year when Pen was all excited about 40 year old, twice-divorced Ryan Williams giving it his all in A Ball and dominating some 16 year old kids. Now he's getting his shit rocked in AAA.

Having one shit outing out of 4 doesn't equate to getting his shit rocked, to be fair.

Okay, maybe some day he and his 89 mph fastball can come up and pitch four solid innings before he gets destroyed the third time through the order and we can spend years debating whether he's actually any good if he can't go past 5 innings but FIP and stuff.

[Canadouche]

Sounds like he could be the next Greg Maddux.

Speaking of, Greg's son Chase is pitching for UNLV beginning this year.

If Almora wants to keep hitting the ever-loving shit out of the ball that would be pretty awesome.

Also Vogelbach took out the "A" in the Principal Park sign on the video board with a massive dong. Good stuff.
