Cubs missed on trading Schwarber when his value was undeservedly high

Now he's a platoon dh forced to play lf and hitting less than .200
People thought he'd be an MVP candidate this year lol

He's a racist too

Bryce Harper is down as fuck. I love it.
 
 
He could be the star that baseball needs. He's a great player and he's not a robot like Trout.

Trout is headed to the dl rip. I think that's his first major injury as well.

Pretty sure he's established that at this point. Trout is still the better player, but Bryce is far more marketable than Trout.

Bryce will be more marketable as a dodger or especially a Yankee

Only because Trout cares more about the game than endorsements

True, but do you think either team lays out $400 million for 10 years?

He is just a really boring dude. Great player, best player of our generation, but boring as hell

Yep.
 
 
He might be the most boring star of all time in any sport. Like even Tim Duncan's boringness was kinda entertaining, Trout's personality is just generic.

Absolutely mind-blowing that Jose Reyes (hitting .202 in 178 at bats) is batting 2nd in the lineup every day.

40 million a season for Harper? That'd be screwed up lol. I would never want my team to offer one player on a 25 man team that... and at that length too. Just not worth it lol.

cmon man
Sold high on kemp and got grandal who is probably the 2nd best nl C behind posey
 
Im just saying I really liked Kemp and he wasnt a problem in the clubhouse. They couldve gotten Grandal and more for Puig as well. Idk it wouldve been nice to have seen Kemp have a complete career just with the Dodgers, it was just a really nice fit.
