It is the very definition of strawman when I say how Chavez is used up and he counters with, "we'll, the Cubs' 3Bs are awful." I'm talking about Chavez. He cannot stay healthy. If the goal is to build a playoff contender/WS championship team, I would not want someone for whom 300 PA's and 16...
I'm newer here, so I haven't seen all your posts from when you joined. That being said, do you ever post anything constructive; or are all your posts telling people how wrong their opinions are compared to your own?
I have never said Valbuena or Stewart are any good. I just said Chavez is always hurt- which therefore makes him unreliable. For someone who says "strawman" a lot, you sure do use it a lot in your arguments.
On what planet did Eric Chavez show last year that he was still a good hitter with something left in the tank? He showed the same thing he's shown us for the past 6 years- he's injury-prone.
I never said Isn Stewart was awesome. I'm just saying Chavez is injured AGAIN- he had sucked the past 5 years now? And you tools are saying he's the answer to the Cubs' 3rd base woes lol.

Going back, i see he was referring to Sori in '06 when the Cubs signed him. and yes i think it was a ridiculous contract then too. At...
I'd like to see a 1-game suspension for every flop after the first one (first one is a warning). Or even an increasing scale i.e. two games for second suspension, 3 for third, etc.
I don't see how the Cavs getting swept by San Antonio back in '07 is a negative for LeBron. There is no other player in history who would've made the Finals with his "supporting" cast that year. His numbers would be 1-1 and 6-5 without that miracle Finals appearance. The Cavs 2007 run would...
