The Cubs sent 10 batters to the plate and scored 6 runs in their first spring training inning. The Cubs are BACK.

Adam Wainwright and Nelson Cruz both retired, right? Rich Hill is technically a free agent, so he is the only MLB player older than I am.

bawfuls posted:Baseball has so many micro-events to bet on now it's ripe with opportunities. I was at a game at Wrigley with my buddy who was making micro-bets. He meant to place a bet that Bellinger would get a hit this PA, but accidentally bet that he would get a hit on the next PITCH. Welp, Belli slapped the next pitch for a single and he made enough to pay for beers for both of us the rest of the game.

Sydin posted:I was gifted The Baseball 100 which I've been enjoying very much, something of a history lesson of MLB told through 100 of the greatest players of all time. I don't agree with all of the rankings necessarily but the prose is consistently interesting and - very importantly - the author correctly believes that Ichiro is the true hits king and not Rose. I'm already angry at whichever rear end in a top hat BBWAA writer decides to leave Ichiro off the ballot for publicity

I've lived in Chicago, Boston, and Los Angeles, and Giants/Dodgers was SO much more mean-spirited than Cubs/Cards and Yankees/Red Sox. They loving HATE each other.

"You have to C it" is the Cubs' slogan this year. Just begging to be changed to "You hate to C it." Probably still better than "That's Cub" though.

The man went from Rookie of the Year, to winning four rings and making four All-Star games, to a guy who literally could not throw the ball to first base. Rick Ankiel goes in-depth in his book about his struggles with The Yips. It's a fascinating psychological phenomenon.
