Does this guy have any kids to just say “Dad. Chill out.”

Hambone!

He’s also my favorite color.

Their stated due diligence consisted or “research, reports … and all the information we’ve gathered.” There are reports that another team administered a polygraph test, and he passed.

Cubs do not have a strong history of winning, and yet, 2011-2014 was one of the worst stretches in their history, including 2012 when they lost 101 games. Those seasons turned into top 10 picks Baez, Almora,…
