Julie posed this series of questions over at LOHO today. 1) Where does this team finish in the 2013 NL Central? 2) Do the 2013 Cubs lose 100 games? 3) What moves still need to be made to make this team competitive (and be realistic, no “sign ARod” or any of that baloney). The easy [...]

When looking for possible candidates for a 2013 fantasy baseball sleeper post, do you know how I found Jeff Samardzija? No, I didn’t look up the most difficult player names to spell. That might’ve have taken me to Samardzija. Not to mention, Saltalamacchia or Avisail Garcia. What the hell is an Avisail anyway? It sounds like a nautical GIF. (BTW, say Samardzija fast...

I guess good things happen when you are generally nice to people in forums and don’t act a fool on Facebook. You can follow me on twitter @MRubio52, I usually post Foodgram pictures, cry about Derrick Rose, and compare the Cubs and their players to various art...
