    Sounds like he has knowledge on advanced statistics. There's nobody better to pair him with than Len. I'm really anxious to hear these guys.

    Can we please do something exciting this off season? I was really hoping for a fan favorite for this like Plesac, Grace, or Sutcliffe. Oh well.

    OOTP TKO League Milwaukee Brewers 2010-2032:
    2011-1655, .549 Win %
    10 NL Central Titles, 2 Wild Card 12 Total Playoff Appearances
    1 World Series Title (2021)



    Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty floral bonnet: I will end you.

    Most felt the same after Kasper was hired...Brenly too come to think of it... Deshaies is a perfect fit for Len and this organization as a whole- youngish broadcaster with tons of pop culture info and borderline saber head... You'll grow to love him...

    Could be, but this team has just been so boring. There's literally nothing to get excited about, not even rumors.

    You suffering from Mako poisoning? **** you do with the Str1fe5 we know and love? Boring is pacing back and forth in the Sunken Gelnika using Morph materia. You want a rumor? Here.

    At first I didn't like Len and Bob, but they grew on me. Hopefully the same happens.

    SMH. Those all would have been NIGHTMARE hires (for various reasons). Absolute nightmares.

    Plesac is an annoying spaz. Grace is an ignorant drunk. Sutcliffe is a meatball (who is also a liability to be drunk on air).

    Jim Deshaies: "I believe in advanced metrics." #Cubs

    Deshaies says challenge of sabermetrics on [broadcasts] is to "put it in context and help explain the game to people." Len does this well. #Cubs
