wow, this is the most pessimism I've ever seen. It's the sixth inning of a game in april that we're losing by two.

 

Is Glendon fat and crappy? Yes.

Is our manager incompetent? Yes.

Are we done for the season? Of course not.

 

This is ridiculous.

 

I'm all for dumping JJ in a dumpster outside of the stadium though.

The Cubs suck, I won't truely think they hav a shot at the World Series until the entire organization is washed clean. They need new ownership, new front office all the way down to the manager, hell even change the uniforms and get rid of Wrigley Field.

 

I think we should burn down Chicago and sacrifice all our current players to various gods.

Does anybody else get the feeling that the Cubs are abit demoralize after losing Lee for 2 months? I know Dusty call a team meeting to get this team refocused, but this team still seem to be very dependant on Lee, especially Ramirez.

 

This is why the Cubs NEEDED a VOCAL LEADER. Someone who is willing to lead, and again this team is TOO quiet, when it comes to leadership.

 

You could be correct. Last night it looked like everybody was feeling sorry for themself, including Len and Bob.

 

However, good teams overcome injuries. This is why many of us wanted another big bat either in the outfield or on the bench. Instead we got Jaque and bench full of utility players.

 

Nevertheless, They need to buck up and play good smart baseball.

 

If the cubs fall apart I will blame Dusty and not injuries. When these things happen, and they do to all teams, it is the manager's job to get the team going.

 

Double swithcing Walker in the 6th for Neifi isn't going to get it done.

so, they're never going to win a title?

 

Yup it's all over - I wouldn't be suprised if mlb just shut them down for good. Or maybe then they would move the Marlins here?

Well, the Cardinal bullpen is weak, three or more runs off it is not impossible...

 

with this lineup? Please.

 

Plus dusty thought it was necessary to switch out our best hitter.

 

Thanks. :roll:

 

Pujols seems like a stand-up guy but I'm still harboring hope that he's really 33 right now.

Don't worry, he'll get a stern talking to. He should know that nothing good can happen by walking with 2 outs.

is glendon going to be in the starting rotation the rest of the year? yes

will dusty be our manager the rest of the year? yes

will jones be playing right field the next three years? more probable than not

 

it's not ridiculous. it's bad. look at the team on the field and tell me you think they can win.

yeah, but we are going to have to invent a few new gods, cauze the current ones hate us

Of course the Cubs are going to win some games but many of us were skeptical we had enough talent before the season started and that was before we found out we wouldn't have Prior starting the year now with Lee out its getting tough to stay optimistic.

At this point it doesn't appear so, its uncanny how whenever there's the slightest glimmer of hope, something blows-up.

God I can't stand it when the Cubs play like this. Figures that I didn't even see their successful games BDI (Before Derrek Injured).

These things don't happen to all teams. How many starts did White Sox pitchers miss last year? How about Cardinals pitchers? How many injuries other than Jeter/Huckaby and Giambi's steroids infection have the Yanks dealt with since 2001? Other than Schill's bloody sock, what serious problems has Boston had in the last couple of years?

 

These things DON'T happen to all teams. 6-foot-6 man-children do not get their wrists fractured by people who are smaller than my 13-year-old brother. It just doesn't happen.

Barrett's not starting in a day game after a night game.

 

Catchers do need rest; I'm not faulting Dusty on that one.

 

I'll fault Dusty and Hendry on the construction of the team, though. We needed a bat in RF and we got Jacque Jones.
