2007 Spring Training NOW WITH PICTURES thread

[David]

Yea, that looks like Marquis's old picture, too.

 

I don't think they're new.

[goonys evil twin]

they are all dressed differently suggesting its the photoshopping of Cubs unis onto their old pictures.

^^ I don't think so, the DeRosa picture was the same last year.

 

Maybe he just smiles the same. 8-)

 

For some reason DeRosa's smile reminds me of Buster Bluth from Arrested Development.

[BigSlick]

Oh My god, I'm rolling on the floor over the Marquis picture.

 

Does he try to look goofy? :lol:

heres some from picture day... http://editorial.gettyimages.com/search/Search.aspx?eventid=73311425&editorialProduct=2

 

 

Thanks! I'm hoping Yahoo! Sports or some other outlet gets a hold of them. The "Getty Images" name ruins the pics.

 

Buy one cheapskate! :D

 

Sadly, Photographers and companies have to do that thing because it is so easy to steal copyrighted images on the Web.

LOL, not me. 8-)

 

Actually, I plan to spend a good bit of money on the Cubs this year. I have a good feeling about this team!

Henry either looks suprised in that photo. . . . or he is in the process of farting. .

from this angle, Jim looks to have put back on all the weight we thought he lost

 

Ha, I was thinking the same thing but I am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. Those vertical stripes up close may be affecting the look versus the full length pic we had previously. I also questioned if this was new (taken today) or just newly released...

I don't know if this was mentioned... but those stripes are far from vertical. I believe that we call those stripes horizontal. :wink:

[Laura]

Maybe Hendry, like Einstein, has a closet full of the same outfit so he doesn't have to waste precious brain resources on merely being fashionable.

Soriano

 

Most awesomeness picture ever.

[Schwarber Fan]

Why are they wearing the regular striped uni's for a ST game?

 

BTW, Alfonso looks AWESOME

[cl smooth]

these pictures make me happy, except the one where soriano whiffed. granted, he'll probably do that around 150-160 times this year, but i didn't want to see a picture of him doing that so early in the spring. :D

 

good to hear pat and ron on the radio, as well. regular season is just around the corner!

Most awesomeness picture ever.

 

Agreed...but I don't remember him having that high of a leg lift on his swing...don't some suggest that that leads to slumps?

I went to the Boston/Toronto game yesterday but have no means of uploading my pics right now. I'll post them when I get back. Unfortunately, it was a split squad for Boston, so the only "starter" quality guys they had were Wily Mo Pena and Eric Hinske. Ortiz, Varitek, Ramirez, Drew, Youkalis were all at the other game. Toronto started Wells, Rios and Overbay though, with Halladay getting the start.

 

BTW, Eric Hinske's wife has the biggest boobs I've ever seen. My brother-in-law is handicapped, so we entered the ballpark through a special entrance (also used by the player wives). The woman looked like she was smuggling basketballs into the stadium.

I hate those spring training batting practice uniforms so much. The hats look like ranger hats with a C to me.
