Isn't Johan Santana a FA this offseason?

 

Next, if I recall correctly

[Drew Doughty]

Isn't Johan Santana a FA this offseason?

 

next off-season.

Heard from one of my buddies that the fight continued in the clubhouse.. that's why Piniella and Rothschild went down there/why Barrett is out.

 

Barrett was still on the bench when Z went into the clubhouse. I think Z went down and trashed the place. They probably went down to calm him.

[inari]

Braves announcers say Z left Wrigley.

 

Absolutely unacceptable.

 

Z's days as a Cub are clearly numbered.

 

As this point, I'd like to see him shipped to first taker for some prospects and Guzman moved into the rotation. Barrett, on the other hand, I'd take a bucket of baseballs for him - used even.

 

Can anyone here really imagine Barrett will continue to struggle like this all season?

Again, for what it's worth, in 2002 there was a very public fight between Barry Bonds and Jeff Kent.

 

The Giants record before that fight was 42-34, a .553 winning percentage.

 

The record after the fight was 53-32, a .624 winning percentage.

[E.J.]

Nice hustle fatso. I feel bad for DLee. He doesn't deserve this crap.

[cheapseats]

SCOTT EYRE SUCKS!

[vj9999]

break your wrist next time, please, scott

 

With our luck, DLee is probably one that hurt something on that play.

[Old Style]

Nice hustle fatso. I feel bad for DLee. He doesn't deserve this crap.

Couldn't agree more.

That's what I was talking about. I've seen it in replays, but I never knew when, and why it happened.

 

Why did it happen?

 

Though it is encouraging.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Renteria singled to left field , Davies to third, Harris to second

:shock: this is BAD! haha

Bad stretch. Everything sucks today.

[Flames24Rulz]

Hahahaha, on ESPN 1000, they just played the Cubs radio commercial with Barrett talking up Zambrano on how great he is.

[alroy88]

OML, eyre's ERA down to 7.85

 

solid outing.

[Cubbies4Life]

OML, eyre's ERA down to 7.85

 

solid outing.

 

His ability to lower his era with bad outings will be Hendrys excuse to keep him

[frostwyrm]

35 pitches for Eyre. Not enough IMO. Let him finish this game.

[Omar]

Hahahaha, on ESPN 1000, they just played the Cubs radio commercial with Barrett talking up Zambrano on how great he is.

 

They seemed pretty good friends with each other. I remember times Barrett gave Z pep talks before games in 2004.

Though it is encouraging.

 

Because Bonds and Kent hated each other? Though I think in particular Jeff Kent was yelling at David Bell.

 

I know there were others that happened, and supposedly one or two huge fights, but this one was caught on camera and presumably forced the manager and players to go through the same scrutiny that will follow this one.

[Andy]

Geez. I imagine Lee might not be as unwilling to waive that NTC.

It really does seem that way, though. 2IP 5H is good for him these days.
