I think Barrett is on track to beat his personal record of 18 GIDP's he had in '99 which was 5th in the league.

 

EDIT: Sosa had 17 that year lol

Floyd to the bereavement list, Fontenot up.

[rynefan]

Can't stand Chip. Glad I am watching it with Len and Bob.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Has anyone ever said "Wanna have a catch" before? Sounds a little funny to me!

 

Ever see Field of Dreams?

Yep, but I don't remember that line, although it would make sense if that's where it's from.

[rynefan]

My son was the opposite. He should have been a textbook leadoff hitter, but died whenever he was put leadoff, and it never failed, it would take his coach (whoever it was that year) half the season to figure it out.

Wonder what happened? Must be something serious.

How does that work? Is there a certain number of days or can Floyd come back at any time?

Strange, not sure why that happens.

[rynefan]

Shame about Cliff. I'm sure we'll hear more soon.

Floyd can come back whenever he's ready to.

 

Prayers are with Floyd and his family.

Since when did the WGN broadcast on gameday audio start broadcasting commercials?! I liked getting to hear the stadium noise between innings.

 

Though I guess with them being in Atlanta, I'm probably better off this way. I hope it's a one-time thing.

I'm not sure if it has been mentioned in this thread, but Piniella said on WGN before the game that Floyd's dad is very sick.

[rynefan]

Must be pretty bad if he's on the bereavement list.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Great patience Jacque.

[da bears]

Gosh almighty Jacque, youre awesome.

[rynefan]

Cliff's been playing pretty nice off the bench. He'll be missed however long he's gone.

[98navigator]

God, I have grown to hate Chip Cary! I'm glad I have the option to watch Len & Bob.

 

Chip says "Mark Grace is the last Cubs prospect to come the MLs and make an All Star team."

 

In the scheme of things, who cares about AllStar games? Of course, he's ignoring the fact that Theriot and Pie are in this game.

he specifically mentioned theriot, which started that whole conversation.

Prior made it that year too.

You seriously waited for that to roll all the way to you Jones? Get off my television.

[Exile on Waveland]

I really dislike Jones.

[Careless]

Close to being an in-the-park, the way it was played

[Irrelevant Dude]

I think he was actually hoping it would roll back to the infield so he didn't have to throw it.
