Pitchers and Catchers Report - Official ST Pic/News Thread

[Derwood]

Mods,

With the start of games, is there any way to have a pics/news thread and a games lineup thread? Or something along those lines? Just curious.

Thanks

Per Cubs.com, the lineup for Thursday's start of the exhibition schedule @ the Giants:

 

SS Theriot

3B Cedeno

RF Fukudome

1B Lee

LF Murton

C Soto

2B Cintron

CF Pie

P Dempster (2 innings, followed by Gallagher)

 

yikes

 

I know, and with such an important game on the line too

 

what's scary is that one or two things go wrong and we're looking at that in a game that DOES matter

 

i think the fake freakout is more notorious on this board than the fake rally.

 

haha, which reminds me, the other day I was thinking to myself, "man I can't wait till the season starts so everyone stops flipping out on every word" and then I remembered who I was thinking about, and how it will only get worse. I can't wait for the offseason.

Okay.

 

So, why do you come here again?

Ramirez injured/resting, Soriano injured/resting, DeRosa injured/resting/heart surgery. Then of course you'd need Dempster to get knocked out/injured in the second inning (if you really wanted to see the same thing). That's a lot of stuff happening at once. It could happen, but it's probably just as likely that it would be from the Cubs having won the first two games of a series before resting the vets than anything else. If we see that in any one game, it really doesn't mean anything, not scary. If we see that for a month, that's trouble, but I think Murton could stand-in for Soriano for a month and not hurt the team at all.

Because every so often, good conversation happens here amidst the gratuitous post-padding of quoting with no response and replying in emoticons.

e2s was nicer when he was smoking the tweed.

[David]

LOL He's right, though. The game threads are just beyond ridiculous. I can barely stand to read them sometimes.

 

I think I'll be at the chat a lot more this year, if it's working.

[Sammy Sofa]

Why, do emotion-free robots post there?

no, but you can swear!

I freely admit that this gives me a juvenile thrill.

Oh. That's right. I went there.

So you can use your 3-seconds-ahead feed to ruin everything again? :wink:

Holy carp. My wife took a picture of me in the same type of gear doing the same thing Z was doing with a ball a few years ago. We could be brothers!

We just posted a ton of spring training pics on our blog, and made it possible for you to browse them without having to scroll through a ton of posts. Feel free to check it out...the address is in my sig.

Too bad he didn't beat up anyone or pick on Jeter/ARod.

I'm eagerly awaiting new mugshots on cubs.com. I'm surprised they're not here yet.

I'll save you the wait.

 

Sean Marshall will look high.

 

Will Ohman will look insane (oh, wait)....
