[Hairyducked Idiot]

Shawn Estes is the only thing that has kept the Cubs from a superb winning streak.

 

It's like it's 2003 all over again.

[genbar]

Jason Marquis is the only thing that has kept the Cubs from a superb winning streak.

Soto's RBI's through mid May: 30

Cubs Catchers' RBI's all last year: 54

 

I can't decide what has been a bigger upgrade:

Fukudome over Jones or Soto over Kendall.

 

Doesn't matter, Soto/Fuku are both significant upgrades over Kendall/Jones.

[PrimeTime]

Only if that piece of crap Marquis wasn't pitching..We'd have an 8 game streak going..Oh and hes going again tommorrow..

[bukie]

I think Zambrano is pitching tomorrow.

Yeah, well he DID give us that ONE incredibly unlikely start against Cincy.

 

He had the going for him, I think.

[Brian]

Z tomorrow, Marquis Sunday

Z is going tomorrow, and Marquis on Sunday. But I am torned, if the Cubs have a chance to sweep the Pirates on Sunday they should go for it. But I also want Marquis out of the rotation. What to do, what to do, what to do?

Is it a sign of the Cubs being good or the NL being bad when the only team I fear in the up coming weeks is the Rays?

Outside of the Cubs/DBacks/Marlins and the Rays, the rest of baseball, has basically been hit-or-miss. But I like the fact that the Cubs could be argued that they are the best team in baseball. That may have been more improbable then Jim Edmonds joining the Cubs.

Not really improbable. Most projection systems had them right up there coming into the season.
