Go CUBS !!

[CubColtPacer]

I think Soriano's running game needs to be shut down for the season. It's just a leg injury waiting to happen and he's not that fast anymore anyways.

 

He's been very effective in stealing bases since he came back though. He's really picking his spots well, and that has translated into 7 for 7 in just over a month.

[Fred Hornkohl]

This McLouth guy sure would look good in blue pinstripes, no?

[Andy]

This McLouth guy sure would look good in blue pinstripes, no?

Do we have any flame-out prospects that we could trade for him? I think Pie's value is still too high for that.

I could be wrong, but it seems like most of his steals have been due to bad throws by the catcher

[Fred Hornkohl]

McLouth blooped a single to shallow center field

[Hall7810]

Why did Edmonds break back?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Sanchez grounded into a FC, 5-4, McLouth out at second

[Fred Hornkohl]

Why did Edmonds break back?

 

He was having a senior mnoment, eh?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Doumit flied out to center field
