Does anyone have any idea when this program will feature the Cubs? I can't figure out what, if any, criteria they're using for the airings. Thanks.

Tuesday, March 10, 5:30 P.M. Eastern time. It's scheduled to be repeated overnight.

Just to remind people I guess this is on today?

Yep. I saw an ad saying it was going to be playing today. Featured guests are Lou, Demp, Lee, Harden and one more position player, can't remember whether it was Bradley or Aramis.

i almost feel weird not following suit and complaining but.........

 

i liked it. if nothing else, i always like watching any sort of video about the cubs. an hour long program dedicated to the cubs will always be enjoyable to me.

I enjoyed it despite a few previously mentioned quibbles (Cedeno, Miles, Ceda). I was a bit surprised Mark Grace was chosen as the all-time greatest first baseman over Frank Chance or Cap Anson.

Harold Reynolds had absolutely no idea what he was talking about

 

Miles and Fontenot similar players? Cedeno is a key loss?

 

I expect at least 10 homers out of Fontenot this year, maybe 15. Miles will be lucky to beat Theriot out.

 

Not sure what Cedeno did to "fit nicely into this utility role" last season.

lol, just watched it and heard the quote. Here it is in all its glory:

 

I think the guy they are going to miss more than anything is Ronnie Cedeno. He was perfect in the role they had him in there. It was a surprise to me when he went to Seattle. But I think that is the guy they are going to miss. Derosa, yes, but Ronnie Cedeno was that guy that I thought was in that perfect utility role and I think he was starting to handle that quite well.

I guess we shouldn't be that surprised, since Reynolds was a poor hitting middle infielder, like Cedeno. Harold Reynolds career numbers were 258/327/668, and Ronny Cedeno career numbers 252/289/639. Harold Reynolds probably felt he was a important part of a team. So it shouldn't come to a shock that he would feel that way about Cedeno.

This show was terrible. How many times did Harold Reynolds say another analyst "hit the nail on the head."? Vasgersian tried to say the Cubs pitching was good for the first time in a long time last year, when it has been their pitching that has legitimized the team for the past decade. It's the hitting that was fresh and new, freaking moron. Reynolds was all up Gathwright's jock because he can go in late and catch the ball and "the Cubs haven't had that before."

 

Harold Reynolds is just another dumb jock analyst who gets all giddy about dandy little glovemen and praises grit over production. Everytime Vasgersian talked I wanted to hit the X button on the controller to skip the scene and get to the next pitch.

 

The woman doing the interviews was a complete hack (and Lou missed a great chance to capitalize on her "I don't want to date you" line).

Harold Reynolds should be a scout. He fits the profile almost exactly: mediocre middle infielder who is in love with intangibles.
