It's so nice that they are playing better, I haven't missed a game in a week #lovePat.

[Sammy Sofa]

Castro and Rizzo...not breaking our hearts? What is...I don't...

[Careless]

He didn't even need to put much on that throw

[Careless]

btw, Pujols has 0.0 fWAR 87 games into the season. Only 8 seasons and $210 million left on that contract

Yeah. That would sting so [expletive] bad if he were on my team.

He would still be godlike if he was on the Cubs.

[Sammy Sofa]

Wow, did not expect to see Borbon suddenly making that.

[davell]

I honestly believe every AAA team there is, can throw out 3 starters that could do what Blanton does. How he's lasted as long as he has makes no sense.

Soriano's contract looks really, really good compared to Pujols'.

Starlin Walk!

Oh, I agree. I like Soriano a lot. Cubs fans (A lot of them anyway) are quick to jump on Sori because of what he makes but one needs to look at Hendy on that deal.

 

Soriano did what anyone would do when offered a mega millions winning lottery ticket. He took it. He's a pretty damn good player still.

[CubInOK]

I was at Friday night's Angels' game. Absolutely no one there likes Hamilton and his 0.5 fWAR with his contract either. CJ Wilson's contract is a big fat anchor too.

 

But as long as Trout keeps putting up 10 WAR seasons on a minor league contract...

[UMFan83]

yay barney

[Schwarber Fan]

Let's just stay on this roll. 10 in a row

Blanton is a tomato can.

[CubColtPacer]

With that homer, at the moment the Cubs have a positive run differential on the season once again.

[sneakypower]

i had figured Joe Blanton would be the cure for what ails Rizzo Castro Barney

[Illini Iceman]

Maybe the Cubs will get a big enough lead that Sveum will actually use Henry Rodriguez or Brooks Raley instead of Parker and Russell for the 18th straight game.

This winning thing the Cubs have been doing is fun! Now it would be very Cubs like of them to go on a serious run before the trade deadline and pull within 5 of a WC spot.

 

They can pull the old Major League Indians movie on us and: "win the whole [expletive] thing"!

 

And no, I don't at all think that will happen this year. Just sayin.

Somehow I don't think peeling a piece of clothing off a cardboard standup of Laura Ricketts after each win will provide much motivation for the team.

I don't think I have ever seen a picture of her. The lady in the original Major League movie was not half bad.

[Guancous]

Pujols. That guy.

[UMFan83]

Pujols still killing us
