Fowler is so much fun

 

nah he's just piss break fodder

 

Yup. Just a dude.

Meh. Lets get em tomorrow. I am growing increasingly concerned about Lester though.

You shouldn't be. Velocity was up, location was better today. I think he's nearing end of spring training sharpness now and the next month he'll be really good.

i blame jersey for not starting a new steak thread for this loss

He only missed one ST start.

Oh, I know I shouldn't be. It's not rational, but I am. Why? Cause Cubs.

 

I wonder why teams aren't bunting against us when Lester starts. He's got the yips, and Bryant is kind of stiff at 3B.

bryant's going to derrek lee rizzo's wrist before long.

Wonder if Maddon will give up on the pitcher in the 8 hole anytime soon? Yes I realize they would pitch different to Ross today but at least he may have gotten something decent to hit; that's at least 3 times in the last 2 days the 8 hole has made the last out with a ton of runners on base.

[Soonernation]

Also wish they would get a 2nd baseman that can might actually be a threat at the plate; Herrera and Mendy ain't cutting it

i thought that ball was crushed off the bat

 

 

man, i thought that ball was hit 450 feet off the bat

 

glad i wasn't the only one. i was embarrassed for myself after i jumped out of my chair and yelled and it didn't even make it to the warning track.

yessssss

I [expletive] love you, Monty.

[Sammys Boombox]

I'm getting a Montero shirsey. It's decided

[DiamondMind]

Montero is easily my favorite "new" cub. His attitude is just awesome. He tweeted back at me during ST too which is the first time any "big" athlete has done that. He's just so damn nice.

[ctcf]

Diamond - what's your twitter?

[ctcf]

Also, is Jersey alive?

I was out to dinner with friends.

 

When I got back the other thread was already up. On a related note, The Jackal is a pretty shitty movie even though it has a fun Jack Black scene and silly Bruce Willis disguises. Bloated Bruce is my favorite.
