  1. absolutely
  2. that's terrific news with the Cubs facing a ground ball pitcher and countering with one of the biggest fly ball pitchers in the game
  3. So far: Jones, PTBNL, $1 to the Marlins for an A ball pitcher. However, it was just reported that the deal has hit a "snag" Only one million? WOW! Way to go Hendry! it's going to be more than that... money details are almost always wrong at first. Can you really see the Marlins being willing to pay Jock almost $6M next year?
  4. yeah, at least he seems to have remembered how to hit the ball over the fence. His patience is still atrocious, unfortunately.
  5. What? After all this its gonna clear up talk? I hate weather. There is one flash flood warning, for Cook County, because of a slow moving storm there earlier. It's all afternoon convection in a warm, humid air mass... dying out already. This game will be played, maybe without a delay too.
  6. Elvis Lara, huh? He had pretty solid #s in the DSL last summer and is off to a good start. Would be nice to see us find a good position prospect from the Caribbean.
  7. petrick is already on the way... if dempster goes on the DL, then who knows what's coming. Probably Piggy from Iowa.
  8. Murton in Iowa solid 6/4 BB/K ratio; doubles power and fairly low BABIP. I want to see him get that GB% lower.... maybe Von Joshua can help him add a little loft to his swing. He'll never be a big power guy, but hopefully he can be a doubles hitter like a Grace or Overbay.
  9. I don't really believe that... it'd have to be more, especially to cover next year's $5M+
  10. finally goldberg says it... he says that something like "the big O" is reporting it. And he's saying the Cubs are paying a lot of the money.
  11. this job must not pay very much... these girls are lousy
  12. i'd see more hot girls on an average night in coconut grove than i've seen from these marlins cheerleaders
  13. baseball doesn't have cheerleaders... this is b.s. for people who are too dumb/horny to pay attention to the game
  14. anyone listening to Fat Hank? I've been listening for about 20-25 minutes.... no mention at all, but all they've been doing is playing commercials and talking about the Heat for some reason.
  15. ron santo just told me that he's eating a snickers bar.
  16. if this is a real trade, it's the slowest breaking trade in history.
  17. http://www.weather.com/outlook/recreation/boatandbeach/map/interactive/60613?from=36hour_map_large&zoom=7&interactiveMapLayer=radar Should blow over lotsa popcorn out there, but doesn't look like it's anything terribly concentrated. I would think that when the sun starts going down, a lot of this stuff will begin dying out. Maybe a delay, but rainout looks unlikely.
  18. the funny thing is, i don't care what the cubs would be getting in return
  19. i have windows media player and still this doesn't work for me.... what the ****
  20. I know he's from near Kankakee. did he grow up as a cub fan? If so this has to be even a bigger thrill for him than for your average guy getting the call for the first time.
