    ahahaha, tyler palko talks about getting ready for the nfl? how about practicing how to hold a clipboard, or walking into an office and have someone tell him that he's been cut?
  2. TruffleShuffle
    wait, now would be a good time to say how i'm still worried about lee's power, right?

    so to recap, soriano doesn't run on a fly ball he'll score on 90% of the time, but does run on a line drive to the outfield when he's got about a 50% chance to score. good work.
  4. TruffleShuffle
    good to see soriano can steal second on his "gimpy" hamstring... his baseball IQ is about as good as jones and cedeno
  5. TruffleShuffle
    only 3/5 of the time... Z and Marquis are definitely not auto outs
  6. TruffleShuffle
    they're excited that they actually found an attractive woman in pittsburgh
  7. TruffleShuffle
    izturis up... 3 outs
  8. TruffleShuffle
    good pitch to swing at there, jones

    not sure where limbaugh and coulter slot into the lineup...
  10. TruffleShuffle
    did I miss something? those guys are not bad hitters.

    bob walk babbling about how home plate is shaped like a house

    outside

    only one if we're lucky

    a high school pitcher who already has injury issues? sounds like a cub type of pick.
  15. TruffleShuffle
    great job, idiots
  16. TruffleShuffle
    incredibly bad coaching or baserunnning... not sure which. It's a moderately deep fly ball with a fast runner. Inexcuseable error.

    There are alot of wildfires in southern GA. Today much of the smoke from those fires is covering the entire northern part of FL from one side of the state to the other in thick smoke. Its hazardous I think to breathe alot of. Im not sure why they would call the game I dont know really the phisical impacts of being out in the stuff but I can tell you here on the west side of the state near Tampa its very apparent, smelly nasty air. visibility at one of the Tampa airports was as low as half a mile this morning because of the smoke... they probably could've played, but it wouldn't have been pleasant for the fans/players.

    This can't possibly be right. If anything, the game was probably wildfired out.

    By the way, how long before the Astros release Koby Clemens? Should be by the end of the month, I'd think.
  20. TruffleShuffle
    I don't believe that Clemens will be as "bad" or Igawa as "good" as that article suggests... but the price is still ridiculous.
  21. TruffleShuffle
    I'd also give a special mention to the inconsistent offense.
  22. TruffleShuffle
    Cubs will take Vitters... in other news I'm looking forward to Wieters making the bigs within 2 years of being drafted and producing at a 280/380/460 clip by 2010.

    i wanna know why his brothers just decided they were gonna make him throw lefthanded

    let's get moving with the new game thread, davhern

    Cubs team walks: 2007: 91 (13th) -- IsoD .062 2006: 359 (last by 64) -- IsoD .051 2005: 419 (last by 12) -- IsoD .054 2004: 489 (14th) -- IsoD .060 2003: 492 (14th) -- IsoD .064 Now a negative about the offense... team BABIP is currently .315, which is well over the league average of .300. There may be some guys on this team who can expect to have BABIP above league average -- I don't really have time to look into this -- but the .315 figure will probably come down. The team BA with RISP is also .285, good for 2nd in the league (although from the game threads you'd never think we got a clutch hit). This is also likely unsustainable. Some of the decrease in "luck" will hopefully be mitigated by an increase in consistency (offense was very hot/cold the first month) and better luck in the pythagorean W/L.
