  1. Why not both? We can do a piggyback system and it won't hurt, imo. I'm not sure if you're joking, but based on both of their past performances on days when we need them to go deep to protect a taxed bullpen, it wouldn't be such a bad idea.
  2. I love the drunk people who stay at the game after everyone else leaves because you can hear them very distinctively through the crowd noise mic. Awww crud.
  3. Len just said that Hartt is coming back. This is dumb considering that he's a reliever who never hits but just ran the bases and would be starting his 3rd inning anyway. Marshall plan?
  4. I can't believe I'm about to type this, but... We should have left Dempster in for 1 more inning.
  5. Hopefully we get to Tony Womack and Tom Goodwin before Dusty does
  6. It wasn't that wild of a throw. It was pretty standard given the play. No, it was wild because it pulled Lee way off the base instead of getting the out to end the inning. I'm not saying it was Cedeno wild... it wasn't wild It was a tough play, but one a gold glove first baseman should make.
  7. We just blew a 7 run lead. What a worthless team.
  8. Better than the time Farnsworth's herpes infected the entire team! ...what? :-" Lol So someone I work with says she's heard Farnsy has several illegitimate kids. Can you imagine an army of mini Farnsworths walking around? They probably all need custom jeans because their quads are fully formed at age 8.
  9. Could this be the return of DLee circa May 2005? God when he gets hot he can do anything.
  10. I wouldn't have a problem calling him the best hitter on the team right now. He's got an excellent eye and looks to be absolutely locked in right now. He's definitely hitting better than anyone else...but if you announced in the Cubs clubhouse that Fukudome was the best player on the team Z would definitely punch you in the face.
  11. How do some of these guys keep getting jobs? Buck Coats? Seriously? I know they don't have the money the AL east twin towers do, but Buck Coats is not going to help them be competitive in that division.
  12. Lieber can't be traded until May, and I really don't think we should trade him anyway. hey it rhymes
  13. +1 There are many teams who would take a chance on him.
  14. He looks high all the time. He's like Jim Breuer. Or Snoop Do double g
  15. Maybe an interception near the goal line run back for a TD. Maybe. I've always been fond of the 'walk-off' pick-6 in an overtime football game. What was more spectacular, Doug Flutie in 1984 or Kirk Gibson in 1988? Both are the absolute pinnacle, within their respective sports, of the all-or-nothing game ending. I personally go with Gibson. The Play might have been more exciting, but nothing like it will ever happen again
  16. Just go in your cup after you finish your beer like a real fan would. Yeah, but the danger with that is that you can't tell the difference between the pee-cups and the cups filled with Old Style or Budweiser. SELL BETTER BEER, dag nabbit. Jeepers, you'd think the yuppies in the bleachers would have had the Cubs sell Blue Moon by now! Man, the word filter turns "g-dag nabbit" into "dag nabbit?" Ouch. I just wish Wrigley had more of a variety of beers. They don't need to get rid of Bud and Old Style, but come on, mix it up. What would you suggest? Maybe we can play at Wrigley Field presented by Guiness. It would be cool if they made some deal with Goose Island though.
  17. How do you people know that RF is flooded? Do you live in one of the apartments on Waveland or was something said on the radio?
  18. I think Fuld's at bat with the bases loaded and two out in the eighth was almost as bad. He took two called strikes that weren't horrible calls. Maybe it'll be more of a tallest midget competition for our CF job.
  19. Pat just said that McClain bobbled the ball so everyone was safe...is that Scott McClain? Perenial Cactus League MVP? That was very unlike him.
  20. Note that the 845 runs they have for the Cubs would be SECOND in the nl according to their projections, behind the Rockies but ahead of the Phillies. A cause of this is probably the predicted team OBP of .343, again second in the NL behind the rockies. We apparently will also lead the league in slugging. I could see the SLG part, but 2nd in on-base in the nl?
  21. I know Big Z's luggage is exciting, but...
  22. Whatever, still an east coast bias :evil: To play devil's advocate, the BoSox are in camp early because they have games that count early. They play 2 in Japan on the 25th of March, so they need to be ready to go soon.
