    Then you just have to do that. And put Cabrera in right field. But I think you're wrong, that wouldn't get their attention at all. Agreed, I think they would probably want a Murton or Pie, plus a mid level position prospect, and maybe a Jae Kuk Ryu. I would trade any three pitching prospects for him including Marshall, Hill and Guzman.

    Shmidt was coming off of a complete game shutout in his last start. I pointed this out in the game thread but it bears repeating here. Shmidt is one of those rare pitchers that you have to be somewhat agreesive with. You have to look for a hitable fastball early in the count and hope you don't miss it. The reason is his change is so devistating. Moreover, he rarely walks people, although this year his walk totals are up a bit from historic levels. The Cubs offense is real bad, but Shmidt was on last night for the second start in a row.

    Nope -- but we are nearing terminal velocity. You can calculate the Cubs terminal velocity here: http://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/K-12/airplane/termv.html

    Shmidt is one of those rare pitchers that you have to be somewhat agressive with. You have to look for a fastball early in the count b/c his change is so devistating. And he typically doesn't walk people, although this year he has walked more than usual.

    I was just going to start one. When is it time to panic? How long can the Cubs go without making some big changes?
  6. CubinNY
    I have Winn on my fantasy team but he is on the bench. :x
  7. CubinNY
    Me either. And I have to work in about 6.5 hours.

    The Cubs are in free fall. They can't do anything right. And it couldn't come at a worse time. On a westcoast road swing with no off days. I'm not making excuses for them but it has to be tough to be in that clubhouse right now.
  9. CubinNY
    No he doesn't. Hill is a rookie pitcher who has just thrown more pitchers than ever before and the top of the order is coming up. It is a no brainer.
  10. CubinNY
    Will the last person in this thread please turn out the lights on the way out?
  11. CubinNY
    I agree. But overall I think Hill is going to be a pretty good pitcher. He just needs to get some more experience in the bigs.
  12. CubinNY
    It is just painful to watch JJ's swing. He flys open too soon and because of that his swing is even longer. He just has a terrible approach. ----------- That Neifi/Hill/Walker play at first base has happened all too often under Dusty's watch.
  13. CubinNY
    Did Neifi change his pants? I could hav sworn he had the low riders on in the first inning.
  14. CubinNY
    That ball damn near popped out of his mit. But as we learned on page 13 and out's and out, boys.
  15. CubinNY
    Slappy!!!!!!!
  16. CubinNY
    Ut oh.
  17. CubinNY
    That ball was gone in most any other park.
  18. CubinNY
    Take a night off of moderation. Yes I meant the double entendre. :D
  19. CubinNY
    That was a good pitch though.
  20. CubinNY
    so? are the Cubs the only ones allowed to suck at batting? why can't other teams. And they arn't "head high" they are high, but not that high. I'm happy! How about chin high?
  21. CubinNY
    They're helping out Hill by swinging at the head high fastballs.
  22. CubinNY
    somebody please kill Jimmy "WHY IS HE FAMOUS?" Fallon. Anyone playing a role in the unrivaled Cowbell skit is ok in my book. Who knew Chris Walken had that amount of comedic talent?
  23. CubinNY
    Nice yaker by Hill. How old is he? he looks like he's 18. I couldn't be more sick of that Pepsi com.
  24. CubinNY
    LOL JC's in the wrong career. He has ESPN anchor down.
  25. CubinNY
    Nice
