  1. 101 years ago today, Hippo Vaughn pitched a 9 inning no-hitter before giving up a hit in the 10th as the Reds pitcher threw a 10 inning no-hitter. We won't see a Reds no-hitter anytime soon or the Rockies. Yu can do it, Anderson can't.
  2. Tim is too old to remember Sublime.
  3. Wow. The Cubs need another Juan Cruz.
  4. While playing 5 total games against bad teams. 12, if you include Milwaukee.
  5. You are surprised a matchup of two 2017 playoff teams is on national tv? I mean ESPN definitely has it's favorites... Yankees/Red Sox/Cubs/Cardinals/Astros/Dodgers get significant airtime over the rest of the league. Other than opening day where multiple games are aired, teams like Colorado/Arizona/Milwaukee/Toronto/Minnesota, who have been pretty good in recent years are rarely featured. Just an observation. Then why are you surprised the Cubs/Rockies are on national TV tonight?
  6. A bigger concern is not having Zobrist leadoff when he is out there. My ideal lineup today... Zobrist Baez Bryant Rizzo Contreras Russell Happ SP Almora Almora is just fine leading off against a lefty. He's fine for it I agree but I still think he's their 2nd best option. Almora has been cold this past week, his approach is not nearly been as good as Zobrist and his .387 against lhp is propped by a .350 babip.

  8. Playing the game the right way! http://www.inforum.com/letters/2895842-drivers-ed-and-baseball
  9. 4) Richardson OT NC State
  10. My ideal draft so far.... 1) M. Fitzpatrick 2) H. Landry 3) DJ Chark With that said, Bears have had an outstanding draft so far.
  11. My preferences (in order): Trade up for Chubb if he falls 5-7. Draft Nelson Draft Fitzpatrick Look to trade with Buffalo or anyone looking to get a QB and trade down.
  12. Thanks. They have certainly been hot on his trail recently. I’d love it. Despite not being involved since I resigned last Fall, if I hear anything I'll let you know as there are several scouts who cover WI/IL who also cover IN.
  13. Bruno - Borden was listed at 284.

  15. I'm glad Kelenic decided on travel ball this Spring instead of the WIAA, this is by far the worst Spring in the 13 years I had covered WI/IL.
  16. I love him and he's good but he's not 1/1 good.
  17. he looks like a fetal alcohol case If Carrie has a trilogy, we know who could play Carrie.
  18. Weis becomes a male escort to ensure a Cubs WS (not sure what the male escort job market is down in NC but live your dream). Cubs go 11-1 in the post-season. The one loss is caused by ECU losing at home on a hail Mary to Memphis and Weis' inability to perform after that.
  19. hopeyourenotserious.gif Go back to reading your vampire books.
  20. I'm glad I'll be able to get my Canadian fishing reports again. Can't wait for Mike North or Murph to come back. Although those bridges appear to be far more burnt.
  21. You weren't elated when they traded Jake Fox and Aaron Miles for Jeff Gray?
  22. Hendricks and Christian Villanueva came in the Dempster trade. Edwards, Olt, Grimm and Neil Ramirez came in the Garza trade. That's right, I knew I would get the Texas trades mixed.
  23. Depending how old you are, I would put Sosa for Bell as well as Sandberg/Bowa for DeJesus ahead of it. Hendricks/Edwards Jr. for Dempster is right there too.
  24. I have a hard time believing that the Bonnies aren't a lock to get in.
