The deadline for him to sign with the Nationals is just a few days away, correct? I've heard nothing of the negotiations. Are they going to get him signed or not?
-
I wonder who the rumored trade target will be this offseason. I look forward to the inevitable 200+ page "Cubs interested in (superstar player)" thread.
-
And the Cubs put up 17. Is there a full moon?
-
Wow. They actually looked like a Major League team today? I'll be damned. It's about time.
-
Ow.
-
Not when Geo couldn't hit a beach ball right now.
-
Some players decline gradually. Others just hit the wall. My guess is that our friend Soriano went about 900 mph into the side of the Sears Tower and now needs to be scraped off.

I think if it's during the actual NFL season, nobody will care. The NFL is such a juggernaut that it will crush any other football league in direct competition with it. However, if they wrap their season just before training camp starts, or starts their season just after the Super Bowl, they could have a shot if they play their cards right.
-
Yes.
-
I predict the Cubs will at least lose today by a respectable score, so that'll be a big improvement.

how much violence and / or nudity is allowed in a game thread? The interwebs may not have enough to get the Cubs out of this funk. . . . . . . If I were to do a game thread, tomorrow's is all I could do. . . I'm heading out of town and couldn't be relied on for the remainder of the weekend. I had a 9-game win streak last year.... perhaps I could try to reclaim some of the magic? No disrespect to you, and definitely none to the GTP, but I dont think we really need any mojo to take care of the Pirates. With the way this team is playing, we'd need mojo to take care of a Little League team.

Aaron Miles is what Jimmy Edmonds was supposed to be last year when we signed him. Only Edmonds had some good years in his career before coming to the Cubs.
-
Well, he can't really hit either. Riiiiiiiiiiiight Yeah this crap is absurd. Soriano has never, ever hit in his career. Every year it seems like he's about .220 with 19 homers. Plus he eats kittens. Or maybe he's not very good anymore and this is about what we can expect from here on out. .230/.300/430 Some guys have a slow, gradual decline. Some guys fall right off a cliff.
-
You don't want to see his puppy slippers. He'd even make Mr. Burns cringe with his wardrobe.

-
That's the problem, though. All of the positions he currently plays he'd be blocked at. They'd have to make him a LF/RF/1B/3B/C supersub, or (god and heaven forbid) try him out at another position like 2B.

I'm sure I could catch a classic game on MLB Network sometime in January. ;) Who cares. The Packers will be storming their way to the Super Bowl, so the epic fail that was the 2009 Cubs will be out of sight and out of mind. Fixed that for ya. ;)

You have keen eyes. They played a report on the radio earlier stating that security did indeed detain the wrong guy, and the guy who threw the beer walked away. The report went on to say that the Cubs will issue a photo of the guy--with the help of the CPD and hope to prosecute him to the fullest extent possible. I would certainly hope that the guy they threw out would get a free game ticket or something.

Let's see if we can get Steve Trachsel back in uniform.
-
Ok guys, all we need is a couple grand slams and a 2-run homer! We can do this!!!
-
Because if anything says "Marmol Time," it's a 9-run deficit.
-
believe. This is the year.

Don't be so sure. There's no clock in baseball. Theoretically this could go on forever.
