  1. I'd rather him hit it hard than ground out weakly or pop up. If he keeps hitting those hard those will start to fall.
  2. Yeah, doesn't help that he's not getting the corners of the plate at all, though. Especially the inside corner to lefties.
  3. Yeah, he's gotta reign those in. Those won't get caught all night.
  4. If it was a tie game in the 9th inning and the bottom of the order up, yes, then you can sac bunt. But in the first inning? That reeks of Baylorball. Dusty didn't do that as much.
  5. Please tell me Theriot was bunting for a hit, because if that was a sacrifice in the first inning, Lou needs his head examined.
  6. Is this speculation due to the roster spot that needs to be cleared for ARam?
  7. David Aardsma and Dutch Zwilling, the first and last players alphabetically, both played for the Cubs at one point during their respective careers. I love oddball facts like this.
  8. It's always sad to hear when someone is gunned down in the prime of his or her life, especially someone as good-hearted and well-liked as he was. The double celebrity death trifecta is now complete. David Carridine, Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett Michael Jackson, Billy Mays, Steve McNair. Let's hope this is the end of it. There's a lot of decent people on that list who went way too young.
  9. We've done it before, like last year, in Milwaukee. I was at Zambrano v. Sheets and it was amazing. I was at that final game. It was epic hearing 20,000 Cubs fans chanting "SWEEP! SWEEP! SWEEP!" while all the Brewers fans were walking out.
  10. Every hitter on the offense (save for Lee and maybe Soto) should be forced to watch the tape of Fox's 10th-inning AB. THAT is a quality major league at bat, something we have not had much of this year.
  11. Can we send them on a mission to the moon? Seriously, who doesn't want to be an astronaut?
  12. You talking bout the booing of Sori? yea cause they are hurting sorianos feelings. Everyone should be pooping rainbows when Soriano comes to the plate.
  13. Suppan should be tossed after the warnings. I can guarntee you Z would have been. This ump sucks.
  14. Of course. Kouske, please fly to O'Hare and catch the next flight back to Japan. I'll even pay for your ticket you worthless bum.
  15. If that was Strike 1 to Bradley, than Ball 4 to Hart was Strike 2.
  16. There was no reason to keep throwing Fielder breakin balls right there. Just thrown him a fastball and challenge him to hit it This could just be me, but does Marmol fall in love with his breaking stuff and get into trouble with it? Farnsworth used to do the same thing with that damn slider of his.
  17. Yea it was just posted in the minors section tonight. That's bad news just because we literally don't have anyone to replace him in that role. I think we can find another crappy lefty to replace him, and all will be normal again.
  18. I much prefer Fuld to the Naked Steve Stone.
  19. I'd blame the crappy pitcher before I'd blame the lack of Theriot's range.
