  1. Buck Coats 2 run bomb straight away CF. 12-3 Cubs!
  2. Walker 2 run HR to start the game.
  3. I think someone will claim him, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him waived more than once this year. I could see Florida, Tampa, K.C., and Texas all putting in a claim for him. The Cubs may just be best off trading him for a PTBNL.
  4. Any chance at all the Cubs pass him through waivers & he clears? I don't see him having any chance to make the 25 man. I'm guessing the best they will able to get for him is a low to mid level prospect.
  5. FYI, Buster Olney was on a local radio station here in S.Fl. & predicted the Oakland A's will be the 06' WS champs. LY, he chose the Twins.
  6. An excellent job! Cub fans are the best!
  7. Well if losing baseball is what the fans want, then that's what they'll get. :D
  8. That only happens if there is an injury to any of the starting BP guys or if Williamson is traded. If none of those happen, I'm guessing he will start the year as Iowa's closer. This is also assuming Welly is dealt.
  9. that's what I did
  10. I don't know, but for some reason his name stuck with me and I remembered this http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/springStats?team=chc&type=pitch&year=2004 Corey was in Cubs camp in 2004 and appeared in 11 games. obviously some scout is in love with him TY!
  11. Is that the same Corey who was a MR for the Pirates a few years back?
  12. off a guy who's going to be bagging groceries in a month. The Kurt Warner of MLB?
  13. Neifi Perez vs. LHP 3 year: .259/.291/.415/.706 You know you suck when Neifi puts up better numbers than you. Neifi is swinging from the right side of the plate, when he is facing those lefties, unlike Jones. It's not a fair comparison. However, I do agree that Jones needs to be platooned v.s. LH'ers. Right now it looks like either Grissom or Hairston will be his platoon partner.
  14. Exactly, unless the Cubs have extensive injuries to the BP, we may never see Boehringer in Chicago this year. Most likely, a minor league roster filler. No big deal.
  15. My guess is Aramis is preparing himself physically & will ask for a restructuring of his contract after he has a career year in 06'. Lee/Ramirez will be a very potent 3/4 combo for the Cubs this year.
  16. I wouldn't want either one on my fantasy team. However, if I had to choose one, it would be Eaton & I would only spot start him.
  17. Next years FA class is much better, I'd expect them to top 100 mil.
  18. http://www.mlb4u.com/chi.html Erye- 2.7 + 1 mil signing bonus Barrett- 4.5 Blanco- 1.5 Dempster- 4 + 1mil signing bonus Wood- 11 mil Maddux- 9 mil Rusch- 2.75 + a non-guaranteed 500K in performance bonuses Lee- 8.75 Ramirez- 10.5 Howry- 2.5 + 1.5 mil signing bonus Jones- 3mil + 1.33 mil signing bonus Ohman- 610K Miller- 1mil + up to 1 mil in performance bonuses Zambrano- 6.5 Hairston- 2.3 Pierre- 5.75 Williamson- 2mil Perez- 2.5mil Walker- 2.5 or 2.7 depending on PA Mabry- 1.075 Prior 3.65 Weurtz,Wellemeyer,Cedeno,Murton,Williams (league minimum 327K) Novoa-will make less than 327K, b/c expected to spend time in Iowa Grissom,Pagan,Restovich (minor league deals) I came up with an annual salary for Cubs players of: 90.247 mil. Bonuses could take it up to: (6.33 mil) 96.577mil
  19. It's just the media doing their normal making something out of nothing. Sensationalism is their profession.
  20. Gerber's glove save on Nash was unbelievable! Great performance by the Swiss! Huge upset!
  21. Hillarious! He looks like an extremely obese Bartolo Colon
