    Beyond an injury is there any justifible reason for playing Cedeno?

    Pretty hard to forget about this game when you lose Soriano for perhaps a month. Sori will be missed but it's not like he was constantly on base or driving in a lot of runs. The Cubs might actually be better off in the short run with someone else leading off. It makes our already light-power hitting OF even worse. I fail to see how this is going to benefit us. You knew something like was going to happen to further magnify Hendry' unwillingness or inability to get another bat before the trade deadline. uhh.. No we didnt. Where did you get your crystal ball? I don't have crystal ball but, the only luck the Cubs seem to have is bad luck. Things were going too well for something bad not to happen.

There's about as much a chance of that happen as there is Jason Kendall throwing out a base runner.

    It'll be at least month quite probably longer...

    C'mon its the Cubs, its going to the worst possible outcome, you can book it.

    You know, I could care less about Tom Galvine, his wife, his father, his mother, his great grandmother, his second cousin, his kindergarten teacher and any other references to him or his family.

    The most disappointing aspect of tonights game is not that the Cubs lost and blew a chance to take first but, their playoff chances ended with Soriano' injury. I don't know all the details but, I do know this the Cubs and things such as an injury to key player never work out well. By the way what's with the two strikes zones tonight? One for Glavine and one for the Cubs?

    What about Werth, Helms? I know it was unrealistic to expect the Phillies to take 2 of 3 but, can't those clowns at least win one game?

    I'm thinking it about time Ohman got sent to Iowa and Pignatiello was given a shot. Ohman doesn't have options. He'd have to be placed on waivers and then he could become a FA with the Cubs still paying his salary. I was wondering about that, its too bad, thanks for the clarification.

    In '84 they where both in the NL East... Yes. I was at that game four against the Mets when we swept them. I'll never forget the atmosphere of that game. Was that the game in which Jody Davis nearly hit the camera booth in CF? I'm thinking he cranked off of Dwight Gooden.

    I wonder if Jim Hendry looked into obtaining Pat Burrell, given the Phillies lack of pitching, someone like Rich Hill or Sean Marshall would be their No. 2 starter. There's no way the Phillies are going to make to the playoffs with their staff as currently constructed - they won't be able to outscore teams every game.
  15. gflore34
    Its going to be 7-3 shortly...
  16. gflore34
    The most frustrating aspect of this game is crap like Wes Helms is 2-2.
  17. gflore34
    21 ER in 30 IP, an OPS of .800+, BAA .360+ the Cubs will get to this guy.
  18. gflore34
    Do the Phillies seriously think they'll have a chance with this staff? Outside of Myers and Hamels, its pretty weak.
  19. gflore34
    Which is a distinct possibility considering the Phillies have a much weaker bullpen and staff, for that matter.

    Listening to the Score on the way into work this morning, Mike North actually said something viable - "...Ryan Howard is stupid baseball player". I wouldn't flag him as a stupid baseball player however, beyond hitting there's really nothing else Howard does well. I'll give him the bat over D. Lee but, D. Lee beats him hand over fist in the remaining facets of the game, so to does Prince Fielder and of course, Albert Pujols. Despite the MVP last season, I believe Pujols is the superior hitter and player compared to Howard.

    I believe this time it may have been the heat, he was pretty good through 4.
  22. gflore34
    The silver lining is unlike Cole Hamels, Jamie Moyer has to perfect to be effective, if his missing his spots, he's going to get crushed.

    Not true (I think it may have been, years ago); now waivers are needed for any trades after July 31. The significance of Aug. 31 is that's the last day a player can be added to a team's roster for postseason eligibility. Thanks, now that you mention it, I knew that, nevertheless, thanks.
  24. gflore34
    Indeed, if Hendry doesn't give him a shot, that may very mean he thinks the Cubs are set.
  25. gflore34
    I may be wrong but, isn't the intra-league waiver deadline August 31? If so, Hendry has until the end of month to aquire Church before having to get him by waivers.
