  1. Lord knows why. I'm pretty sure he played SS his whole time at LSU, and has played some SS in the minors. At worst he'd be adequate, and his bat is so much better than Izturis/Cedeno that it'd make up for the difference in defense. I too, believe he'd be at least adequate defensively, his bat and baserunning are far superior to Cedeno/Izturis.
  2. Upon Soriano' return why wouldn't Lou go with Theriot at SS, DeRosa at 2B, Soriano in LF, Pie in CF, Jones/Murton/Floyd in RF? This means Cedeno will probably be DFA, along with Miller (I hope). Well Cedeno doesn't have to be DFA, nor should he be. He's still young with options. But, I would love a line-up that looked something like this: LF Soriano SS Theriot 1b Lee 3b Ramirez RF Jones/Murton/Floyd C Barrett 2b DeRosa CF Pie/Jones For whatever reason, they don't seem to want to put Theriot at SS. But, could Theriot play CF? Pie could be sent back to Iowa, and Theriot could get his ABs splitting time with Jones in CF leaving RF for Murton or Floyd. But if Lou wants to go with 12 pitchers doesn't that mean one of the positions players has to go?

  4. I still maintain Slappy or even, Eckstein will hit a HR before Lee does.
  5. Yet, the Cardinals with largely a collection of crap will win 90 games.
  6. He won't, probably be into 100's by the 4th, will fall flat on his face.
  7. I'll see your 200 and raise you 50, in fact, Slappy will hit a HR before Lee does.
  8. This Cardinal team might be worse than last year' yet, they'll still probably make the playoffs. Beyond Edmonds, Rolen and Pujols is there a player on this team that would start for any other team?
  9. If Pujols is under 35, I'm going to be elected President in 2008.
  10. Any chance Big Z gives the Cubs a big lift tomorrow?
  11. The first pitch by Cotts was a strike last half-inning!!!!!
  12. Here comes the microscopic strike zone for Howry, book it.
  13. Rolen facing something more than a BP pitcher, looks feeble but, still gets on, unbelievable!
  14. The Cubs won't score again facing the journey man gargage like Franklin, Johnson, Hancock - wait, journey man garbage that's basically the Card's staff.
  15. Chris Duncan is not that good Len, lifetime .270 or so, minor league hitter, must be that magic Cardinal pixie dust.
  16. Will Lee ever hit a HR again? Floyd really, really, really sucks by the way.
  17. Miller' not going to be the 5th starter much longer.
  18. Despite the fact he made two great pitches to Spezio, Miller is missing spots, hanging sliders and consistently falling behind in the count - not good.
  19. The Cubs are beating the Cardinals 6-0 in the 9th. Marquis throws 7 shutout innings against his old team and this sucks? :shock: This is the start of a 9 game win streak. I wish. I wonder if Fred can whip up the odds of the Cubs 8 more in a row after this? Gotta be in the thousands to one, I would think. I put the probability of the CUBS winning their next 8 games at 0.000826405024652576 which is approx 1210:1 Or (7/17) to the 8th.
  20. Seriously, when did Preston Wilson become a competent hitter?
  21. At least it isn't switching to the Yankees game. At least you get to watch the Cubs. I have to watch the Yankees which is why I'm resorting to Gameday to begin with. I'm in the same boat, don't understand why anyone in Michigan would give a rodents' behind about the Red Sox and Yankees.
