  1. Which lineup is worse the Cubs or the Padres? Its pretty close...
  2. How does a guy like Jamey Wright make to the show and manage to hang around for 11 years? 63-91 W-L, 5.11 ERA lifetime stats, took a look at his Minor League stats - nothing spectacular. Haven't looked but, I'm guessing the Cubs are the only team he's had success against - typical.
  3. i do I believe the Cubs are up to their old tricks of withholding what's truly wrong with Prior, what's the next "illness" that's going to set him back? Leprosy? Why don't they just come out with it? I don't what "it" is but, there's something wrong.
  4. 25 pitches? Does anyone really believe Prior' going to pitch at all this season?
  5. How about some intensity or fire today? I wish some one on this team had strong enough leadership skills or the guts to confront Jacque Jones and say something like - "You get doubled off on a fly ball again and we're going!!" or to Juan Pierre - "Miss the cut-off man again and I guarentee I wont' miss..."- well, this is family site. Because the person who should be doing these things, Baker, never will.
  6. And despite the fact the going to sweep the Cubs tonight, I still believe their collection of crap is worse than the Cubs collection of crap.
  7. If they listened to Sarge, they'd be quite a bit better off, .364 lifetime OBP (including .410 in '84). I'm thinking the Sarge knows the value of working the pitcher and taking a few pitches. why then, doesnt Sarge teach that? I don't know but, I do remember him being a fairly patient hitter, maybe he's tried but, Dusty dimissed him/it as not being aggressive enough.

  9. Its extremely frustrating listening to crap on stick that is Roberts and Cameron get on base and score, while Pierre can't even hit the cut-off man!
  10. The sad, pathetic part of the recent Cubs play is they’re making Arizona and San Diego look good, did anyone notice that garbage the Cubs lost to Saturday? Beyond Giles and Greene - Eric Young in LF?, a declining Vinnie Castilla at 3B? Cameron with a robust .202 avg in CF? Not exactly a star laden lineup...
  11. At least Pierre hit a line drive! I didn't believe he was capable of that!
  12. Does anyone really think Z's going to throw less than 25 pitches this inning? or not issue any BB's?
  13. Pierre with a lead off walk? Miracles do occur!!
  14. I'm guessing he's got a hang nail on his pitching hand that's going to set him back another week.
  15. How could his fingers be cold when he's surfing 24/7?
  16. I think it's pretty ridiculous that people have a problem with this thread. No one is starting threads everyday documenting when Corey struggles. But this is simply an incredibly stupid play by Corey Patterson and it's worth mentioning. What's more ridiculous? Corey making a baserunning blunder or a whole team scoring 4 runs since last Saturday without any days off? And in that span, how many pitchers have or had ERA's over 5.00 entering those games? I'll trump that Dusty, the Genius, has got Bynum in LF tonight in place of Murton and Neifi at SS in place of Cedeno. So, if a team is scoring 0 runs, what does it matter who starts and where? You've got a good point, how about a card board cutout of Derek Lee? Its got a better chance of getting on base than most of the Cubs tonight.

  18. Speed dude, it kills, Bynum will make MLB History tonight by becoming the first player to ever steal first base...
  19. It would nice if Zambrano gets his head out of his rectum and pitches like the Cy Young canidate is supposedly is...you know, effective for once, what a refreshing change that would be.
  20. The Bulls, to their credit hung in there, won two, could have had three, I'll say it again - with an inside scoring presence the Bulls win this series in 5. Nevertheless, this is the Heat' high point, with their lack of defense they haven't much of a chance vs the Pissants (assuming they both make to the Finals). I don't like the Pissants much but, they are superior team to the Heat.
  21. Is Rich Hill a AAAA pitcher? Once again, he tore up the minor leagues, gets a chance and bombs, all this vs a not so good lineup.
  22. Should the a miracle occur allowing Prior and Wood to both make it back to rotation. What's the over-under on how many times they'll make it thru the rotation before "complications" arise?
  23. Unbelievable. This...I....The..... ](*,) ](*,) ](*,) Let's face it, Prior' not going see an inning this season, next he probably come down with the measles or chicken pox.
  24. If I were a below average Major League player, such as Jones, I'd want to play for Dusty witness: Manager Dusty Baker said Jones should've read the ball better, but added: "The balls stay up in the air longer with this light air. That was a big play too. That was one of them. When you're not scoring runs, you're trying to score any way you can. And most of the time you end up running into outs." This was the response of Jones being doubled up for second time in three games, he can do no wrong with Dusty in his corner.
