    that's different. soto's a cub. And a good position prospect. That means he must be up to his eyeballs in amphetamines, steroids, HGH, black tar heroin, crack, crank, meth, weed, coke, LSD, PCP, Oxycontin, NyQuil, DayQuil, Allegra, Viagra, Penicillin, Tylenol, Advil, and Peptobismol... ...ALL WITHOUT A PRESCRIPTION! Test him!!!! Does it matter? He's a Cub positional prospect which means all the drugs in the world won't stop him from amounting to nothing nor doing anything of note besides sucking.

    Illegal substances aside, for me, the most frustrating aspect of Ankiel' success is the lack of it on or for the Cubs. He's already hit more HR's than the "Big Time Prospect" Pie is probably going to hit for his career. Seriously, does every positional prospect for the Cubs have to be terrible?

    I asked this in the game thread - Not having seen the game, is it reasonable to think Lee should have made a play on both of the gb singles starting the 9th yesterday?
  4. gflore34
    Even though Pie sucks, I still advocate starting him over Jones - at least there's a chance Pie will beat out a gb or two.
  5. gflore34
    And what do the Cubs have? The great Felix Pie who can only manage such a line in Iowa and quite probably turn out to be Corey Patterson redux - how fitting. By the way, not having seen the game, is reasonable to think Lee should have made plays on both of the gb singles starting the 9th?

    This is a big game, Cubs lose tonight and the Pirates will be going for the sweep Sunday - since Zambrano' going tomorrow I'm assuming a loss.
  7. gflore34
    How about a change up today? Some Dodgers GIDP's and Marquis, a noted good hitting pitcher, drives in a few runs as the Cubs pound out a 10-3 victory.

    Who knows, maybe a miracle on addison will occur and the guy (Monroe) acquired who has mashed LHP (until he became a Cub, of course) will do so tonight.

    Hey Lou hit and run, its worth a try.
  10. gflore34
    What about our other pitchers? Should Lee and Ramirez get booed for having no power this year? Anytime a player has a bad run they should get booed? You can't compare other pitchers to Z. He's paid close to 100 million dollars to win games like yesterday. He's been flat out our worse pitcher down the stretch. I wasn't booing him but, I was damned pissed, he and the Cubs shouldn't be losing games to flotsam and jetsam crap like Loaiza. Along the way, giving up a two run single to said crap.
  11. gflore34
    Booing or not, its immaterial to me, what matters most is the Cubs lead in the Central, it's not at 4.5 or more games as a direct result of his inability to win a game since the ASB.

    If Zambrano continues to pitch this poorly, should some consideration be given to leaving him off the playoff roster?
  13. gflore34
    Maybe this clown should be skipped his next turn.
  14. gflore34
    How many BB's is the big a-hole going to issue this inning after 2 outs?
  15. gflore34
    Way to show up big "Ace" - you piece of crap!!!!
  16. gflore34
    Thus far Loaiza gotten away with two meatballs DeRosa and Jones both popped them up.
  17. gflore34
    And right on cue the "Ace" gives lead up.
  18. gflore34
    If the Cubs win today it'll render whatever the Brewers do meaningless...
  19. gflore34
    Any chance the supposed "Ace" shows up tomorrow?
  20. gflore34
    He'd have at least 2 HR's by now if he was Cardinal...
  21. gflore34
    It appears to me that pitchers have throwing to him in the same exact manner every at bat. In fact, its been going on for, at least, the last two months. Its hard for me to believe he or the coaches have yet to figure this out yet, he continues to take the same pitch for strike after strike. Why hasn't he made any adjustments? Pitchers have found an effective approach - they're not going to alter it until Lee renders it ineffective.

    Is Derek Lee going to stop sucking anytime soon?
  24. gflore34
    I thought it was the right call however, I was worried that Dempster would walk in two or more runs. But, the saving grace is the Brewers are actually worse than the Cubs at drawing BB's and Mench will swing as long as the pitch resides in the same zip code.
  25. gflore34
    Well, the supposed "Ace" didn't show up last night, funny, every time the Cubs have needed Zambrano to come up big he's failed miserably. If the Cubs still manage to win the division, I wonder if Lou shouldn't go with Hill or Lilly as his No. 1 starter.
