    Facing more bad pitching tomorrow I'm going to go out on a limb and say the Cubs score two runs before the 9th inning. And maybe we'll learn the answer to what'll happen first a Cub HR or a Cub catcher throwing out a base runner. I'm leaning strongly towards the latter.

    I figured it would be a case of pick your poison a Floyd K or, if he somehow drew a BB, a Lee K (that's coming next inning).

    I'm calling it now a Cub will put the ball in play next inning.

    But, but Cedeno and Murton tore it up at Iowa, isn't that enough? The Cubs, the only team in Baseball with guys who tear up the minor leagues but, can't manage to hit their weight in the big leagues.

    I believe he should be sent back to Iowa perhaps, he can help them to the PCL Championship.

    The whole can't add payroll argument is an empty one, to the billionaire(s) who are going to purchase the Cubs, a few extra million is a drop in the buckett.

    Ryan fricken Ludwick has hit a HR tonight, and not a single Cub can manage deep fly ball off the soft tossing junk baller.

    What'll happen first a Cub hitting a HR or a Cub catcher throwing out a base runner?
  10. gflore34
    Well, at least the Theriot leads off next inning, and after a base hit, we'll get to see/hear Cedeno GIDP.
  11. gflore34
    He tore it up @ Iowa? Let me clairify, is there any reason to play him in Chicago?
  12. gflore34
    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.

The Cubs might actually be better off in the short run with someone else leading off. Yes they may but, it is the Cubs, and something good coming of Soriano' injury? 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.
