Never know, if he was pinched up the middle more maybe he might not have made the play
-
When was the last time we had an opening day game that didn't end up looking like a football score? Oh boy is this game sloppy
-
Murton almost doesn't seem like he should be a Cub prospect, he knows how to hit. Weird. We probably haven't taught him anything, I'm sure he learned everything he knows in the Boston system before we got him in the Nomar deal.
-
Fans are all over him too
-
Neifi coulda done that... :wink:
-
Very rare...not many triples to start a season I'd presume

I probably would. This would free you up to trade Furcal, or even ship Tejada. I think Tejada would be able to bring in someone better than Jones...maybe contact some guys beforehand and see who you could get for Tejada?
-
I agree. Pitching seems like it could be ok, but some of those guys aren't that well established. I like Myers and Patterson, but you might want to deal someone like Tejada perhaps for an ace and maybe something else. I say Tejada because you can probably use Furcal's steal, and you have plenty of power elsewhere. You also could use another closer or two,

I hate doing this, but I coughed up $100 bucks to be in this league, so I'm gonna be pretty dedicated to it. It's a 13 (wierd, I know) team roto league, 6x6 (the standard plus OBP and L). What do you guys think? C - Barrett 1B - Berkman 2B - Giles SS - Lugo 3B - Cabrera OF - Abreu OF - Giles OF - Drew Util - Gomes Bench - Shelton Bench - Biggio Bench - Monroe SP - Harden SP - Buehrle SP - Schilling RP - F. Cordero RP - T. Jones P - Valverde P - Weathers Bench - Lackey Bench - Seo Bench - Escobar Bench - Madson I had the last pick, so by the time I was up the second time, all my aces were gone...so I tried to take a good amount of solid pitchers, but I would love to have a bona fide ace. I also have a lot of variability w/ OF (Berkman and Cabrera are eligible), but I would have liked to get someone like Hall who can play many IF positions.

So do I, I was tied for 3rd coming into today, I'm now pretty much dead. At least those games were well worth the money.
-
Can someone update me with scores for the NU game?
-
The most exciting part was how they determined who got the ball first. That was the only part I'd watch.
-
I agree. You shouldn't celebrate beating a crap team like Penn State at home on a fluke shot that ended up not counting. Looked silly. When we have a 33-game home win streak and tinkled away a huge lead only the hit the last shot at the buzzer? I don't think there has ever been a situation in the last several years where so many people were so tight, once he hit the three, they burst. And by the way...I think Dee Brown's shooting is awful this season. People forget that because they see him hit shots from 5-10 feet behind the line, and that's great and all...but he just hasn't been shooting well.
-
Unfortunately not much. If I recall, some good RB went for 4th round picks this year. That's why I've never understood taking Benson when we already had 2 solid RB. I wonder if anyone is gonna mention that we got outcoached by Fox like Tiki did last week.
-
Why waste a challenge on something that won't be overturned? Use the Timeout for an additional forty seconds. That's why
-
Being a Colts fan must be like being a Cards fan...they've been great in the regular season, and have been in the playoffs for several years now but they're still without a championship. If the Bears weren't in the playoffs I would have been rooting for 'em.
-
I agree what you, partially because we don't have many other options. Unfortunately that's what we all said about Burnitz last year.

Okay, We Need Nicknames for Pierre and Murton
sherwood921 replied to dorjecub's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I like Juan "I'm so dehydrated I" Pierre -
No way. We'd cripple ourselves. In what way? Cedeno isn't going to play SS and he doesn't have the bat for second IMO. Pierre is going to sign a 3 or 4 year deal with the Cubs so that gets rid of Pie. The pitchers would hurt but they might be gone for a Dunn or Abreu anyway so why not get a bat that covers a postion that most teams don't have one? We still need a RF, and there aren't any good ones out there. What do we have left to trade at this point? After the Pierre trade and this, there's nothing even remotely close to Major League ready that's of any worth. It also rids you of any rotation depth you have. Now you're looking at Prior, Z, Wood, Maddux, Rusch, and Wellemeyer is the only starter that could step in unless you're JC. We've already dealt the top two AA arms, so Ryu, who isn't a great prospect is the best player that's closest to the bigs. Making that deal you settle SS, but you no longer have any trading chips to improve the team, and the only thing you get is a 30 year old average defensive SS that'll hit .350/.500 at 12.5 million per for 4 years. Terrible idea for the short and long-term. If there aren't any good RF, why not get a SS who produces like a RF? Then you can afford to go after one of those not so good RF.

Sure, if you don't mind waiting until May 1 for Nomar. We didn't offer arby. Shoot forgot about that...why couldn't this news have come a few days earlier?
-
I know this is unlikely, but what if we traded Aram for him and resigned Nomar to play 3B?
-
Man, this is going to make me get my hopes up for nothing, I know it :x

What did she say?
