  1. Kerry Wood redux ? When did Kerry Wood have good command of the fastball?
  2. Mostly straight fastball, but unusually good command of it.
  3. Lance Berkman got his second double of the season last night. The Anti-Granderson.
  4. We are going to have a dominant, middle-of-the-order college hitter who plays a premium defensive position fall into our lap and we are going to blow it. Only the Cubs.
  5. He's 18 and posted an .894 OPS at low-A as a 17-year old last season. Thank you. I think most people fail to understand how incredible that is. Scouting well and at least holding his own in leagues way too advanced for his age is a great combination.
  6. Martinez and either Milledge or Gomez would be fine, too. Then, Milledge/Gomez to the braves for Yunel Escobar. Soriano-Pie-Martinez-Ramirez-Escobar-2B-Lee-Wieters As long as we're dreaming...
  7. If I'm lucky enough to get Martinez, I don't much care about the second guy, but Heilman is good. This year: WHIP=0.95, BAA=.198 Last year: WHIP=1.16, BAA=.231
  8. Fernando Martinez and Aaron Heilman for Zambrano.
  9. Seems likely that it's Howry. He hasn't pitched in a few days and his arm is probably barely hanging on after having been abused by Crusty.
  10. http://www.usatoday.com/sports/scores107/107154/MLB732180.htm?loc=interstitialskip
  11. Carlos Zambrano has proven to be extremely easy to control.
  12. The most impressive thing about Kroeger is his relatively low strikeout rate. He has a very high BABIP, but there's plenty of room for that to come down and still have a good stat line.
  13. How comical is it that the Braves scratched John Smoltz from his scheduled start today? I wonder how that discussion went. Was the question "Why waste Smoltz on the Cubs?" asked?
  14. Does Jim Hendry count as a player?
  15. The goal right now should be not breaking the franchise record for losses.
  16. It seems highly unlikely that the rumor is false, as Pie was not in the lineup last evening for AAA Iowa.
  17. I'm sorry, but those players are gone.
  18. Might very well be Murton that is traded. I hope it isn't that because that also means Jones is the everyday RF. Given the current state of affairs, our everyday right fielder should be Angel Pagan.
  19. Get ready to be shocked.
  20. The Rooster had a bad back today and couldn't go.
  21. If we have a lefthanded relief pitcher in the bullpen to whom we're paying $900,000 who can't face a few righthanded hitters without collapsing, shame on Jim Hendry.
  22. Rich Hill has been attending The Michael Barrett School for Baseball Instincts.
