IWU_CUBS_FAN

Can't wait to see it again on Baseball Tonight and listen to the hosts talk about how much of a trooper Eckstein is. they won't show highlights...the yankees and boston are playing and there isn't enough time to cover the other teams in the majors tonight

yea that wave is something else in this situation

That's baller money. http://www.tradebit.com/usr/djmixtapez/pub/9001/Ballin.jpg[/img]

there's a cubs game on tomorrow? ugh :roll:

I would hope he would make those plays. He really did not have to range into the hole to make a play. Everything was hit right at him. Im still not that confident with him at ss. Are you confident with Cesar Izhoribble at SS? Not trying to pick on you directly dude, but I really can't stand the philosophy of "good" defense making up for a pathetic bat...I really can't. Im confident with Izzy making the defensive plays at the ss position. However, im not confident with him swinging the bat. I value defense pretty high on a baseball team. The ss position, in my opinion, is a very demanding spot on the field that needs to be filled by someone who fields the ball consistently. Can Theriot be that guy? We will find out. He is athletic enough to play it, but can he play consistently like Izturis has shown he can? When has Izturis shown that? He's been injury prone for awhile. In addition to his horrible bat and recently spotty D, he's a liability to go down at any given time for an extended period. He's not as injury prone as Wood, but expecting him to miss at least 40-50 games a year is not unrealistic. I don't understand why we think he can be a reliable everyday shortstop. He has had half of one good season, that was about it. Funny what a gold glove will do for you. this is the most true statement ever about judging cesar the horrible on his one good half season in LA. Cubs aren't scoring runs, Theriot is a table setter, and honestly can theriot have a weaker arm that david eckstein...i think not and that works pretty well for the cardinals cuz eckstein gets on base

I agree. If our pitching holds up and we keep getting hits, we'll eventually win close games. i concur

i hope that theriot playin well at short makes ronny expendable when they call the 5th starter up next week that way they can go with 12 pitchers

Lou, I appreciate you putting THE RIOT at shortstop finally, but Matt Murton deserves better than this...i mean if you're gonna put floyd in the two hole why not murton...i mean its not like floyd is hitting a lot of HRs to justify it...floyd=preston wilson when he bats in the two hole Nuts and Bolts, Nuts and Bolts, Murton's gettin screwed

second

there's a cubs game tomorrow? ugh :roll:

wet tshirt contest...plesac vs. gail fischer
