  1. I think that Lilly and hopefully Hill can keep their ERA under 4. Hill in a full season could produce a ERA around 3.5 (or less). and I think Lilly being taken out of the AL East and put in the NL Central can put his ERA a little lower than 4. This is the NL Central we are talking about here guys. :lol:
  2. I guess who I would have play CF depends on situation. I would only like to have Floyd as a 4th OF. If we unfortunatly had to keep Jones he would play CF with Floyd as backup. I would have Floyd start unless he proved he could play 140 games this year. Still I don't know if he would accept a 4th OF position. If we got Church and dumped Jones it would still be the situation. I just think floyd could be a threat off the bench. And if he could play everyday, I think I would dump Jones and play Floyd in right and Soriano in center. Floyd, when healthy in 05 had more HRs better OBP and SLG than Jones last year.
  3. Agreed about Church. That is the next big deal Hendry could pull off. However, I have to say I am intrigued with the possiblility about Floyd. I know he is a injury concern, but if we can't manage Church I'd like to see Floyd possibly being platooned in the outfield. The guy can still hit for power. I wouldn't mind seeing a one year deal for him if all else fails.
  4. There has been a lot of optimisim and pessimism in many of the different threads and I thought it would be more interesting to focus it to one thread. In general, Mr. Hendry is doing exactly what we wanted him to do. Find people. Now how good of job is he doing it in this very mediocre market? I like DeRosa, Soriano, and Lilly I can live with since Schmit wanted to be on the west coast. Marquis? I don't know. It would be great if he could post a winning record, but this is probably the first move of Hendry's I did not like this offseason. And I think that is saying a lot with what we have already gotten. If I were to grade him I'd give him a B. He kept Ramirez and Wood (Thank God) and gotten some power and pitching in Soriano and Lilly The line-up doesn't look the best in the NL, but we'll have Lee hopefully for the year. It would be nice if Prior could return for a number 2 starter, but I think we have better starting pitching already than what we did at the start of last year. (Saying that Hill can keep up his last 2 month of the season performance he did last year) It's a decent rotation. I don't know about many of the posters but I'm optimistic. Hendry has made the moves with a strong chance of more to come. So what does everyone else think?
  5. Ok ok I've read...most ... of the pages on here and I haven't seen anyone bring up the fact that you know IF (and its a big IF) Hendry can finally put together a team worthy enough to go to the World Series and get this team to the World Series and I don't know maybe win it for the first time in 99 years, he can bankrupt the Tribune Company for all I care. I see it as if we win the world series sometime soon I'll live with Sorieno for 6,7 more years and not care how much money we give him. Now Hendry start overpaying for pitching...better yet trade for some.
  6. You tell me I have to see Neifi Perez in the line up for the rest of the year? Time to call up Patterson. Todd you're awesome give Hendry a piece of your mind on the way out.
  7. You can also see the story where we traded Dontrelle Willis to get Antonio Alfonseca. :P (cries in background)
  8. Well Z better be crazy tonight, and when I mean crazy I mean him being his normal self and rack up a few Ks. I would love nothing more than putting a broom on a few of my teachers' doors.
  9. No, this is nothing new just a question. Quit reading if you want a story. First off, go Big Z tomorrow. I would love that win especially since I live in central Missouri. But I was wondering if anyone had a picture of Zambrano breaking his bat against the Marlins earlier this year. I watched the game when it happened and thought it was one of the coolest things he has done this year. He is pretty much the only reason why I care about the season. I hope he stays in contention for the Cy and that we put money forth to keep him. I have one picture but I was wondering if anyone had one that showed his facial expression or something. Anything anybody can do would be very much appreciative. Thanks
  10. Hey first time poster here, I thought I'd try it out for once. I read a lot around here, I like this site, but I never thought I'd say something intelligent to post but here I go. After looking at the main page at Cubs.com and seeing the preview of "Cubs counting on youngsters Cedeno, Murton" I see the pic of Cedeno and think....Hey wait, When did we get A-Rod? Does anyone else see a some what resemblance? I see that and think Oh this may be a sign! I like to see the team use young players, I think if other teams i.e. Braves can use young players and be successful maybe we can. And seeing Ronny look like A-Rod makes me think he could be a big suprise. So I just wanted to see what everyone else thought. We need some positive things to talk about this time of year when we all still have hope about the season. So there you go.
