  1. I can predict a line up for you: Soriano Jones Lee Ramirez Floyd DeRosa Kendall Theriot
  2. I'm going out with a bang this coming week. Pedro Martinez, Matt Cain, James Shields and Ervin Santana go on Monday and Jeremy Bonderman goes on Tuesday. Then I'll pick whichever two do the best in their first outing for my final two starts. No playoffs for me, but it's been a fun season.
  3. I'm kinda happy Marmol got a light workout today. Just need everyone else to shut Houston down today. One more time through the heart of their order.
  4. Care to elaborate? Lamb hit a foul ball that was an absolute shot, just a little bit ahead of it. Gracias!
  5. Marmol went 2 innings yesterday. I don't believe we will see him today. That was 2 days ago. Oh yeah. I guess I've erased yesterday's game from my memory bank. For good reason.
  6. Marmol went 2 innings yesterday. I don't believe we will see him today.
  7. Cause of Fox's stupid Saturday baseball rules. Every game is blacked out until 7(I think) local time. I thought if they started before a certain time you were ok too? You're kidding me right?? they black out every game on saturdays?? even the ones they're not producing? No. The East coast 7pm games and the west coast 7pm games are all available on MLB EI today.
  8. no the astros will hit a few more homers.I miss premium. Also, not to say who will get how many runs, but the final score will most certainly prove that it will take at least 3 runs to win this game. Then get a real job. Earn some money. That's uncalled for. Watch it.But him saying his misses premium to ignore people he disagrees with isn't? Insulting someone who can't afford premium doesn't even closely resemble someone wanting to ignore posts where people give up on a baseball game in the 2nd inning.
  9. It's kind of hard to field a AAA team for the final few games when everyone on the roster is in Chicago. :D But seriously, more guys are likely to get the call once the minor league season is over. Good thing they (Iowa) aren't in a playoff hunt, because that tends to delay the call ups even more.
  10. The guy who needs to move closer to the plate is Theriot.
  11. I think he also provides a safety valve in the event a starter has a bad outing. Instead of burning out the bullpen for 8 innings, you can use Tracshel. Every game is important from this point forward, but it's also important to be able to provide a bit of rest for the starters and the bullpen when the situation arises.
  12. yeah, he is available...hendry said it during the game yesterday...but as i was making this list i put him in there...however, wouldn't they have to take someone off of the 25 man to put him on there? that means i am missing someone and i don't know who... :?: I think you are missing Jacque.
  13. What is Pagan's deal? Is he on the DL? I saw him in uniform after one of the Brewer games.
  14. I think Tracshel is auto eligible because the deal was made before the deadline and because there was room on the 40 man. Even though he may not wear a uniform for the first time until sometime tomorrow, I believe he is eligible.
  15. Strange argument. I'm shocked that anyone finds this deal to be a bad one. If Marquis and/or Lilly goes down to some sort of fluke injury, who gets inserted into the rotation? Some unproven arm? Some bullpen guy who would need weeks to get stretched out to 5 innings or more? Tracshel is a safety valve, if nothing more. He was also one of the better arms available at the deadline. Is it better to have him on your own roster or on a team that you might be playing in the playoffs? St. Louis sure could have used him. He's probably better than Kip Wells. I like Scott Moore, but there isn't a place for him in Chicago. Giving up Cherry hurts a little more, but no matter who traded for Tracshel, someone was going to have to give something up to get him.
  16. Guys on the DL and guys on the 40 man roster all have the potential of being on the 25 man roster for playoffs, I believe.
  17. I don't think he'd be any worse than Marquis. Dempster has never been a lock down starter, but he was an innings eater before the wear and tear of a long baseball season got the better of him. As good as his slider is right now, I think he'd be alright moving back to the rotation. But, I'd rather see Guzman or Prior (if he comes back) or even Wood lock up the last spot(s).
  18. He threw nothing but fastballs to the first guy he struck out last night. I would like to see more of that. It's great until the opposing hitters start sitting on fastballs.
  19. Are we writing off Guzman and Prior completely? I think Dempster is ready for a move back to the rotation also.
  20. He threw nothing but fastballs to the first guy he struck out last night.
