  1. You are correct, GR, but I believe Raisin's first sentence was directed at everyone.
  2. So they will really be in trouble once Dmitri Young and Christian Guzman come back down to earth.
  3. Oh, and thanks for the info. Good stuff.
  4. Are they still projecting Hillenmeyer as a starting outside linebacker? I think he's the weakest link.
  5. Didn't mean to hijack the thread. I just thought Church would have been a guy to include on your list. Nice work. That had to take some time and effort.
  6. RFK seems to sap everyone's SLG%. How do the home/roads look for all the Nats players?
  7. That's very true. I probably should have listed him, although he was basically unavailable with how much the Nationals were reportedly asking for him. I mentioned him mainly because Westbrook was mentioned. It seemed like the Cubs had as much interest in Church as they did in Westbrook.
  8. I agree with IMB. He looks like a different pitcher altogether. His fastball has next to no movement. Typically pitchers with zero movement on their fastball don't ever get a top prospect label.
  9. Good thread. But, one name that I don't see listed is Ryan Church as a possible trade addition.
  10. 3.34 runs is about all the Cubs will need unless Redding can hit home runs as awesome as he pitches. :clown:
  11. So, what's going on? Is Briggs going to play this year? Is Peterson the back up for Benson? Who is going to be starting in Tank's spot? Is Anderson getting a starting gig this year at Right End? Can we get a whole season out of Mike Brown? Who have the Bears added and who have they gotten rid of? I need to get caught up without doing a bunch of research.
  12. No kidding. He isn't going to last long at this rate.
  13. Almost forgot, while I was on the phone cancelling my Insider subscription, the guy on the other end said they are currently running a special that knocks the price of Insider down to 29.95. I doubt they were ever going to tell me this. Give new people a better deal and keep screwing over the old subscribers. It wasn't enough to keep me. :D
  14. It's actually the 7th. Shows how much I've been paying attention. What little value that I thought Izturis provided is long gone.
  15. I'm impressed that Lou went with Theriot at SS yesterday with Marquis on the mound. I think that's the first start this year for Marquis where Izturis wasn't at SS.
  16. Well, that mistake just cost ESPN $40. When I couldn't log in, I sent them an email through their comment section that basically just said that if Ben Sheets sitting on my bench on Saturday ends up being the difference between a win and a loss, I will be cancelling my Insider subscription. Sure enough, I lost by less than the 33 points Ben Sheets would have scored for me. It isn't just this one thing. It's been a lot of stuff building up. I called ESPN this morning to cancel and it was kind of cool to be able to name all the stuff that I can't stand about ESPN and the guy took it pretty well. I now have an extra $30 bucks (prorated refund) to spend on something better than ESPN Insider.
  17. Matt Cain's ERA is almost 80 points lower than Zambrano's, and he's got 2 wins and 9 losses. (3.38 ERA to Zambrano's 4.20)
  18. Are there any guys out there that aren't worth the ink on their 10m check? If Jones and Izturis are going somewhere, that's probably who it will be for.
  19. We have a $70 million payroll. It's not great, but it's not awful either. Narron needed to be fired about a month ago. It's about time. He was by far the worst manaer in baseball. Yeah, but you have to admit that it's kind of funny that the GM of the Reds has the audacity to fire the manager when he should have fired himself first.
  20. Yep, my Bonderman/Wainwright boner cost me a win this week. Wow.
  21. Anybody ever hear how their walk out worked out?
  22. I picked the Mariners to win their division at the beginning of the season. LAA had a better rotation, but I felt the bats that Seattle assembled could keep pace with the Angels. Something must be up with Hargrove.
