That statement applies to me last week relating to Marshall. If I had I would have won. And if I would have inserted Milton Bradley into my line up the day he came off the DL, I probably still would have beaten your team with Marshall in there. And if Rolen didn't miss the entire weekend series, I might have beaten you by a much larger margin. :D

Speaking of roster moves...... Is it legal to pick up a guy and stash him in your minors when he is currently playing in the big leagues? Doesn't sound right to me. Yunel Escobar went 4-4 yesterday for the Braves and was picked up and stashed in GHS's minor leagues.

Neifi just needs a change of scenery.

Beer Jon, and lots of it Beer? Try tequila.

Lou's mom is still alive.

Z and EPatt? Not a chance. Z for Adenhart and Wood or maybe Saunders and Wood or maybe Mathis and Wood, but there is no way I'd expect to have to include a prospect when trading a very young, durable major league starter for a prospect. -
Personally, I think they should suspend the whole team for the rest of the year, maybe longer.

Fun week. Well, for everyone, except Abuck. Lots of close match ups. Sorry to beat you, NC. I know how frustrating it is to be the 2nd top scorer for the week and lose. I would have been pissed if I lost this week. Luckily, Bonderman turned things around after the 1st inning. I have lots of choices on the mound this week with Halladay, Cain and Shields each going twice, so I'm expecting mammoth points from my pitching staff this week.

I think the Mets make the most sense. They could have Pedro and Zambrano for the stretch run, and pretty much make them a lock to go to the World Series.

Wow, the Cardinals have been awful

The title of this thread makes me feel a bit embarrassed lately. -
If you want to get right down to it, this WHOLE TEAM sucks. Why bother isolating anyone in particular? Need some "facts"? The freaking Washington Nationals have more wins than the Chicago Cubs right now. The $20m Florida Marlins are better than the Cubs. The San Francisco Giants are a better team than the Cubs right now. Have you seen their line up? That team can't hit their way out of a wet paper bag. Tampa Bay is a better team than the Cubs when you consider the divisions they play in. Kansas City is sneaking up on the Cubs. The whole team sucks. Something needs to be changed.

Typically, I would say Bonderman and Santana will run circles around Washburn and Jennings, but Bonderman faces Cleveland and that team can flat out rake, doesn't matter who is on the mound. Santana is awesome at home, and he is pitching at home again on Sunday. Rolen is probably done for the rest of the weekend at the very least. It looks like he's DL bound again. Wainwright might be available if anyone wants to part with a 3b (assuming Rolen goes on the DL). I won't be around at all this weekend to see how everything plays out. So, good luck NC. Although you may not need it. Oh, and your stupid relievers don't need anymore stupid points!

It was just a tough first two months. They'll get it straightened out in June. June couldn't possibly be worse than April or May, right? Huh? What? Oh. Today is June. Nevermind. Blow it up!
-
I need do overs. I should have started Wainwright. Dammit!
-
This post needed to be bumped, because it's classic.
-
By the way, I thought long and hard about going with Wainwright instead of Bonderman. I'm very scared of the Cleveland Indians on Sunday.

Well, you just did.

I'll bet, in his mind, there is no validity to any of a sportswriters ideas (or message board poster). And that's quite unfortunate. Because, he could learn a lot hanging out here. At least he earned enough money from the Cubs these past 5 years to retire, since that's probably what he'll have to do once he's gone from this organization. Who, in their right minds, would give him another chance? He was given the GM job with an ever increasing payroll, one of the top minor league organizations in baseball and much roster flexibility (limited guaranteed long term contracts. The sky was the limit. Basically, he was given what any GM would dream of having at their disposal. How is that working out right now? Not so good.

Hey Juan...... What happened to the live TBA updates? It looks like it went bye bye.
-
You're going to regret not trading me Fielder when you had the chance.
-
Don't have to "remember". Look no farther than SS and you sorta get a deja vu tingling sensation.
-
Refreshing my memory, if a guy comes off the DL in the middle of the week, can he be replace someone in the line up right away?
-
I think it's a moot point at this juncture. Fishbulb appears to be running that team now.
-
An outfield with Magglio Ordonez and Carlos Beltran would have looked pretty good about right now. But, who needs those guys when we have Jacque Jones and Angel Pagan?
