  1. Bottom of the order doing the damage again today. Just wait until the top of the order gets it together.
  2. Izturis proving me wrong. I'm cool with that.
  3. Has Jacque Jones been ahead in a count yet this year?

    Week 1

    I think I just lost 2 starts for the remainder of this week. Detroit and Toronto (Bonderman and Halladay) cancelled their game because it was only 29 degrees. Meanwhile, the Cubs and Reds are playing in 35 degrees. AL teams are wimps.
  5. I'm expecting the Cub bats to toss up lots of XBH's today.
  6. I like what Pittsburgh did this offseason. Nady and LaRoche are a nice complement to Bay. Get Freddy Sanchez healthy and find someone else who is respectable at the top of the order, and it's not a bad team at all. How much damage can Bay really do in a season with solid support behind him in the order? We shall soon see. My predictions have Cincinnati finishing last.

    Week 1

    Your hitting is far superior to mine, but my pitching is what will carry me this year. Depending on weather, I still have starts from Wainwright, Bonderman and Halladay for the rest of the week. I'm just going to tough it out at utility.
  8. Yeah, that is a bunch of crap. I'm only 80 miles from Anaheim, 100 miles from Los Angeles and a little over 300 miles to Phoenix, and the only games they blackout for me in San Diego are the Padres.
  9. I'm perfectly fine with him at lead off. And I probably won't be changing my mind on that anytime soon.
  10. I got through okay last night and this morning, but it's still not available for order yet at Cox. So, it's probably not going to be available yet on the smaller cable companies yet, either. My 5 day trial at MLB.TV is up after today. I'm not getting rid of it until I can order EI. It would be a shame if I would have to make Cox pay for it after my trial is up, but I WILL make them pay. I guess they shouldn't have announced to the world that they could be up and running in an hour once the deal went down, eh?
  11. Alright. Enough now.
  12. Sounds like the little cable companies will have an opportunity to air it, so I would say yes. I can't order it yet. Maybe tomorrow?
  13. Arroyo's stuff looked nastier than Lilly's, but oddly enough, it appeared a lot of the Cub hits today came off of breaking balls.
  14. i dont. he was a very arrogant jerk when we met him in spring training the 1st year he was on the cubs. hopefully we all get remembered for the one time we may meet someone! First impressions mean everything.
  15. He just went deep for his first dinger of the year.
  16. And since this thread has been dug up from the trenches and hijacked all in a matter of minutes, let's give a big hand to Ted Lilly in his first outing in a Cub uniform. Outstanding performance! =D>
  17. I don't have any issues with the offense. The weather was brutal tonight and Arroyo had filthy stuff. Harang was outstanding as well. Murton looked terrible against Harang. This team will be scoring plenty of runs. We just need performances on the mound like Lilly had tonight more times than not, and they will win lots of games.

    Week 1

    If you want to bench your starters for the rest of the week, I'll let you. :D Meanwhile, I put Gomes in at Utility and Baldelli on the bench since Baldelli had a hamstring problem. Baldelli is playing in Gomes' place at DH and I'm getting nothing at Utility. Can I switch these guys? Gomes has zero at bats so far this year.
  19. Looked like the wind was playing some havoc on Theriot. The main thing is he is making the catches.
  20. PARTY AT MY HOUSE! I can't get it ordered yet, though. I just tried and they haven't got it set up yet.
  21. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  22. Exciting to see the bottom of the order coming through today.
