  1. Nearly half the budget being out is reason to celebrate?
  2. they're not really worth since the offense sucks so bad. so negative What's to be positive about? Chris Speier is the loneliest man in baseball.
  3. You and your empty threats. You'll keep watching this game no matter what. We all know it. :) I've got two more hours of Cub baseball to enjoy Cubs baseball before Conan comes on. :D But, I'll be tuning in to Bill Maher instead. :wink:
  4. He also set up about 30 feet in front of the warning track, and then had to run in about 15-20 feet to make the catch because he misjudged the distance.
  5. Bynum 2 handed that last one. His job is secured. :cheers:
  6. What does Bynum provide this team? We get Bynum and Cincinnati gets Brandon Phillips.
  7. Umpire has called a pretty good game tonight.
  8. Don't forget Kahlil Greene. He's getting better and better. He's jacked 5 HR's already.
  9. Was it a poor decision? It got Zambrano out of the game. And Dusty is known for racking up high pitch counts for his starters. IMO getting out of the inning with no runs allowed was way more urgent than chasing Z. At the same time, the Padres have one of the best defenses in baseball, a park that tends to keep balls in play and a struggling offense. There was no guarantee that the Cubs would pull Zambrano, a guy they struggled to hit all night.

  11. You called it. I rule. Don't worry my dudes. Aramis will save us next inning. Too late. Zambrano wants to be traded to a team that can score runs.
  12. if they score here he would ... Wouldn't whoever pitches the 8th get the win? No. Not that it matters now. Zambrano is the pitcher of record until someone else actually throws a pitch.
  13. Playing devil's advocate for a moment (which you won't find me doing in support of Dusty very often), but maybe Dusty was going with more solid defense in a known pitchers park? Babe Ruth would have trouble hitting balls out of this park, so going with extra speed with Bynum to manufacture a run? Nah.
  14. Routine single to center is a double against the Cubs.
  15. Wow! Web gem by Barfield. Giles charging hard and Barfield makes an over the shoulder catch.
  16. I've given him credit. And I have to admit, the Neifi/Macias 1/2 punch of last year seemed to generate more runs than this team is generating right now. :shock:
