  1. Murton hasn't been in the bigs very long, but from what I've seen of him so far, the person most qualified to be giving hitting advice in the Cubs dugout is Matt Murton.
  2. Intervention....seriously...you neeeed help. You have to admit that's just more fun than saying "I'd prefer Dmitri Young". I just got that after reading it 10 times. It took me about 20.
  3. I gave up tequila shots the night I found myself vomiting uncontrollably in a strip club urinal. RETIRED! That was nearly 20 years ago, and it's one lesson I'll never forget. But, I still drink margaritas! :D
  4. I think everyone needs to take a deep breath and step away from the ledge.
  5. Cedeno and Murton haven't disappointed. Pie could breathe some life into this team. Sure, he's probably not entirely ready, but they discussed bringing him up last year before the injury. Atlanta sure doesn't seem to have any trouble mixing and matching rookies with their veterans.
  6. I actually wouldn't mind that at all. Though, I'd probably still bring up Restovich also. DFA Bynum and Pie can play against the righties and Restovich plays against the lefties. Restovich becomes the big bopper off the bench.
  7. Just remember that we all have to have our margaritas before you get yours. So, you'd better get busy. There' quite a few of us.
  8. Oh, it is Friday, isn't it. That's right! Yes, I will have a margarita!
  9. If it's any consolation, the next newest member should be along shortly. It's a pretty short lived job title.
  10. Nice sig. I am very impressed with Murton's veteran qualities.
  11. Okay, I might be stretching it a bit to say mysteriously, but it's just another in a long line of freak accidents. I suppose now you're going to tell me it wasn't an accident. :D
  12. I only read the first 2 posts in this thread, but that was my thinking exactly after reading the first one. If Lee is only good for a couple of extra wins per year, maybe we should have given Neifi, Mabry and Hairston that 65m. Joking of course. And Lee isn't missing a whole year anyway.
  13. Nope. Karros got injured in the playoffs against Atlanta. Robert Fick is the culprit.
  14. Edit: You are THE beer fetcher. :D
  15. Well, until the next ROOKIE who registers takes your place, why, yes, yes you are a beer fetcher. We reserve the right to haze our newbies. It's a longstanding ritual here. :wink: The good news is you'll be able to tell the next ROOKIE to get YOU a beer. :D
  16. I believe he only missed one start.
  17. Nomar blowing out his groin as he attempts to run to 1st base. Carlos Lee going spikes high on Todd Walker. Sammy Sosa's boombox mysteriously yet spontaneously combusting. Neifi Perez and his toothpick legs, healthy as a horse. I don't get it.
  18. Welcome, ROOKIE! Now, bring me a beer. :D
  19. Well, since they still let Barry Bonds wear body armor for a supposed injury from ions ago, I trust they'll now let Lee wear full on football gear when he takes the field from now on. :D
  20. I think the player the Cubs should be targeting is a guy who can play other positions besides 1st. When Lee comes back, that player needs to be able to do something other than just pinch hit since Lee pretty much plays everyday.
  21. Aardsma's breaking ball broke too soon, which gave Dodger hitters time to lay off. It had as much break as Williamson's breaking ball, but Williamson's broke later, which got the Dodger hitters to commit. His fastball was pretty much money. He was spotting it pretty well, also. Unfortunately, he had to rely on it too much because he couldn't rely on his breaking ball.
  22. Mabry can play a little 1b also. Gets an extra lefty bat in the line up. He was already out of the game tonight, so Walker was the only other option.
  23. More like Ronny Cedeno saved us. I heart Ronny. :oops: Neifi started the rally. :wink: Trust me. I was being sarcastic with the Neifi saved us comment. But, I'm happy he contributed to the Cubs come from behind win.
  24. Nice come back win. NEIFI SAVED US! Costly victory, however.
