  1. WHEW. Good to hear that it wasn't another Cubs pitcher going down with an injury. We have enough of those already. Thanks for the update!
  2. Should be RH Jesse Estrada (4-7, 4.95 ERA) going for the Chiefs; don't know who the Bees pitcher will be.
  3. I'll look for you on tv, Vance. Prior sure knows how to pull the pitching matchups.
  4. Simokaitis waiting for his first hit. I didn't listen to the game, but Grant Johnson was interviewed on the pre-game show. Sounds like everyone he knows will be going to Kane County to see him pitch on Monday. He said locating the fastball and getting his slider working well was the secret to success yesterday.
  5. I added Prior's stats in. :!:
  6. I'll be astonished if Cedeno gets any playing time at 3rd. Pleased, but astonished.
  7. Maybe Corey - Neifi - Macias can bat 1-2-3 tomorrow. :pale: Since Prior is pitching, we may see Blanco, too. Hope Aramis heals up quickly.
  8. It's been like this for a long time. Hoping that the new phpbb is coming soon... i know. What's the problem, exactly? Check this link here. In addition to that, the board is also getting spikes of guest traffic, which slows everything down as well. *sigh*
  9. Ronny has to protect Barrett! GO CUBS!
  10. I hope so, but I doubt it. GO CUBS!
  11. I think Maddux winds up with Barrett tomorrow. Prior gets Blanco on Friday. Williams and Barrett on Saturday. Toss-up on the catcher on Sunday for Z.
  12. MILWAUKEE: no picture, says If they're here Who's Brewing the Beer?
  13. Fred's database is truly remarkable. GO CUBS!
  14. All right. I'm not out to start wars. I'm a Cubs fan, I hate the Cardinals and I hate the Sox. I can live w/ getting kicked off a Sox board. I'm not going to get kicked off a Cubs board. That, I cannot live with. I'm not trying to start a war. Good. Welcome to the forums! I look forward to your Cubs-related posts.
  15. Apparently you don't understand. If your purpose for being here is to try to start messageboard wars, your visit will be brief.
  16. Posters are responsible for what they post here. If you were banned elsewhere, that's your problem.
  17. I'm not worried. I think Wilson is the fallback option. And I think other deals will be made. Hope I'm right. :queen:
  18. He might need to rest up after a day like that! :wink:
  19. The Cubs will play 5 consecutive day games today - Sunday. I haven't checked the forecast, but it was plenty hot there today. The bleacher ushers went around spraying people with water. I hope that the scheduling means that we will see Cedeno pull at least one start over the next 4 games.
  20. Eric Patterson is in the Team Photo. Hmmmm. They clearly meant to say that his ERA is 1.43. :D Season Totals AB H Ks BBs OAvg OOBP OSlG OOPS IPs ERA WHIP 304 54 87 27 .178 .262 .247 .508 88 1.43 0.92 Vs RHs AB H Ks BBs OAvg OOBP OSlG OOPS 171 27 51 7 .158 .225 .199 .423 Vs LHs AB H Ks BBs OAvg OOBP OSlG OOPS 133 27 36 20 .203 .307 .293 .600 ETA: My stats agree with MILB, but most of them are drawn from MILB box scores. If BA has a separate source, perhaps that would explain the .10 discrepency. EETA: Though I'd think that earned runs and IPs should be fairly easily verified, so it was probably just a misprint.
  21. That was a MONSTER shot. On the pregame show, they said that Jesse Shmidt (sp?) was promoted from Boise to replace Mallory. They also said that there's still one open slot on the 25-man Chiefs roster.
  22. If Hairston can play a shaky CF, I'd think he could play a shaky LF and at least get on base. Though I'd be interested in knowing what his OBP is once his pickoffs and caught stealings are taken into account. I suppose it would be most difficult to factor in the times he should have scored from 3rd but inexplicably did not.
  23. I think they're also planning on showing This Old Cub after the Peoria Chiefs game on July 9. But I can't find the link right now ... I'll check back.
  24. I've liked Karros, too, when I've heard him. I wish the Tribune Co. hadn't felt a need to run out and sign Brenly to, what, a 5-year deal? I definitely like Len more than Chip, but I'm still blah on Brenly, and I'm not sure that's going to change much in the coming years.
