  1. Fingers? :lol: Why do you think they call em fingers? You never see em fing. Oh, there they go.
  2. Disappointing... but thanks for the heads up.
  3. I saw him in the dugout earlier In the dugout? I wonder why he wasn't in the pen. No deli spread in the bullpen.
  4. I seem to recall a few years ago when Matt Clement was pitching against Alex Cora for 14 pitches. That went much quicker.
  5. yup Good god... Trammell now makes me miss Lou, who almost makes me miss Dusty. This is sad. Why can't we get a competant manager?
  6. I wasn't paying close attention. Were we just trying to sac bunt in the first freaking inning?
  7. Can you play 20 questions on a message board? Is it a righty?
  8. My prediction: Barrett to the DL. Gallagher is gonna be our backup catcher.
  9. For some reason, all I can think of at times like this is my high school chemistry class. Mr. Davenport would not let us rest until we balanced the equation, so I'm freaking out right now not knowing what on earth is going on to counter Gallagher coming up.
  10. Who here thinks that? He really improved the team from when he took over. They just kind of stagnated their 3rd year. My dad who is a diehard Tiger fan was telling me 2 years ago how good the Tigers were going to be last year. So yeah I think Leyland did kind of walk into a good situation and Trammell kind of got thrown under the Bus. I also think Trammell deserves more Hall of Fame consideration than he gets Not just consideration. If you look at his numbers, he's a no-doubter.
  11. I don't like Gathright by any means... but I wouldn't say no to acquiring him if we can get him for a nothing piece like Novoa or Eyre. It'd be nice to have him in the system just in case he proves that he can actually keep that OBP in the stratosphere with another year in AAA.
  12. I really think Pie brings a spark to them team..Before yesterday, I beleive they were like 12-9 with him..When he's there, the hitting seems more contagious and the players don't look so bored and out of it. I know I never take a fridge break when he's batting. Electrifying player. As for Soriano... Pie lets Soriano worry less about his defense and more about his hitting. Same can't be said for a Jones CF. Hell, I ripped apart my entire living room when I saw the lineup looking for my cell phone to make sure my friends knew he was in the game. If he does that for me, I can't imagine what he does for the rest of the team.
  13. I'd rather Gooz and Marmol be starting. Nothing quite like selling high on Marquis and Marshall. comparing Marshall to Marquis? that's harsh. Simply in the fact that their perceived value is probably a lot higher now than we're likely to see it for a while to come. I'd rather hold on to Marshall than Marquis, if it came to it.
  14. Jones in May hit .205/.263/.329

  16. I don't care if they get 9 in a row, just so long as they don't blow the lead. Or give me a coronary cause they get so close to blowing the lead. What is the pen's WHIP? I don't have the numbers in front of me, and I don't quite feel like calculating it (since I'd have to look back at retrosheet in order to exclude Gooz's starts)... sorry. Just for fun, though, I did decide to look up the WXRL for all the clubs. Cubs rank 29th... ironically, the only pen in the league that's been worse (in terms of when they decide to screw up just so much as how often they do) is the powerhouse bullpen put together by that baseball genius Wayne Krivsky in Cinci. But that bullpen has been about twice as bad as ours.

  19. Call for the freaking ball... jeez.
  20. I don't even want to know what you guys just secreted/excreted on yourselves.
  21. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
