  1. Dude, Walker's been slumping. He needs day off against a righty.
  2. Apparently Dusty left Theriot chained to the bench in the visitors' dugout in San Francisco. I hope Grady Little has the key. Ryan's probably getting hungry.
  3. Anybody else old enough to remember Cliff Johnson in left field at Wrigley? It was only three games but it was high comedy. End. Of. Thread.
  4. We need Wood.
  5. I agree. Things will be ugly at home. Also, this will be the newest excuse for poor play. It's not a new excuse. Dusty used it last year.
  6. It's not the number of games back, or even how many teams are in front of them. It's how this team is playing and how we expect the season to go based on past experience with this leadership group. Getting Derek Lee back does not make up for all the deficiencies in this line-up. Getting Prior and Wood back does not do enough to recover from the continued stupid level of play by this team. With apologies to Ron White, you can't fix stupid.
  7. Apparently Kerry was in Des Moines last night too. Anybody in Des Moines know if he's been hanging out at Johnny's Hall of Fame tipping a few back with the locals?
  8. If there's one thing Jeremi Gonzalez can do it's eat.
  9. If Baker gets fired Rothschild should too. And Clines and Matthews should be arrested for impersonating major league coaches.
  10. There is absolutely no point in looking at the standings. We've seen this movie before (2004, 2005). The end is just starting closer to the opening scene in 2006. I'll continue to watch though. But then I rubberneck at car wrecks too.
  11. I predict that the outfield will be littered with trash from the bleachers at least once this weekend.
  12. KXNO Radio in Des Moines in the I-Cubs radio outlet. Not sure if it's available on-line. You can also order webcasts of the games at http://www.iowacubs.com. Click on the IowaCubs.tv link on the home page. Des Moines Register story on Wood's start: http://desmoinesregister.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060512/SPORTS0301/605120415/1053 The I-Cubs' PR guy is responsible for assigning uniform numbers at the start of the season. Apparently he always holds back No. 34 so Kerry can use it when he makes his rehab start. Even keeps the jerseys in his office so they don't get assigned by mistake. That'd be funny if it wasn't so sad.
  13. So we've got roughly 30 back-up second basemen on the roster but not one right-handed hitting corner outfielder who can platoon with Jacque. I love my team. I really do.
  14. Hey Bruce, what was the reaction to Dusty's denial that he told a SF writer he was upset he hadn't received his extension yet?
  15. "You guys... you lollygag the ball around the infield. You lollygag your way down to first. You lollygag in and out of the dugout. Do you know what that makes you? Larry?" "Lollygaggers!" "Lollygaggers."
  16. Reading the story the first thing I'm reminded of is Tommy Lasorda's Dave Kingman rant.
  17. We need Z to get ejected in the 1st and then go on a bat swinging rampage....maybe turn over the food table in the clubhouse and decapitate a few gatorade coolers And beat Neifi into a coma.
  18. I was just going to post that. Stevie Wonder could do better than Neifi at this point.
  19. The rumor is he has Alzheimer's.
  20. Wait, he owns the Clippers too?
  21. Ryan Doumit is moving to first to accomodate Ronny Paulino behind the plate. I thought I read on here yesterday that Doumit was hurt.
