    Have you seen DLee run lately?
  2. Irrelevant Dude
    I'm not quite sure how, but I have a feeling Casey McGehee is going to break it up.

    The best part of this is Floyd coming into the game with the highest ERA among starters. Absolutely ridiculous, yet somehow funny.

    I'm nervous that Lou won't let Lilly take his no-hit bid into the 12th inning of a scoreless game.
  5. Irrelevant Dude
    I count closer to 5.

    This is truly an appropriate showcase of Chicago baseball.

    "The rulebook says that the first hit should be a clean hit."

    I liked his explanation of how the Cubs have finally found someone (Byrd) to break up their 2 right-handed hitters in the middle of the lineup. I don't think he realized that Byrd is also a right-handed hitter.

    Is Soriano hurt again? I know he has always been streaky, but I don't understand how he went through an extended stretch where he was the most dangerous hitter on the team and now he has been completely useless for quite awhile again. Why isn't there any middle ground?

    This team loves to strike out with runners on base.

    Trade Lee. Nady to 1B. Colvin to RF. Multiple problems solved.
  12. Irrelevant Dude
    A gift strike 1 call gets the Cubs out of the inning. I guess the ump owed them one.

    If the crying Indian commercial was re-created today, he would be crying because he just watched Cubs baseball...
  14. Irrelevant Dude
    What did you ever do?!?!?
  15. Irrelevant Dude
    TV angles can be deceiving..... but it looked to me like Nady should have caught both of Konerko's RBI singles. I thought the same thing. The one in the first inning looked catchable, and the one in the 7th looked fairly routine.
  16. Irrelevant Dude
    What the hell Nady?

    I heard Dan Bernstein on the radio the other day trying to educate fans on advanced baseball statistics, and was using FIP like it was the king of all pitching statistics. Whoever was with him (not Boers) was noticing that Jimenez wasnt among the top 10 pitchers in FIP and calling the stat out based on that. Dan's response was to defend that damn stat to the death and kept talking about how its more important than anything else you can look at because it's independant of fielding. I was just shaking my head. These stats are great, but people have to understand that there is not one single stat that determines the value or worth of an individual player. I enjoy listening to Boers & Bernstein and Bernstein is a very intelligent guy, but he infuriates me sometimes when he states his point of view as an indisputable fact. His defense of Jimenez not being one of the top 10 pitchers based on one statistic alone really made no sense.

    It is the city of Chicago's fault.

    http://static.foxsports.com/content/fscom/img/2010/06/10/0609-Derrek-Lee-Primary_20100610010302_660_320.JPG Not only has he stopped shaving, but in that photo he looks really pale and even sickly. He looks like he is in Week 3 of Cubs Survivor.

    Cubs are 11-20 in games decided by 2 or fewer runs. Santo says it is "ridiculous" and, for once, I agree with him.
  21. Irrelevant Dude
    I'm with you. The best part of any drive to the south is seeing that first Waffle House shining like a beacon on the side of the road.
  22. Irrelevant Dude
    "Name the attendance" Nice.
  23. Irrelevant Dude
    Another postgame gem from Lou tonight, who "doesn't want to talk about our offense anymore." There it is folks, the solution to our offensive problems. The best offense is a good defense I always say!
  24. Irrelevant Dude
    I have an idea. Let's give him 2 days off, then bat him cleanup again. Any day now someone will flip that magic switch that instantly turns the worst hitter in the major leagues into a run producer.
  25. Irrelevant Dude
    That is horrible. It would be nice to see the call overturned, but I'm just not sure what kind of precedent that would set for future games.
