    On a related note, please bring back "Jump" when the Cubs take the field. I'm sure it is just because I grew up watching all the games throughout the 80's and 90's, but no other song has the same connection to the Cubs. At least put it in the rotation along with the Tom Petty, U2, and Bon Jovi songs that they play currently.

    Is it too late for Ricketts to renege on his statement about Hendry after the season is over? I realize that the games don't mean anything now, but even independent of payroll this team is an complete embarassment. Bringing payroll into the equation, they are a disaster of epic proportions. It makes no sense whatsoever to allow the GM of a train wreck to hire the team's next manager.

    We probably should start saving now, because those tickets won't come cheap.

    Ok seriously Len, stop saying that Soriano's ball might have been a home run. You don't have to be a physics expert to tell that it was below the top of the fence and heading downward.

    What would their adjusted payroll be after all these moves? It seems the Yankees truly do have a limitless budget.
  6. Irrelevant Dude
    Apparently they haven't seen Lilly pitch.
  7. Irrelevant Dude
    Stay the course, Jim. We're still in this thing!
  8. Irrelevant Dude
    I just saw both guys on MLB Network (not sure who they were) say they thought Lilly would stay with the Cubs. Nice job Jim.
  9. Irrelevant Dude
    Only the Cubs can turn a valuable commodity with a very manageable contract (Lilly) into a virtual salary dump.

    Click for depression Noooooooooooooooooooooooo! Noooooooooooooooooooooooo! He dropped the ball!

    Because Soto is catching for the Phillies?
  12. Irrelevant Dude
    I sure am glad I sold my tickets to this one.
  13. Irrelevant Dude
    Yep. Commence trading in 3, 2, 1...
  14. Irrelevant Dude
    Nice composure Marmol.

    When does the WGN deal expire?
  16. Irrelevant Dude
    I thought that was out of question anyway. Aren't all the salary cap projections already figuring that Huet will be sent to the minors or elsewhere, thereby removing him from the cap picture?
  17. Irrelevant Dude
    Kosuke for Soto. Umm.... ok?
  18. Irrelevant Dude
    What is wrong with this guy? Strike 1 to Lee was 6 inches outside.
  19. Irrelevant Dude
    Good for Byrd. Those were two ridiculous strike calls.

    The high-pitched noise is back and worse than ever on tonight's broadcast. This has been going on for months. I really wish the Cubs could fix whatever the problem is with their equipment, because I'm about ready to mute the TV.
  21. Irrelevant Dude
    Hard to believe this team is 9 games under .500 after innings like that!
  22. Irrelevant Dude
    There you go Cleveland fans. It is God's fault.
  23. Irrelevant Dude
    This is true, but playing with LeBron will also probably extend Wade's career by lessening the beating that he takes on a nightly basis. He won't be the same player at the end of a 6 year deal, but will likely still be a very productive player.

    I'm admittedly not an expert on the NBA salary cap, but how is that possible? If the big 3 take 15 mil each they can sign Miller. Then they need to sign players on the minimum. Still possible but hard. That is assuming Beasley is gone, right? And if I'm another NBA GM, why would I do anything to help the Heat achieve world domination?

    In Game 1 of the 2007 NBA Finals the Cavaliers started Sasha Pavlovic, Drew Gooden, Larry Hughes, and Zydrunas Ilgauskas with Mike Brown on the bench. I think that qualifies and then some. The Heat can't afford players the caliber of 2007 Gooden, Hughes, or Ilgauskas. The Heat don't need players of that caliber. Exactly, I don't understand why everyone thinks Miami needs studs to back them up. Sure you need bench and role players but you DON'T need studs when you have 3 superstars on the same team. I think they will suffer a bit in the regular season due to their lack of depth and not wanting to rely on the "big 3" for heavy minutes every game. Once they tighten up their rotation in the playoffs however, the lack of depth will be much less of an issue.
