  1. I don't want to hear anything ever again from Lou about the bullpen being overused. That was a ridiculous move.
  2. Hey, at least he put the ball in play and got the runner over. Baby steps...
  3. What'd you expect with the great Joel Pineiro on the mound? Now if Smoltz pitches a good game on Sunday, then it is obviously not meant to be and we might as well throw in the towel.
  4. That's why he through his bat into the rack in the dugout. I know his slumps are very, very annoying and he makes a lot of money, but to imply that he doesn't try is a little ridiculous. I definitely think he tries at the plate, but doesn't look like he tries to change anything with his approach or with his swing I get the idea he doesn't think he has to change anything. Like you said, I don't think it is completely a lack of effort, but more stubbornness. If that is the case, maybe a full season of struggling will change his mindset a little bit.
  5. I think Kings of Leon needs to be played a little more.
  6. Is there a see through fence or is it really completely open? Seriously? Yes, seriously. I assume there is a fence there, but I can't see it.
  7. Is there a see through fence or is it really completely open?
  8. A gapper between Soriano's bat and the ball maybe.
  9. This game is moving right along. It's looking like it will be a long day at work tomorrow.
  10. I thought so too until I saw the replay and he was playing WAY over in the hole. I think it was more positioning than range... not that he has good range either.
  11. Playoff push for Iowa or Tenn Tennessee's tied for first in their division and Iowa is 2 back in their division. That means both teams are full of future major league stars, right?
  12. It's going to suck watching the Cardinals win another World Series.
  13. I couldn't remember where I've heard that term before, but now I do... Tyrus Thomas.
  14. Don't forget the error, which magnifies the hit, blooper, and slow grounder.
  15. Everyone knows the Cubs' problem is that they aren't suited to play in large parks. Does this mean that next year Hendry will trade away our power bats for a team full of Juan Pierre's? http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/chi-20-cubs-bits-chicago-aug20,0,4964914.story
  16. According to the Chicago Tribune, the deal is now "imminent." http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/chi-biz-cubs-aug21,0,147196.story
  17. Hey, it worked in Colorado. Maybe it was just coincidence, but they sure turned their season around after their manager was fired.
  18. The 2004 team was a bigger disappointment, but at least they played something resembling good baseball for most of the season. This team is just extremely mediocre at best.
  19. I already have a trip to Pittsburgh planned in September and have tickets to all 3 games... big mistake.
  20. Do you guys think Ricketts watches these games and thinks the same things we do?
  21. Put down that bat Aaron. Don't even think about it!
