  1. For me it's less depressing to think of his contract as a 5 year deal starting next year, rather than an 8 year deal with 5 years remaining.
  2. Maybe they're keeping him in for his bat.
  3. I know I pointed that out awhile back. Funny that they are promoting their team based on a first round series they ultimately lost, with several big moments that were made by a player that bolted for one of our big rivals after the season. I guess their 2009/10 motto can't really be, "We're putting all our eggs in one basket for the 2010 offseason."
  4. If Smoltz goes to the Cardinals, he will be 2003 Smoltz all over again.
  5. That sounds really funny if you read it in Tracy Morgan's voice.
  6. Followed by the ensuing chase and clueless security guard picking it up by its tail.
  7. I know its not what you were asking, but he only has 2 singles today. In other words, I'll put a billion dollars against it at 3000:1. Do I have to pay up front?
  8. I thought he was out at full speed, but after seeing the replay I think it was the correct call.
  9. I think he's daydreaming. Nah. He is trying to figure out how to get Aaron Miles into this game.
  10. It seems like the Cubs never win a late west coast game. I always end up going to bed tired and angry.
  11. They Cubs have not had a hit on a 3-0 pitch since last year. That's what I thought he said. It sounded so ridiculous that I thought I heard it wrong.
  12. I wasn't paying attention. What was that 3-0 stat?
  13. What kind of at bat was that Theriot?
  14. Apparently you haven't watched many White Sox games.
  15. Soriano's OBP creeping back toward the .300 mark?
  16. But there are dogs on the field. Everything will be ok.
  17. I wasn't opposed to re-signing Dempster, but I'll never understand why Hendry had to overpay so much for him right at the start of free agency rather than waiting to see what other offers were out there.
  18. According to Les Grobstein, Hendry became angry and walked away from him at the Cubs Convention when Grobstein referred to the fact that Gregg doesn't have "typical closer stuff". It's very scary when everyone else knows that, but the guy running the team thinks otherwise. Hendry cannot be allowed to hamstring this team with further bad contracts. Ideally I hope that he is fired as soon as the ownership transition is complete, but if he must be retained in a transition year then I think ownership should limit him to 1-year contracts.
  19. My dog took off running when I started yelling at Gregg... poor guy was just lying there minding his own business. I guess the same could be said for my dog.
  20. "Big league hitters do not miss his fastball." Brenly speaking the truth and not holding back there..
  21. Does anyone in MLB have more than 6 Blown Saves?
