  1. Maybe if we put all three guys averages together, they'll add up to a .300 catcher!
  2. Bruce Levine is on ESPN right now reporting that the Police concert completely destroyed a good part of centerfield. He said it's the worst he has ever seen the field. I don't remember the field being impacted at all by the Jimmy Buffett concert? That's bad news to have the field look bad when Wrigley should be at its finest.
  3. Hill is out of options. Assuming he's the one leaving to make room, he'll be going to a different organization. Hill, Isturis, Eyre, Jones and Murton for Griffey? :D I WISH....but i heard the report Levine is giving that if izturis is traded then Ronny will be recalled from Triple A Is this the same Hendry that was there when Baker was there? I love what Lou and JH have been doing lately. Lou has really been a revelation. This appears to be the kind of team Lou was hoping he'd get when he went to Tampa. One with a good mix of veterans and rooks. I wonder if Hendry wanted to make these types of moves in recent years, but Dusty's lovefest for worthless vets like Neifi got in the way.
  4. Nice bounceback win tonight....Now let's get Z to 11 wins and another series winner and momentum going into the break....GO CUBS!
  5. I just don't get this reasoning. Whoever buys the Cubs will likely pay upwards of $800 million. Do you (or Bud) really think they will care about adding say $10M more to the payroll if it brings the Cubs a trip to the playoffs? Which, btw, would pay off much more favorably anyways.
  6. Get those fingers warmed up NSBB fans...time to vote for Big Z!
  7. A_RAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  8. Hendry didn't botch anything. The deal as reported was a horrible one for Chicago. He was right not to pull the trigger too quickly, especially if any other team was remotely interested. What if one of the other rumored teams saw the Marlins low-ball offer and realized they easily do better and still come out the winner in the deal? Hendry didn't have to make a move today. If he can get a better deal than paying 75% salary and getting nothing in return, then he should hold out. THere is no better deal for Jacque Jones. He has 0 value. Yeah, hitting 27 HRs and 81 in full-time duty last season really sucks. A definition of no value is Macias.
  9. Unless the CSN crew somehow didn't have a 3rd base or a home plate camera, their failure to put up a replay inside of 15 or 20 seconds is inexcusible. The fact that they never showed the obstruction at all* is enough to make one wonder if they knew what had happened but decided to sit back and enjoy the carnage. Maybe they hate Hawk and DJ as much as we do. *I've only seen the youtube video, so if they showed it in the bottom of the 8th, or the 9th, I wouldn't know about it Wouldn't the two broadcast teams be sharing the same cameras for the game? They should have had the same view Bob and Len had--only they know how to call a game instead of fuming like two drunk whining fans.
  10. Don't you think Hawk will be getting fined for dropping the two BS comments, not to mention the dagummits? I've frankly never heard an announcer go off like that on a TV broadcast.
  11. I know this is a Hawk bashing session (which I'm all too happy to join) but Ron provides absolutely no value whatsoever to a broadcast. I love Ronnie to death, but it's more than time for him to retire.
  12. Man, this weekend was fun. Three solid to great pitching performances, some timely hitting, good defense....we're starting to look like a real baseball team! Let's keep it going against the Rockies...
  13. Well, which is it Z? You've got Cardinals socks from Molina in your locker and now this.... Don't worry about the Sox, they'd never pay the money for Z anyways.
  14. Yeah, I guess it's no big deal that only FOUR OTHER PLAYERS IN MLB HISTORY have ever accomplished what Sammy did the other night.
  15. Mired in mediocrity...that is our Chicago Cubs...
  16. Now this is more like it....LET'S GO CUBS!
  17. Great way to build some momentum going into the Sox series, huh?
  18. Just wondering...does anyone know why Cliff Floyd is incapable of playing two games in a row? Did he sign a part-time contract? He is hurt? We need some bats in the lineup.
  19. Glad to see the worst team in baseball smacking us around, while we can't seem to hit the second 6+ ERA pitcher we've faced. This team boggles the mind....just when we think they are getting it turned around this crap happens
  20. I don't mind the move...Felix has been struggling and Fontenot is the hottest hitter in the lineup. Who would you have preferred?
  21. Absolutely horrendous hitting (or really lack there of) If I were our pitching staff, I'd demand a trade!
  22. Which would be unusual considering we're using the DH in an AL park.
