  1. Tell that to the White Sox who won a WS on Pitching and Defense. Their team BA was .262 with a .322 OBP and yet they managed to win a WS. they hit a crapload of homers. True..but they had 200 HR to our 194. They had a .262 AVG with a .322 OPB while we had a .270 AVG with a .324 OBP. So what was the difference between the two teams offensively? The difference must be in the clutch hitting because defense means very, very, very little. Yeah, that or exceptional pitching. I'll go with the pitching myself. You don't think that the defense had anything to do with that? I don't think it had much to do with it, no. How's our good defense working out with our pitching this year?
  2. Nope. The only difference between the 2005 Cubs and the 2005 White Sox was defense.

  4. No one "hates" Izturis. We just think he sucks, because he does.
  5. I will also be at the game tonight. I am thinking about going with the Paper Bag look.
  6. The White Sox won with small ball and the Cubs will try to win with Little League ball. if by "small ball" you mean hitting a million home runs and having 5 healthy pitchers all year, then I agree Nevertheless, the ball is still pretty small. Smaller than a grapefruit, say.

  8. he seriously did not say that. sure did. God help us.
  9. I'm going to pretend I didn't see this post. There's nothing to like about having someone on the same offensive level as Neifi playing every day. Not to mention he'll be getting paid more than Neifi to be Neifi for 2+ more years. So basically you would of just kept Maddux, and let him walk for nothing? Izturis was a solid player in 04. .288 Average .330OBP 4hr 62RBI 25SB, not to mention the guy is excellent with the glove. Izturis is far worse than nothing. I would have rather given Maddux away for a ziplock bag of air. :lol:

  11. We'll miss ye, Todd. Someone should link the Treeman(?) post where Todd was the root of all the world's evils.
  12. We're getting pretty close to the deadline. Has there bee any other news on this front? Are we all just kind of waiting around?
  13. I think we have different definitions of this word. yeah, we must. for instance, i think a 1.17 whip and a 4.20 era is good. Yes and I consider an ERA+ of 97 to be below average. fine, he's horrendous and i wish he were dead. a 1.17 whip is good, and i didn't take the time to draft a thesis on the finer points of his statistics. i thought he'd be a decent 3/4 for the brewers (despite his woefully inadequate ERA+) given the fact that the brewers are a mid-market team. \You need to lighten up. I disagree that he's good, no need to get your panties all in a bunch. Take a deep breath. well, i guess it depends on how you view good. my point was that he's more than a mere inning eater, which is how someone described him. he's no, say, jered weaver, or anything. Fair enough.

  17. ??? Grossman, Bradley, Berrian, Mike Brown, Benson, and Thomas Jones were all injured last year. The Bears had some signifigant injuries last year.
