  1. Stop trying to just take long-range jumpers. They aren't falling.
  2. From this point forward, until Duhon looks like a capable basketball player, I shall simply refer to him as Duh.
  3. Gordon needs to settle down.
  4. So much complaining about fouls. Should be a tech.
  5. Lu got the call because he pulled up for the jumper, making it all the more obvious that Delfino flopped.
  6. Bulls really need to box out better. Settling for too many outside shots and not getting any second chances.
  7. I hope Lou doesn't pinch hit with Lilly...
  8. Bulls, these are not the Heat. They will not quit, and will not tire out, and will not take plays off.
  9. Lou out there to the mound to let Cotts know "Strikes, please."
  10. Well, now I won't feel comfortable until there's 1 down in the 9th.
  11. Soriano really didn't play that one well.
  12. I never feel the game is safe until the Cubs require fewer outs to win the game than the opponent requires runs. So, with a 4 run lead, I feel safe going into the 9th.
  13. Got a feeling it'll be Ronny that goes down tomorrow, seeing as he's gotten practically no action on the field over the past week, and at least Pie is getting late-inning defensive work. Now I'd prefer Pie play every day and go down and work on his hitting, but I don't think that is what will happen.
  14. Crazy idea....maybe the Cubs should just let Santo do the stretch. Every day.
  15. Even though Zimmerman is currently hitting around .230, I'd still prefer not to face him with guys on... Belliard fly-out! Time to stretch.
  16. Ok, focus a little bit, guys. Sheesh.
  17. Hey, Lou is using Ohman correctly. EDIT: Hey, and he's actually using the double switch in the right way! 2 for 2! EDIT 2: LOL, first Cherry-Pie double switch.
  18. I support Ohman's use against left-handed hitters. As long as he throws strikes today.
  19. are you joking or what? Yeah, I bet if we put together a team of only Japanese players, they'd never be able to beat players from other countries in an international exhibition. They would simply be over matched...
  20. I think it just means that we're abusing our pitchers less than any other team in the NL. I bet after 27 games last year under Dusty, the team had like TWICE the IP. Is the stat for just starters or for all pitchers? For all pitchers, which just means the Cubs have played the fewest games in the NL.
  21. Expecting? At least 5 innings, fewer runs allowed than innings pitched, and more strikeouts than walks. Hoping for? 6 IP, 2 ER, 2 BB, 6 K, less than 100 pitches.
  22. OK, now that is impressive. Although I do think a few of those trades were made on sheer publicity more than what he had to offer.
