    is addison russell expected to be called up this year? i know the a's had him on the fast track before he tore his hamstring last april, but he's only 20 and i'm guessing the cubs have him on the same "master all minor league levels" before progressing to the big leagues as they did with bryant and baez.

    not only is glendon rusch in this picture, he's wearing a zip-up fleece of some kind while the others (including what looks to be an emaciated kerry wood) are in dress shirts.

    There has been an awakening...have you felt it?

    i'm guessing they meant at wrigley since they swept the nationals in a 4-game series in washington in july 2009. reason i know is that i saw 2 of those 4 games in person.

    this. my jaw hit the floor when he's rounding second and kept glancing at what was going on in the outfield.

    the nba has a drunk in crazy colored plaid suits The NHl "wins" with this [expletive] dirtbag: http://a.espncdn.com/media/motion/2010/0528/chi_100528_melrose_Niemi_Leighton.jpg barry melrose is great in a so-bad-he's-good kind of way. the gray mullet is the icing on the douche cake.

    listening to vin scully do the play-by-play on mlb radio and was too distracted by his perfect baseball announcing voice to notice if mattingly had anyone warming up during the bases-loaded nobody out situation. what an absolute waste of an amazing pitching performance by kershaw.

    i'm using mlb.tv to watch the game and i've just noticed the 9 different camera angles you can choose. has this always been a part of mlb.tv or just for the playoffs? either way, it's wild!

    and castillo just threw a strike to 2nd to gun down a baserunner. WOW!

    consider yourself lucky. i had to sit next to two drunk kids in their late teens spitting chaw all over the place like a couple of assholes.

    still great to see that my baseball tonight vhs recording from 2001 is still making the rounds on the internet. that's the loudest i've ever heard wrigley in person. what a great ending!

    heading up to the cubs bar in the lower east side later on to watch the game. happy days are here again!

    Okay, I've seen an iteration of this posted multiple times, but I don't understand the reference. Can someone explain what this is from? And what exactly is going on? EXACTLY. it's from the movie BABES IN TOYLAND: http://www.sadanduseless.com/2010/02/creepy-fiddle-playing-cat-and-spastic-mouse/ i watched that movie one too many times as a child.

    For some strange reason, I only jumped 30 places in line from July 2013 to July 2014. I jumped 31,500 places from April 2012 to July 2013. I have an email into the season ticket waiting list asking, quite politely, WTF?

    baez and bryant aren't going to be there opening day 2015, much less russell and soler. well, soler maybe if he had more PAs this year, but he hasn't. I understand that Russell had a hamstring issue at the start of the season, but from the sound of what's been posted on Oakland A's boards, it seems that he would've been in AA/AAA for them for most of the 2014 season, if not a mid-season call up if the injury didn't happen. Do we see the Cubs holding him in the minors for another full season? Also, with the way Bryant is hitting at all levels and and Baez starting to put it together on a more consistent basis in Iowa (yes, small sample size over the last 3-4 weeks), do we really think those two won't make it on the opening day roster in 2015?

    So is it fair to say that this would be our starting 8 going into opening day 2015: C Castillo 1B Rizzo 2B Baez/Castro SS Castro/Russell 3B Russell/Baez LF Bryant CF Alcantara RF Free Agent/Soler Would it be wishful thinking to believe we'd get mid-late 90s era Cleveland Indians production out of this lineup? Very young and a good chunk won't have any MLB service time, but damn this group of players makes me excited for next season!

    Purchased tickets for this game thinking it would have the best pitching matchup. I'll take trading for Russell as a consolation prize, though. \:D/

    I always flash back to Sammy's ... 96? Was that the HBP that shattered his helmet? If so, that was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay after 96 Wasn't it 03? shattered helmet was 2003 against the pirates. salomon torres.

    I always flash back to Sammy's ... 96? Was that the HBP that shattered his helmet? no, he was hit by a pitch against the marlins in '96 that broke his wrist and ended his season with him sitting on 40 HR.
