Gale is also working with the University of Kansas Athletic Department at this point. I believe he raises money for the teams.
-
i really hope the cubs win it in my lifetime and don't really care about how it affects some doofus who attended a baseball game 7 years ago. Eh the guys been the butt of a lot of jokes. I think he deserves off the hook, you know since he didn't really do anything wrong.
-
It was a line drive between short and third, Lee had to hold and make sure it went through. Dang that's what I figured. -
Three hits in the inning and we haven't scored. Was Soriano's hit pretty hard?
-
it's just a waste of money. you have a guy making $10M and he's pitched twice in the minors, and he's better than most of the other pitchers in the rotation. what's the point of keeping him in the minors? Eh if we are gonna start worrying about wasting money with this organization, that would be the least of our worries.
-
you really want a good starter using 3 or 4 of his 32 starts in the minors? Yeah I think Z probably could have handled a few more starts before we had to rush Ted back up. I mean if our staff is deep enough to put Zambrano in the pen, then by that logic shouldn't we have been able to afford a few more starts without ted?
-
I don't think so. Other fan bases hate us. It isn't like oh man they suck, lol crap either.
-
That's absurd. What next, play Soto everyday and not bat him 8th?
-
Koyie Hill is awesome.
-
I wouldn't be so sure about that. This is the Cubs, the same team that makes loser starting pitchers look like gods. You have to go all the way back to when we got 2 runs off of Paul Maholm to see this be proven.
-
Right
-
Why can't we beat the crap teams?
-
Yeah, let me guess you don't think that's possible?
-
This is the Cubs' curse. We have Joe Mauer and we bat him 8th on the days we actually play him. :banghead: I wouldn't go that far. If the Twins called up today and offered Mauer for Soto straight up, i'd take it in a heartbeat. So would I, but I am betting Lou would still find a way to get Hill some time. It's ridculous. Hill is minor league fodder.
-
It's different with us, although I think it's because inspite of our ineptitude, we still have a huge following.
-
Well we are pretty much the Clippers of baseball. Yet, every fan base in our division hates us. Imagine if we actually won the damn title.

I think it is awesome that fans of other teams have to pick at the scabs of us every chance they get. Yeah we don't win it all, but every other fan that brings up the Bartman crap hates us enough that you would have thought we win it all every year.
-
another awesome at bat from Aramis. Are we ever gonna get over .500?
-
He's a joke.
-
Of course Vitters is a few years away yet, right? I hardly think Aramis is done. He's been an elite hitter for years.
-
Aramis looks awful.
-
Are the cardinals pitchers ever gonna realize they aren't all Sandy Koufax?
-
It isn't his fault that our stupid organization plays him out of position.
-
So glad the Royals drafted Luke Hochevar. :banghead:
