    He would have been thrown out if he had gone. You think? I don't know. I think he would have been able to make it.
  4. illiniguy
    JOnes should have scored once he went to second.
  5. illiniguy
    damn maybe he should have just bunted.
  6. illiniguy

  8. illiniguy
    Yeah he did.
  9. illiniguy
    But, the umpire missed it.
  10. illiniguy
    but, he wouldn't have been called out. Jones is killing us.
  11. illiniguy
    Jones is so good.

    Elijah will soon be on the same team with Toe Nash again. That will be some kind of jail team.
  13. illiniguy
    don't get used to it.
  14. illiniguy
    hopefully maine throws double digit pitches this inning.

    and i bet if you took a poll of major leaguers, they'd say juan pierre and david eckstein are good baseball players. that's a little unfair why? even if it's an exaggeration (and I don't think it is), it makes the point that players are biased, and even ignorant, towards evaluation of players/stats/results. well it wasn't my argument.... either way, Sammy drove in 158 runs on a team with a .335 OBP while Olerud drove in 93 on a team with a .328 OBP. In other words, the frequency with which their teammates got on base was negligible, but Sammy made much better of it This is a stupid way to look at it. 1. You are actually rewarding Sosa for making outs. Sosa's low walk rate would lead to more outs with runners on. Olerud took walks. 2. You are rewarding Sosa and penalizing Olerud for the parks they played in. 3. Sosa had 13.3% more PAs w/ runners on base. 4. Sosa had over 50 more runners on when he came up. 5. Olerud was JUST as efficient as driving in runners from 2B and 3B as Sosa was. Sosa was obviously more efficient with runners on 1B due to the home runs, but one has to remember the walks. Sosa hit a bunch of HRs. Olerud did EVERYTHING else better. He pitched a lot better, but Sammy didn't need no stinking helmet in the field.

    soriano why can't you field as well as easley?
  17. illiniguy
    Good lord, so many guys make ridiculous plays against us.
  18. illiniguy
    impressive inning.
  19. illiniguy
    Why do they all call Ramirez that?
  20. illiniguy
    Don't swing David. They will never call a strike on you.
  21. illiniguy
    I'll vote if you bring the rabbit to the performance.
  22. illiniguy
    of in our system i would rather have playing than Jacque. Pie Pagan Fox Colvin DeRosa Murton etc.
  23. illiniguy
    It is such a joke that Jones is still on this team. He shouldn't start on our AAA team.
  24. illiniguy
    jones vs wagner. wtf lou?
  25. illiniguy
    He just isn't very good. Hmmmm...he has been for most of the year. His career has just been so-so. He isn't the type of guy who closes on most great playoff teams.
