  1. Dusty looks quite happy about that. Go Nomar!
  2. He looked to be sweating some last time out - but the shortish innings will be a good thing. Edit - by 'time' I mean 'inning'
  3. Yeah, but since when were the Braves ever successful? :lol: By the way, that sig is scaring the jiggins out of me.
  4. I've noticed that, too. I thought it was going to be a slow road, and I think it still will, but I've been impressed since his return.
  5. Z is rapidly becoming my favourite Cub. Raises glass Z-wards GO CUBS!
  6. You might as well win, Cubbies, its not like you've got anything better to do.
  7. I care about homers & power, but I think with Lee and A-Ram, that side of it is covered for a couple of years. Patterson, too, if his performance is satisfactory (I've only seen a few ABs since he came back up, I was mildly impressed, but not blown away) has power in there, too. So, yes, the good average hitter would be nice. Drive round a few runners and then be on base when the big boys come up. Its nothing new for the Cubs this year to be thought short of that.
  8. I thought it was a 'he leads a double nocturnal life' joke. Still. Good to get a three-in-one gag. :lol:
  9. I took the field. I had a feeling that Tiger wouldn't do it. I was thinking Mickelson might, but not enough that I can claim it. Otherwise I'd have put money on it. It was more a 'Well, if Tiger doesn't, Mickelson could....'
  10. We were all disappointingly optimistic about this game. :( Now to cruise back into pessimism for the rest of the series.
  11. Five and two thirds. Four hits. Two runs, both off of a homer in the third. Incidentally, if this does happen, it isn't voodoo, its luck.
  12. Of all the stats I've ever read, that's by far the most conclusive helping me work out today's result. 8)
  13. Fixed. :D Why, I oughta.... :lol: :lol:
  14. I'd go with that. He looked solid until he got hit, and I think he should probably have left the game then. They highlighted one of the hits and how quickly he got out of the way of it. No guarantee he would have got to it before, but being hit certainly rattled him.
  15. I'm in. Robot Devil. On a related note, Go Steelers!
  16. Go Cubs! Keep the momentum of the weekend going! Every series from here on in is more important so this is the most important series of the season so far!
  17. No Morris doesn't, but he will get after you. Batters know that :lol: :lol:
  18. OMFG! <3!!! You're not kidding. :P Thanks. This will stand me in good stead come football season, too.
  19. Cubbies on UK terrestrial TV! Let's go Cubbies! Just because I'm not starting the game threads any more doesn't mean you can't win!
  20. Well, its worked twice with me starting the game thread this early. Let's try for the hat-trick. Cards are in a slump of two. Cubs are in a streak of two. Cards' starter is 16-4 on the season thus far. Cubs' starter is 3-5 on the season thus far. Go Cubs! NB - Living in the UK, my MLB.tv coverage of this game is not blacked out.
  21. I like him too. Especially since the new Patient Barrett appeared after the ASB. Maybe that's been built up too much, I don't know the stats, but he certainly seems to have longer ABs
