    Nah, I still think we win this one, though it might be ugly.
  2. muntjack
    I'm going to predict a series sweep, which will get many of us mildly interested again, unfortunately.
  3. muntjack
    Well at least we have the real heart of the order coming up.....

    In other news, Jim Hendry has seen to it that John Grabow is a multi-millionaire.
  5. muntjack
    No he looks like that every shot.

    I'm starting to think Carlos Silva is a good pitcher. Ahem.
  7. muntjack
    Very classy. Unfortunately players cannot do this too often or it would offer management the opportunity to spend even more frivolously, knowing that players would help compensate for payroll mistakes.
  8. muntjack
    Ok, I'm getting to the point where I don't care who he replaces.

    Ely has "complete disdain" for the Chicago Cubs. Please knock the crap out of the ball today, gentlemen.

    Lewis threw mayyyybe 2 strikes that inning.
  11. muntjack
    Dont be surprised when he's traded for a mediocre RH setup man.
  12. muntjack
    Well not to be a Soto apologist, but in that span he has narrowly missed 2 HR and was a victim of the worst called strike 3 I've ever seen. Really wish someone had a GIF of that.
  13. muntjack
    Strike 2 was one of the worst I've seen. Strike 3 was straight out of Naked Gun.
  14. muntjack
    Perhaps the worst strike call i've ever seen.
  15. muntjack
    Highest OBP in the NL. Hitting 8th.
  16. muntjack
    Of the top 12 in the NL in OPS, 1/3 are Chicago Cubs.

    It's one thing for small market, low-payroll teams to be terrible. For the team with the highest payroll in the league to perform at this level just puts an enormous spotlight on management. When your payroll is $150 million and you're relying on Carlos Silva and Tom Gorzelanny (I know they've been serviceable, but don't let that trick you) as cornerstones of the rotation, and when you exacerbate what is already perhaps the most ineffecient budgeting of payroll in sports history by putting your most highly-paid starter (with a career ERA+ of 125) in the role of setup man YOU need to be held accountable when the team fails. The plan was poor, the execution has been poor and the attempts to fix the team have been laughable. Do the right thing and step down. This is shameful.

    But of course, you aren't really serious.
  19. muntjack
    Let me be the first to say we are not going to do anything today.
  20. muntjack
    Ugh, Soto is never going to get enough PAs to qualify.
  21. muntjack
    Fred do you know what the cubs record is when the strike zone is 6' x 6'?
  22. muntjack
    Well, that was just about perfect.
  23. muntjack
    Everything is falling into place for a Castro call up. For better or worse.
  24. muntjack
    Nice start.

    Consistently replacing young, cheap, decent (or good) bullpen arms with older, expensive, mediocre (or bad) ones. One of this organizations more confounding philosophies. Sadly, the ripple effect that these decisions have made can never be quantified. What moves could have been made with the money and players used? Allocating this team's massive budget properly would result in easy playoff appearances nearly every year. I don't understand how someone in the organization doesn't see that.
