    Interesting how everyone is concentrating on free agents. I happen to think this off-season's biggest move will come via trade. Hendry will be aggressive with money to spend coming off of a dismal year. My current belief is that Manny Ramirez will become a cub in January. I think Wagner is a slim possibility but Ryan will be re-signed by Baltimore, as they have the cash and incentive to keep him. I think our big free agent will be A.J Burnett I think CF will be left between Patterson and Pie. I think Murton's arm will be tested in RF I think Walker's option will be picked up. Nomar will be gone and Cedeno will play short until he has an 0-4 (likely in spring training), at which point Neifi will take over for the rest of the season) The bullpen will be anchored by Dempster and Williamson. Ohman as the LOOGY, Hill as the main lefty. Other spots to be won in spring training. Thus: Cedeno Walker Lee Ramirez Ramirez Murton Patterson Barrett Zambrano Prior Burnett Wood Maddux Ohman Hill Williamson Dempster Van Buren ?? ?? Neifi Macias Blanco Pie LH power Which, in my mind looks great (except for Pie). However, as soon as a couple injuries occur, we have Cedeno Neifi Lee Ramirez Macias Murton Patterson Blanco Zambrano Maddux Hill ??? ???

    Murton should start everyday with Patterson, Hairston and Burnitz rotating. Cedeno should start everyday. Period. This is becoming comical.

    Wow. Season over, and now Dusty uses the squeeze. I'm confounded by this man.
  4. muntjack
    Surely both Murton and Cedeno will be starting tonight, so it should be a fun game to watch.
  5. muntjack
    Exactly. Murton stepped up, we just didn't play him enough. Grieve could have stepped up, we didn't play him, either.

    OHO! Filthy! Brenly: " Im not quite sure what that was"
  7. muntjack
    GET HIM OUT NOW!

    I have a BAAADDD feeling about this.
  9. muntjack
    Bases Loaded, grounder Lee to Nomar for one, Nomar throws it into the dugout, two runs score. 3-2 cubs.
  10. muntjack
    I have a feeling he won't be when Hairston is activated. Yeah, if he's not starting tonight with good career #s vs Oswalt, I have to think you may be right.

    OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GONE!

    Through 2 innings: Zambrano- 20 pitches Oswalt- 36 pitches
  13. muntjack
    Even though that inning went 1-2-3, every hitter worked the count for at least five pitches. That is the kind of inning that pays dividends around the fifth or sixth.
  14. muntjack
    11 pitch inning with 2 Ks. Nice.
  15. muntjack
    Yes! Off the glove.
  16. muntjack
    I understand your point. The jist of what I was trying to point out is overall, Carlos has been absolutely dominant. It's just a couple of bad innings that disguise this.
  17. muntjack
    In honor of the biggest game of the season to date (and out of complete boredom) I decided to sift through some numbers on our own Carlos Zambrano. ( 24 starts, 3.17 ERA, 1.20 WHIP) Some intersting facts: Subtract just THREE starts, and Carlos' ERA is a full run lower at 2.17, good for #2 in MLB. In fact taking away just the disaster INNING in Milwaukee and his ERA stands at 2.76 24 Total starts 10 unbelievable starts in which he has 81 innings and only 3 ER 7 good starts in which he has 47 innings and 17 ER 7 poor starts in which he has 32 innings and 35 ER These numbers back up the feeling I have had for awhile.... If not for a few lackadaisical innings, we would be seeing a lot of Clemens/Zambrano discussions.

    Granted, the pitching has been atrocious. But the offense should by no means get off the hook. Facing Wandy Rodriguez in this park should yield more than four runs.
  19. muntjack
    I'm on record. If we win this game, we win the World Series.
  20. muntjack
    Okay, we need to average 2.5 runs per inning to win this game. Of course, we also have to give up zero.....so....
  21. muntjack
    Anyone know whos has gotten the most ABs for the cubs this season? That's right.................Jeromy Burnitz!!!! This is not good, by the way.
  22. muntjack
    Um.. I say bring up West Tenn.
  23. muntjack
    You know, I had given up, and was starting to enjoy watching the season de-rail (in hopes that Dusty would be fired) The we have to go and look so good against St. Louis, and I get sucked back in. Now this.
  24. muntjack
    Game. Set. Match. Season.
  25. muntjack
    Ouch. We have to win this game.
