  1. Phil Nevin is gonna have a Gary Gaetti-like resurgance, mark it down
  2. .924 OPS against Lefties the last 3 years... can play 1st/corner OF spots... Texas eating his salary. It's a good trade.
  3. That's a great attitude to have with a supposedly "cursed" franchise. :lol:
  4. Back to back nice defensive plays by Maddux.
  5. For those of you in Indiana, this game (Reds Broadcast) is on Fox Sports Midwest.
  6. Dusty is a genius, sign him to a 6-year, $60 million dollar deal.
  7. Only if Eyre can pitch 3 innings :lol: I predict Dunn/Kearns homer coming
  8. Because no team with the payroll the size of ours should have Womack on the 25-man roster. It's not so much Womack vs the other options on the bench, as how bad our roster is right now. Never mind he played for the Yankees last year :lol: He's an upgrade over Nefi, in my book so far.
  9. We got a shot tommorrow actually since Wood owns the crap out of the Reds.
  10. ball went *doink* off A-Ram's head when he tried to catch it
  11. Having Bonds at his drug-filled peak certainly helps.
  12. Cubs are 1-21 in the last 26 games when they allow their opponents to score more than 1 run.
  13. Might as well raise the L flag already if a lefty is pitching. :lol:
  14. There has to be someone out there somewhere managing, probably several people in fact, who are brilliant managers and exactly what we need. It's just a matter of doing the proper search instead of just going after a retread name or promoting some clown from within the organization.
  15. It needs to be a controlled explosion... the core of these team is good that's locked up for a while, it's just the supporting players suck and terrible management.
  16. 2 RBIs for Pierre so far this year is absolutely pathetic.
  17. Cuban actually hired people like Jeff Sagarin (who does the Sagarin ratings for USA Today for several sports... if you're a college sports fan you've heard of them) and others to develop private stats for the Mavs right when he took them over. If you want a guy who's a stat guru and would spend wisely, he's your man.
  18. Yes, because it's proven a guy's ability as a coach is related to how good they were as a player.
  19. Watch, now we'll win a couple games (mainly because of the pitching), Baker will be hailed as a genius for his unusual, but brilliant managing and will get extended. Womack, Blanco, Pierre, Bynum, and Nefi will start the rest of the year.
  20. I say we purchase some of these bad boys... OBP will certainly improve! http://www.mactonnies.com/asimo.jpg
  21. Simply put, we have money to spend (actually a lot of money) and LF seems the best place to upgrade the offense. We're probably stuck with Jones and his production is excellent if you platoon him with someone who kills lefties, which Matt Murton happens to do. The FA field is weak at SS and Soriano at 2B doesn't give you much bang for your buck. C/3B/1st are locked up and Pie is the future at CF.
  22. The Trib makes a lot more off the Cubs than just park revenue. They've got to make a killing on merchandise, plus Cubs games keeping cable systems from dropping WGN from their lineup.
