  1. sorry if this has already been mentioned, but did anyone else notice that Ankiel went 2-2 w/ 2 rbi yesterday for the Cards and is playing RF? Thought that was interesting.
  2. You're off my short list. sorry, thought I'd fixed that.
  3. any thoughts on the other players we'd have to give up?
  4. Has there been any statement as to when they plan to make a hire? With the week? Once all the good candidates are gone? Anything?
  5. swinging bunt? real bunt? was it Dusty's call or did Jacque decide that himself? I'm not watching it, but Santo was speculating that Jacque might have done that on his own. Who knows with this team. damn, I was hoping it was Dusty's call so his necessity to leave would become even more evident...if that's possible

  7. Does anyone think it's a possibility Rusch will actually be DFA after this game? How many more starts will it take?
  8. Speed kills. How many is that on the year? 23
  9. While I concur, when's the last time Dusty even took the toothpick out if his mouth and his ass off the bench? I agree, but the two are total opposites on the extreme ends of the spectrum. Yeah...one's a winner and one's a loser.
  10. Does anyone think there are some pitchers out there that don't mention their soreness and continue on? Didn't Oswalt have something like that happen? I just don't think there is an end in sight to Wood's continual arm/shoulder/back (whatever) problems and we need to deal him away while we can if it's not already too late.
  11. c) his career (with the Cubs) is (hopefully) over
  12. sure. pay me 12 million and I'll rehab for 6 months in arizona Amen. Nurse an injury for 10 mill a year? Sign me up. Serious question though...are there any other teams out there with these types of problems with pitchers?
  13. Worst part of all this, Neifi will probably have to come in.
  14. yeah, it was clean except for the fact that it wasn't necessary and I'm sure that's what was running through Barrett's head after he got plowed over.
  15. Saw the replay on Fox and AJ was an ass about it. Barrett got a great shot to the head after AJ slapped home plate but then several White Sox jumped on Barrett. I've said they need something like this to happen 2 weeks ago. This might be the only thing that will get this team FIRED UP!!!
  16. What did you expect a no-hitter? It's his first game back. Relax. Well, if he was ready to come back I would expect a little more than that, but I was just talking in generalities of how bad this team is. As usual the Messiah has a high pitchcount early in the game and is getting battered around this is Kerry's MO. He will probably settle down but he always seems to have one or two bad innings early in games. Career ERA of 3.67, ERA+ of 116. Obviously he doesn't always have one or two bad innings a game. It's his first game back. Everybody warned that he would not be perfect, he's shown signs of dominance, but can't be expected to be 100% right now. If he shows no signs of improvement in the coming games then you can start complaining, but this isn't that big of a deal. he wont be 100% because he'll be on the DL again in 3 weeks. Seriously, I'll be shocked if he doesn't leave this game complaining of soreness somewhere. Why are you so bitter? Did you expect to see Wood to dominate a game in his first start back. It's going to take a couple of starts. Some of you guys expected way too much today. I'm not bitter, I'm just ready to get rid of him, just like I was last year. I'm tired of him playing half seasons.
