Cubs sign Soriano
Andy replied to Rusch33's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
Rosenthal says they've talked about CF but could also play him on a corner depending on what else gets done this offseason. I pray it's center. His production would be incredible for CF even if he regresses from last year. -
Cubs sign Soriano

I'm much more worried about his sucking at the age of 31 relative to that deal. Maybe he will. But on the other hand, maybe this is a sign that he's learned his lesson relative to guys that seem to have an injury bug following them around re: JD Drew. Soriano and Drew were the two guys that gave us the best chance to win now, and getting one of them would be a great accomplishment. -

I could care less if he sucks at 38 still with this team, the fact is that for once Hendry's going after the big fish with guns blazing. -
OPS+ accounts for the era...which is why I felt it made a good case.
-
Uhhh....wow
-
It was pretty good, certainly good enough to still be sold. Why don't they sell it anymore?
-
I still don't understand why Florida is ahead of Arkansas but at least the Hogs get a chance on the field to prove they are better. I do. Florida was ranked higher to start the year. Come on Cuse, get with the program! :D
-
I take it back, Florida did just drop from 3 to 4 after the WCU game, so ND's not alone. Give the voters credit for that at least.

You should have played Western Carolina and beat them 62-0. If we were like Florida and were still throwing up 55, I have no doubt we would have.
-
Unless I'm mistaken, ND's the only team in the nation to drop after a win, and it's now happened three times.
-
You didn't want Ohio State to beat the merciless crap out of ND before?
-
Good point, forgot they added that tie in with the new 2 auto bids. I don't think it's new. Texas making the national title game last year enabled the Fiesta Bowl to have the first at-large selection and then the third also, which is how they scored the OSU/ND matchup.
-
It should be an extremely exciting game when ND comes into Pasadena next year. I hope you guys beat USC.
-
They probably would, but the Big 12 champ is contracted to play in the Fiesta Bowl unless they make the national title game. Texas would have to play in the Fiesta.
-
In that case: Fiesta Bowl - Oklahoma (Big 12) vs. Boise State (at large) Rose Bowl - USC (Pac-10) vs. Florida (at large) Sugar Bowl - ND (at large) vs. Arkansas (SEC) Orange Bowl - Georgia Tech (ACC) vs. Louisville (Big East) National title game - OSU (Big 10) vs. Michigan (at large) - The Big 10 and Pac-10 champs are contracted with the Rose Bowl, the Big 12 champs with the Fiesta, the SEC with the Sugar, and the ACC with the Orange. The first pick of the other eligible teams goes to whatever bowl(s) lose their contracted teams to the title game, then it goes Sugar/Orange/Fiesta. - The Rose Bowl will get the first pick since they lost OSU to the title game, but they won't want a USC/ND rematch, so they'll take Florida. - Then the Sugar Bowl picks, and they'll take ND. - Then the Orange, who will take Louisville. - Then the Fiesta will be stuck with Boise State. It's going to be hard for Oklahoma to win the Big 12 considering the Championship game is Texas-Nebraska. Son of a... Alright, sub in Texas.

-
I might too, but I don't think UM will fall far enough for Arkansas to catch them.
-
Here's how I think the BCS is going to look: Fiesta Bowl - Oklahoma (Big 12) vs. Boise State (at large) Rose Bowl - USC (Pac-10) vs. Florida (at large) Sugar Bowl - ND (at large) vs. Arkansas (SEC) Orange Bowl - Georgia Tech (ACC) vs. West Virginia (Big East) National title game - OSU (Big 10) vs. Michigan (at large) I think Florida will lose to Arkansas in the title game, ND will beat USC, and that will necessitate the voters choosing between an OSU/Mich rematch and an ND/Mich rematch. Gee, I wonder what they'll choose.
-
Cal's going to get another TD reversed.
-
And one of them just sent Ole Miss-LSU to OT.
-
I vote Tony's, but since I'm a starving college student I have to settle for the $1 Totino's.
-
Ty finishes up 5-7 and takes the Apple Cup game with Wazzu 35-32. Good to see his team improving.
-
I swear on all that I've seen that Ben Sheets is reffing the Rutgers game.
-
Ole Miss leads LSU 17-7 at halftime...
