  1. He hurt his hammy. Day to day. He'll probably be back by Thursday at latest.
  2. You've followed his career closely but didn't know he wasn't a rookie last year? Look, Wright is going to be very good offensively. That does not automatically make him very good defensively. Tell that to Gold Glove voters.
  3. Nah, they'll keep hitting. But the pitching will go down the tubes. Luckily for the Reds, the Cubs won't hit for the next five games.
  4. Bingo. They miked up Dempster for this game and it was the day after the Eckstein play. They aired his mock commentary and also showed him jovially yakking with some Cards fans.
  5. At least Murt is getting back on track.
  6. This is why Cubs fans are the best. Impossible optimism. :)
  7. Raise your hand if you're not jealous of UMFan83 for going to Wrigley today. *raises hand*
  8. 1 out of 3 is, and I guarantee we don't win more than that.
  9. I'm pretty sure I watched that one. It wasn't a good day.
  10. I'll say right now, the Cubs may not win a series against Cincy or Pittsburgh this year. They just don't seem to like beating bad baseball teams.
  11. He's questionable. Reports make it sound like he's still suffering some symptoms and they don't mess around with concussions generally. My guess is he's out tonight. The mybulls e-mail I got had Allen in the lineup, so he is most likely out.
  12. i'm pretty sure Hairston is starting either tomorrow or Thursday or even both days with 2 lefties going for the Reds. The Trib seemed to think so (via SI.com's Truth and Rumors).
  13. For now it's AT&T Park. PacBell>>>SBC>>>AT&T I'd just call it Phone Company Park now to be safe.
  14. Not to derail this thread further, but did anybody see Tino Martinez's debut on Baseball Tonight about a week or so ago? I'm not sure if it was the deer-in-the-headlights look or his stilted delivery, but either way he quickly became my least favorite new guy to be added to ESPN's payroll. Why isn't an Eric Karros or AL Leiter taking Kruk or Reynolds place on that set? I'd love to see either of those guys, or Grace, taking a job like that. I'm tired of ESPN and other networks treating us fans like we're a bunch of idiots. To be honest with you, I think the average NSBB poster knows more about baseball than the average analyst over at ESPN, and that's just wrong. Maybe it's just me, but perhaps ex-professional ballplayers have more insight into the game than the college age posters on this board. If they have so much good insight, then why have they yet to share any useful forms of it with us?
  15. I think for this year and as long as both remain active from here on, Ramirez will be the superior player each season.
  16. How well did you handle that conflict? Well, like I said above, it was a FULL conversion. :D The Braves are just another team now.
  17. You have 13, sorry about that...especially since you're 2nd from the bottom on the update list I can't believe I missed you. Hopefully I get the kinks of this thing worked out in time for tomorrow night's update list.
  18. At least you have radio. It's MLB.com Gameday time for me...Gameday Audio's not even an option because I'm in the so called "blackout" range.
  19. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Ramirez make it to the All Star game last year? I don't remember if he started or not though. He did start when Rolen missed the game due to injury.
  20. Vladdy Daddy gets me back on a streak. Judas Damon tomorrow.
  21. Actually I think complaining about a fishing analogy is nitpicking at it's finest but this is probably a close second. huh? See "Dusty Being Dusty" thread
  22. ...I see.... Is this similar to certain members waiting untill we have a few good games in a row to tell the "haters" how right they were all along? =D> =D> =D>
  23. :shock: I'm with you Ryan. Thirded.
