  1. 29th in BABIP overall.
  2. Eh. I'd buy that argument if we found a horseshoe once in a while, but we never do. It probably has to do with the Cardinals being a far superior organization to our Cubs. Theo and Jed are here to change that. So you think they're coaching clutch? No but they do have far better player developmentover over the years. Sprinkle in a Holliday here and a Beltran there and you get the idea. Oh yeah they're better ran, but they're getting very lucky this year to have those numbers. Yep. Last year they were 9th in MLB in BA w/RISP (which, of course, is still quite good). It's just not a repeatable skill.
  3. "What is it about the Cardinals that lets them perform so well with RISP?" Jesus these guys are annoying. How about the giant horseshoe out your ass that you have to have to put up that kind of BABIP with RISP to begin with? Think that could be involved?
  4. BOOM! Suck it, St. Louis. Cubs win!
  5. If Pete [expletive] Kozma gets a big hit here...
  6. You can't rule out a St. Louis player until he's dead. And even then nothing would totally shock me.
  7. On a related note, God bless whoever put an end to that ridiculous "Moreland doing PBP" idea. Sirott's not great either, but he's a giant leap forward from Keith.
  8. They really need to quit scheduling the Cubs and Tigers for Fox games at the same time.
  9. Please oh please keep this up Castro. So nice to see.
  10. 3 of them are at night. Saturday is a 6pm Fox game.
  11. He inherited his former skipper's ability to always be right, especially when he's dead [expletive] wrong. Nice to get one off these pains in the ass.
  12. That completely unsustainable rate couldn't happen to a nicer franchise
  13. Good to see some regression to the mean for Edwin Jackson the last couple starts. Only took half a season.
  14. 2016 would be a bit late, but 2014 is super optimistic. Not impossible, but it would require him absolutely nuts mashing every level. So, 2015 is what you're saying? :-)
  15. Now, only If Yadi were next.... There would need to be about 4 or 5 of those to actually do any damage to that team.
  16. Not the same thing, obviously, but flashbacks to September 07 Soriano right now.
  17. It would be beneficial for Guerrier to retire this hitter
  18. You need one of the official Cubs' scorecards. In the scorecard, it lists the other teams' pitchers alphabetically and assigns them numbers (from 1 to, say, 14 max). Those numbers are the ones they put up. Ah, thanks. I had figured it was alphabetical in some way but wasn't sure.
  19. While we're talking about the scoreboard, has anyone ever figured out the meaning of the numbers they use in the SP and RP columns on the non-Cubs games? It's been 13 years since my first game there and I still have no clue.
  20. Ads on the clock? Ok.
  21. Wow. If the RD Jonah Keri cited in his 'the 30' column this morning is correct, that means we are +20 in any inning but the 8th.
  22. I'm guessing Luis will be around a while. He's a nice piece while at the same time being unlikely to fetch enough in trade to make it worth dealing him.
