    NICE Baker!

    Good to see Brad Thompson getting all the borderline calls. Haha nice pitch buddy.

    At the very least a reason to tune in every day. It's awesome. But you naturally start setting ridiculously high standards. Like you really expect him to homer just about every at bat. Not thinking he might, but you start to expect it. Absolutely. And when you are a fan of the opposing team, you start dreading when he'll be coming up next but yet secretly looking forward to it because he's that good and cool to watch. I don't secretly look forward to Pujols batting against us, ever. I not so secretly look forward to the time he goes on the DL right before a big series with the Cubs.

    Of course the wind picks up right when DLee knocks the piss out of one.
  5. Andy
    It's not fair. It's not. No one should be able to avoid giving away that he's this good before becoming a professional. At least then a bad team would've gotten him with the 1st pick.

    I don't really cheer for other players to be injured, but last year, I had kind of hoped that he would never be the same that he had been in his Cy Young era. No surprise, he's right back to it.
  7. Andy
    I'm more than a little peeved with Len talking about what a genius Pujols is as if he knew that Fukudome was going to make one of the worst throws I've ever seen him make.

    Keith Moreland sounds unnervingly like a cross between Tim McCarver and Darrell Waltrip in the booth.

    Last year the Cubs had zero 30-homer hitters and had the best offense in the majors, but that's unusual. I'd love to see some more homers.

    Unloading Hinrich's contract and Ty Thomas for a pretty solid player with an expiring contract would be okay with me. I like Boozer and think he'd be a good fit with us. We need some muscle down low.
  11. Andy
    I don't either and I'm actually kind of surprised that he hasn't gotten more heat than he has. The rest of the staff has been great and with our offense it's highly unlikely he'd be doing much better in terms of team win percentage in his starts anyway, so he's kind of been swept under the rug. But yeah, he blows this year.

    After the Mark Mulder era, I derived a theory that the pixie dust doesn't work unless it's a crappy player. Picking up guys who are actually useful at baseball like DeRosa won't help.

    hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

    He's got to be the most random former Cubs to sing. Not just singing, but he's constantly making guest CSN analyst appearances and all this other stuff. I don't remember him ever doing anything except hitting a ground ball triple in the NLCS.

    Why exactly does Doug freaking Glanville get to be an ambassador of Cubdom?
  16. Andy
    DPLEE LOLZ! 5-4-LEE!

    Fukudome was called out on a DP grounder at 2nd base when replays showed he was there literally about a second before the ball got to the Brave's glove.
  18. Andy
    Unfortunately, that's not a play you can protest. And it was a horrible call....much worse than the Jeter one. Will it be on PTI? Umm....no.
  19. Andy
    Honestly, this umpiring crew is getting on my [expletive] list. Two awful calls in two days at 2nd base.
  20. Andy
    I've never heard Len denounce a call like that. It was unbelievably horrible.
  21. Andy
    Hart's got to go, he's not useful right now. I wish Patton would go too, but he probably won't. My guess, for no good reason: Hart, Hoffpauir and Samardzija go down, but I wouldn't be surprised to see some sort of other move made.
  22. Andy
    Ryan Franklin is having a pretty good year. I think he just means that it's ridiculous that either one of them were good enough for any extended period to make the team to begin with. Wearing Cards uniforms, natch.
  23. Andy
    It's just not fair that he's on the Cardinals. It's not.
  24. Andy
    It looks bad because of Fox is in his batting stance. But nine times out of ten that pitch is called a strike. The Cubs were fortunate to get the call. I'll go ahead and say 98 times out of 100 that's a strike. We were very fortunate. I didn't even know how to react because I was completely sure that we were headed to another inning until I saw the umpire didn't make any movement. That home plate umpire might have been the worst ump I've seen this year and not just because of that pitch to end the game. He was horrid today. Agreed. On that pitch, in that situation, every ump makes that strike 3 call, right or not. Apparently, except the one we had today.

    Put the Brewers in the http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e67/ndistops/Dumpster.jpg I miss this game but will see the final three of the series. We NEED these.
