  1. What's up with Ward? No hits yet this year. I'm used to him being automatic.
  2. Fukudome caught that ball and took two steps. Bad, bad, bad break.
  3. Phillies color guy made a good point - Z's velocity is down but he's way more under control. "He looks like a different pitcher." Credit Rothschild for that, I suppose. Z's been fantastic so far in 08.
  4. I'm waiting for Z to be a good hitter again.
  5. 2 runs with Z on the hill. I'm liking this.
  6. Just drag the blue block next to the player's name and a DL slot should appear as an option.
  7. I like that top five a LOT. That top five is going to score even more hits than Myers will after the game.
  8. Remember when Brett Myers threw a bunch of wild pitches to give the Cubs the win last August 1st and put us in 1st place? Those weren't the last wild pitches he threw that night if you know what I mean.
  9. How the hell are we only a half-game out of first?
  10. A 12-inning game where the Cubs left about 6,000 men on base. A 15-inning game where the Cubs blew 2-run leads from the 8th inning on. A game where the Cubs' starting pitcher went 3 innings and looked awful directly after the previous two games. And we won them all.
  11. FONTASTIC!!!! Dear lord, this is going to be a rout after the 1st inning disaster!
  12. Fukuwalk He's been on base all 9 games so far
  13. Yeah, why give a young player a chance to learn from his mistakes. Yeah, who cares about improving your chances of winning. Reed Johnson really gave us something that Pie couldn't have right there. Besides, it's april and we're facing matt morris - what better time to let someone who is supposed to be our top prospect play? If people aren't ever willing to let a young guy play through his struggles, well, then it's no wonder we rarely ever have a decent position player prospect. It's not like our prospects go elsewhere, play with more 'patient' managers, and flourish, though. Corey's doing pretty well with Cincy right now, but I can't think of any recent example of a former Cubs 'bust' doing anything with anyone else. Good DP there.
  14. Fonzie and Fontenot make a good team up there, haha. Let's go MVLee.
  15. Agreed. We gave him an extended look last year and he sucked then, so this isn't necessarily a sample size issue. You can't play the young guys just for the sake of playing them, they have to at least show something out there. That's coming off incredibly Dustyish, I imagine.
