  1. Yup, today's homer broke McGriff's record and Sosa now has gone yard in 44 ballparks. Does anyhave a list of parks he has homered in? Or parks he hadsn't homered in? I'd like to see how much higher he can push this. Just read today that the only current parks he has not homered in are RFK and Busch III. The Rangers play in neither of those parks this season.
  2. I have heard the same thing. From what I hear, Calvin and Russel both wanted 15% more than Williams got last year, and Quinn would take a lot less, close to what was paid last year for Williams. From what I've been hearing, the Raiders gave Quinn an offer that would be considered a low-ball offer for a 1st overall pick but would be better than what he'd get in the 7-9 range. If true, it is a smart move on the Raiders part. except for the part about DRAFTING BRADY QUINN =D> Post of the freakin' day. Quinn is a late first rounder. Way to screw the pooch AGAIN, Oakland. Is it a bannable offense to make fun of all the Quinn-bashers when he inevitably plays well in the NFL? (Except of course he goes to Oakland, then all bets are off)

  4. I don't think anyone's criticizing Lee. On the contrary, we've all been impressed by his hitting so far, but some are worried about his power.
  5. A lot of that slg% is singles driven because he has a jesus christ like .485 babip. When that goes down, and it surely will, that slugging percentage will plummet unless he starts hitting the ball out of the park again. This is very simple guys, I don't know how you keep getting it wrong. Maybe it will, but the fact is Lee's been productive. And he's going to hit home runs again. This isn't the first April Lee's had where he hasn't been hitting homers.
  6. Anyone? This one's the best I've found. http://www.basketballforum.com/chicago-bulls/ I used to post there a lot, but I'm not as into basketball as I am baseball.
  7. Precisely why I didn't open this thread until now.
  8. May I just say I'm enjoying the Bizzaro World fantasy in which a former crappy Cardinals pitcher comes to Chicago and inexplicably does well? Let's keep that ERA under 2 and get another W, Jason.
  9. Goony is Jersey Cubs Fan. I'm shocked this hasn't been cleared up to everyone by now.
  10. It bears repeating. Derrek Lee's OPS in 2007 = 1.034 Derrek Lee's rank in the NL in doubles = 2nd Just because you aren't putting the ball in the seats doesn't mean you're not hitting for power.
  11. 4-5 with 3 XBH's...he never has to hit a homer again if he keeps doing that.
  12. DLee absolutely killing the ball today
  13. Yeah, Floyd was safe, the boys in blue are at it again
  14. Yay Babe DeRosa. I'm happy to be wrong.
  15. How does that guy stay on top of the Pepsi-ball the entire time it's rolling that much? These are the kinds of things I think about.
  16. I could see Lou leaving on these conditions: Cubs continue to flounder, plus new owner comes in looking to make big changes to management. Yankees miss the playoffs and Torre gets canned. At this point I could see the Cubs, Yankees and Lou agreeing to make some sort of deal. Unless that deal includes A-Rod...
  17. What was the name of the standings we posted last year in the race for the #1 pick?
  18. Ball State/Notre Dame? Hmm, good point. Rationalization: BSU never plays ND in an important sport - there's almost no way they'll ever play in men's b-ball or football.
  19. It was extremely loud Steve: "The crowd here is saying something to the effect of 'We don't like Posey, we're not a fan of James...oh here it goes again" :lol:
  20. I don't practice sports bigamy, no matter how ugly my current team is.
  21. My fault for this. I changed my avatar to Rich Hill after his last start. Learned my lesson.
