  1. and how many years has he played 145 games in a season? Since 2001 (including that year): 3 times.
  2. /camera pans to dugout Len: Is that Jim hendry? Bob: I believe it is! What is he doing in there? Len: Dusty's signing something...it can't be...Dusty has just been signed to a lifetime extension. Bob: And there you have it folks, the Cubs will never win a WS.
  3. And as I flip back to my other browser...1-1 between the brewers & phils
  4. Philly is on top of the Brewers, bottom of the first in Milwaukee.
  5. I understand the philosophy of having your pitcher bat 9th and all...but why not have Hernandez bat ahead of Clayton?
  6. Wandy able to get out of the inning. 5-0 Giants.
  7. Seriously. Guillen's only walked 4 times this year. I love gamecenter :)
  8. i love sportsline. instant career stats for the hitter against the pitcher. just thought I'd add that bit of relevance to the topic. Johnson with a single. Come on Z!
  9. Anyone else care to guess before I reveal the answer? Pierre?
  10. Did dusty read my posts or something? now THAT'S a lineup I can get behind. LETS GO CUBS!
  11. he owns Livan. .571 lifetime in over 20 ABs. great. fantastic. bat him 7th/8th please.
  12. big fan of the big murt batting 2nd, not a big fan of the big whiff batting 5th :(
  13. Bynum LF Perez SS Walker 1B Jones CF Mabry RF Hairston 2B Theriot 3B Blanco C Rusch P Move Perez to 3rd, Theriot to the OF somewhere, and put Cedeno at SS and we have 6 potential 2B starting in one game.
  14. You gotta get angry! You gotta get mean! Let's turn into the Charlestown Chiefs of professional baseball! Let's goon up the diamond! When we hit the ball, we carry our bats with us and beat every fielder that gets in our way! Or we could lose. Either one. Doesn't particularly bother me.
  15. DON'T SPIKE THE FREAKING BALL YOU GIRL
  16. Jones : .311 OBP 5 Walks Giles : .401 OBP 28 Walks Does Giles spike the ball into the ground regularly? No? Oh well.
  17. Just curious, what do you mean by this? I think he means that it's been so long that Dempster had forgotten.
  18. Seriously, he's been phasing Murton of the lineup for some time now, pushing him lower and lower. I dont understand it. He's one of our most productive hitters and somehow in the dog house with big ol Dusty. Whatever........... What I love is how our better OBP players like Walker and Murton get benched continually, when crappy OBP hitters like Neifi, Pierre, and Jones continue to be put into the lineup whenever possible. To be fair, I don't think Walker has been subject to this philosophy. Before Lee got hurt, he was.
  19. Not all of our perceptions have changed. The example you set forth above lends credence to those of us that believe that deal wasn't a fleecing, but rather a logical result of being at the right place, at the right time, with the right periphrial circumstances. That is to say, the ARam deal didn't require a genius to construct. The Pirates were hamstrung by salary and inept organizational direction. Hendry needed a 3B and the Pirates were an obvious fit. However, if you look closely at that deal and recall the circumstances surrounding, there exists room for criticism as Hendry allowed Pittsburgh to hold the Cubs hostage with the PTBNL (who ended up being Hill). Recall that Grudz got injured and was out for an extended period. The only logical replacement for the Cubs was Bobby Hill. Whether you are a Hill hater or not, he would have been nice to have on hand during Grudz's injury. However, Hendry's lack of foresight failed to recognize that giving the Pirates a number of days to choose between Hill and Beltran hurt the club due to its lack of middle infield options. Hendry if not remotely the GM some hold him out to be. if it was so easy, why didn't one of the allegedly smarter gm's pull it off then? Timing and need, if I had to guess.
  20. Dempster as a reliever last year: 4-0, 1.85 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, 53 K, 58.1 IP
  21. wow. And we were complaining about that JDE guy trolling?
  22. did anyone else turn off/walk away from the game when they saw Mabry standing at the plate? Or were you already gone after the Piazza home run. Or maybe after the Jones throw. Or maybe after the lineups were announced and you saw that Murton & Barrett were sitting.
  23. Dudes, we have to have speed against piazza. Murton & his two stolen bases against Piazza in San Diego can go to hell!
