    Unless it's injury-based I would recommend not worrying your darling little head about it.
  2. Sammy Sofa
    You're becoming concerning.

    Makes sense... having both Theo and Jed is gonna help but we're still going to need to make at least one move in the next week to ten days so we can get everything done we need to get done by the deadline. While the more rational Cubs fans eagerly await the commencing of the sale, I'm very curious to see how the, for lack of a better term meat headed fans react to a fire sale when the team is finally starting to play well for an extended stretch. What? Dempster and Garza have been talked about as being as good gone for a while now. The meatballs are well versed.

    A LOT of [expletive] counts. It's fun to see him hit, but man, he is swinging at nearly everything.
  5. Sammy Sofa
    Temporarily.
  6. Sammy Sofa
    Enough.

    Oh, I'm not arguing against him closing; I'm just not optimistic that he'll be very appealing as part of a trade.

    Eh, he's had a few good games, but several were similarly stressful like yesterday, where he managed to escape despite putting two guys on base and coming this close to giving up a game-tying home run. His velo is up to 95 again and his slider has been better, he'll cont. to have poor control but his numbers have been better since mid-June even with his Mitch Williams syndrome. I'm glad his K ratio is back to where it was when he was an all-star as it has been for about the last month. He's definitely shown improvement, but he's got a nasty contract plus a sustained period of mediocrity or worse to go along with a really violent delivery. Ideally, yes, I hope he can keep up what he's been doing until the offseason...I just have my doubts he'll be able to.

    They also might just be hedging their bets at a position that has seem pretty crappy production league-wide. If Vitters falters, hey, great, ideally they have someone else to turn to. If both look to be the real deal, hey, great, you've got a valuable asset in a major trade.
  11. Sammy Sofa
    You mean the Ryan Dempster of 2008? OH, SO SMALL AND SO NERVOUS.
  12. Sammy Sofa
    $44 of $46 million? There better be a top prospect in that kind of deal, that's absurd to get next to nothing in return for giving Soriano away for $1 million per year for the rest of the contract. Yeah if there isn't a decent prospect involved, he's more valuable as protection for Rizzo in the lineup. STOP IT.
  13. Sammy Sofa
    He didn't. Like you said, I think most assumed he'd be back out.
  14. Sammy Sofa
    Man, Rizzo is badass, but his stance is one of the least impressive I've ever seen.
  15. Sammy Sofa
    CASTRO WALKS.
  16. Sammy Sofa
    As someone posted many pages ago, Soriano leaving means Rizzo loses his protection in the lineup. Other things were said about that.

    Cutler could not have possibly given less of a [expletive] about being there. I fuckin' love that guy.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    My "goals" don't have to change at all because I'm just a guy watching baseball games. What a weird thing to say.

    Enjoy it now, it's about to get a lot worse. http://pendletonpanther.files.wordpress.com/2008/11/debbie.gif?w=480 [expletive]. I think it's more exciting than something to be sad about. The [expletive] it is. The end result down the line will be better, but I'm not going to delude myself into thinking that at this moment I would enjoy seeing them bottom out more than what they've been doing recently.

    This is pleasant.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    Oh, thank God.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    Man, Rizzo really doesn't want to take any pitches right now.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    Meh...400? It doesn't really mean anything. I mean, good for him, but nobody goes nuts over 400 home runs anymore.
  25. Sammy Sofa
    Ugh, no. [expletive] stolen bases.
