  1. It's odd how people often talk about the 2008 team like it was made up of a drastically different offensive lineup when compared to 2007 or 2009. It's not like Hendry succeeded in "making" a new good team that year; it was mostly the same team from 2007 and 2009 and all of the key offensive players happened to kick ass.
  2. That would be quite the feat. http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/z/zambrca01.shtml
  3. $60 million to spend on FA? That's quacktastic.
  4. No I meant the team overall is performing as I expected. Your not making much sense there buddy. Still doesn't make any sense, unless you were being sarcastic and saying you expected it to be their "strength" as in their pitching doesn't quite suck as much as everything else.
  5. Just pointing out the obvious. You're really, really angry right now.
  6. Wow you guys are awesome, this is the reason these boards are a ghost town and there are like 8 people that post here on a regular basis. I never said Barney is the 2b of the future I said I liked what I saw from him so far. Christ learn to read and stop talking for other people. If you run off everyone with an opinion sooner or later you'll be the only ones here left to listen to yours, of course that may be the way you want it and maybe its better that way. Actually, you said people are "eating crow" over Barney, but I did you a favor and dressed it up a little bit.
  7. Whaaaaaaaaaaat the [expletive], Aramis. That 2-0 bitch was begging to be annihilated.
  8. Marlon Byrd with one of the most annoying 10 game-hitting streaks I've ever seen.
  9. Yes, boo Soriano for not diving headfirst into the [expletive] sidewall. Idiots.
  10. The starting pitching is already looking much better just from the big 3 alone (and a little from Coleman). If Dempster has another decent outing today that'll go a long way to showing that the pitching has turned a corner (bullpen's been really good, too).
  11. Quade is baffling. How about: Fukudome Castro Pena Aramis Soriano Soto DeWitt Byrd Better hitters further up the lineup, still a nice mix of righty and lefty hitters...IS THIS REALLY SO HARD?
  12. Wait, so you thought pitching would be their strength...and that the pitching would be terrible? 3 for 3 today, dude.
  13. Well, Vinestal has decided definitively that Pena sucks AND that Barney is the 2B of the future after one month. He knows things.
  14. Thats because so many people on these boards are busy eating the Darwin Barney crow. lol Slow down.
  15. Last 7 days: .313 .450 .875 1.325 Last 14 days: .222 .364 .556 .919 Excellent. What are the odds Quade keeps him buried in the lineup? Pretty damn good.
  16. Yeah, the Cubs are the ONLY MLB TEAM EVER to have an unfortunate or fluke-y ground rule double happen to them. You couldn't possibly have been serious with this, right? It's even more hilarious because you're complaining like the Cubs got cosmically hosed on a ball that Baker got a double off of that almost any CF is going to usually catch and should have been caught today.
  17. I am in awe from the power displayed by this team. I can feel the shockwaves from each titanic blast at Wrigley.
  18. Soriano's 5 for 42 against Arroyo with a .603 OPS. Plus Arroyo has pretty big right/left splits (although the Cubs left-handers don't have good numbers against him historically either). Gotcha. Thanks.
