    High five.
  2. Sammy Sofa
    I only want Quade leaning towards having an answer if his answers are "Fukudome, Fukudome and SP."
  3. Sammy Sofa
    ... They haven't played a single ST game yet.
  4. Sammy Sofa
    God damn; Quade is like something out of a fevered nightmare. Castro cares even less about his photo than his defense: http://d.yimg.com/a/p/sp/getty/1f/fullj.88ab349172d1fa5d7dd1bf291f472d94/88ab349172d1fa5d7dd1bf291f472d94-getty-108039184es108_chicago_cubs.jpg Wood is apparently running for president: http://d.yimg.com/a/p/sp/getty/6b/fullj.61d4fdbb2026e3782539dd2a32755dc1/61d4fdbb2026e3782539dd2a32755dc1-getty-108039184es089_chicago_cubs.jpg

    He's the best that KNOWS HOW TO WIN. Teixeira and Gonzalez majored in losing.
  6. Sammy Sofa
    We need a ruling: is this more or less negative a message than choosing to use a position player as a reliever instead of a starting pitcher after the bullpen is depleted?
  7. Sammy Sofa
    "Unhip?" Most teams wisely lock up any young, good 3B they have for a long, long time.
  8. Sammy Sofa
    Stop it.
  9. Sammy Sofa
    Man, if you can motivate someone to [expletive] in your spot then I don't feel sorry for you at all. You have to REALLY piss people off to inspire that kind of response.
  10. Sammy Sofa
    I love this man so very much.
  11. Sammy Sofa
    Dusty is Michael Scott.
  12. Sammy Sofa
    You two are adorable.
  13. Sammy Sofa
    Christ.
  14. Sammy Sofa
    because he got drilled by the [expletive] pirates, not because dusty was being responsible. Yeah, you really think Dusty would have taken Harang out after 73 pitches if he had only allowed a run on four hits through six innings? [expletive] no. What kind of message would that send?
  15. Sammy Sofa
    That doesn't make it correct.
  16. Sammy Sofa
    Are you saying that you would actually prefer Zambrano or Garza? No it doesn't matter to me. WHOA, NOW YOU'RE TALKING CRAZY. Messages must be sent.
  17. Sammy Sofa
    Man, you are all about messages.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    What the [expletive] is wrong with you? seeing a second basemen pitch in a game we're willing to effectively forfeit is sufficiently fun to risk having a moron like Baker use a SP in the 15th inning after almost every fan has gone to sleep? i'm trying to reconcile all of this. What is there to reconcile? Who here is talking about just giving up on a game once it hits a certain number of innings besides you? Those of us talking about effectively forfeiting game are talking about preferring the Cubs to do that if it's essentially a meaningless game and the bullpen has been used up, not just "oh, it's the 14th inning and we still have a couple of relievers left...let's pack it in!!!"
  19. Sammy Sofa
    Oh, right, because it'll just be a typical "extra inning game" and not an 18 inning monstrosity where Quade has depleted the bullpen when people are "screaming for the Cubs to give up;" what a silly, stupid thing to say. Yes, unless it's a critical game I'll almost always prefer that the Cubs effectively pack it in if it's tied and there's nobody left in the bullpen. That's almost always a much better option than trying to squeeze relief work out of a starter.
  20. Sammy Sofa
    Sure it is. Why are you going to risk so much more over a single game that has virtually no meaning in the big picture? If you're such a shitty manager that you've used up your bullpen options, well, sometimes you just have to effectively toss it in when the game is going twice as long as usual. That's as no-brainer as it gets. Though you probably think Votto should have dropped a sick bunt bro at some point, so what the [expletive] do you know?
  21. Sammy Sofa
    I did. UPDATE: he was not receptive http://www.csnchicago.com/sportsnetChicago/thumbnails/Sportsnet_-_Chicago/14/577/CTL_promo_2-15.jpg http://www.csnchicago.com/sportsnetChicago/thumbnails/Sportsnet_-_Chicago/14/577/CTL_promo_2-15.jpghttp://www.csnchicago.com/sportsnetChicago/thumbnails/Sportsnet_-_Chicago/14/577/CTL_promo_2-15.jpg http://www.csnchicago.com/sportsnetChicago/thumbnails/Sportsnet_-_Chicago/14/577/CTL_promo_2-15.jpg
  22. Sammy Sofa
    Yeah, bust your brains on that one, "Dusty bashers."
  23. Sammy Sofa
    Yeeeesh.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    Definitely not. They should obviously be listening to deals for Byrd, but it might be in there best interests to keep him through his final year. I really don't think Colvin is going to be good enough to justify him being the regular RF, especially with Soriano's declining production over in LF. Who are going to be FA outfielders after 2011?
  25. Sammy Sofa
    Why the ? at 2B? Unless he tanks isn't it pretty much a given that it would be DeWitt there in 2012 in that scenario?
