    Very nice inning for Grabow.
  2. Sammy Sofa
    Wait, is Colvin hitting clean up?
  3. Sammy Sofa
    Absolutely no reason for Soto to not be hitting for Hill here. Yeah, Aardsma's been much worse against LH hitters...but Hill sucks balls.
  4. Sammy Sofa
    Come on, Milton walk off.
  5. Sammy Sofa
    Why?

    The end of Ted Lilly's MLB career is going to be hideous.

    There's not been a cheap productive player alive that WSR hasn't wanted to trade.

    I'll throw up if I see Jonathan Silverman in the dugout But he's so good at math.
  9. Sammy Sofa
    Don't be fooled by the apathy I've got; I'm still I'm still Fukudome on the block.
  10. Sammy Sofa
    DAMMIT. I'm giving it 110% 100% of the time.

    No, please, I couldn't possibly have another bite of delicious, delicious irony.

    You could have stopped after "I'm lost."
  13. Sammy Sofa
    Oh, wow. I want full credit for finding this one.

    I don't know if I'd call a .254 average with 27 RBI over the three summer months "killing" it. Wait, what? How does July and August become three months? How can someone come to the conclusion that he sucks in the summer if he's a very good player for 2 of the 3 summer months? It's not like his July and August numbers are propped up with a decent performance stretched out over relatively few PA. In July he had 103 PA and managed a .926 OPS. In August he pulled off a .904 OPS, again in 103 PA. His horrible June was over the course of 96 PA. I am simply baffled as to how anyone can come to the conclusion that he sucks in the summer based on his 2009 numbers. This tangent just gets increasingly bizarre. And now he's getting slammed for "only" having 24 RBI in July and August? What? He had 12 RBI's in each month, which is 2nd only to his April, where had 15, that people keep talking about like it was some amazing month he'd never come close to again.

    I wouldn't necessarily say "really streaky." Soriano strikes me as a really streaky player. Fukudome definitely has his peaks and valleys, but his valleys last year seemed relegated to a couple of a long stretches as opposed flipping on and off like a streaky player like Soriano does. It's not as though there's only one "really streaky" crown in the castle. I'm just saying, it's not a description I would think accurately describes Fukudome. All players are streaky in one way or another, but he really hasn't shown himself to be a player of relatively short term peaks and valleys like Soriano.

    Soriano really hasn't even had one of his infamous cold streaks this year to this point. And weren't people saying at the beginning of the year that Soriano and Soto having rebound years was the key to this team's success? Well they've both rebounded and we're worse this year. I'm sure next year they'll be saying the same thing about Lee and Ramirez. Well, those two bouncing back and then Aramis not missing half of the season (presuming he would produce as Aramis normally has). And assuming that Lee would have put together some reasonable approximation of being a serviceable #3 hitter. It's depressing because if you had Lee anything even close to what he did last year plus "normal" Aramis and Soto and Soriano doing what they're doing this year plus Byrd and this team is kicking some serious ass. A lot of woulda/coulda/shoulda's, yeah, but I don't think anyone was expecting Lee and Aramis to be such non-factors.

    How again is Soto showing that he's "not out of the ordinary" this year in terms of being a hitting catcher?
  19. Sammy Sofa
    Who cares if it's a summer month? If we're talking about 2009's numbers he killed it in July and August, so there goes the whole "he sucks in the summer months" theory from looking at last season, unless you're now declaring September to be a summer month, too.
  20. Sammy Sofa
    Maybe Dempster, but that's a long shot. Nady likely has some value. They could probably still move Lee if he waived his NTC provided they didn't expect to get too thrilling a return. Fukudome should have some reasonable value so long as the Cubs pick up some of his contract.

    This team is reaching levels of bad that I never thought possible. A Cubs fan couldn't possibly say that with a straight face.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    It's very real when you're watching a bad team.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    Man, I completely forgot that this game was on. How bad has Wells looked? Did the Cubs' errors lead to any of the runs? It seems like it's been way to long since they had a game without an error.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    Giving up a HR to Seattle is pretty bad. You're so silly.
  25. Sammy Sofa
    They've been facing a bunch of LH starters lately.
