  1. Give me some useful information from the future, o traveler of time. (The date in the thread title should probably be changed)
  2. His numbers are still pretty damn impressive for a guy who pitches in a joke of a band box like they have in Houston. His WHIP and k to BB ratio have remained right around his career level for the last 3 years, so this is clearly a guy who can still deal. I don't think the Cubs need to go out and get him, but if he could be had for the right deal it would be a good move. Having too many starters is a good position to be in. Ideally the Cubs could move Lilly and Silva at some point this season to help recoup what it would take to get Oswalt.
  3. Stop pretending like ERA doesn't matter. If we're examining four seasons of stats, it's a valid way of arguing a pitcher's decline. At least I didn't mention Ws and Ls. There's a difference between recognizing what it can show and tossing it out there like his increasing ERA is indicative of a steady decline since 2006, which clearly isn't the case when one doesn't limit that conclusion to being based on his ERA.
  4. OH NO! NOT HIS ERA! Better not bother checking anything else out.
  5. Some people are incredibly stubborn and are very prideful. Aramis may be one of those people. Sure, there's that, but that would also basically require him to be an idiot and completely ignore how he's killing his opportunity to opt out and get a much better contract.
  6. Based on their numbers so far this season he's already much worse than Grabow.
  7. Fair enough, though it does beg the question of why the Cubs would either ignore him being injured in some form and expect him to play through it and/or why Aramis would do such a thing or attempt to "hide" an ongoing injury issue when it's so clearly impacting his play.
  8. So what's the point of the "conspiracy?"
  9. I can't wait to see the Lakers vs. the Celtics. Both teams are kicking ass right now, and I'd sure as hell rather see that than the alternatives.
  10. Vlad ground to 3rd, Aramis to 2nd; CUBS WIN!!!
  11. And that's why you don't dish out leadoff walks.
  12. Castro strikes out Michael Young with a slider.
  13. Wait, are you saying Ortiz DOESN'T give you faith that Aramis can bounce back? Ortiz over the last month: .308 .361 .646 1.007 with 7 home runs.
  14. How come you don't want Marmol closing the door?
  15. Just like people always ask why pitchers don't always throw low and away to Soriano, I wonder why pitchers this year don't just always throw high and outside to Aramis, because he [expletive] sure loves impotently flailing at those pitches like a goon.
  16. Dear Aramis, Please stop hitting like butt. Love, N&G
  17. The Aram-a-walkoff didn't fix much.
  18. Wow, talk about getting dissed: walking Castro to get to Lee.
