  1. It's not. Unless the Cardinals seriously stumble or this team as a drastic turnaround they're not going to be in contention to ever overtake them. And forget about the WC. Well, the NL is terrible. Who's the frontrunner for the wild card? The Mets? The Giants? Certainly not the Cubs. What have we seen that indicates they're not going to just stumbled half assed across the finish line lucky to be at .500?

  3. Anyone who regrets moving prospects of any level for Adrian Gonzalez should get a pipe to the dome.
  4. I agree. I'm terrified of the midseason move where Hendry trades several top prospects for a mediocre veteran reliever. Unless Aramis and Lee have pretty significant rebounds I don't think there's much worry to worry about in that regard. They're going to be nowhere near the WC or the Cardinals.
  5. re: Heyward: no re: Leake: yes re: Might want to rethink that: you.
  6. Yeah, those guys are total flukes and couldn't possibly have success against any other team. Only the Cobs, amirite?
  7. Yeah, Lou isn't the reason this team stinks. He's certainly not helping and contributing to the suck, but even the best manager would probably only have this team at .500 right now with their two most important hitters in the toilet.
  8. [expletive], I'll happily take some kind of sucktacular Nady/Hoff 1B platoon monster if it means they'll unload the contents of a money bin on Adrian Gonzalez' doorstep.
  9. Or just use Gorzelanny as the setup guy. THEY DON'T HAVE TO BE RIGHTIES.
  10. Or just use Marshall as the setup man, since you're sure as [expletive] not getting a good one for Gorzelanny and a "mid-level prospect."
  11. I have a feeling it'll be the forfeit lineup overall with the relative early start after last night.
  12. Hopefully we don't have to care what he does next year when the Cubs do the smart thing and don't re-sign him, and it would be the smart thing to do even if he wasn't in the lull that he's in.
  13. Man, baseball games between mediocre teams are really boring.
  14. I'd kill for our 2B to be able to do that.
  15. The way this inning played out was indeed sucktacular, but 3 hits in an inning are by no means a guarantee to score. True, but 3 hits THAT inning should have plated 1 run minimum and probably 2. Agreed. Just saying.

  17. What an incredibly stupid inning. This game should be tied right now.
  18. What the [expletive] is Aramis thinking not getting to 2nd?
  19. What the [expletive] was Quade thinking? Byrd is not fast and Bruce has a gun. Stupid, stupid send.
  20. There's nothing wrong with someone being a good first pitch hitter if they have a talent for recognizing a good one to hit.
  21. Grabow's got the 2008 Bob Howry role of the overpaid veteran reliever who has to go out there no matter how much he sucks. Though Howry at least kicked ass 2 of his 3 years with the Cubs. And he looked like some kind of awesome, murderous cyborg sent back from the future to murder John Connor.
