    It's their feeble 3rd World minds. I mean, who names their kid "Poo-holes??!?!"
  2. Sammy Sofa
    Soto hitting 8th again today.
  3. Sammy Sofa
    And the fun never ends.

    Yeah, teams with money will make room for Fielder/AGon/Pujols if they go onto the FA market, especially if they have the DH option. You really think a team that has at least an extra $20-$20 million a year to spend is going to look at Pujols and say "ooooh, yeah, sorry, we've already got 1st base locked up....maybe next time!"

    Win, you fools. Lou, go away.

    Why? These two guys are seasoned professionals and aren't head cases. It's not like "the pressure" of batting 3rd and 4th is getting to them or anything like that. I don't think it would make any difference to their current slump if they bat in the 4 hole or bat 7th. It matters because they're going to get more AB's if they stay at 3-4. They're horrible right now and the team is better served putting people currently having much more success into those slots until they stop being horrible. It's less a matter of "fixing them" so much as it is getting hitters who can actually hit into two critical spots in the lineup.

    Lee and Aramis are not typically streaky players. Certainly nowhere to the degree that Soriano is, or even Theriot.
  8. Sammy Sofa
    Why not just move Gorzelanny to the bullpen?

    Bob Brenly is terrible at managing a baseball team. It's a little terrifying how many Cubs fans would love to have him manage their team despite listening to his ideas in the booth.
  10. Sammy Sofa
    This shouldn't be such a huge issue, but unfortunately the Cubs have a horrible manager which just makes it an even worse problem. Between Soto, Soriano and Byrd the Cubs can stand to move Lee and Aramis down in the lineup temporarily and give them some extra days off while Lee and Aramis get their [expletive] together. It's hardly like we're talking about anything complicated here. Theriot-Fukudome-Soto-Byrd-Soriano is a perfectly acceptable 1-5 for a week or so. God forbid Lou do anything this simple.
  11. Sammy Sofa
    I really don't want to wish death on someone, but Lou makes it so tempting.
  12. Sammy Sofa
    Seriously, eat a gigantic bag of [expletive], Lou. I can't wait for you to be gone.
  13. Sammy Sofa
    BUNT, YOU SACK OF [expletive]. HAVE FONTENOT BUNT AND THEN PH SOTO. IT'S NOT [expletive] ROCKET SCIENCE.
  14. Sammy Sofa
    Yep, Lou's answer to the problems the offense is having was to move Zambrano to the bullpen. I thought for sure he would hit and run on the 3-2 pitch to Aramis. I know Ramirez has been striking out a lot, but I thought Lou would try to make something happen. Might not have made a difference, but not trying something is not helping. Not that I want Tracy playing, but I wonder if Lee or Ramirez will get a day off tomorrow. Lee definitely needs one off before Aramis. Just start Nady and move him down in the lineup. If it's a RH pitcher go: Theriot Fukudome Soto Byrd Aramis Soriano Nady Fontenot
  15. Sammy Sofa
    Do you think the thought would ever cross Lou's mind to sub a catcher for OFFENSE?
  16. Sammy Sofa
    ' Are we pretending that the Cubs were somehow a lock to be better than the Braves and Mets for that to be weird?
  17. Sammy Sofa
    Yeah, Lou may be talking about the offense, Len, but he's the [expletive] dumbass who insists on keeping Lee and Aramis at 3-4 despite being wretched and sitting Soriano and Soto as much as possible. Go to [expletive] Hell, Lou.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    Oh good, Tyler [expletive] Colvin is hitting 5th. Prove me wrong, you goofy looking bastard.
  19. Sammy Sofa
    I TOLD YOU TO BUNT, DAMMIT.
  20. Sammy Sofa
    Remember when Aramis getting into 2-0 or 2-1 counts was exciting instead of heartbreaking? I miss those times.
  21. Sammy Sofa
    There's always reason to throw Kirk into the scorers' table.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    BUNT BUNT BUNT.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    Sweet, here comes the big gun-... Oh. OH. Right.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    Is it announced like when they tell everyone to assume crash positions in Airplane!?
  25. Sammy Sofa
    Just woke up. That's his only at bat I've seen. Fair enough.
