    Good, because when he hurt his knee again last season his already streaky hitting went straight into the crapper.
  2. Sammy Sofa
    So they opted for surgery on his knee just to coddle his delusions?
  3. Sammy Sofa
    Uh, no he's not. He's not? He's been playing very well for quite some time now.

    He has a perfectly average team to work with complete with a true superstar. We've seen the Bulls have too many halves or quarters where everything breaks down even to the fundamentals. You can't dump that all on the players. We've seen too much glaringly stupid playcalling and streategies (or lack thereof) to give VDN a break and blame it all on the team.
  5. Sammy Sofa
    Yessssss, let me feast on all of your delicious tears.

    Imagine the surprise when some people finally start realizing how all too common a GM of Hendry's caliber is after more "changes."
  7. Sammy Sofa
    There is a big difference between not signing someone because he isn't left handed and signing someone who is right handed, then wishing they were left handed. And yet wishing that someone was lefthanded isn't any kind of an insult.
  8. Sammy Sofa
    Hopefully they wise up and stop expecting him to steal bases. The focus should be on getting him and then him staying healthy enough to hit and play LF and that's it. His bat is far more critical than his ability to steal. That said, it's not like the report or his quote says that he's feeling pain. He's just not pushing the knee to its fullest yet and will do so in ST: Seems like the smarter decision to wait until ST to test the knee.
  9. Sammy Sofa
    Dissing or simply sound logic and common sense?
  10. Sammy Sofa
    If wishes and buts were candy and nuts then Jim Riggleman would be a gigantic fatass.
  11. Sammy Sofa
    This is crazy talk. Your ridiculous, scrambling take on this non-issue is why I said you're "worked up."
  12. Sammy Sofa
    Presumably the comment was after someone specifically asked about or brought up Byrd because he was the one significant signing. I highly doubt that Hendry, out of nowhere, just went off on that tangent as you seem to be implying. It's not really anything to get worked up over since someone has to really jump through hoops to see this as being negative.
  13. Sammy Sofa
    I really don't see where the "insult" is. He's basically saying in a more idealized lineup Byrd would hit left handed. It's not like he slammed him for not being able to hit leftie or bemoaned having him on the team.
  14. Sammy Sofa
    He slapped his noggin with a dirty jockstrap.
  15. Sammy Sofa
    Gibson has been looking really good. Hopefully he's just going to expand that core of Rose-Noah-Deng in terms of good young players that people are going to want to be on a team with.
  16. Sammy Sofa
    A good second baseman is even more fun.
  17. Sammy Sofa
    WE'VE MADE A HUGE MISTAKE.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    Not a surprise, but still wonderful. I hope to one day see a thread title without the "in Arbitration" part.
  19. Sammy Sofa
    Maybe I'm reading it wrong, but it doesn't look like they're losing in Minnesota. What? It's perfectly rational to call a game an hour and a half before it's over.
  20. Sammy Sofa
    Oh, good God.
  21. Sammy Sofa
    Millar is a baseball parasite at this point.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    That is why I didn't like seeing him signed to a "harmless" minor league contract. First you got the media going all "idiots" on them, and then you run the risk of the team actually buying into that chemistry/experience/champion/player nonsense. It was actually a little disconcerting since the Score segment did involve a reporter with the Cubs (I forget which one) doing most of the fawning over Millar because's "such a great guy" and "so much fun." You know what else is fun? Winning. You know who won't help a baseball team do that? Kevin Millar.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    and some of them work. better than sticking with something that wasn't Though in this case Zambrano is dropping a pitch that has arguably worked very well for him.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    Between this and the lovefest the Score was giving Millar earlier today (their logic is that the Chicago teams need him and Damon because they were on the Red Sox in 2004 and were the chief "Idiots" and inspire ye olde clubhouse shemistry so therefore = World Series), I dread this washed up hump somehow making it onto the roster.
