  1. Hmmmmmmmmmmm....touche, Edmonds. Touche. Edmonds will not have TWO hits today.
  2. That's why when he was traded to Washington he agreed to switch from 2B to LF, no? Good call, its the Cubs preventing him from playing that position, although he's Weeksian at 2B. I have heard he refuses to play CF now, though. Based on what? All of his public comments (and comments about him from the organization) is that he'll play and hit wherever the team tells him to. I haven't heard any kind of source, leaked or otherwise, indicating anything else. Then you haven't been paying close enough attention to wrigley23's posts. No kidding. Soriano has his obvious flaws, but some people seem to love adding on things they've completely made up or assumed.

  4. Hah! The conundrum that is Soriano, all in about 5 seconds.
  5. Edmonds will not have a hit today.
  6. I prefer "pansied into becoming babies."
  7. He's the epitome of baseball dinosaurs in his refusal to look at the few games/players he actually pays attention in the context of the game having evolved in the last 30 years.
  8. This post is insane. The first paragraph is testosterone driven junk. Do you have anything on which to back this up? Any evidence of routine 130 pitch games in the good ol days or that having young pitchers throw tons of pitches would "build arm strength" - you know what would be great, if every high school pitcher pitched both ends of a double-header. That would certainly build arm strength, so they should be immune from abuse injuries in the future, right? Posts like the one you're replying to act like the game itself hasn't changed over the years. Mound height, types of hitters, types of pitches...all factors that change how pitchers can approach the game.
  9. I had to do it I don't think I'll ever understand the complete and utter vitriol this board has for that guy It's hardly just this board. Thinking Joe Morgan is a joke as a baseball analyst and as an announcer is practically the new national pastime.
  10. Awful. Horrible. Terrible.
  11. I'm a Cardinal fan and have been since birth. I have alot of Cubbie fan friends. Acutally, the majority of them are Cub fans. With both teams playing well right now, how cool and exciting would a pennet race between these two rivals be? I'm not sure if my blood pressure could take it, but a one game playoff to decide the winner or even better, a game 7 NLCS game, would be amazing. Off topic, I know. Awful, awful ideas. Sorry, nothing aganst you, but I have no desire to see that.
  12. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see the Reds creep back into the race like the Astros did for a bit down the stretch last season. They've got enough weapons that Dusty can only hold them back so much.
  13. You're seeing the ball horribly if you don't at least defensively swing at that.
  14. Dempster would walk the lineup if they would let him. I've been very impressed with Dempster this year, but he's been giving up way too many walks (and a lot of them to crappy teams/batters) all season for it to not eventually bite him hard.
