  1. http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/4/42/Arrested_Development_-_Good_Grief.jpg Cubs win the next 4, not sweeping the Brewers (natch) or the Cards but taking both series. BOOK IT.
  2. I am not saying this at all to be petty...Prince looks a good 10-15 pounds heavier than when he was here last. And not in the good way.
  3. Will Murton get a ball past the pitcher?
  4. Alright, come on...we had an amazing come from behind win against these humps last year...please do it again.
  5. Just call the game for the Brewers and let everyone go home and go to bed.
  6. Brewers gonna get at least 2 more this inning.
  7. Stop harping on strikeouts as if they're somehow worse than other outs. It makes little difference how someone gets out unless they're always hitting into double plays...an out is an out. Secondly, your final sentence makes absolutely no sense. How will Greene and Soriano "dilute" the OBP of other hitters? That makes absolutely no sense. Let me ask you, since you have such a boner for OBP and hate strikeouts so much...what do you think of Adam Dunn? Does he make your head implode?
  8. who is arguing against that? LLF was ignoring it. Green has a career OPS of .747. Not so great. Would he do better in Wrigley. Certainly. Enough to make it worth while? Maybe. The point is, until it happens, this will remain speculation. His away OPS is .839.
  9. Wow, basically pulled Pie for Fontenot. Lovely. Greene, please.
  10. who is arguing against that? LLF was ignoring it.
  11. You're not on the bandwagon because you're focusing on batting averages. Well done.
  12. It'll go along side my Kerry Wood\Mark Prior SI issue. The 2004 "this is the year" cover? Burn it. And burn this one, too.
  13. Or when Pie puts up better numbers than Johnson over a full season? WE'D HAVE GREENE. Dear Lord, it's not like they'd be trading away Pie for nothing.
  14. We'd have Greene mashing and an offensive hole in CF as opposed (maybe) to offensive holes at CF and SS.
  15. This trade makes too much sense, therefore, it shall never happen.
  16. Look at his home/away splits: http://www.baseball-reference.com/pi/bsplit.cgi?n1=greenkh01&year=00#locat-hmvis Get him away from those cavernous ballparks in the NL west and he tends to rake. You mean like those cavernous places where offense goes to die like Arizona and Coors? The splits would be more informative if the OPS+ number was adjusted for the league, not the team also. The split is obviously hinged more on Petco than anywhere else. It's a pretty startling difference, especially in regard to his power numbers. It's not a stretch at all to think that his home numbers would drastically improve hitting in a place like Wrigley as his home park instead of Petco.
  17. I'd guess Cedeno unless they don't know what they're doing, Theriot. I'd hate like hell to give up Ronny. Two best everyday prospects (I don't think of Soto as one cause he's doing fine) yeah, it'll hurt. I'd hate to give up Cedeno too, but I guess he really dosen't have a place if Greene is on the team. Before the season started I would have jumped at the prospect of getting Greene for Pie+Cedeno but I'm not sure now. Cedeno may never be better than Greene, but I'm starting to think that he might be close enough that I wouldn't want to lose Pie for the difference. He'd be a decent backup SS/2B and if DeRosa goes into an offensive slide he could fill in ok enough bat wise and be an upgrade defensively. Yeah, Pie and Cedeno going would sting but I'm not sure what the Pads have in the minor SS wise, maybe they have a guy ready to come up? They don't, so it's all but assured Cedeno or Theriot would be included, with the former bing much more likely. The new Brian Roberts thread starts NOW. I'm betting this one makes it to 200 pages by the end of May.
