    Yeah Theriot is another Neifi except he plays all out and doesn't make stupid boneheaded mistakes. And Theriot scored 80 runs last year. If he batted leadoff all year he would score 110. Thats not worthless. Theriot isn't great by any stretch of the imagination but he has okay. You can't have a Sori or anything close to it at every position. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What would you put an "OK" player in the slot that sees the most AB's? "Plays all out" means zilch. And please explain how Theriot is "mistake-free" and Neifi was making them left and right in such stark contrast? THEY'RE BOTH AWFUL BASEBALL PLAYERS WHO SHOULD NOT START.

    Soriano wanted that HR bad. Take that, cow.
  3. Sammy Sofa
    GUYS, THERIOT IS PATIENT!!! HE'LL SEE LOTS OF GOOD PITCHES UP THERE AND GRIT SOME HITS OUT OF THEM!!!

    Just stop it. Stop. I'm sick of this garbage defense of a garbage player who belongs on the garbage pile with garbage like Neifi Perez. Theriot has proven nothing except he's barely a baseball player. Soriano has actually proven he's infinitely more valuable in the leadoff role because he scores runs. That's what you want your top of the order hitters to do. Theriot is worthless. WORTHLESS. It's been posted over and over and over again wih excellent and well reasoned arguments as to how bad Theriot is...at this point, some people are just refusing to see it. He's yet another Neifi.

    And our leadoff hitter. Look, straight up, anyone who thinks he should hit at the top of the order, for ANY reason, is baseball-y [expletive]. Stop arguing for it, he sucks, end of story.
  6. Sammy Sofa
    Nice worthlessness, Theriot. It's a shame his grittiness will prevent him being one of the all time most hated Cubs busts.
  7. Sammy Sofa
    Nice speediness, 'Lix.
  8. Sammy Sofa
    The kids'll get in again for the last few innings and tie it up. Which doesn't bode well for the starting lineup come Monday.
  9. Sammy Sofa
    Speed is almost totally irrelevant. You want guys who can get on base and/or score. DeRosa, Fukudome, Soriano and Murton (if he was up) all make infinitely better options in the 1-2 slots. There's zero reason for a hitter as inadequate as Theriot to ever hit anything besides 7-8.
  10. Sammy Sofa
    Holy Christ, having Theriot up there is dumb.
  11. Sammy Sofa
    Why? Seeing better pitches doesn't help enough with someone who is a mediocre or worse hitter. That's like saying Juan Pierre would hit more if he saw better pitches. Hell, Theriot is just like Pierre as a "threat" at the plate...pitchers will feed him anything because he's barely gonna take any pitches or he's likely to just weakly ground/fly out.

    One love, IMB!

    Everyone pay attention to sulleymon, he wants attention.
  14. Sammy Sofa
    I am apathetic towards this "rivalry."
  15. Sammy Sofa
    I think you are forgetting about one Carlos Zambrano. :-" I think you're forgetting Zambrano doesn't bat everyday and bats as a pitcher.
  16. Sammy Sofa
    I have zero faih in Theriot seeing more of anything considering he takes fewer pitches than anyone else on the team.

    GOT THEM WMDs http://www.hbo.com/thewire/img/90x94/characters/balt_pd/valcheck.jpg I hear the WMD is "the bomb." Commissioner Valchek. So depressing.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    Fixed.

    BLUE TOPS. YELLOW TOPS. PANDEMIC.
  20. Sammy Sofa
    Some crazy old guy in the crowd REALLY wants the Cubs to win.
  21. Sammy Sofa
    Oh, there is. They're just all banned from this site.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    HOFFPOWER. CEDENOWNED. That is all for interwebs cliches of the day.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    *BARF*
  24. Sammy Sofa
    Pie's been hitting well...so has Cedeno, Fontenot and Theriot. Not that spring success means they'll be able to pull anything off, bt it would be nice if they ended up not being complete black holes with the bat.
  25. Sammy Sofa
    :roll: What the hell. They do know we have Theriot playing short, right? So, wait, why isn't DeRosa considered a gritty B.A. like theriot is? I mean he's white, he even has the 5 o clock shaddow beard half the time... Derosa is a decent hitter. Gritty players are generally poor hitters or have a last name of Jeter. He's also too tall and looks too old. Gritty players tend to be stuck looking like they're barely out of puberty and are often bordering on midgetdom.
