    Yeah, OK. Keep thinking that.

    Did you ignore the rest of the thread? This is because of a specific injury earlier in the season, not his general fitness level.

    We wouldn't have to worry about the Sox. But the Nationals, the Dodgers, the Cardinals... yeah there are teams who would claim him before we had a shot. I don't see how our chances of Dunn are any better than hoping for the one card suckout. It's just very unlikely... I really like Dunn, but I guess I'm just not rating him as highly as others here. If the Reds and Cubs have an informal/formal agreement that's pretty clearly solid, I don't see other teams diving on Dunn. I could easily be wrong. For the most part, this is a different scenario than the "gentleman's agreement." If we were trying to pass someone we had no intention of trading through waivers to option him, or it's a trade for a rather minor playoff-push role player with a deal in place, yeah - you don't often have a GM putting in a claim merely to hassle. But this is a player the teams would legitimately want and he would legitimately help any club he goes to. Plus, we don't have the means to offer the Reds the best package -- that doesn't mean the "best package" is what the Reds would want but it's more stacked out of our favor. If the Dodgers or Nationals or someone were to want Dunn (and they do), they would have every motive to claim him and probably believe they could top an offer from the Cubs anyway. Of course, I could be wrong too... Thanks for clearing that up! I was fuzzy on a lot of the waivers process, as you can see.

    There's no reason the Cubs aren't at least 3 games up on them. Jerks.

    Wow, he owned that ball. I wonder if anyone got hurt in that massive pile out in the stands. Controversial and all, Bonds is modern baseball. I really enjoyed seeing someone make history like that. This thread title is pretty lame.
  6. Sammy Sofa
    Fixed.
  7. Sammy Sofa
    LOU, THAT IS A SIGN. Sit Floyd and play Murton, dammit.
  8. Sammy Sofa
    Why not get him the work with guys on base we weren't going to win anyway I'd rather not risk it in a throwaway game.
  9. Sammy Sofa
    Oh my God, Kendall is even beyond worthless.
  10. Sammy Sofa
    Yank Wood. Please.
  11. Sammy Sofa
    STAY PAT, YOU FOOLS! STAY PAT!!!
  12. Sammy Sofa
    Subtract Carlos and put in Vlad.
  13. Sammy Sofa
    The Wood/Murton tandem comes in and OWNS.
  14. Sammy Sofa
    Game over.
  15. Sammy Sofa
    Patterson strikes out swinging for the 2nd time on a high fastball. *Shudders*
  16. Sammy Sofa
    What exactly is this in response to? people that are saying that hill (or whoever) tries to strike guys out. and in doing so, nibbles at the corners. I believe that the Cubs have instilled a "k uber alles" mentality in most of, if not all, of their pitching prospects over the last decade. I'm not trying to pick on Hill or single him out.
  17. Sammy Sofa
    I'M TIRED OF YOUR HR FOUL BALLS, OLD MAN.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    Oh man, he struck out so HARD.
  19. Sammy Sofa
    I don't give most of the fans at Wrigley credit enough to even realize Eric and Corey are related. Theriot doing a great job at SS tonight.
  20. Sammy Sofa
    Please. They all suck equally tonight.
  21. Sammy Sofa
    Ahhhhhh, that good ol' Patterson feeling!
  22. Sammy Sofa
    Woody is getting straight up robbed on a lot of these calls.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    Nothing has happened. Trust me.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    FEAR THE POWER!!!! Someone here was raving about how the Cubs were showing they could win with all the "small ball" they had playing and didn't need the power. PSHAW, says me.
  25. Sammy Sofa
    DeRosa too. I love how DeRosa bends over to get a reeeeeall good look at is it lazily floats down the middle of the plate.
