    Barrett apparently trying to burp Lilly.
  2. Sammy Sofa
    DLee is normally a 100+ K guy. Even in 2005 he had 109. Don't know his current pace but I'd be it's around normal. Cool. I didn't know he was usually north of 100.
  3. Sammy Sofa
    Lee seems to be striking out a lot lately. Not that I'm trying to say there's something wrong, it just seems more than usual this year.
  4. Sammy Sofa
    Good God, this game is going to take forever!
  5. Sammy Sofa
    But there is no reason to sac bunt in the first inning with Lee and Aram coming up. I don't think it was a sac bunt.
  6. Sammy Sofa
    With their speed, it definitely can be interesting in a good way to see Felix try and bunt with Sorinao on base. Not this time, though.
  7. Sammy Sofa
    Ewwwwwwwww, Felix pops out on a bunt.
  8. Sammy Sofa
    Do Sori proud, Pie.
  9. Sammy Sofa
    Alright! Double for Soriano!
  10. Sammy Sofa
    Nice at-bat thus far for Sori. Taking a lot of pitches.
  11. Sammy Sofa
    Soriano and Pie are adorable.
  12. Sammy Sofa
    Please win, my darlings.
  13. Sammy Sofa
    I try to be open minded, but I just can't handle that. Do they make you cry?
  14. Sammy Sofa
    So is Ward actually injured or were they just making room for Pie? Sucks either way...Ward has been the first decent regular pinch hitter for the Cubs that I can remember in, well, a REALLY long time.
  15. Sammy Sofa
    You win. Soriano's spot in the order is not the problem, or even a problem at all. And moving him in the order to put Pie of all people in the leadoff spot would be an awful decision. No one (at least not me) is saying Soriano's spot in the order is a problem. It's just that we have another player (Theriot) that most likely can get on base as much as Soriano. It's a waste of resources to have a guy with his power potential batting leadoff. He doesn't hit as well when not hitting leadoff.
  16. Sammy Sofa
    I'd love to see him hitting 5th. I don't understand everyone insisting he should be batting leadoff. The team is not winning with him batting leadoff and I seriously doubt they would be any worse if he moved to 5th. Theriot batting leadoff with Murton 2nd followed by Lee, Aram, and Soriano. It has possibilities. Do something, anything. The status quo is not working. He's a better hitter hitting leadoff. Maybe it's a mental thing...
  17. Sammy Sofa
    I'm really not sure why that would happen. It's clear the Cubs promised him he could hit leadoff, and his career stats indicate he's better batting leadoff. They aren't losing because Soriano is batting leadoff...though his lack of power isn't helping. But it's not like that lack of power is going to vanish if he moves around.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    Dammit, I was almost right.
  19. Sammy Sofa
    Don't be ridiculous. There is no end to the ways the worst organization in the history of human civilization can embarass itself and its fans. The next step...players fighting fans.
  20. Sammy Sofa
    Barrett and Zambrano would still be emotional and mental midgets despite the apparently magical and godlike presence of Joe -freakin'-Girardi.
  21. Sammy Sofa
    Quite frankly, I don't care who started it. This is just flat out embarassing. These guys should be ashamed for acting like that in the middle of a game.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    I really would like to think that with all the recent drama and getting swept by the Fish and screwing up basic baseball fundamentals and just generally being crappy, the Cubs come out of this off day having had some kind of revelation and really buckle down and play some damn good baseball, at least for a couple of weeks. That said, however, I am a Cubs fan, and sadly, I know better.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    Two chicks at the same time, man.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    I'm allergic to fake rallies.
  25. Sammy Sofa
    Lou Piniella also sounded like Mr. Perfect before the regular season. Maybe for some... I never bought into it and I know a lot of other fans in the same position as me. He is/was a million years ahead of Dusty though Agreed on that first part. There were a LOT of reservations about Lou on this site and many others.
