  1. I agreed. Cedeno looks lost, and overmatched, not to mention he has lost some confidence. Swinging at a ball over your head in a bases loaded situation, and then swinging at a 45 ft curveball in the 9th. He needs help in the worst way. I know I am going to get booed, but right now, Cedeno needs to go to AAA, Nefti needs to temp start (provided he gives up the switch-hitting, and concentrate on batting RH ONLY), and Theriot to be called up. Cedeno has been looking very Corey-esque as of late, especially today, and that's worrisome. On the upside, at least Pierre and Jones are staying hot. I know it's likely Hendry will just hold onto them, but part of me thinks maybe he'll do the smart thing and trade while their value is high.
  2. Novoa is alright, but nothing special. I think, or more accurately, I HOPE he's up instead of Wuertz because the Cubs intend to use Novoa as part of a trade by the time next season rolls around and are trying to show him off a little bit and they're planning on holding onto Wuertz.
  3. Agreed. Every thread CBB seems to go into he manages to get an anti-Sox comment in there. Ditto. He seems to be more concerned with bashing the Sox or even the Cardinals than discussing the Cubs. It got real old, real fast.
  4. Like a few are mentioning, I think the slim bright side here is it's sounding like Wood realizes that his future might be in the bullpen, and if the Cubs can sign him for VERY cheap over the next 2 years, I think they should. I still love the idea of Kerry Wood: Super Closer.
  5. Maybe. I'm not saying this is the same injury from 1, 2 or 3 years ago, but I do think everything is related. It starts with being overused in 2003, then having to compensate for the achilles on top of that, then the freak injuries and having to adjust for those and now the sickness-filled off-season. It seems like he needs the time to get things back into place and heal fully. This would be the perfect season to do such a thing with a pitcher that is still very young, has massive potential and talent, and could anchor your team's starting staff for the better part of a decade at least if handled right at this point.
  6. C-Lee flies out to RF! DAS COOBS WIN!!!
  7. Dempster gets Weeks swinging on 3 straight pitches!
  8. Sweet, Dempster's in to finish it off. 1-2-3, Demp!
  9. Lee strikes out for the 3rd time today.
  10. 1st pitch wild, Pagan scores. Pierre and Mabry to 3rd and 2nd.
  11. Dan Kolb in to pitch for the Beer-Boys.
  12. Mabry walks. Bases loaded for D-Lee. Do it to it, Derrek!
  13. Slap Nasty singles with his hot bat...Pagan to 2nd, Neifi scores using the power of chicken-legs.
  14. Cedeno strikes out swinging, and looks hideous doing it.
  15. Mike Rivera grounds out to 3rd. Jones due up for Das Coobs.
  16. Wow, pretty much the entire bullpen has been in today. I thought Glendon was supposed to eat innings as well as he ate pies?
  17. he's not going anywhere, the brewers are negotiating to lock him up now...they will be adding before the break, not selling I agree there's little to no chance of him being traded, but unless they make a serious run in the 2nd half, I wouldn't be surprised if he signs elsewhere in the off-season.
  18. DOUBLE SWITCH TIME! Howry in for Eyre, Neifi in for Walker. We're saved, folks!
