    There's no reason to believe this won't be the case. Dusty shows an obvious preference for Neifi, so it seems likely that he will start at 2B in any games Walker either doesn't play or starts at 1B. I hope to high hell that's not the case. With your best offensive force out of your line-up. What you do NOT do is put in your worst offensive force IN the line-up. You keep his butt out!

    Yeah, let's get Cabrera! But where does he play!? Does he replace Ramirez next year? Or Jones? Knowing Jim Hendry (remember he "really likes" Jones), He's not about to make a move that basically says "look, you are gone after Lee gets back". That in itself can have a negative effect on the team. You are basically expected to play for a team that you know is going to trade you in 2 months. . If he gets Cabrera, he will trade Jones away. And that sort of stuff is EXTREMELY hard to do in April. But anyway, I don't even think it's realistic that he will even GO after him. So it doesn't matter either way. .

    We have riff raff like Bynum on the 40 man, so we can afford to do so. http://www.rhps.org/archive/pictures/riff_raff/riff_raff.0006.jpg Bynum?

    Sadly, this thread was made during happier days (before the Dlee injury), and this thread was about replacing Pagan. It had nothing to do with replacing Dlee. :cry:

    I don't see how that's any better than Walker at 1b and Hairston at 2b. I think they can provide much better defense than Restovich. But, oh well. . .

    I look foward to. . Pierre Walker Lee Ramirez Barret Jones Murton Cedeno batting. Because I feel like they can get a hit any time they come up. The only people I don't look foward to watching bat are. . Perez Bynum Blanco Picther (cept Maddux and Zambrono) ::yeah I realized I mispelled it again. But I'm gonna leave it at that.

    Note the question mark. I only brought this up because several posters on the cubs board have mentioned it. One poster remarked Restovich wasn't in the line-up in the AAA game. So take this as a rumor for now. But there seem to be some evidence that leads to Restovich being called up. .

    I'm not going into this next series with lower expectations, per say. Just not as excited about watching cubs baseball as I would have been if Lee was healthy. Wouldn't it be great to see everyone step up and sweep the cards after this demoralizing injury. Williams needs to pitch like he is on a mission. Let's go cubs!!
  9. A New Era
    he'll be back by summer. Yeah give up if you want. But I'm still gonna be watching this team rooting for them all the way! Common guys, everybody just needs to step up! Let's just see how they play the games the next few weeks.

    You know, I like that idea. I'm glad you like the idea. So who do you think would be better at 1st? Murton or Jones? Funny the score analyst is talking about Murton at 1st and calling Pie up also. :lol: I hope they do that over putting Mabry at 1st or Walker at 1st and Hairston at 2nd.
  11. A New Era
    If Lee is hurt for 2 months, then SOMETHING has to be done. Whether it's put Jones or Murton at 1st, and call up Pie. Or make trade for somebody big who could provide good offense at 1st, something needs to be done.

    huh? :-k
  13. A New Era
    Is Spoge Bob Novoa or Ohman? I would assume he means "Sponge Bob" Howry. When the hell did this start? LOL! Why are we calling him sponge bob? :lol:

    nickname: Please please pleeeeeeease double play Aardsma, PLEEEASEE!!
  17. A New Era
    Ok I realize he is my avatar, but TAKE HIM OUT NOW dusty! Put Howry or Eyre in to bail out this kid. ::sigh::. .
  18. A New Era
    I just realized Aardsma is bald. You never really picture their hair under those mugshots with their hats on. But I didn't expect that when he took his hat off he would be bald!! :shock: :lol:

    Dude, you seriously only use 3 squares? I yank that **** out and use like 50 squares for extra finger protection room. I ain't getting any of that crap on my fingers!!

    How bout just "We are not awesome". . :lol:

    I'm in chicago. Ron is talking to Jones about adjusting to the NL. Jones is happy with how he has hit the ball. Said some of them could have been singles. I don't disagree with him. He's worked the count, and hit some balls hard. .

    You rushed it a little too much this time. It lost a little of it's presense. When you post it 3, 4, 5 post down into the topic, after a few responses, it seems to have a little more emmotional effect. . I get that feeling too, sometimes I have to get it in when I can to make sure I remember though. We need more winning to work on the timing. I dunno. I kind of like it batting in the 2-hole. Walker style. Of course, I'd also like a thread exclusively of TT writing that. i have no idea why. I think he did that once. I think you're onto something here. TT, when we win a particularly grueling battle. Whether it's a great comback, or a dominant pitching or offensive performance. You should create a thread in the general forum.

I get that feeling too, sometimes I have to get it in when I can to make sure I remember though. We need more winning to work on the timing. yeah that's true. I find it has more effect particularly after we have lost a heartbreaking game or have had serious underacheiving in our offense or pitching in the previous game. And then proceed to win the next game. The gamethread after THAT, is when it's felt the most. 8)
