    Which explains Neifi's one start. Hendry has gotten off way too easily on this trading Walker business. Dusty seems like he's backed Walker every step of the way. Not really. In responding to who's the opening day 2nd baseman at the Cubs convention. Dusty Baker said "Right now. . right now it would be. . . Todd Walker. . ::claps::. . . . But alot can happen between now and spring training. . ::boos::. .

    Just dropped an insane bunt that scored cedeno and the throw to first was a little off and dropped at first (because of his speed and good bunt). .

    I'd like to start a thread one of these days this spring. What's the rules on that? Can I get in on this and spice things up a little? (have yet to read the first post, sorry will do that now). .

    he's a clubhouse cancer. he's lucky to be playing at all! :twisted: I have to eat crow so far this year because I was one of "those people" who said to trade Walker because we need better defense. Shows how much this arm-chair GM knows.... :x I went straight to page 4. Thank God when I went back and read there were no official line-ups. You guys were just speculating Dbag will take Walker out. HE BETTER FREAKIN NOT!! THIS IS HOW YOU RUIN WINNING STREAKS, BY SITTING YOUR HOT BATS!!!

    No I'm sorry that would belong to Major League Baseball for Mattel Electronics Intellivision. . RED vs BLUE. What could you want more as a child than a 10 run 9th inning comeback via the blue team??
  16. A New Era
    Did anybody have the same mood swings I did as the game went on? In the 3rd inning I just wanted them to hurry up so we'd get the win in the 6th if it rained out. In the 4th inning I just wanted them to slow down and get some runs!! :lol:
  17. A New Era
    PLEASE DON'T BLOW (the game) JW!!
  18. A New Era
    It all started when I read he was upping his workout routine. Now he is proving he's serious (and capable) of putting up a better year than last year. How much better? I can't wait to see.

    Even though the Pirates are 3-8 to start the season, they are one of the top 3 offense's statistically so far in the NL. The Cubs have to pitch well & they need Aram back in the line-up to have any chance to win this series. Expecting a sweep on the road, no matter who you play or what team you are is unrealistic. I didn't say a sweep. I said 2 out of 3. I apologize for the misunderstanding. Yes I agree we need atleast 2 out of 3. Anything less than that is unacceptable. The Cubs need to prove they can beat the Pirates, Brewers, and Reds in series matchups and they need to prove it NOW! They need to prove it to the fans, they need to prove it to St. Louis, and they need to prove it to themselves. .

    They are 5-0 when Barret kicks ASS!!. . . . . . . . oh wait. Barret kicks ASS in every game!! go Cubs!!

    gotta hang out at the gaming boards. . :lol:

    I'm thinking it has to do with rubbing of a certain part of lower anatomy in order to "relax" before he goes to the plate. :lol: haha.. fap fap fap. . . Well if it helps him hit pinch hit home runs!! :lol: I'm reminded of there's something about mary when the dude told ben stiller to fap fap before the date and he'd be more relaxed. Maybe there is something about that, it also helps you pinch hit better!! 8)

    I hope you guys are being sarcastic. I've watched that inning again, and those pitches were SO FAR out, that only Corey Patterson would swing at them!! These weren't hard pitches to take. Nor would they require a good eye. I like what I saw too. But let's not start calling them all patient hitters after that ridiculous outing by Izzy.

    I agree that Baker has a history of playing the veteran over the less experienced player at times. There is little doubt about that, but he does so because he believes, rightly or wrongly, that playing the more experienced player that day gives his team the best chance to win. However, based on the above quote, he seems convinced that playing Cedeno over his more experienced options gives this Cubs team the best chance to win. So, whereas there is evidence to suggest that Baker overvalues experience when handing out playing time, his decisions aren't based on a hatred of or bias against rookies as much as they are based on which player gives his team the best chance to win that day. And isn't that what all managers of contending teams should be basing their decisions on? While I agree he deserves credit for letting Ronny and Murton play. He's not what I'd call a good manager at putting the best team out there to win, LAST year. He's put the RIGHT line-ups in so far, this year. But I'd hardly call Corey-Neifi or Neifi-Macias as a #1,2 the "best" chance to win when you had guys like Murton, Cedeno, Walker, AND Hairston available. .

    I just thought I'd share with you what I said when Jones hit that HR. . AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHYYY ::cry cry:: HAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA YEEEESSSSSSSS!!! Haha. This is so great. Jones joining the Cubbies just when they needed him. He slumped when they were winning. Now that the O was quite, he gave them the lead! So far, everything has gone just RIGHT for the Cubbies. And Prior and Wood aren't even back yet!!
