  1. Pat and Ron said that the second one SHOULD have been scored a passed ball, but that the official score for both of them is WP as of now. NO EXCUSE FOR THAT CRAP... COME ON KENDALL!!!
  2. Lilly has been great. The term "ace" is meaningless. The term "stopper" is more aptly applied.
  3. Huh? http://www.dailyherald.com/story/?id=34998
  4. Well I tend to think I'm more harsh on the cubs the most cub fans. With that said. The pitching really stands out for me. Z and sheets are a push but sheets is one of the best pitchers healthy in MLB. Lily is much better than suppan. Hill is much better than everyone but the two aces. Parra and gallardo are great prospects but marshall and Gallagher are right there with them. The bullpen is a blowout with marmol dempster howry. I don't think there is a gap at ss cf and rf talent wise. They win at c right now but in three years maybe not. Fielder is amazing. Hart is outstanding. Braun is having a legendary year. But 6 years ago there was a 23 year old 3b for the pirates that had 35 homeruns 110 plus rbis and a fielding percentage of 940. He now plays for the cubs and has developed into one of the best 3b in MLB. Ram even in his worst year defensively never dipped under 920 in fielding percentage. Braun has been equally as bad defensively as he has been great offensively. When I first read the question I said brewers hands down but then I actually started looking at it. Offensively the brewers best players are at the same position as the cubs. If we look five years down the road braun fielder and hart will be in their prime but soriano lee and ram will be old and past their prime. That's where the brewers win. However the gap is not wide talent wise like I thought.
  5. Since I correctly guessed the lineup yesterday. Ill try it for today. Soriano Theriot Lee Ramirez Floyd De Rosa Jones Kendall Marquis Not the lineup I want but I am guessing the status quo here. Or he could do the fast lineup he was talking about Soriano Lf Theriot SS Lee 1b Ramirez 3b Jones Rf Kendall c Fontenot 2b Pie Cf Marquis p
  6. I wanted him badly(yikes!!) as well, but it looked like he wasnt interested in signing anywhere but on the west coast if I remember correctly.
  7. I'm a Cubs fan (not drinking Brewer Kool Aid) and I beg to differ. Whatever talent drop there is in the position players, is more than made up by the Cubs in the pitching staff. The Cubs pitching staff is better now, more talented now, and in 3 years will be better and more talented.

That might explain the similarity in batting lines. However, the first two lines, 2out risp & close games are lower than his overall average. so think what you will.
  9. He isnt average defensively. His fielding percentage and range factor is in the top 10.
  10. I hate Hendry fat jokes, but I laughed at this. I do too, but I couldn't resist popcorn and beer is good stuff
  11. So I was right on... pretty happy about that. Sorry I just got home, so I just wanted to say this. Good game so far, but we are still not hitting with runners on base, and boy oh boy soto is by far the best catcher on this team. And I am very pro Kendall.
  12. My Lineup, considering Theriot should be resting sometime soon. 1. Soriano LF 2. De Rosa 2b 3. Lee 1b 4. Ramirez 3b 5. Murton RF 6. Monroe CF 7. Soto C 8. Cedeno SS 9. Hill P
  13. http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/recap?gid=270904116 they already have the recap written
  14. good night everyone, tomorrow, the hit parade goes nationally televised.
  15. for all the soriano isnt worth the money, which he isnt, he sure is awesome to have on the team
  16. NO CLASS i wish ohman would contract entitilitis
  17. http://www.veryfunnycats.info/wp-content/uploads/2007/02/funny-cat-engineer.jpg
  18. not so much broxton, but if this team sees saito we should forfeit.
