  1. how can someone so fast have only a 40% success rate at stolen bases?
  2. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2463336 Milledge is taking the place of Xavier Nady who went on the DL after an emergency appendectomy. Milledge is 21, he can hit, he can run, he can walk, he can get drafted after Ryan Harvey and make the Cubs look like fools and he has awesome, awesome dreadlocks. Between Milledge, Wright and Pedro, I might actually start liking the Mets. http://media.scout.com/Media/Image/26/267704.jpg
  3. some good baseball in oklahoma this year, both osu and ou got 1 seeds, and oru got a 3.
  4. nope, i didnt, there were none.
  5. i must have missed all the threads clamoring for the return on kyle farnsworth
  6. AVG with men on first and second and two outs in the seventh inning on a 2-1 count against a lefty throwing sliders at night?
  7. I referred to him as Neifi Cedeno a few days ago. Cubs seem to be high on him. Probably like his Neifiesque tendencies. With the way Cedeno was hyped, I thought he'd have a little more plate discipline. Who was hyping Cedeno? He's never been able to take a walk. So he is bascially Neifi with more errors? :roll: He's a younger, cheaper, more likely to improve version of Neifi, if that's what you mean. I don't mean to be so pessimistic about Cedeno, he may turn out to be a better player than Neifi. You bring up a good point that Cedeno is cheaper, and he is younger, but so far he has been part of the problem with the Cubs offense and has offered little to no offensive advantage over a guy that has taken the brunt of alot of criticism. Neifi .195/.220/.241 Cedeno .279/.302/.366 Cedeno has been bad, but he's been better than the alternative.

  10. if you give any manager good players, he's going to look good.
  11. 260. dmgoforth Hey, at least they can catch the ball 159
  12. isnt ucla in california? raisin wins
  13. NO, they don't November 25, 2003: Derrek Lee traded by the Florida Marlins to the Chicago Cubs for Hee Seop Choi and Mike Nannini (minors). Sure, we got them once. They've gotten us twice. Yes, Florida owes us one. Let's start with that kid they have at 3B. Awww, cmon you aren't still sore about 6 finger and Clement for Willis, Tavarez, Ryan Jorgeson & Jose Cueto. Dontrelle was a late round pick, 8th round of the 2000 draft (223rd overall) at the time of the trade he had never pitched above High Class A and in the FSL which is a pitcher's league. thanx for the new info
  14. This Brandon Wood? .244/.342/.470? 55 SO in 168 AB, he's got a lot to work on for a guy that might not stick at SS.
  15. i remember the good old days when the white sox obsessed about us
  16. Albert Pujols 2006 - .323/.449/.804/1.253 23 HR 57 RBI 37 BB 12 SO Age: 26 Miguel Cabrera 2006 - .335/.432/.599/1.031 8 HR 39 RBI 27 BB 30 SO Age: 23 Now, obviously, his numbers are not Albert Pujols numbers, exactly, but think about this. Miguel is 3 years younger. Miguel plays half his games in gigantic ballpark. He has 18 doubles, compared to Pujols who has 7. The scary thing, I think, for everyone, is that a.) Miguel is only 23, b.) he won't be a Marlin for much longer, which means that someday soon, the numbers he is putting up will actually start to matter and c.) being in a crappy lineup and getting pitched around all the time hasn't hampered him at all. He's not expading his zone, he's walking more and striking out less (68 BB 148 SO in 2004, 64 BB 125 SO last year, on pace for 97 BB 108 SO this year), and still hitting the ball hard when he gets a chance. Now, check this out. Miguel Cabrera's 2006 season, projected 335/.432/.599/1.031 29 HR 140 RBI 97 BB 108 SO (just for fun, 18 SB) Albert Pujols 2003 season, 23 years old. .359/.439/.667/1.106 43 HR 124RBI 79BB 65 SO He's good. Organization changing good. Whoever gets him from the Marlins is going to be really lucky.
  17. imb

    LMAO

    It's not even June yet, there's plenty of time to reach that dream.
  18. looking goooood
  19. I really hope he has an amazing year and at some point the national media says "jim hendry, you are an outstanding moron"
  20. see; Beltre, Adrian.
  21. Yeah, I saw the same 25 bums that have sucked all year long.
  22. so, basically, you're fooling yourself. Admirable.
  23. states simply. 3-3 is a whole lot better then 0-6. I see improvement. It might be small but I see it. how about 1-3 in their last 4 games? You're picking arbitrary groups of games to make it seem like there's improvement...there's not. They're undefeated in their last 1 game. that means there's a 100% chance of them winning tonight
  24. im thinking we win one in florida and get swept in atlanta
