I just bought it last night. I hope it's the Cubs announcers tonight! I could be wrong, but I don't ever recall mlb.tv broadcasting a visitor's broadcast if the home team is able to broadcast it. Therefore, you should get the CSN feed for the next two nights. could be wrong though. GO CUBS!

sorry, i get shots in on duke and unc fans whenever possible, regardless of the situation. GO CUBS!

Ok, seriously. If I never have to look at that picture during the Duke OT loss to Maryland in the 2004 ACC tournament finals, I would be a very happy man. Wow, way to bring back such painful memories. how's last year's acc tourney loss feel? go pack! http://farm1.static.flickr.com/149/415332602_98317f5864_o.jpg ncsu returns to glory this winter.... jimmy v...rest in peace

You can't possibly be serious. He wasn't hitting for contact or power and wasn't getting on base much. His approach at the plate at times bordered on masochistic. He looked washed up to everyone. Hendry took a flier on the guy hoping a change of scenery or for that matter was better than what he was putting up in Oakland. Hendry gambled right only after he gambled wrong. And by the way, it's not scouts vs. 'sabers'. The two are complimentary, not mutually exclusive. I guess I'm mixed up then. I thought Gary Hughes was a scout. I also thought that Hendry pursued this deal after Hughes recommended Kendall, after Hughes actually watched Kendall play, in person, on a baseball field, several times. So you tell me -- who was it that Kendall looked washed up to. Because it wasn't the scout that was sent to evaluate him. As best I can tell, that leaves the sabermetric guys that glean their knowledge predominantly from stats and websites, and form their judgements based on the numbers their computers spit out at them. as bad as kendall was in Oakland, wasn't he even worse to begin the year? Wasn't he hitting like .295 in June for Oakland when he was traded? I could be off base, but I feel pretty sure I heard that correctly. That would support at least some of the speculation that he would/has done better than his previous numbers this year indicated.

I just wish somebody would invent the game "cubs win", it would make my life a hell of a lot easier.

That you, Lloyd? some young philly broke my heart...oh wait that was the cubs ](*,)

what's the link? I tried to find it, but didn't want to keep searching the pages? Is there a search function, or is that a feature of premium?

maybe they haven't heard, but we already got craig monroe. yes, THE craig monroe

jones appears to be coming back down to earth, and fast. please move kendall to the two hole and jones to the 7th spot(or even a day off to get Pie a few AB's). I'd like... Theriot Kendall Lee Ramirez DeRosa Murton (probably Floyd) Jones Fontenot Marshall

I openly greeted this trade once it happened. I didn't think he had fallen off so much so quickly. I also stated he could put up a very good OBP since his second half OBP was .400 last year. I was about to give up on him after his 1-15 start though.

accuweather.com is predicting clouds, but no rain from 1-5, might be able to get this one in after all. http://www.accuweather.com/forecast-hourly.asp?partner=accuweather&traveler=1&zipcode=60601&metric=0

gillette's debuting their new razor commercial later on tonight... http://greatinventions.tv/products/images/razor.jpg

let me see if i can get gammons on the horn, hang on.

those commercials appeal to the inner-cowboy in us all...

Tony La Russa does NOT look cool in any way john.

I wouldn't know. I hate football. I used to like it before it was crammed down our throats. 40 years ago? Nah this is the first year I really seemed to notice it never left sportscenter. Between TO and Michael Vick and Pacman Jones and Tank Johnson. Just go away. NFL Live is on all year, is Baseball Tonight? i see your point, but nfl gets higher ratings by any pro sport and its not even close. espn or whoever else is going to show whatever it is that the people want to see and whatever makes them the most money. they are a business just like any other.

Zambrano retires the first four batters.......pitch count=30 :x

Nice AB by Riot! I love the patience out of the one spot!

that slider looks sickening tonight! PLEASE let it stay dry in chicago!

MUCH quicker at bat! good job Z!

Oh, give him a break. He might be pretty bad at color, but this is a national TV broadcast, so it's not just for diehard fans. a baseball fan of ANY magnitude would know about the fight that happened over two and a half months ago.

when is the koyie hill project going to be over?

did you guys know that big z and mike barrett got into a fight on june 1st? joe morgan just brought it to my attention!

game starting on time 8-)

Could've gone to pretty much any RH hitter and left Griffey in the OF next inning. We've gotta realize that this isn't a must win for the Reds where all the stops are gonna be pulled out. I was personally kinda surprised they hit Valentin for Jorgensen even. the reds(edit) haven't had a "must win" in years. they are still obligated to make the moves necessary to try to win everyday. i suppose they thought their best option was hamilton and i disagreed. They also have to do what's best for their organization, and allowing Hamilton to see big leauge lefty pitching is part of that. Fred McGriff '02 was a better hitter than Hee Seop Choi '02, but it didn't mean Fred McGriff should've been starting all those games down the stretch. Yep. The Reds aren't obligated to do anything other then what is best for the Reds. point taken, IMO against a submarine style LHP, I would have pinch hit in that big situation. agree to disagree i guess. i did forget 2006, you guys were pretty average and I completely forgot about them. I stand corrected.
