BJax/Upton/DeJesus would be a pretty fantastic defensive OF. WHAT ABOUT CAMPANA?!?!?!?!?!
-
We still need to make some tweaks to the roster IMO.

Hasn't Noah only missed 1 game, or do you mean Rose? Noah got hurt during Game 3. And didn't he go out with a big lead?

I was saying Boo-urns.

What I've learned over the years is that there are about 12 intelligent Cubs fans. All of them post here. The rest of the Cub loving world is populated by meatball morons.

He yelled something back that way, not sure who it was directed at. It had to have been at Heyward. Not sure what Comcast showed, but I was at a bar watching the Braves broadcast (without sound, unfortunately) but Shark had some fire in his his eyes and was looking back towards 2B where Heyward was as he was yelling. -
Not the least of which is looking like Ashton Kutcher.
-
Can you believe what that meatball is suggesting? SHEESH!
-
I thought the eye squinting was a Darwin Barney slam.
-
Does she mean actually run the offense this time?
-
Meatball

That is better than the picture, which is nice.

Yes, my life is damaged by this feeble attempt to regain his glory days. That was quite the zinger you laid on me. Regain his glory days? What the hell is wrong with you? So well played. LOL!.

Jesus Christ, maybe he just wants to pitch. Maybe someday he'll be able to do it again. It's only been 6 years. So what? Who is he hurting by trying? Himself. Over and over. Maybe his wife, if he's married.

I know he didn't make megabucks in the majors, but surely he had some endorsement deals over the years to pad that income. And I would hope that he didn't MC Hammer all of his money away. How much do you think he makes in the minors? He could coach, take a TV job on the MLB Network, write a book, become a motivational speaker, etc. All of those would pay more than what he's making now I'd imagine.
-
Besides, it's not like he's banking big bucks with these minor league deals, is he?
-
LOL. What kind of moron would think that moving on with his life means he'd have to get up at 7am to drive an hour to work to sit at a desk making $50K in some lame job like one of us? Even if he HAD to work for monetary reasons there are many things he could do to make more money doing something he theoretically would enjoy assuming his happiness extends past the mound.

I wouldn't give up right away, but after 6 years of not being able to come anywhwere close to what I once had I hope I would be able to walk away and move on to the next chapter of my life. As far as the Rickey Henderson comparison that someone else made, I thought that was sad. Does he not have a life outside of baseball? I know a very good jazz drummer (not famous, but he made money playing) who had to quit because of medical reasons. Sure he's diappointed but he's not fighting it. He's more than just a drummer and he's successful with his life after music.
-
That's my opinion on what he should do. Where did I say he shouldn't be allowed to play anymore?
-
All he's been doing for the past 6 years is rehabbing. He's not playing baseball. I missed the part where I decided what he's doing with his life. Brilliant retort, my man. Don't agree with Nuts&Gum and you're a meatball. God, I love this guy. This site would implode without his brilliance.
-
The [expletive]? Why should he? Because he can't stay healthy and keeps ending up under the knife. When is it enough? He's never going to pitch in the majors again. He has plenty of money. Go live your life, the dream is over.
-
When is he going to give up? http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/chi-excubs-pitcher-prior-signs-with-red-sox-20120502,0,3293658.story NOTE: I checked several forums before posting this and didn't see it anywhere.
