    Damn, was hoping that would get down in fair territory for Aramis.
  2. Old Style
    Well that was an un-pretty first inning. I hate this Cardinals-Brewers series. One of you baseball geniuses need to figure out a way that both teams can lose.
  3. Old Style
    Maybe if we had a new owner who could approve additonal payroll...

    I would wager that Z gets the Sunday night start.
  5. Old Style
    Why in the world would the Cubs have Zambrano start on short rest? Why not just pitch Hart tonight and Z tomorrow? Maybe they cant get Hart there tonight? I dont know Whoever starts tonight will also start again on Sunday against the Cards. This may be another reason Z starts tonight.

    In the olden days, hitting the ball over the fence resulted in an out. I would much rather have a walk than an out.

    Is the Depmster/dumpster pic not used anymore?

    CUBS WIN! EVERYBODY SING! :clapping: :yahoo:

    Ugh, McLouth. Let's end it NOW. No more ATL batters after this guy.

    Soriano makes me more nervous than Gregg does.

    I don't think I'd want to have contacts if I was playing sports at this level. Are you serious? Players in contact sports (no pun intended) wear them all the time. He's a damn relief pitcher, not a middle LB.
  12. Old Style
    So does Gregg not believe in contacts or does he like looking like a chop?
  13. Old Style
    If that's the case, there's not much of a competition right now. It's Fox by a landslide.
  14. Old Style
    Gregg will give up at least 1 run.
  15. Old Style
    Swing the soapdropping bat.
  16. Old Style
    OK, bullpen. Don't blow it.

    The bankruptcy court is not going to hold up the sale. That's $900 million that could be used to pay the Tribune's creditors and that's more than a fair price as far as the Tribune Co is concerned. Approval of the sale is just a formality.
  18. Old Style
    See Soriano, Alfonso I figured that would be the response, but he seems to K more. Maybe that's just my warped perception of reality.

    On Bradley: Has anyone ever seen such a supposedly great hitter with so many weak IF groundouts?
  20. Old Style
    Wasn't Ricketts hand picked by Selig? There's no way he doesn't get approved. As long as fan boy Ricketts says OK, Hendry sould be able to add some payroll now.

    If it weren't for the DH on Sunday, then I would be surprised if they didn't go with 11 pitchers. But because of that, I'm afraid they will stick with 12. We do have an off day on Thursday, though.
  22. Old Style
    They could give up that silly notion and just send Hart and Shark down. That would be a possibility too. I was really thinking more of the idea of cutting back to 11 pitchers than which pitcher would go down.That is what I was guessing, but I think someone said that Patton should be right near (or maybe at) the 90 days of service he needs to have on the major league roster to satisfy the Rule 5 requirements. Meaning he could go on the DL clearing a roster spot.
  23. Old Style
    That looks good to me.
  24. Old Style
    I know it hasn't been officially announced yet, but does anyone want to speculate as to who the Cubs might throw for the DH on Sunday? I am making the trip up north from Texas and will be in the bleachers for both games. If they follow the normal rotation, it looks like it would be Wells and Dempster. But with the day off on Thursday and the AS break coming right after, any chance they throw Z on short rest?
  25. Old Style
    DLee is really the one who deserves to go, but there are too many good first basemen in the NL for that to happen.
