  1. Nice baserunning! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  2. Are you sure you really want to go that far out on a limb to make that bold prediction? That's a gutsy statement, my friend.
  3. Out of the 4 that picked the Cards to win the division, 2 had them losing in the WS and 1 had them winning it all. WTF? :-k
  4. I never gave them a 2nd thought until I moved to Texas. I almost want to embarrass them more than the Cards now.
  5. Assume Harden goes down for a significant amount of time and we are forced to add Shark to the rotation. Name one team in the Central that will have a better rotation than the Cubs. Also, name one Central team with a better starting lineup than the Cubs. Go ahead. I'll be waiting patiently for your reply. Using PECOTA, if we give Harden's 155 innings to Shark, the Cubs starting rotation (Z, Lilly, Dempster, Shark, and Marshall) is projected to have a composite ERA of 4.76 over 845 innings, while the Brewers starting rotation (Gallardo, Suppan, Bush, Parra, Looper) is projected to have composite ERA of 4.45 over 800 innings. So, according to PECOTA, the Brewers would have a better rotation. Clearly, there is no NL Central team with a better lineup than the Cubs, but that wasn't the argument. The fact is that inserting Shark instead of Harden gives back every bit of advantage the Cubs have in the rotation and, according to PECOTA, gives the Brewers the better rotation. I'll be waiting patiently for your patronizing reply. So the Brewers rotation would be PROJECTED to have a better ERA by 0.31. Excellent argument. I sit corrected. WE ARE DOOMED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  7. Ugh don't remind me. Getting rid of DeRosa was dumb. Terrible move. I still don't understand what Hendry was thinking.
  8. Assume Harden goes down for a significant amount of time and we are forced to add Shark to the rotation. Name one team in the Central that will have a better rotation than the Cubs.

  9. About Harden being hurt or the Cubs having enough to win the NL Central without Harden? Winning the Central without Harden. Actually, winning anything before the first pitch is even thrown. All he said is that the cubs have enough to win the central without harden, he didn't say that they would. Well then what he said was meaningless. The Cards have enough to win the Central too, provided things go their way. And I have a chance to bang Marisa Miller, provided things go my way.
  10. If Z wants to play in a new stadium, then he should ask to be traded.
  11. :banghead: Nice planning by MLB. I guess I'll have to go split screen from the start of the basketball game to the end of the Cubs game.
  12. Greg Olsen is about to fulfill a whole lot more of his potential. Exactly what I was thinking.
  13. OH HAPPY DAY! :yahoo:
  14. Hearing that the Rangers may release Frank Catalanatto.
  15. Is some moron really questioning his choice in t-shirts? Jeebus Christ, get a friggin' life.
  16. that may be a good sign if you remember the celtics of the 80's were the ugliest group of players ever assembled, but yet one a title They didn't two a title?
  17. Marmol must be broken again. Someone get a roll of duct tape and some Super Glue.
  18. As opposed to many other players who deny their selfishness and douchebagginess.
  19. The one flaw in that theory is that Mia Hamm is not good looking.
  20. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/orl-curt-schilling-play-cubs-022809,0,6172008.story Hmmmmmmmmmmm
  21. If Fuku can start hitting like everyone expected before the start of last season, I would like this lineup.
  22. I was going to question the use of the term "play" instead of "bat" or "hit".
  23. Any bets as to who will be the 2010 player that we get all jacked up about adding but never actually seal the deal? Roberts ---> Peavy ---> ?????
