    Or does it seem like the Chicago sportswriters have been waiting for any reason whatsoever to start writing all this negative crap about the team? It's really starting to piss me off.

    Theriot deserved to be ripped for that crap. You can't waste that much time with a rag arm and a fast runner.

    No '69 type collapse is coming. We might not win the division, but it would be damn near impossible not to at least win the Wild Card.

    Still optimistic at this point. Ask me again in a week.

    I think it has to do more with playoff roster spots.

    I bet even Santo doesn't hate the Mets today. :good:

    How did Lee look silly tonight? He was 2-5 with a walk and the double play was just bad luck. He hammered that ball. He should have been trying to get it in the air, but still, it's not like he reached out and guided it weakly to the shortstop like he usually does. Oh, and they scored 4 runs after Zambrano left the game. The thing is that Lee has been hitting ground balls at people for a long time already. His inability to drive the ball on a consistent basis is a reason for his movement out of the 3 hole. That spot in the lineup, as shown yesterday is one where you are expected to drive the ball or hit it in the air at times and with his inability to do so anymore, Lee should not be moved somewhere else in the lineup. He simply is not the run producer that he once was. Derosa and Soto have driven in more runs from spots in the lineup that are less conducive to collecting RBI. Part of the reason for Aramis' tear this year has been Lee missing out on RBI as well. Agree. And that was not a good pitch that he swung at. There was a struggling pitcher on the mound and the count was 2-1, IIRC. The pitch was way inside. He should be looking for a pitch he can put in the air to bring in the go ahead run. Terrible at bat and this is happening way too often with DLee this season. I don't want him benched, just moved down in the order.

    DAMNIT! Should have won this one. I hate the [expletive] Astros. :banghead:

    The Mets have tied it up.

    Is this some sort of reverse psychology? I'm trying. Try harder next time.

    He's batting 1.000 with the pants rolled down this year. How can you boo that? IIRC he didn't go with the high socks until the birth of his child. He's batting 1.000 since the birth of his child with the pants rolled down this year. How can you boo that?

    I thought he was great, but I could have used subtitles for the interview portion.

    They are but then they are managed by Dusty Lite. Yost and the Brewers know that neither Sabathia nor Sheets will be back next year with both being free agents. What do they care if they ruin their arms?

    If you can look past Paul Lukas bitching his glasses off about seeing the Nike logo on something or teams with teal or purple as a color (not always an easy task, granted), it's often an excellent daily read for people who take note of and interest in the uniform side of the sports we watch. I read it daily. But is there really enough new material to warrant a daily blog on uniforms? Just how in depth does this guy go?
  20. Old Style
    It looked like he got the bag with his toes coming down. Did he have the ball in his glove at that point?
  21. Old Style
    Did anyone else think Soto was safe at 2nd on that force place? I'm not sure Rollins ever touched the bag. DAMNIT MARSHALL! :banghead:
  22. Old Style
    You read a blog about uniform changes every day?????
  23. Old Style
    At least we didn't strand multiple runners in scoring position that inning.
  24. Old Style
    These idiot announcers are only marginally better than Buck/McCarver.

    Since Lilly last started, huh?
