  1. What stat do you want? 7th in the NL in slugging among 1B, 16th in the NL in OBP, 8th in OPS, 6th in HRs, 8th in batting average, 11th in walks, 7th in K's. 8th in RARP, 7th in VORP, 6th in EQR, 9th in Win Shares. He does lead the NL in DPs, though. And ABs. Nobody's hating on players. Some of us are just being realistic, and some of us are spouting nonsense to make themselves feel better about a baseless opinion. Derrek Lee has no business being an all-star this year based on numbers. He isn't having a bad year. That is all I am saying, people try to make it seem Derrek has just been terrible this year. I don't think he should be an all-star, but you are crazy if you don't think he will be considered. It seems like almost every single thread on here is some thread bashing a player. Lee had a great April, struggled in May. I am pretty sure it will even out as the year goes on. by regular 1B's he isn't having too bad of a year but for his standards he's been bad. His defense and bat have slipped. The worst to me is his .337 OBP. He's not walking and that was what he used to do best. I love but can look and see he's having a down year so far. I'm not bashing him and still support him all the way but he simply hasn't been what we expect or what he expects this year. I agree with this guy.
  2. http://proxy.espn.go.com/chat/sportsnation/polling?event_id=3513 What the hell is up with question #9?
  3. It depends what the deal is. Of course you need to be willing to trade some youngsters for players that can help you now, but you have to be smart about it.
  4. So the Sausage King of Chicago wants to move DeRo to LF permanently while Soriano is out?
  5. I sure hope this isn't the start of a bad string of luck. I'm all for a Hoffpauir-Murton platoon in LF. At least give them a shot.
  6. I love that song. Mainly because it means that the Cubs just won, but I had it on a some Cubs cassette when I was a kid in 1984. Brings back some good memories for me. :yahoo: Its not like the song is on my ipod. i just like hearing for obvious reasons Exactly.
  7. Let's hope we finish as strong as we did last year.

  9. Should we offer Rich Hill for Willis? :rotfl:
  10. Neither of these guys are even on the roster right now, correct?
  11. CF platoon with Reed Johnson? Or maybe RF and slide Fuku over to CF? I don't know. Just spitballing here.
  12. I'm sure I'll probably get hammered for even suggesting this and it's probably already been discussed here, but would you be interested in seeing what the Reds would take for Griffey right now? He's got his 600, so I assume they will deal him before too long. What would you trade for him? Even if he's not an everyday player, he'd potentially add a nice left handed power stick to the lineup for the stretch run. OK, bash away.
  13. Marquis didn't suck tonight! :clapping:
  14. Where is Syd Finch these days? :lol:
  15. Andrew Jackson would have homered there and then had sex with Brad Penny's wife.
  16. But what are your thoughts on Teddy Roosevelt?
  17. No way, dude, he is a hall of famer. There's obviously not an IQ test to get in the HoF. And nice hustle there, gimp leg.
  18. Is this a game thread or a Presidential History thread?
  19. Whether he's wearing a Marlins uniform, a Cubs uniform, or a Dodgers uniform, Juan Pierre always seems to hurt us.
  20. Exactly. Texas A&M just lost to Rice 9-7 in the Super Regionals and the Cubs have given this one away. What a crappy baseball afternoon for me. ](*,)
