Juan Pierre extension watch
Banedon replied to Lefty's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
Nevin can play CF.... :D -
I'm not complaining that Dempster is still closer...he should be. But the fact that Dusty realizes that Dempster is underused, and yet still allowed it to happen infuriates me.

No offense to MustangMike at all, but MODS, can we be consistent here. We couldn't use Sam ME, we couldn't use K and Patt, can we not allow posters to use Dumpster? If the previous two were juvenile, so is Dumpster. As I think goony said pretty well, it wasn't so much about the names themselves, as it was the sheer frequency of use. If "Dumpster" becomes a problem, we'll address it. Also, in the future, it's probably best to PM a mod with these type of concerns, as it can be missed in the middle of a thread.

No offense Len, but unless big Z has the power to fire Baker and Hendry, I don't hold out hope for a rescue.... :P

Ouch....burrrrn..

Your win against the Sox help me tie him for first place with SoCal Cubs. I'm about to make my playoff run... Hey, the Marlins and Astros have done it!!
-
I'm not sure I could have respect for Murton's defense in left even if Nevin sits down indian style and soils himself before each batter-the difference between horrific and bad isn't a big deal to me. Well at least you aren't overstating it... 8-[

Didn't the Cards accuse the Cubs of stealing signs at one point? I know we had a running joke about TLR and holograms at one point.... (Working through the weekend has warped my fragile little mind)
-
A couple of wins for me this week after a 7 game slide... :P
-
Smacks of intelligence to me.
-
Personally, I really like Len and Bob. But it may be hard to enjoy them because of the product on the field. I'd like to see them get a chance to announce when the Cubs are going good.
-
This is a fantastic idea, just for the thought of Jim in a uniform....
-
Heya Len! Thanks for stopping by! Is Bob getting that managing bug yet? *hint hint*
-
Why do you hate him?
-
I don't know if this has been posted elsewhere, and I don't know even when it happened, but this is a pretty cool video.... Miguel Cabrera getting IBB'd....
-
Rick Morrisey has a pretty good articleabout why soccer doesn't really appeal to american males generally. Of course a lot of it is probably hyperbole, but there's some truth there.

White Sox brass not amused by Guillen's antics
Banedon replied to CubsBullsBears's topic in General Baseball Talk
ummmm...there's a whole thread where you essentially say that you don't want any trades with the White Sox, but now you're willing to hire their overrated controversial manager? -
ESPN has an article about Arena and whether or not he'll coach another World Cup team. Sounds like he may not want to. They speculate that the Germany head coach may be a leading replacement candidate. Found this at the end...I don't know much about soccer, but I know what I've read here about Donovan.

Jacque to the Yanks ?
Banedon replied to Larry Horse's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
Roast, You answered your own question. In Jim Hendry's mind, paying a 31 year old, left-handed hitting, toolsy player with 30 hr potential $11.67M over 2007 and 2008 is just not terrible. Well, my question is, where does this "30 HR potential" come from. The most he has ever hit in one season is 27 (2002) which was coincidentally his best overall year of his career. In fact; one could probably say it was the exception to the rest of his career. Outside that season his highest HR total is 23. And its sad that Hendry doesnt realize that. Well, we are halfway through the season and Jock strap has 13 Hr's. I don't think 30 for the year is outta the question at all. His career high is 27...you think he's having a career year? Or possibly going through a good stretch? -
-
Whoa whoa whoa...it's only happened over the last three years, and you have previously told me that three years isn't enough to trend.... :D At like .4, not 1! Either it's enough to trend, or it's not. You can't say that the significance of the trend is only based on the results.
-
You're not the only one that thinks he's an idiot. Wynalda is laying into Arena pretty good. What a terrible showing. I don't know anything about soccer strategy, but I don't know how anybody can be inspired by that guy. His body language is awful during the game and he just mopes around like he's waiting for his wife to finish trying on outfits. As a fellow non-soccer person, I think that's an excellent description.

You would think "good kicker" would top the list of requirements in a soccer player.

US doesn't deserve to win.
