    I love how it doesn't even really matter They both have their share of walks though.
  2. BigSlick
    He stopped taking his meds for concussion symptoms after he got released. Said it really helped him out. Hahahah really? Never would have guessed that
  3. BigSlick
    I agree man, I thought he was completely tapped out. The scouts must have seen something we missed, they did say they changed his stance back to the wider one right?
  4. BigSlick
    Did soriano get home run envy when he saw Edmonds home run and just couldn't help himself from swinging at complete crap?
  5. BigSlick
    I love how Edmonds is making up for lost time in terms of home runs, he hasn't played much recently so he has to smack some homers today He's still a fairly strong possibility for 20 home runs in a Cubs uniform, crazy.

    I've never seen so much instant gratification on a terrible swing call I'm still very unhappy with this ump
  7. BigSlick
    GOD I HATE THIS UMP WHAT IS HE DOING
  8. BigSlick
    hahaha a granny would be beautiful, I don't see it happening though

    can they throw dave bush out? 2 HBPs now screw this guy
  10. BigSlick
    :?: I don't get it...he walked. made the comment on a terrible swing and miss
  11. BigSlick
    Ramirez still doesn't have a clue in his at bats does he have an eye problem or something?
  12. BigSlick
    I'm going to whine a little bit, I feel like they are giving Bush a better zone than Harden
  13. BigSlick
    still not super confident in this game, but thank god the Brewers have done us some favors in terms of STUPID their lineup is constructed
  14. BigSlick
    I don't even care about the home run anymore, that left a horribly sick taste in my mouth.
  15. BigSlick
    WHAT HAPPENED I'M VERY ANGRY ABOUT THIS
  16. BigSlick
    Something about this game feels weird to me. We're putting up some ass at bats against a terrible pitcher, we need to settle down and take some pitches. Harden is throwing well but not his best. Ok Edmonds just hit a home run I'm happy.
  17. BigSlick
    how many times have the cubs tried to go for 21 games over? I think this is number 6
  18. BigSlick
    No, he is. He got Carlos Gomez and peanuts for Johan Santana, and Gomez isn't even that good. I'd be surprised if Gomez ever became a >.800 OPS guy, although he does have great defense and pretty good speed. (But he's not that good of a basestealer) Imagine how good the Twins would be with both Liriano and Santana? They'd probably lead the Central by 8 games.

    Nthing the better shape thing. I wouldn't have said Dempster was fat before, but he looks like he's lost about 20 pounds from last year. Same thing with Ramirez, he also looks like he's slimmed down and added some muscle.
  20. BigSlick
    Though this probably wasn't in line with their actual thinking, its smart of them to actually add talent to a team that is somewhat in lack of it. (at least offensively) Now they are truly a force to be reckoned with. There was a reason why Oakland's playoff chances were up there for a few months (though they have completely gone away now).
  21. BigSlick
    He probably didn't even start switch hitting because he felt some sort of natural tendency to, he probably just figured it would annoy opposing pitchers and just generally be more fun. I don't remember Z pitching in 02, but I remember him being one of my favorite parts of the 03 season, cemented by that game-tying HR late in the game in Houston. On the good or the crappy teams since, he has consistently been the best part of it all. He even made 06 somewhat enjoyable because every other start of his seemed to be him toying with a no-hitter
  22. BigSlick
    I'd love if we pound him like we pounded Sheets, except earlier in the game so its not in doubt as long. Serve up 8 or 9 runs, plz.
  23. BigSlick
    Good. Stay down as long as possible. It'll be awesome if the Cardinals are something ridiculous like 8 games out by the end of August. I don't want to hear about them again this season.
  24. BigSlick
    As minute a chance it would be for them to lose the division, it would be hilarious to see them fall to the Twins. The Twins are incredibly mediocre, yet overplaying their own projected Win/Loss greatly. Imagine how good they'd actually be if they kept Santana and upgraded Liriano to the majors?
  25. BigSlick
    Well, he did figure out how to strike people out in the past month or so. That said, the KRod/Joba comparisons are extremely premature. I just hope this doesn't set up another CPatt type of thing. All these high hopes and he turns out to be average and ends up being another whipping boy because he isn't a lights out reliever. I'm going to let you in on a secret Corey Patterson is way worse than average
