  1. Good. I've always disliked Francoeur. He's amazingly overrated in all aspects of the game, his defense isn't great aside from his arm, his power isn't all that impressive and he has absolutely no strike zone recognition. I hate anyone that is considered a good player and still puts up an OBP below .300 EDIT: Admittedly, he isn't really a 'bad' player, and his last year wasn't that bad overall, and he's very very young and has plenty of time to change his game up. But he's absolutely not the type of player I want on my team, TAKE A BALL FOR CHRISSAKES
  2. Gosh I would love to get CC just even if its just to block the Brewers from getting him, even if he doesn't necessarily upgrade our staff that well. OH well, its a message to Hendry to shore up that farm system, if you want to make some midseason trades, you better load yourself up with a couple bullets you are willing to unload. Burnett would be nice. Bedard no thanks.
  3. The schadenfreude I felt when the ump ringed up Glaus in the 9th was possibly the best feeling the in the world
  4. I don't like how Lee is getting hot all by his lonesome other people, do stuff
  5. God forbid we should gain some ground on anyone. Not gaining ground > Losing ground I'll take that I've been satisfied with breaking even for too long now. If the Brewers land Sabathia, a 4.5 game lead on them is not going to be enough. Who cares what you are satisfied with? We're in front, we didn't even lose the series and people are bitching Jesus
  6. pixie dust doesn't work on good players, only terrible quad A players also to stay on topic edmonds rules
  7. gambler's fallacy Not really the same situation In gamblers fallacy the chance something happens is the same every time, in baseball each pitch isn't an independent event, they relate to each other as the hitter can adapt, and the more likely the pitcher will make a mistake
  8. Can't say Theriot didn't make the man work
  9. Or you could have not swung at ball four and the same thing would have happened i mean whichever
  10. Edmonds if you hit a homer here I will like you
  11. Lee triple ITs great to see good Lee back, he's been hitting a ton of line drives
  12. this is one of my favorite game thread complaints. not scoring runs = rolling over omg omg omg omg
  13. everyone sucks, cut everyone , etc.
  14. i've only been home about 10 minutes but this zone looks ridiculous to me
  15. is any game lamer than this? this is top 10 lame game this season, just rolling over like this
  16. The terrible terrible 06 Cubs were never 1-hit? Impressive
  17. Nice job offense, I guess you can only do so much with so many second basemen literring your lineup I still hate you Marquis get the out already you doofus, no 2 out runs like last week
  18. Tell me about. We are looking at the brilliant "4 second basemen" lineup. We could push maximum density with 5 DeRosa-RF Patterson-LF Cedeno-2b Theriot-SS Fontenot? -3b
  19. I'm convinced this is because my brother surprised me with an Aramis t-shirt/jersey Friday Maybe I should burn it, its done no good so far
  20. jesus And I thought Ramirez could just turn on those inside pitches and crush them
  21. During the first game of this series I watched the Sox thumping while slurping on a Portillo's milkshake which, if you've been in the Chicago area, would know is delicious.
