  1. at this rate, perfect won't be good enough. At least we are getting hits. Usually we go down in order. I think we got a good shot.
  2. I don't know whats more impressive, Chris Young's 26 home runs or his .288 on base percentage. You actually have to try to not reach base as much as he could with as much power as he has.
  3. That wasn't even good contact. I'm not unimpressed with how far he got it.
  4. I just...really don't know what these guys are swinging at.
  5. Fixed. pitchers being able to get a bunt down is important. And I guarantee you that you guys complain about it more than the problem is. I see no proof that our pitchers are worse than any other national league team's pitchers at laying down a bunt. Who cares about what the rest of the league is doing? I want our pitchers to be able to do something at the plate. Because you might be expecting something that is impossible? You can't expect our pitchers to lay down every bunt perfectly. There is far more important things to worry about on our team than how well our pitchers are bunting. It's impossible to lay down a bunt? In my opinion, bunting is one of the easiest aspects of the game. All it takes is a little practice. I'm not expecting every pitcher to be able to lay a perfect bunt down every time, but it seems like nearly every time we need a bunt, they foul the first two off and K. It's not an unimportant aspect of the game, and you thinking so is pretty ridiculous. I just don't think we are any better or worse than the league average.
  6. Derrek Lee is pissing the crap out of me with his constant attempts at hitting into double plays.

  8. We routinely waste bases loaded no outs. Whats the surprise with this one?

  10. Remember that one play where Murton got gunned down? So yes, and then he wont score.
  11. Jones politely grounds out to the first basemen. Pretty much the most we could hope for.
  12. Jock just completed one of the ugliest swings on a ball that was closer to missouri than the strike zone.
  13. I promised I wouldn't whine about it. But it is frustrating. I just wish we could do that more. At least the Brewers are down 5-0, and I'm confident they don't have as good a shot in coming back in this one. :D
  14. I cannot believe that St. Louis is back in this game. I am so pissed.
  15. Face it guys, we aren't going to get to this guy. We are just going to hope that they put in their bullpen early, and its not a bad bullpen either.
  16. Effin' Cardinals. How do they do that.
  17. Despite Kendall grounding out, I'm happy where he is in the batting order.
  18. This is pretty incredible: CUBS are 14-12 when Lilly starts Yet his record is 13-6.
  19. The saddest thing about this stat is that we LOST 2 games when allowing 3 hits or less.
  20. You're still wrong.
  21. Jock is in the two hole, playing right. This is dumb, can we stop doing this, please, Piniella? Whats wrong with Derosa in the two hole? Too competent?
  22. What are you even implying?
