Lou: There's "no reason" Z shouldn't be an All-Sta
seanimal replied to inari's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
So, he's battled back to slightly above average. Very good work considering how horrid he was in April & May, but still not all-star calibre, IMO. Yeah, I think Lou's just wrong here. There are definitely reasons why Z shouldn't be an all-star. FWIW, I wasn't expecting that stat to prove that he should be in the All-Star game. Quite the opposite. -
This has all the makings of being really huge and awesome, which leads me to believe that it's going to totally suck. I hope not though. Hill, FTW.

FWIW, Carlos Zambrano had a 103 ERA+ coming into his most recent game. -
This one really surprised me, I thought I was voting for the underdog.

Shea Hillenbrand DFAed

I can't remember this guy being any good/worth following since that first half when he was on the Red Sox. -
This is tough, I'm not sure whether to go with the sympathy or the cold, hard analysis vote.

Marco, for various reasons, among them being a Cubs fan in the UK.

I don't care if your record is 0-100 and you're scoring a half a run a game, you don't trade a talent like Buehrle for the mediocre value the Sox could've received in trade if Buehrle's willing to extend at such a discount rate. Again, pitching really isn't the problem for the White Sox. It's not spectacular, but it's decent. The White Sox have a decent amount of arms in the pipeline that they can afford to trade away a guy like Buerhle. And why assume that what they get back would be mediocre? I never said that a trade would for offense would 'fix' their offense, but it would probably improve it, which is what they need, and I don't doubt that they can do such a thing by trading Buerhle. Now, if you can shop Vazquez or Contreras and get essentially what you would for Buerhle, while still locking up the latter to an extension, then, obviously that would be the ideal scenario, or close to the ideal scenario. But that's a big 'if', and Buerhle seems to be a hot commodity willing to command some decent bats in return.
-
That deal would make little sense for the Sox, IMO. Granted, you get him at a discount, but you're ruining the chance of getting any productive offense via trade this year if you lock Buerhle up, and offense is what that team needs, not pitching.

This is either really good or the ultimate in fake rallies.

Is there such a thing as 'premium laminate floor'? I always assumed that premium generally denoted that it was not a laminate, but rather a natural surface.

Aramis Ramirez looks like a 28-year old with male-pattern.

Tank Johnson reaches an agreement in principle with the Bengals in 3... 2... 1...

I think it's safe to say that not only has Ryan Dempster not been bad this year, he's actually been pretty good.
-
I think he sits around all day smoking pot with Sean Marshall. Get your facts straight, mister. They eat brownies.
-
he stated in an interview recently that he is with the team on weekends when they are in Chicago.
-
I believe your original statement ended with 'lets bust out the champagne' or whatever, to which I was going to respond with something like... "4 games within .500? :confetti:" But then I was told I needed some sort of high-level clearance to access the thread.

I already made t-shirts. 10 bucks.

what in god's name happened to this thread?

RocketSauce take out the e, t, a, u, c, and e and add an exclamation point and what do you have? RockS! This is how I make decisions people, there is no other way.
