aramahustle, I like it.

The way Sori has been hitting, sure.

I hope Lee's wrist is fully healed.

Went straight into the clubhouse and is out of the game, so it's not good.

That's why you don't hop like an idiot.

Nobody?

You should leave the rotation as is (well, get Hill out of the bullpen and into a regular rotation). You have to allow these pitchers the time to get over their struggles. I was hoping Hendry was going to get another quality arm in the offseason, but it didn't happen. Z - you know what you are getting. Lilly - figured he would regress from last year, hopefully it's not going to continue to be drastic. Demp - I think will turn out to be a decent #3, I always thought his "stuff" was meant more for a starter than closer. He doesn't have any dominate pitches, but has a couple decent ones especially if his split is doing well. Marquis - we all know he is a first half producer, keep him in the rotation until it's obvious he's falling off again. Hill - he will bounce back, it better be sooner than later. Changing your mechanics late in spring training isn't an ideal thing to do. Lieber - I think is a perfect fit for where he is at, long man. Highly doubt he could last a full year as a starter anyways. Keep him where he is at until Marquis deconstructs. Marshall - hasn't proven he can last a whole season, I would rather see him in AAA stretching things out and have him ready when we need him up. When is Stevie Eyre supposed to be back? Gallagher - keep him in AAA unless things get desparate, which I really don't think they will.

C'mon Truffle. Babe Ruth batted lefty. And in any case he hit far fewer homers off the Cubs than Burrell has. Truffle? Posted the lineups that started the B. Ruth thing. Are you going to watch hockey or the Cubs? I'm going to constantly be flipping back and forth.

It's really unfair that Babe Ruth dug himself out of the grave and is starting in LF again tonight.

I hate myself a lot for laughing at this I sung it in my head and giggled a little bit. I just hope it doesn't stick in my head every time he has an AB.

Hit the ball into the outfield and then ran to third.

He played poorly in game 2.

Mr. Gritgrind now playing 1B for the Astros.

no power, especially oppo.

:wink: Oh yeah, I forgot, thanks Fred.

Yes, my favorite stat - P/PA. Way to go COBS.

I heard the announcers say he gets 8 warm up pitches, not sure if that is the rule or not.

White Sox fans, all 5 die-hard.

Any other Ignatians besides O_O and me?

I thought it was the Old Style.

I think he will get kicked out of a game but it will be more subdue. I'm thinking the Cubs are slow to start the second half and Lou goes off July 30th in Milwaukee.

I think there was a thread last year where we guessed the game Lou would get ejected. Personally, I had fun with the anticipation and eventual blow-up of Lou. It was a calculated ejection by Lou and he has said he is embarrassed for how he acted last year. Some questions: Will this team give Lou a reason to "divert attention" again? Is Lou embarrassed enough about last year he will not get ejected this year? If not, what game will Lou let loose?

I could take both days off of work, but then I would probably be told to take many, many more days off.

I have a Marquis beard, I guess it's time to cut it.
