    Damage to our offense, maybe. His 2003-2005 stolen base percentage was 66%, less than the break even point of 70%-75%. I'd much rather have Theriot out there than Tony Womack or Neifi Perez, but to badmouth Walker and praise Theriot in the same breath is ridiculous and hurts your credibility. Whatever. Theirot is a better athlete and overall ball player than Walker and Cedeno. and It goes beyond the stats. Theirot has good range at 2B, good speed which is helpful for staying out of DB's etc. and gets on base, takes pitches, works counts...etc...

    So Walker's slugging % isn't good, but you like Theriot? :roll: I like Theirot because he can do damage on the basepaths and has more range defensively. I don't see what is so hard to understand. Walker gets a single..he will remain at first unless he is advanced by the hitter. Theirot gets a single and there is a good chance he is taking second.

    That's some of the most nonsensical gibberish I've read. I'll try and clear it up. Walker was never clutch. Yet he always seemed to be hitting .280-.290 when you looked at his stats, He would always seem to get that 2 out double in the 7th inning with the Cubs down 8-0. He did take pitchers, and get on base...trouble is he would have trouble beating a parapalegic in a footrace. Seemed is a dangerous word. Clutch is BS. But just for the fun of it, from 2003-2005, 3 full seasons, Todd Walker hit .272/.330/.432 with nobody on, .290/.356/.443 with RISP, and .316/.409/.500 with RISP/2 outs. Maybe the problem was that the Cubs were down 8-0 too often. I didn't realize that his numbers were that high with RISP. maybe we were down 8-0 too much. but as the other poster pointed out terrible slugging % and if you have a terrible slugging % and are dead weight on the basepaths..and a liabilty in the field..what good are you to a team.

So, even though he got on base more than everybody not named Barrett or Murton, he hit a "soft" .280? And what makes him not clutch? The fact he was FOURTH in RBI's behind Ramirez, Barrett, and Jones? Oh, but its his speed that gets him in trouble, right? Unlike, say, Juan Pierre. I mean, WOW, he's so fast! He must get on base SO much more, and do SO much more damage! (actually no, his OBP is 30 points lower) his slugging % was terrible this year. Cedeno will be no better....I really like this Theirot kid though... but I think Dusty hates him.

    Cedeno just lost his job to Theirot. if we had a manager with any balls.

    Thanks, I've been saying that for a while now. Hendry and co are terrible. I am going to photoshop a picture of hendry going thru a dumpster... it will be titled: Jim Hendry Dumpster Diving since 2003. Will you put Maddux, DLEE, ARAM, and Nomar in there? All guys we got after 2003 started. I'm thinking more along the lines of: Perez Rusch Ryan Dumpster Burnitz Bad Ohman Roberta Rovoa Todd Walker and the beat goes on...some GM's get talent..others go Dumpster Diving. Thats funny. Todd Walker..the softest .280 second baseman in the game...and one of the worst defensively. Teams were sure axious to get him when he was on the trading block for over 6 months.

    Hey Fred, your mission if you decide to accept: For each of Aram's home runs this year, is there any way to find out what the game score and inning was and also the Cub's record entering that game? I'm curious as to how many of his HRs came during meaningful times of a game and during a time the Cubs weren't tanking (realizing they were in the race only a few weeks). I think that most of Aram's HR's are meaningful, after all he is playing for a new contract. heck...it we do re-sign him and give him another out clause..maybe he will hit 50 HR's. :wink:

    working deep counts..getting on base...keeping innings alive! what the heck is he doing! he is gonna get a lecture from dusty... Ryan, mans...we don't do thats up here....hold on a sec..I needs a another toothpick...see Ryan I was ats my nephews little league game and theys was tellin's these kids to walk! walk! whats thats about..you gotta swing..swing hard! shoot for the moon..even if you miss...you'll land amound the stars!
  13. Soriano12
    wow..Theirot works another count and gets on base...he will be back in Iowa if he keeps this up. didn't he get the memo.
  14. Soriano12
    No thanks..we aleady have one broke down pitcher throwing 88. Michelle Prior.
  15. Soriano12
    With the young guys pitching well there is no point for Rusch to even be on this team. But he has a 2+ million contract..Only a moron like Hendry would give him that $$$. The worst GM in baseball folks.

    Mateo.... Mateo.... Daylight come and me want go home
  17. Soriano12
    Izzy would've made that play... Furcal would have made that play, gave you good production at leadoff... and yeah...you would still have Nolasco. but why get Furcal when you can go dumpster diving, thanks Jim

    nice outing Prior..take a hike out of chicago you bum.
  20. Soriano12
    Am I reading GameTrax right...did Neifi take a walk?
  21. Soriano12
    He does look sick (literally). menstrual cramping?
  22. Soriano12
    Prior's daddy told him not to throw hard today.
  23. Soriano12
    when your 4 and 5 hitters are Nevin and Jones..you are pretty much screwed.
  24. Soriano12
    freakin Nevin and Jockstrap....GARBAGE!
  25. Soriano12
    Nevin is such a freakin bum. All he cares about is trying to hit a HR. Murton should move to 1st until D. Lee gets back and put Pagan in LF every day. scew Nevin, another dumpster dive move by Hendry
