  1. I'm glad to see the Cubs take a stand on this as they did...If I showed up late to my job twice in a row, I would be out of a job
  2. maybe. but the cubs have hit significantly more homeruns at home (64 in 71 games) vs. the road (47 in 65 games) Understand that...that was just one of the reasons I gave...and my position is that power isn't everything.
  3. Terrible lineup. Soto should be in there and Murton should be in RF. We gonna probably lose 2-0. Furcal and Pierre will be stealing on Kendall all day everyday. Keep them off the bases and it's not a problem, is it? As for Kendall offensively...he's above his career averages across the board since coming to the Cubs....and is posting an OPS just shy of .800 -- Given the crap we've gotten from the catcher position before Kendall, I'll take it gladly!
  4. Sullivan says EPatt's tardiness was an issue at Iowa too! http://blogs.chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sports_hardball/2007/09/big-z-i-love-th.html
  5. Forsooth. white sox in 4th place ??? no way..... they're heading straight to first place !!! In case anybody hasn't been paying attention lately.......... Fecal League Standing Team W L Pct GB Tampa Bay 55 81 0.404 --- white sox 57 79 0.419 2.0 Washington 59 77 0.434 4.0 Florida 59 77 0.434 4.0 Pittsburgh 59 76 0.437 4.5 Baltimore 59 75 0.440 5.0 Kenny Williams is truly a genius !!! memo to Balsa...... for sooth is 2 words. Remember in the beginning of the Season when the Baseball Prospectus had the White Sox going 71-91, how all the White Sox fans and people on the Score called the Baseball Prospectus complete garbage. Well I wonder if you will hear them doing a mea culpa. I'll bet you there are scores of us who thought the same thing though...with such a small turnover in talent from year to year, it was extremely hard to believe that the Sox could go from a 90 win team to a 70 win team...That said, I love every word of it, and will gladly eat crow!
  6. Everything besides the power numbers are up this year vs. last -- BA, OBP, Runs, BB....Power's down...but some has to be attributed to injury....some has to be attributed to lack of playing time (Jock), and deservedly so...and some has to be attributed to the fact that the wind has blown in this year at an nearly unprecedented rate.
  7. Dodgers score 3 in the first and run away from there. Final score 8-1
  8. A fake rally in this case would constitute 6-7 runs.. I wouldn't bet on it one bit.
  9. This was a day you needed to take 2 ticks off the magic number..that's the most frustrating thing.
  10. Have you watched Gallagher this inning?
  11. The Pirates beat the Cards with the Pirates ACE on the mound The Astros beat the Crew with the Astros ACE on the mound... You'd think the Cubs would have a good chance of winning with their "ACE" on the mound against someone who's on the downhill side of his career...but no, our "ACE" sucks! This is a huge loss! Now that the Pirates and Stros can throw the rest of their crappy rotation out against the Cards and Crew...I don't think there's much hope for the rest of those series for Cub fans. And don't think it gets any easier for us...remember that guy Penny?? Yeah, he goes tomorrow.. I thought some rookie was going tomorrow in place of Wells? That's Wednesday -- it's Penny tomorrow, rookie on Wednesday
  12. Kendall's hand is hurt -- got hit by a pitch yesterday
  13. If this doesn't send him a message, I'd be very surprised. I expect him to rebound bigtime in his next start.
  14. The Pirates beat the Cards with the Pirates ACE on the mound The Astros beat the Crew with the Astros ACE on the mound...

  15. Nice AB Riot -- Now let's get a couple with the heart of the order up.
  16. Bout damn time! Unnecessarily driving up his pitch count.
  17. Prediction: Z walks the pitcher, allowing Furcal to drive in 2 more with a gapper
