    Jason Giambi is doing the Kyle Orton. Booya. http://withleather.uproxx.com/post.phtml?pk=6381

    Hopefully Lou won't think he needs to throw him out there in 3 of the first four games after the break to see. One can only hope.

    Although I obviously dislike the ASG on general principle, I'm glad Marmol played in hindsight, but only because he did so well. Hopefully this and the days off will get him set straight.

    Is it still assumed he'll be sent up to AAA for his next start? He better be...

    Wow if this happens I totally demand credit for calling this yesterday.

    Jeff sure is intriguing.

    At least I have something to follow today I suppose.

    Good question. An even better one is, would CC then eat his arm?

    Meph's boy Khalil Greene would make an OK backup at SS and has some pop off the right side of the plate. Khalil Greene would be pointless, he doesn't have pop this year. The argument everyone likes to make about how well he would do outside Petco doesn't really hold water this year. He's slugging higher at home then on the road. And when I say higher, that doesn't exactly means that its high. Home: SLG% .362 Road: SLG% .298 He has been terrible. Oh I know. Hence him being a backup. I'd do that deal hoping a change of scenery might make him not suck.

    No offense, but are you serious? The Cubs are done with SP for this season and I don't think I'd want them spending more chips on it as its probably the area they need the least improvement in. I'd say they could use a bullpen guy if he came cheap and same for the bench.

    From that angle, Reed looks just like Dave Attell

    The Cards are pretty damn funny this weekend.

    I wish.

    So I just learned Pat Hughes' first name is actually Virgil.

    You're a jerk, Jose.

    This is insane.

    That's what I've been hoping for. Worked with Cain.

    Since May 4th, Fukudome has hit .245 with a .356 OBP, slugged .365, for a whopping .722 OPS. That is what he has done since May 4th. That is a long time. That's not "oh, he's hit a rough 10 day patch." I don't understand the reasoning behind some of the knee-jerk defenses in this topic. A .722 OPS for a corner outfielder since May 4th is not good enough. Since June 4 he's hit .238 with a .340 OBP, slugged .369, for a .709 OPS, with 32 strikeouts in 122 ABs. Isn't there reasonable cause for concern here? You're right, it's not a 10 game rough patch. It's a 14 game rough patch. Again: 3/31 - 5/3 - .348/.443/.500 5/4 - 5/26 - .206/.329/.265 5/27 - 6/28 - .315/.423/.500 6/28 - 7/12 - .170/.254/.245 He's having his second slump as a big leaguer. Before this one, he was hitting .301/.407/.441. It's not a huge deal. Now excuse me while I have to go ice my knee after hitting it on my desk. Calm down, Jon.

    In other games news, the Cards are sending Piniero up against Snell at 12:35 and the Reds are playing Homer Bailey against some guy named CC Sabathia at 7:05. How great would it be if the Reds offense lit him up?

    With Harden, Hill and the two rivals losing it'll be hard to top Saturday.

    Almost like a trading deadline acquisition without giving anybody up. That's sort of how I feel about Soriano too. I'm so optimistic regarding the rest of the year! I'm not sure I've ever been more proud or excited to be a Cubs fan! It's obvious that a season-ending injury is coming. For whom, Hill? Even that would hardly be devastating to their chances this year. To be honest, even if Harden has to make a relatively brief trip to the DL it wouldn't bother me that much, as long that the Cubs are extra cautious regarding his health come playoff time. I was joking. It seems like we've been too lucky. Something bad just has to happen. We already have had DL time for Soriano and Z. It's not like we've been immune. The team still persevered. Yea great teams tend to do that, which would explain our unfamiliarity with such happenings.

    Wow having watched that clip I can that without a doubt those are the most talentless announcers I've ever seen. Incredible. Calling the walkoff homerun on a replay one of them goes "Baseball game!"
