    Sometimes I feel like people don't follow the same Cubs team that I follow.

    would have been nice if he didn't convince management he could "coach these guys up" instead of going out and getting better linemen.

    Am I missing something here? Bowden is going to start in Garza's place next time? He'll probably be back to start a game in the DH Saturday, since rosters can go to 26. "He" meaning Raley. Bowden is here for bullpen help the next week, Raley can supposedly come back up.

    the forecast indicates it will be mostly gone. Wind will be blowing straight in.

    My god that is so stupid. So the only way you can justify claiming there are racial overtones to how some are playing is by confirming that all minority players are criticized and no white players are? Seriously, that is just so dumb. That's not "the thing", that's just dumb.

    yeah, sammy was hated by many back in the 99/00/01 timeframe when "he only hit HR when it didn't matter" was the main complaint.

    He was on the team for 2 years, was really good in the 1st and got hit in the face and missed much of the 2nd. He signed a reasonable contract and lived up to it. There was very little for the bigoted idiots to get riled up about, and very little time for their simple minds to process his 2012 decline.

    I think Chris Williams is the most talented lineman, he's just physically fragile and may be a little too soft mentally. Carimi is just a solid lineman who could be a standout RT, but I don't think he can handle it physically as well as Williams could if he ever put it together.

    It is pretty ridiculous to say "there's no guarantee" shutting him down would help and then make a pointless statement about how if he got the last 5 outs you'd sacrifice his arms for that.

    Well people make accusations about players' mindsets "without really knowing" all the time. It can be overplayed at times, but it is painfully obvious the sort of negative stance people have taken on all sorts of players. Sammy Sosa's ego was overlooked because only an idiot would dwell on his ego when he was the best player on the team by a mile and a half and playing really well. The minute he struggled however he was treated with a hell of a lot more disdain than Ryne Sandberg was when he quit on the team midseason.

    Brad Biggs ‏@BradBiggs Tice: "Chris is over there on the left side. I didn't feel like the other player was up to par."

    Does Lovie not understand that there are world championships every year and lots of meets/competitions in the interim? I think he understands that but also understands about the timeliness of using the Olympics as a way to motivate his players.

    way too much discussion for an activity that is essentially practice for real sports.

    those mountain bike races were some of the more entertaining things I saw these olympics, so much better than road races.

    That is a ridiculously silly thing to say in 2012.

    Houston here we come

    What?

    Sorry Tim, but that is ridiculously gloomy. Disastrous as it gets? I could think of much bigger disasters than what Castro has done this year. Nice cherry picking of quotes. Fine, remove the defense and it's as disastrous a season as could have been realistically expected. The only offensive category Starlin has shown improvement on is HR. Every other category has regressed. That's pretty [expletive] disastrous. I'm not cherry picking anything. I condensed the quote because it is a ridiculous statement. There is nothing disastrous about regression by a 22 year old in his 2nd year. Regression is perfectly normal if not expected. It's moderately disappointing at most but it's not "disastrous as it gets".

    1-0

    tried to get soriano out high and completely missed his spot. That could have been something.

    intriguing start
  23. jersey cubs fan
    Really? How do you figure? Prospects have been valued more and more around the league in recent years when they used to be throw-ins for veteran/veteran swaps. A highly touted hitting prospect on the verge of making the majors will get you tremendous value in a trade.
  24. jersey cubs fan
    well done vitters

    oh, okay then
