I'm unavailable to pick

The biggest need is a capable goalie right now. I'm not a huge fan of spending big cash on a goaltender, but Crawford was one of the worst starting goaltenders in the league this year. That's a position that needs to be addressed somehow in the offseason. The biggest need of this team is to figure out how to score on the pp. all that high priced talent and stars and they are collectively incompetent. Goalies come and go.

so the extra charges on sunday ticket are just red zone related? That and game mix I guess? I don't need that crap.

Are we talking more than Rizzo and Jackson amongst that several? For comparison's sake, I'm not sure you can expect Rizzo to do any better than what LaHair has done to date. On the other hand, Jackson could probably start hitting right handed and do a better job than Byrd has. -
How Has the Cubs Attendance Been This Season?

what the hell is a true fan? -
On the contrary it pretty much means he's one of the best.

wonder if that is base price prior to HD upgrade

You should really try and read what other people write, and then process the entire sentence. Nobody is saying the offense is fine. The fact that Soriano's OPS may jump from 500 to 580 after a homerun does not erase the fact that both a 500 and 580 OPS suck. Your bad is that you are not thinking.

https://twitter.com/#!/BruceMiles2112/status/193368245389107200 According to Bruce, Dempster is questionable for Sunday and Wells would be his fill-in.

Host: Vinny from Melrose you're on. Vinny: ..... Host: Vinny, go ahead. Vinny: ..... Host: Can Vinny hear/(interupted by Vinny) Vinny: Hello? Host: Yes, hey Vinny, you're on the air, go ahead with your thoughts on today's game. Vinny: Am I on. Host: Yes, go ahead. Vinny: Yeah, dis is Vinny from Melrose I got a comment and question about the Cubs. Host: Let's hear it. Vinny: Yeah, this team, every year we hear in spring training that they will be working on fundamentals and every year, this team, they can't do the fundamentals. When are they going to get a manager in here who will make these guys work on bunting and baserunning and being where you are supposed to be? And bench them when they mess up. Host: Good question Vinny, it does seem like this team just isn't fundamentally sound.

My guess is the concern is how little the starters have gone the past 6 starts and therefore how much more the relievers have been used. They must be thinking of a way to get a long man in there.

This is some incredibly stupid nonsense.
-
I'd rather this team do something about everybody else on the ice rather than spend huge on a goaltender.

When do the Cubs get their first series win?
jersey cubs fan replied to dfnowak's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Theo told the team that the Cubs Way was to play like every series was the playoffs. He didn't think that one through. I doubt this is true, we've already won several games. 3. The Cubs have won 3 games. -
Hell no.

You can only describe any aspect of a baseball team as good or bad based on how they compare with all of the rest. Philly was about as bad as the Cubs were last year and I'm not sure they'll be any better this year. What the other person was saying is that the level of bad they are doesn't quite match up with the description some people are giving it.

Because he is the best option to face RH pitching and play 3B on this team as it currently stands. And nobody in the minors is even close to being ready.

yes, vitters. And yes it is entirely possible that baker is our best 3b (considering offense along with d) stewart is a good defender but he hit .153 last year and seems to be heading that direction, he has never hit .260, hit 20 hrs once and he is a career .235 hitte (in colorado even) his career fielding is lower than bakers(not the best stat to decide) and baker had a .270 career average coming into this year doing the hardest job of hitting by pinch hitting and spot starting with no one else in the lineup that is a proven hitter at all, yes, it is entirely possible that Baker could be the 2nd best...who do you go with ? soriano at .274 career and .244 last year, dejesus .84 career, ,240 last year, byrd .279 career .276 last year? or barney and Lahair..young and unproven-small sample sizes. bottom line is we have a bad, bad lineup and a career untility guy could very well be our 2nd best hitter. holy run-on nonsensical sentence batman. You can start by not using batting average all over the place. And if Baker starts until Vitters is ready that would be really stupid. Baker is a nice RH bat off the bench. That is all he is. Let him start vs LHP and pinch hit. Nothing more.

Wow, that was two years ago already? Yeah, that offense was atrocious. Ichiro was the only regular with an OPS over .700 (and he was just .754). Russell Branyan was the best hitter on that roster. Defense and baserunning baby, that is all you need to win.
-
Maybe a little. But Dempster isn't going to have a sub 2.00 ERA all year either. They decided to go with guys who can hold their own but everything behind Garza was a question coming in and the final answers to those questions will be hard to ascertain. They actually have the 10th ranked starters' ERA right now (thanks to half their starters' innings coming from Dempster and Garza), but they are dead last in relief. They don't have any good relievers beyond Russell.

Byrd looks like he's driving himself insane.
