    Wow this was an incredibly stupid post. If what Sammy is doing is looking bad, I'd love to see some Cubs outfielders do that.

    1-year deal? Bummer, I was hoping he'd return.

    awesome link, but think you meant this for another thread :lol: I like it here though, I say it stays.

    My favorite part: 12 yards long, 2 lanes wide, 65 tons of American Pride!

    A couple of months? I know a baseball season is kind of long, but come on. I'm still trying to figure out how a baseball team learns to win with each other. So Derrek, you like hitting the ball that way and think I should run around the bases when you hit it. That's cool, we did that differently in Washington, but I'll figure it out. Hey Carlos, I think we need to figure out which days you plan on giving up lots of runs and which days you'll give up just 1 or 2, so we can adjust our offensive strategy accordingly.

    OK, now that is impressive. Although I do think a few of those trades were made on sheer publicity more than what he had to offer. That was the point. It was all about what would be more valuable to the individual. It's called value added.

    Did Everett actually get to punch Rome? I thought he just shoved him and the table down. If he did get to punch him, then Everett is the clear winner. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOVxitMy47c There was no punch, nor was there a shove. It was staged. He goes for the table before Rome says it the last time. He can hardly keep himself from laughing. This clip made Rome's career.

    There will be expansion within the next 10 years. And I'm looking forward to it. 16 teams in each league will help do away with some of the weird schedule issues. Plus, they can go back to 2 divisions in each league, 8 and 8, going with two wild cards. At that point I'd strongly consider having the two wild card teams being forced to host a one game playoff against the next two best teams before going to the division winners, thus putting a greater emphasis on winning your division.

    as a premium subscriber I know you can turn off a lot of that stuff.

    Same here. I think the best thing to hope for is quality starts for most of the rest of the year. He is bound to have an implode game at some point, I just folks don't go nuts on him after one such bad game. Yeah, he'll go out there one day and won't have the control or the movement and get tagged up pretty good. The key will be coming back after. Kind of like what Lilly needs to do now that he's had his first crushing. Lilly didn't really get crushed though. Sure he gave up 9 hits and 4 ER in less than 6 complete. But he maintained a 5/1 K/BB ratio and a couple of those hits were bunt hits, while 2 of the runs scored because of Izturis's incompetence.

    While we're talking about this stuff, the last place Yankees are 10-14, but "should" be 13-11, as they've scored a ton of runs and gone 1-5 in 1 run games. I'm hoping like heck that they're real record doesn't catch up to that expected record, because I would love an October without Yankee baseball.

    We're a few months into a contract that lasts a few years. I'm not eating anything until we're a little further down this path. Absolutely. But I'd be more than happy to start looking for recipes. better serve up some of that for yourself too goony. maybe add a side helping of theriot not starting to go along with marquis. Huh? I'm saying I've been wrong so far. As for Theriot, I wanted him starting, out of all Cubs SS options. What I've said about him is that I think the odds aren't in his favor to be an everyday guy, all season long.

    The NBA playoffs are still going on?

    interesting. i'll have to look for that. I don't remember what his motion used to look like. But I zoomed through his outing last night on the DVR, and definitely noticed a bit of a pause. Maybe that's a gimmick that is fooling hitters now and won't last, but regardless of what it is, he's doing much better than I had thought possible. I thought he'd be a "quality start" pitcher at his best, ie 6 ip 3 er outings. I definitely wasn't expecting 0 or 1 run in 4 of 6 outings.

    I get pissed when I'm forced to sit through Yankees and Mets games every Saturday (or Philly when I'm down the shore). Although I guess in the long run that's a good thing, because then I spend more time outside. But then again, that just means more time in the sun, which in the really long run could kill me. But anyway, I guess I don't have it too bad compared to those who live in the tweener cities/states.

    He's been amazing. Looks like Larry might have been on to something.
  18. jersey cubs fan
    He was referring to you hoping they don't keep up this pace; 106 wins... What he said. They are on pace for 106 wins. Odds are that won't continue. But even if their pace slows considerably, they've got a great shot at 90 wins. And they'd really have to struggle to only get 85.
  19. jersey cubs fan
    Once they get ARod and Cabrera, sure.
  20. jersey cubs fan
    No, I don't think they have a realistic chance for 106 wins.
  21. jersey cubs fan
    That is some awful camera work.

    I would not like to see teams retracted. Moved? Maybe. The NY area could easily support a baseball team, specifically the Hudson county area, along the river and across from Manhattan. There is public transport galore, the most densely populated area in the country, and the potential to easily attract 3+ million per year. Plus that would have the added advantage of tapping into the revenue that is shared by the Mets and Yanks, acting as a pseudo revenue sharing system that could help balance the power in the MLB, if only a little bit. There should be a lot of threads retracted though.

    This stupid freaking topic again? Gas prices rise going into the summer, every summer, and especially last summer, when people were freaking about a hurricane season that never happened. Gas prices fall every fall, and especially last fall, when the bottom dropped on oil prices after the much predicted hurricane season never happened. My lord.
  24. jersey cubs fan
    Yeah, that's the story I was hearing. Don't know the details, I just kept hearing Mike and the Mad Dog refer to this being something that the marketing people pushed. Apparantly the guy runs some sort of fitness center that has a deal in place with the Yankees, but had no history working with baseball players. Sounds like a controversy the Cubs could get involved in.

    Bad timing on Jonah's part, he's hitting .348/.423/.870 in his last 7 games. His overall OBP remains a problem, but he's been modestly productive, especially for a guy making $500,000.
