  1. Santo says Jones' arm is not bad. Santo, you are a horrible baseball analyst.
  2. Iowa is calling Matt. Do people realize that Matt is hitting nearly .300 right now? He's above league average. He's hitting .231.
  3. If they play one worth talking about I'll talk about it.
  4. The 2006 Cardinals were not a fluke. How is an 83-win team winning the World Series not a fluke? The Mets were clearly the best team in the NL last year. No they weren't they had a terrible pitching staff and it led to their downfall. You people are nuts. They had the 3rd best ERA in the league last year. Their downfall was all the pitching injuries they suffered right at the end of the year.
  5. Just like the miraculous comeback by the Astros in '05, the Cubs should not make their decisions based on how they compare to what the Cardinals were like last year. Why not? Basing plans off of world champions and practically yearly division champions is bad? Hoping to emulate lucky flukes is poor planning. The Cubs should try and build a 90+ game winner that is capable of 100 wins, not a team that might squeek by if things go their way. I think Cubs fans are the only fans that perceive the Cards as a lucky franchise. Give them some respect already. I'm not saying the Cardinals are a lucky franchise. I'm saying the 2006 Cardinals, like the 2005 Astros, got lucky to get where they went.

  8. Did he want to make sure Theriot got the take sign?
  9. So, basically, if we aren't the runaway best team we should just wrap it up and play kids? Playing Murton is not wrapping it up. He's as good as Floyd and Jones, at least, and should get better. None of the Cubs OF is an ideal OF, they need all of them to produce if they hope to succeed.
  10. :shock: :shock: :shock: Putting the ball in play is awesome.
  11. Better bench Murton forever, then! Stop being dramatic. I'm just saying, through what I've seen of the season, Floyd's been a better player. And we NEED to win right now, not play Murton for the heck of it. You disagree with either of those statements? There don't seem to be many people who think we can win this year. Everyone is like "Floyd is old, what happens then?" Right now, Floyd is producing, Murton isn't. In this weak division, anyone can win, and as last year showed, all you need to do is make the playoffs and then ANYTHING can happen. I'm a Murton fan but right now I'd rather see Floyd out there. Floyd is not the only guy Murton can platoon with. Jones has something like a 550 OPS.

And we NEED to win right now, not play Murton for the heck of it. You disagree with either of those statements? You don't play Murton for the heck of it, you play him because he's shown he can be a reliable producer and one of the few OBP threats on the team.
  13. yes Dusty was the master of going to the pen and having the new guy throw an intentional walk. So, SO stupid Farnsworth that and having a pinch hitter sac bunt
  14. It was a terrible idea. His job is to put out fires, not eat innings. He will now be unavailable for a few days, and he's far less effective the longer he goes.
  15. Gee, you stretch a reliever past what he's used to and he struggles. Who knew that could happen? Come on Lou, that was brutal.
  16. well, all they show on WGN is: Cubs Sox Bulls Lizzy McGuire AFV Becker Sex and the City. I remember those ads during every Cubs game.
  17. The difference for me is last night's game was won, and you still have to make something happen to win this game. Ideally you don't make the move, but sometimes it's necessary.
  18. The good thing about that fast inning was the stupid celebrity interview lasted about 5 seconds.
  19. Miller gives up 6 hits and 4 walks and it's tied, you're darn right I'm ecstatic. but, but a 5.40 ERA with a 2.00 WHIP is never acceptable, right GOONY? Correct. It's an unacceptable performance by the pitcher. I'm ecstatic that they were lucky enough to still be in the game.
