  1. seems pretty clear to me. oh, so now you're a strict constructionist? how convenient. listen, the rule is about as clear as it can get. the ben sheets situation is completely different for reasons we've talked about a thousand times. if every time i bring something up, everybody's going to throw ben [expletive] sheets in my face, then i guess everyone is allowed to break the rules when they play me because i'm a cheater that has ben sheets on the DL so who am i to ask others to abide by the rules. i don't really care. i'm going to lose this week anyway. but if that's not the rule, then take down the freaking rule post because it apparently doesn't apply. tim agreed with me. there's no reason to have a monday roster deadline if it flat out doesn't apply to pitchers or position players. if that's not the rule, then change it.
  2. in the chat, juan said mid-week moves have always been allowed, but i really don't think that's the case. the rule says: seems pretty clear to me.
  3. marmol is actually considerably worse right now, so no.
  4. sac bunting to set things up for the booming bats of andres blanco and koyie hill.
  5. andruw jones was a [expletive] beast that year.
  6. throwing waist high fastballs to that hack is really not a good idea.
  7. he didn't get hurt until after the trade. though i believe he had some back issues while with the cubs in '08.
  8. he was in the minor league system because he was rehabbing an injury.
  9. CURSE OF THE JOBA.
  10. well best of luck to all of you.
  11. who will have the high score this week? don or tim? i'm on the edge of my seat!
  12. lol WGN. i get it.* *looks like "wagon."
  13. well, they're both going to steal 2nd (and sometimes 3rd) each time.
  14. the dodgers are probably not the team you want to begin this experiment with. pierre and furcal will have three bunt hits each with fox at 3b.
  15. i like that metaphor.
  16. good thing the cubs have fontenot's terrible left-handed bat in there.
  17. that's just stupid. he's not even going to play. If hes our 1 backup middle infielder, he'll see some time. ok, we'll see if he's as hated as all those guys combined after one week. oh man, i'm already starting to hate him. i think you were right.
  18. is that what your research has shown?
  19. that's just stupid. he's not even going to play. If hes our 1 backup middle infielder, he'll see some time. ok, we'll see if he's as hated as all those guys combined after one week.

    Week 8

    hey, i'm unbanned. shane has two active/healthy guys (dice-k and romero) on his DL.
  21. Maybe Samardzija to the rotation, Hart to the bullpen...or whoever. then they should have kept samardzija in AAA so he could start. this whole thing is dumb because a) the cubs may need samardzija to become a starter at moment's notice, and if he's throwing 13 pitches every three days, that's not going to work and b) vizcaino wasn't doing anything wrong and the bullpen didn't need samardzija.
  22. i don't want to hear about the cubs' financial hardships when they've already pissed away $7 mil on gaudin and vizcaino and it's not even may yet.
  23. 4 for 5 on negative starts this week. not gonna win many matchups doing that.
