yep...went back and looked it up. ubaldo: 6 1/3, 1 h, 4 bb, 1 er, 10 k's. hill: 6 ip, 1 h, 1 bb, 0 er, 4 k's. looking at hill's 2007 game log makes me sad. :(

it was the mind of mencia guy. you didn't miss much.
-
why is him hitting 4th any better than him hitting 3rd?
-
peavy, teix, rollins and hawpe are at 1,717. i'd be happy with those guys as my keepers, i suppose. kinda wish peavy hadn't had that huge start last week... looks like prince, soriano and others will be on the block...
-
i don't know if i've ever kept a non-exempt SP that pitched a whole season...especially now that they score more points. i am tempted to keep peavy due to his shortened season, but he's still got a bunch of points.
-
and wtf is up with baltimore and oakland having sunday off??
-
yeah, if i don't win it, i'll be pulling for alamo. we were both short-handed in the championship week, but i was really lucky to get some big starts on the last day of the season (if i remember right) to come from behind and win.

Actually that would be a good thing. How something affects the Cubs is infinitely more important than how it affects your fantasy team. whether sheets starts doesn't have any effect on the cubs. It makes it more likely that the Brewers will lose if he doesn't start. That shouldn't affect the Cubs if they take care of business, but it conceivably could. not really. the cubs don't even have to pay attention to the brewers. the only team that matters is the team behind the brewers in the WC race.

Does CLiff Lee prove that there is hope for Rich Hill?
abuck1220 replied to Little Slide Rooter's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
there have been 1,000 pitchers who were among the top pitchers in the league at age 27 and were never heard from again? -
ok, that's a bit of a reach. i'd probably be happy with 20 points from him vs. the mets. worst part about the injury is him possibly losing his second start. He had what, 55 pitches and 1 hit through 5. He's known to pitch a complete game or two. How is that a reach? I said could have...not would have. it's not really worth arguing about, but you make it sound like you just got robbed of 20 points. as we all know, a lot can happen between inning six and inning nine, and we've all seen good starts go bad real fast. he could have just as easily given up three runs over the next two innings...he didn't have any k's, so it doesn't sound like he was blowing anyone away. in any event, not a real good start to this week for me.

you're going to keep randy johnson?

Don't count on it happening again. My pitchers are so off and on this year, it's unreal. I hate having to throw Sheets today vs the Mets! yeah, i need a nice 4 point outing out of him today. uggla, as usual, is the key to my team. he can put up a 30 point week or a 2.75 point week. yikes, tim shouldn't have started verlander. [expletive] that guy...i missed the playoffs in another league by the tiniest of margins and it's because i kept running that [expletive] out there every week.
-
if i hit .353, steal 13 bases and score 366 points this week, i better win. i also hope tootie doesn't have seven starts all of 17+ points.
-
getting my ass kicked despite hitting .361 and stealing 12 (!) bases on the week. six 19+ point starts for tootie.
-
Well, to be fair, the umpires did know that the ball hit Victorino, unlike Stockton... "Strike three!!!" that's true. the worst thing about the hbp wasn't that he didn't move, it was that the pitch was a strike.
-
the only thing worse than dick stockon is this umpiring crew.
-
is this announcer honestly pondering whether EC should try a FG up five with six seconds left on VT's 25?
-
He said that with the umpire, the hitter, and the catcher in the way that it was very difficult for him to see that the ball would skip that far away. Then went on with the line, "it is easy to criticize from the stands or the press box...." kinda like how he criticizes soriano at every opportunity.

theriot is the worst white baserunner in baseball.

Why are you not enjoying this? I hate the people that call out those that are negative, because I am that way well over half the time, but your thoughts about this team seem to be particularly negative. Teams slump all the time. The Cubs have done it several times this year, only to bounce back and score 7-8 runs for a good stretch. I just hate it when we are losing, it chews up my insides. Believe me Ive enjoyed this season a great deal. I love this team, probably the best in my lifetime. I just hate it when they go long stretches without scoring. like four innings.
-
you're right, we should score 5.5 runs every game since we average that. i guess i can't blame you for not having a clue what a good baseball team looks like, though. When did I say we weren't good? I do recognize that we are the best team in the NL, but that wont stop me from complaining on a game to game basis. Its built into my soul. sounds like a miserable existence.
-
that should have been fontenot ph-ing.

Go **** yourself. yikes.
