  1. inserted a now-healthy willits into my lineup. i'm pretty sure that's ok...let me know if it's not.
  2. understatement of the century... really? because when i looked up soriano at baseball reference, i coulda swore lenny was one of his comparables.
  3. honestly, are cedeno's supposed bunting/baserunning deficiencies really that important? cedeno's a better defender, and i would think that would more than make up for any bunting/running differences. and if you'll remember the early part of this season, theriot was a butcher in the OF...plus, a shortage of guys who can play the OF is the least of the cubs' concerns.
  4. i'm not saying he's not worth the headaches, but i bet he's not best buds w/ everyone on the team.
  5. i really wonder what zambrano's teammates think of him. do you think lee appreciates his public backing of young? or do you think the rest of the team likes him talking about siging w/ the white sox/cardinals? or all the talk he made about individual awards? or the punching people in the face? or the grand gestures he makes toward guys on the field?

    SHANE

    for the love of all things holy, please acknowledge my existence...i'm begging you.
  7. honestly, someone pull an executive order or something and get this man in the nsbb tourney!
  8. actually, there's plenty of fair statistical comparison...and it all says that you're wrong...but hilarious.
  9. well, like i said in my rejection, you're a game ahead of me in the division and i know you need a closer. if you think i'm going to do your team a favor, you're crazy. if i'm going to make a trade w/ you, i have to feel like i'm really, really getting the better end of the deal. think about it from my perspective...why would i help fill a hole for one of my biggest rivals when all i'm getting in return is a guy (beltre) i wouldn't even be able to use? and capps has outscored rivera by a huge margin this season. I'm laughing now cuz Matt just showed me what you offered him. That has to be one of the worst deals I've ever seen.. lol! he seemed like he was in a generous mood that day, so i took a shot.
  10. deal. if you won't pretend that theriot's success for one month will definitely translate to him being good for the rest of the season.
  11. boy, if the cubs' fifth best starter truly was one of the top 10 starters in the NL, the cubs would be really good.
  12. wow, that's ridiculous. no way i'm voting for zambrano.
  13. well, like i said in my rejection, you're a game ahead of me in the division and i know you need a closer. if you think i'm going to do your team a favor, you're crazy. if i'm going to make a trade w/ you, i have to feel like i'm really, really getting the better end of the deal. think about it from my perspective...why would i help fill a hole for one of my biggest rivals when all i'm getting in return is a guy (beltre) i wouldn't even be able to use? and capps has outscored rivera by a huge margin this season.
  14. the cubs, on the other hand, have a tendency to really start kickin' a right around september and totally not choke.
  15. Thats nice to know, but too bad most of that is from his unbelievable start. yeah, and the worst part about it is those wins don't even count on the cubs' record now. thanks for nothing, rich hill.
  16. and i release gaudin just in time for him to flirt with a no-no against the yankees.
  17. and i'm interested in trading one of my RP, but not to one of my biggest rivals in my division and not for a second rate prospect or adrian beltre's lukewarm corpse. :D
  18. ninth try is a charm.
  19. the walks and the hit batter were the worst of what he did today. the homer to mench was really the only ball that was hit super hard. the foul balls are just a mystery. it doesn't tell me that he had bad stuff, as he wasn't really getting hit hard...he did have a bunch of k's and three of the hits he gave up were infield hits/pop-ups. plus, he was around the zone enough to give up 39 foul balls, so it wasn't like he was extremely wild. he never looked awful (walking people/giving up bombs), but he never really looked comfortable either. just a weird day all around for him.
  20. is it too late to get this guy in the nsbb tourney?
  21. No it's not a joke. i don't know who you are or where you came from, but i would like to play fantasy baseball with you for large amounts of money.
  22. do you really think trading the last man off the bench that gets one ab every three days is going to upset a winning streak? come on.
  23. injured willits to the bench, fontenot to U.
  24. i'm just glad rich hill didn't ruin the cubs' season.
