  1. Hopefully Vitters doesn't cut into Barney's PT.
  2. This whole concept of "gotta put in the closer" needs to go away, in general.
  3. LaHair + Johnson for Sheets?
  4. "I don't know who he is but I'll bet he doesn't have a very good work ethic."
  5. The [expletive]??? He looked safe by a good step and a half.
  6. I agree, he doesn't look right in a cubs uniform. He still looks like a red with that greasy mullet and crusty facial hair.
  7. I wish LaRussa would just cop to it and say "yea, that's right, I didn't choose Cueto because he's a punkass [expletive] who kicked my player in the head and forced him into retirement." I'd respect him a lot more for that. But this "he's pitching on Sunday" stuff is weak-sauce, especially considering it's not an allowable reason to pass a pitcher over for the ASG. The Phillips argument is a joke. The guy is WAY overrated here in Cincy. Even dopey Reds fans here are realizing his offensive numbers are pedestrian and are resorting to repeating the "gold glove second baseman" line ad-nauseum.
  8. So the word is that Jeff Kent is going to be on the next season of Survivor airing this September... http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/mlb-big-league-stew/jeff-kent-survivor-philippines-report-says-170459724--mlb.html
  9. It only took two years for Starlin Castro to have a better grasp on the English language than Ozzie Guillen.
  10. Marmol's back, just in time for the trade deadline.
  11. It's really infuriating that the Lees and the Thomes are coveted like they are, however Soriano is considered borderline worthless.
  12. You are surprised that the Cubs didn't give up prospects to acquire a 33 year old player whose numbers have deteriorated and is a FA after next season? I'm not sure the Cubs would have had to give up prospects, considering all it took was a junkballer and a 25th guy /devil's advocate Even if we could have got him for say Coleman and DeWitt, I'd just assume put Vitters at 3rd, or if he's not ready by then, give Stewart another year. Every appearance of "just assume" should come with a three-day ban. Just mind blowing.
  13. "I've gotta be honest, Jed, we were on the fence about Soriano, but when you sweetened the pot with Jeff Baker, we couldn't walk away."
