  1. He must have sat down next to Aaron Miles, eh? Haha, the presence of Aaron Miles is enough to make the players around him to suck as well
  2. He started the game out beautifully, what happened to him in the dugout?
  3. This guy walked 6 over 5 innings in his last outing. The Cubs should be more patient.
  4. Dear gameday, Rich Harden does not throw a slider.
  5. If I had 24 of my teammates in close proximity to me, I wouldn't sweat it too much. I wouldn't trust guys like Juan "100 lbs" Pierre protecting me from Fielder
  6. cst_cubs: "Lilly threw a side today. Lou says he's ahead of schedule."
  7. That looks really painful, I cringed when he fell down
  8. I figured this would be the likely lineup if Theriot was out. I don't think it's the fact that he's playing SS. It's just that for 3 years straight Lou has shown that the 2 spot is one of the least important in his lineup. It tends to go to a non-power hitter that is better than the non-power hitter in the 8 spot. If Soto had been in the lineup tonight, Miles would have been batting 8th (and probably Fontenot 2nd). With Hill in the 8th spot, Lou would rather have Fontenot's power in the 7th spot which leaves Miles for 2nd. I don't agree with it at all (IMO, the 2nd spot is a lot more important than the 6th/7th spots) but Lou has consistently shown that he cares more about the 6th and many times 7th spots. You could be right, but Lou has had the tendency to go CF-SS-1B-3B-RF-LF-2B-C-P ever since Soriano was moved to the 6 spot
  9. That was 3 innings ago. I know, I just happened to open MLB.com and saw it on the front page. Well, then it didn't just happen, you just happened to notice. Sorry for failing at english
  10. This "whoever plays shortstop hits second, even though he has what's probably a negative OBP" crap needs to stop.
  11. That was 3 innings ago. I know, I just happened to open MLB.com and saw it on the front page.
  12. Giants catcher Eli Whiteside just hit his first career home run, which happened to be with the bases loaded.
  13. I haven't heard any news, which is a good thing I guess. Oh and yay I'm gonna get to 3000 posts this evening, probably in this thread
  14. Swing away, boys! Except for you, Hill. I'd rather have Hill swing and try to make contact than strike out looking at a meatball down the middle
  15. There is nothing in this world or the next that could make me feel bad for the Mets or their fans. I haven't been a Cubs fan long enough to develop a hatred for the Mets. The Cardinals are the only team that I hate
  16. I feel bad for the Mets. Their fans must be desperate by now. Every time they get a player back, 2 more go down.
  17. Nelson Figuerroa has now been more productive in one game than Aaron Miles has been for half a season.
  18. At least Fontenot did something good every once in a while. Now we have 3 auto-outs in the line-up again. No, wait, let me take that back. 2 auto-outs. 'Cuz you now, the pitcher might get a hit or walk.
  19. Aramis is pretty close to history: only 86 RBI short of the 1000 mark, so he'll probably get there sometime next season.
  20. Woah, that was only Wrights 8th HR of the season? Didn't he hit like 30 a season consistently for the past 5 seasons or so?
  21. This raises the question again: wjy the hell is Guz still in for the 9th?
  22. Weird he only seems to do that when in the leadoff spot. KEEP HIM THERE LOU!!!
