It's one inning. He has yet to have a really good outing. RAMMY! Agreed, but I think given that he hasn't been horrible plus his games at the end of this last year he'd be a better option over Marquis, especially with how cheap he is. I understand. I'm just upset because Prior isn't ready. We're settling for Miller. That isn't Miller's fault, that ball is in Prior's court. Miller has been much better than Prior and deserves the spot over him.

Interesting to see Floyd battle a Lefty here...
-
Apparently it is spring training for the camera men too.

-
Wow, Zito with a 87MPH belt high fastball. Pretty much begging for it to be hit out.
-
I think Miller could be just fine as the #5 guy, keeping the ball down in the zone and hitting the corners pretty well so far today.
-
He hit 93...Wooo... :? Thats a start...still a looooooooong way to go.
-
SD radio guys is calling Prior's curveballs "spinners", saying they don't have much bite to them... Is that accurate?
-
That is so odd.... I'm not iomplying anything, but that simply is not normal. Just adding to the sarcasm :wink: LOL, what's not normal? Bad joke.... Sorry...nevermind

I think people are just becoming desensitized to DUI offenses. Inevitably the argument always comes up, "Well, he didn't do anything nobody else has ever done." Not EVERYONE has. I'm rather sensitive to this recently though. The school I teach at had a student killed recently, a junior, after being hit by a drunk driver. The real sad part is that the person that hit him also went to the same school, they were a senior.

It's not that risky of a market. And the more guys that come over the more teams are able to learn about who can make it here. They spend a ton on American amateurs who are an even bigger risk. Except that these amateurs are 18-20 years old. There is an investment in the youth plus the talent. With a lot of the Japanese imports they are often either in their primes, or a little bit past it. Where would you rather spend the money?

Hendry was hardly raked over the coals. The majority of fans and media paid no attention to the Kaz situation. And I don't see how that situation has anything to do with potential future moves. They did increase scouting efforts in Asia. They don't have a great history there, but I dont' see how anybody could say they'd never be a serious player over there. There was quite a bit of frustration shown over here when it was clear the Cubs weren't interested, I wasn't talking about the media. I just think it is a very risky market. People will look at this guy's numbers and want him, they're great numbers. But you never know if they will handle the transition.
-
Remember how Hendry was raked over the coals for not showing interest in Kaz Matsui? I don't see the Cubs ever being a serious player in these Japanese negotiations, just based off of recent history.
-
Made it interesting at least... Oh well
-
IU can't throw it in the ocean right now. I watched Eric Gordon socre 39 points in a semi-state game this afternoon, too bad he can't play yet. I know UCLA is excellent defensively, but this is crazy.

Wow...read this about Illinois... http://www.sportsline.com/collegebasketball/story/10064832 Preach on brother

Sosa Has Arrived in Rangers Camp
Bruno7481 replied to vance_the_cubs_fan's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I appreciate what Sosa did for the Cubs, but I don't really consider myself a "fan" of his. At the same time I don't ridicule, or think less of, those that do still hold him in high regard. I lost a lot of respect for him after the bat incident. The whole, "I picked up the wrong bat, the bat I use in BP to show off for the fans" excuse was comical. I do know that he was not very well-liked, or even respected by a lot of his teammates. That comes form a former teammate who has no reason to make it up. I don't doubt that he has done good things in his life. He was decent to me the one time I met him. His public image is mostly an act though, although he is not the lone offender in that reagard in our world today. -
Who the hell selected Randle as a Preseaon Wooden Award finalist?
-
Or, maybe they were just livid about an obvious foul that wasn't called just prior to that. C'mon... He's had the same type of reaction on every foul tonight. Its not just tonight either. Randle is terrible
-
Shaun Pruitt never thinks he commits a foul. One of the biggest babies in college basketball.
-
If Sosa is your God, then I question your religion :D
-
I think it is more than likely that is what you will see. I need to see more than some Spring Training success to make me think he can have a decent year, after missing a whole season.
-
I don't dislike Sosa, but like a few others I don't have much respect for him any more. It started with the corked bat, and then the fiasco that was the end of 2004.
-
Check his bat!!!!
