    Last August Sean Marshall's ERA was 6.21 over 27.2 innings in six starts. He'd pitched 70 innings, and pretty good innings, leading up to that, starting in late May. Now, I suspect another year of experience will generate some extra knowledge and endurance, but banking on him to be effective from mid-May through October 2008 would be a foolish gamble. It is reasonable to prefer to live with an ERA around 5 and maybe better from Jason Marquis (4.45 in April) up until July, when they think they'll have both more knowledge of their younger pitchers, and more confidence that they won't fade before the end of the year. Why turn a bunch of young pitchers into Jason Marquis? A bet on Marquis to be an average bottom of the rotation starter for the first half of the season is a pretty good bet. One that is actually paying off. They are 3-3 in his starts. In one victory they bailed him out. In one loss, a good outing was wasted. .500 in games by a number 5 starter suggests something dramatically better than .500 in games by the starters who are better than he is. :facepalm:

    Josh Hancock tried that last year, but this Edmonds guy appears to have body double.

    I bet the bar owners on Halsted are excited.

    IBL, and Hendry can kiss my arse.
  5. GoCubsGo1679625768
    of course you could always invest in improving the offense itself, so it doesn't have to settle for so many FG's. This deal sucks. Kickers are like MLB relievers...very volatile.

    lol...Randy Wolfe is such garbage.

    The folks at DodgerBlues.com have some kinds words for Adruw nsfw http://www.dodgerblues.com/fanforum/nfphpbb/viewtopic.php?t=13091&start=48

    What a stupid signing.
  9. GoCubsGo1679625768
    typical Riensdorf crap. I can't wait till he joins Wirtz in the grave.

    SInce Beane is always in "sell" mode..what would it take to get Joe Blanton out of Oakland?
  11. GoCubsGo1679625768
    Hopefully that will put an end to the "Next Jordan" nonsense.
  12. GoCubsGo1679625768
    Reinsdorf is scum.
  13. GoCubsGo1679625768
    The Bulls won't be able to get a superstar until their piece of sheet owner mans up and pays the luxury tax. At least with Pringles there is a good chance the value of the current assests on this team skyrocket.
  14. GoCubsGo1679625768
    On realgm, I read a rumor that the Bulls "supposedly" made an official offer today, and NY is out of the running...they are focused on Mark Jackson and Avery Johnson.
  15. GoCubsGo1679625768
    I'll preface my post by saying that I have been hard on Paxson as any other Bull's fan of late...that being said...I'm pretty sure if this deal falls through..it is on Reinsdorf. The man is truley a plague on this franchise. This is the same cheapass that told Michael Jordan to his face...how much he regretted paying him that record 30 million dollar deal.
  16. GoCubsGo1679625768
    As the the players...I think Noah and Thabo would benefit the most......I would say Tyrus..but he needs to stop doggin it on the fast breaks. Hinrich would have to go, IMO. I really can't see him running this offense. Ben Gordon? I'm iffy on that one. Nocioni? Adios....he is the killer of fast breaks with his stupid shots. If D'Antoni is hired..the Bulls should probably go after Collinson of UCLA.(nevermind..he is going back to school)
  17. GoCubsGo1679625768
    I would be overjoyed if the Bulls got D'Antoni. Even though at first glance it doesn't seem like the tradional Paxon guy...I think Pax realizes he is at a crossroads here regarding his tenure as Bulls GM..so I think he would make a bold move like D'Antoni. Since Skiles was hired by Milwakee...does that take part of his Bulls salary off the books? I can't see penny pincher Rien$dorf paying both Skiles and D'ANtoni.

    Sandberg is a selfish slimeball. Stay out of Chicago, go manage the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. Slimeball who cheated on poor Cindy. Cindy's an awesome lady. Family comes first. Some people never learn.
  19. GoCubsGo1679625768
    I think a lot of us would, but what about a Greene for Pie+Cedeno? or Greene+Prospect for Pie+Cedeno+Murton? Sure. Cedeno is going to shart the bed any day now..IMO.
  20. GoCubsGo1679625768
    When 2008 is all said and done, it will be anothe 800+ Away OPS for Greene. I'd do a Pie for Greene swap in a heartbeat.
  21. GoCubsGo1679625768
    oh, cheer up negative nacy's...that Matt Camp guy we got from the Dodgers is gonna be a stud!
  22. GoCubsGo1679625768
    Still trolling huh?
  23. GoCubsGo1679625768
    Good to see you're still a trolling jackass. I'm not really sure how that is being a troll, but whatever floats your boat. Outside of being 100% false...the intent of a post like that (on a Cubs board) is just to inflame people.
  24. GoCubsGo1679625768
    What risk are the Rays taking? Even if Logoria plays to his floor, his contract will still be next to nothing.
