    You can't look at every baseball statistic in a vacuum. Do they factor in a great rightfielder he's playing next to and a horrible left fielder he's playing next to who admittedly still isn't playing 100%? Do you or the defensive metrics know the scouting report against an opposing hitter, the wind, the situation, how the pitcher is going to approach a hitter in a particular at bat? Yes, statistics are nice and give you a good barometer but there are many other factors to consider. Again, considering the guy is a platoon player I really don't think it's much to complain about. yea truffle computers can't watch the games

    Edmonds' defense is fine. He/Johnson can't cover the ground of Pie but they're fine. Only glaring weakness in the defense? Is Soriano so bad defensively we just don't even count him as a defender then? Is he just neutral out there - sometimes helping the Cubs and sometimes helping the other team's offense? edmonds' defense seems fine because he mostly catches the balls that he gets to. the problem is that he is so slow that he can't get to much. he's one of the worst-fielding centerfielders in the game at this point in his career. The defensive play of a platoon center fielder is/should be the least of the Cubs' concerns right now. No, he doesn't cover a lot of ground but he has a pretty live arm yet, is smart and positions himself well. He is certainly not a defensive problem by any means. Edmonds has never been a burner but he allegedly worked on his speed all offseason and is faster than he's been in the last 3-4 years. lol edmonds does not position himself well

    Not really surprising. Steve Slaton is gone as is Rich Rodriguez. Brian Brohm went from a favorite for the Heisman this past season to nothing with Petrino leaving. And if WVU struggles as a team with Rodriguez gone, White's shot at a Heisman will disappear. And since Oklahoma is much more likely to be a 10-2 or better team than WVU is, Bradford's chances at a Heisman are probably better as well. Schmitt will be missed much more than Slaton. By the end of his junior year, Slaton was a lot less effective than Devine. We also return all of our offensive lineman

    I remember Joe Carter complaining about Delino getting stuck in the a hole. i didn't realize DeShields played at the same time as Edmonds

    Can't decide between the vertical jump (basketball is the sport I play the most) or the 4.2 40 (just because)
  15. Vanilla Ice
    that's what happens when you combine the 4.2 40 and the 48 inch vertical
  16. Vanilla Ice
    I am not worried about the Central at all

    I can say how I'd do it, assuming Soriano can't leave the leadoff slot. LF Soriano SS Theriot RF Fukudome 3B Ramirez C Soto 1B Hoff 2B DeRosa CF Johnson/Edmonds Ideally, RF Fukudome 2B DeRosa LF Soriano 3B Ramirez C Soto 1B Hoff CF Edmonds/Johnson SS Theriot I like your lineup for the most part. And i have not been a Theriot defender. In fact, I have been the exact opposite. But Theriot should be batting ahead of our CF's at this point

    DLee should not be included if Miguel Cabrera is not
  19. Vanilla Ice
    Was he signed at his trailer down by the river? yes it was, while I was drinking one of his Coors Lights. I had 4 of them at one time, but I can only seem to locate 1 now. thank you for your bid, do I hear $4.5 million? ill give you 1000 million schrute bucks
  20. Vanilla Ice
    He has not gotten hurt but he was getting much less effective
  21. Vanilla Ice
    (Im hoping or else I am going to look like an idiot)
  22. Vanilla Ice
    US
  23. Vanilla Ice
    I don't find them offensive. but i can see where they are coming from
  24. Vanilla Ice
    i know it was sarcasm but still our offense has been the best in the majors practically everyday this season so no reason to through comments like that out he was making fun of wrigley23
  25. Vanilla Ice
    I want Hosmer to fall If not, Jake Odirizzi Then Casey Kelly
