That Edwin Jackson for Matt Joyce trade isn't looking so hot for Tampa these days -
Detroit announcers puzzled why Lou has loaded the lineup with lefties when Jackson dominates lefties. Maybe I should send them a link to the Lou is an Idiot thread....

effin' A, this is a big park

damn, no HD Cubs feed on EI, just Tigers

Harold Reynolds shows off his stupidity
Derwood replied to woodprior04's topic in General Baseball Talk
Wrong Consider this: INNING A: Batter #1 hits a HR, followed by Batters 2 thru 4 grounding out. In the inning, the team has a SLG of 1.000 and scored 1 run INNING B: Batters 1 thru 4 have walked. The team has an OBP of 1.000 and scored 1 run, but there are still no outs. OBP is more valuable than SLG. -
And we think weve been plagued by injuries
Derwood replied to Little Slide Rooter's topic in General Baseball Talk
and yet they basically have the same record as the Cubs -
Sure. I'm assuming that the pinch-hitter would have been Miles, who would have not have gotten on-base. A fairly safe bet I think.... And to be clear, I'm not defending Lou for leaving Dempster in; it was idiotic considering the pitch count, the heat and humidity, and the score. I'm just saying that in this particular instance, it didn't seem to matter.
-
Sure it did. If he pulled him for a pinch hitter then maybe we score that inning. Then he wouldnt have come in the following inning and let runners on - who knows if his replacement would have. It definitely mattered. I meant giving up the 2nd run
-
it turns out that it didn't really matter
-
anyone else have the Braves broadcast on both EI feeds? EDIT: Nevermind, they have the home team on the visitors feed and vice versa

Pujols - Time to Give Him the Bonds' Treatment ?
Derwood replied to MembersOnlyJacket's topic in General Baseball Talk
he leads the majors in OPS, but has Ben Zobrist (FTH?)hot on his tail -
it really never took root over there because people were just posting here instead. The TD Derby contest I ran a couple seasons ago was fun though (despite only about a dozen people playing)

I'm sorry, but I just can't overlook the irony of you making this statement. better luck next time What is that ? Are you saying that you consider it a matter of luck when you say something relative and to the point ???? I wishing you luck in overlooking it next time ;)

this is the most "much ado about nothing" argument we've had in some time. seriously, who cares?
-
I wouldn't be surprised. But the guy has been around for what, 25 years? He's got to be in his 60's. I also wouldn't be surprised if he was planned for a long time, or a health issue. he's been the union rep since 1986 I believe

2009 HR Derby Discussion & Transactions

I'm within 50! :banghead: -
you can kill him, but two more will take his place

Indeed they did. DeRosa got a standing ovation as a pinch hitter, in a tie game, in the 8th inning on Saturday. Anyone who took part in that should be barred from Wrigley for life. That was embarrassing. If by embarrassing you mean absolutely awesome, than I completely agree with you. Seriously, why is that embarrassing? I think it's outstanding. He had already been "ovated" the day before. No reason to give him a standing O every game. As a position player the ovation in his first PA makes sense. Applauding him the next game in a big situation is pretty ridiculous. The guy was a nice player for the Cubs for 2 years. That's it. He was no hero or superstar. Considering that the vast majority of the people attending the second game were not there at the first game, i think it's perfectly fine that they choose to ovate him
-
That would be a terrible idea. Why's that? he'll be 35
-
I'm guessing Bradley will get a day off. CF Fukudome 3B Fontenot 1B Lee RF Hoffpauir LF Fox C Soto SS Blanco 2B Miles I hope Fukudome has his running shoes on.....the corner OF defense in that lineup is BRUTAL

Vazquez is a K machine. Our offense is a K machine. Not a good combo
