  1. LaTroy learned a lot about being a whiny bitch when he was on the 2004 Cubs (Kings of Whiny Bitchiness)
  2. LOL. business loyalty? ha ha ha ha
  3. Ryan Howard shouldn't even be in the discussion
  4. i really want to call DirecTV and ask them WTF happened to the HD channel, but by the time they fix it, this game will be over
  5. thanks, EI, for cutting off the HD feed of this game after 8 innings.
  6. did anyone else's EI just cut off like the game was over?
  7. Whats wrong with Jeff? He's an inexperienced starting pitcher thrust into a setup role for a contender. Whose defense failed him. wait wait wait, didn't you guys decry me when I booed Cedeno on that Kerry Wood blown save, saying it was Wood's fault for allowing the base runners, not Cedeno's for booting the DP ball?
  8. yikes 115 pitches? Rest that boy till October
  9. Please justify this statement. The more I think about it, the more I believe that having LESS than 11 pitchers is lunacy. You do realize that there are 2 sets or back to back games during the LDS, right? the LDS schedule goes: Game 1 Game 2 Off Day Game 3 Game 4 Off Day Game 5 You only need 4 starters (assuming no one goes on short rest), which leaves you with a 6 man bullpen, which is pretty standard. Two guys in that pen will probably be Marquis and Marshall, both of whom can pitch a lot of innings if the starter gets pulled early. That leaves you with 4 more "specialty" relievers (likely Wood, Cotts, Marmol and Smardzjia). That's plenty. If Gaudin is healthy and reliable, I'm fine with an 11th pitcher, but that's the max.
  10. in the 5 game LDS, any more than 10 pitchers is just lunacy
  11. it looked weird in color with the different sources. the creepy sky was due to the fact that it was the only photo of the skyline I could find from that vantage point
  12. I photoshopped this up last time the situation arose: http://www.simleaguebaseball.com/derwood/wrigleycabrini.jpg
  13. of COURSE they are playing the Indians at Wrigley and not Cleveland :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:
  14. When a team doesn't succeed for 50 years, it becomes some kind of curse. I'm not sure what the Indians curse is. the curse of the offensive mascot?
  15. The Twins are doing a mighty good job of pissing away their chances
  16. I don't want to see more than one, two at most, regulars rested per day. Too much rest and guys get flat/rusty.
  17. In doing what is right for the Cubs, that may mean resting people down the stretch, or playing to win, depending on who he thinks is the best first round matchup for the team.
  18. Did you just open it again to see what my response to you was? How'd those wasted 30 seconds taste? Bitter? no, because your comment is on a new page! PWN3d!!111!!1ELEVEN!!!11!
  19. I really hate the "AL Central" arm of the inter-league rotating schedule
