  1. oh, for the love of..,.
  2. oh Jason Kendall. how I hate thee
  3. i'd rather have a lazy .900 OPS player than a hard working .700 OPS player
  4. Why? I've been against his signing from day 1 and he has not yet proven me wrong for thinking like this. The great news is, we should see a steady decline in his currently overall slightly above average play for the next 6 years. For the record, I would probably take 50% of the outfielders in baseball over Soriano. If you include salary in the discussion, that would bump up to like 80%. he only lead the team in HR and SLG last year. what a bum. he's not great, but it's not like he's Juan Pierre out there
  5. having already burned hart and wuertz, yes
  6. you guys are hilarious (re: Soriano)
  7. Suddenly generous outside corner by the ump this inning
  8. jersey, i know that in general, the Cubs suck at getting on base. but it also seems epidemic in many of their losses to continually to get a baaserunner on every inning and not score. they seem to either score in bunches or not at all
  9. I wouldn't go that far, yet. Well, they are. I've been saying that for awhile. They have an awesome leadoff man that should have a .400 OBP, 30 SB and 15-20 HRs at the end of the year. They have two hitters that will hit 40-50 HRs this year at 3 and 4. They have Corey Hart who will probably be a 20-20 guy with good OBP. Their only weak spot on offense is catcher, and Kendall looks comfortable hitting behind the pitcher. As far as their pitching, ours might be slightly better right now, but their ceiling is much higher. I'd take Sheets, Gallardo, Suppan, Parra, Villenueva over our mess any day. Sheets and Z are about even. Sheets is probably better when healthy, Z tends to be erratic. Our bullpen is better, but not by as much as last yaer, and their defense is better by moving Braun to LF. Not on par with ours, but again not a huge disparity as last year. Oh and in 23 games, they will get a very good 30 HR potential hitter back into their lineup. Injuries are the only things that will slow Milwaukee down this year. if Rickie Weeks ends up with a .400 OBP i'll stop watching baseball
  10. That is very definitely not "typical Cubs". sure it is. it happened all the time last year. runners on but never driving them in. now Wuertz is sucking too. SWEET
  11. Tigers 0-2, they're totally screwed too
  12. typical Cubs: get a baserunner on every inning but score just 1 run
