  1. DeRosa hits into a 5-4-3 broken bat DP
  2. A 1200 OPS in the PCL is meaningless. certainly not as good as Lofton's .714 OPS in the majors
  3. FYI, the Cubs would be up 12-1 right now if Brian Roberts was playing leadoff
  4. Weeks would NEVER have hit that HR if Brian Roberts were leading off
  5. As I know others that make the counterpoint. It's humorous as to their points as well. It's not just Riot...it's the Riot/Soriano combo at the top. Soriano needs dropped. Fuko needs moved up. Hell, with DLee no longer hitting for power, some feel maybe he could be a leadoff hitter w/ his strong OBP. Derrek Lee hit 16 HR with a .554 SLG in the 2nd half last year, but don't let facts get in the way of your arguments
  6. i love how you think Soriano is a disaster
  7. What more can he do/prove in the minors? Let him take his lumps and see if he can mke the turn to the bigs. That would be true if he were on the Royals or Nats, but 100 years later, we dont need a guy trying to prove himself. We need an established leadoff hitter. Sure, idealy, Theriot would be replaced, but there isnt anyone available that can play short and leadoff. established is the new word for old, eh> also, how much would you love seeing Kenny's Pierre/Jock-esque noodle arm in right field. that would be AMAZING
  8. No, but Center field is. I know, hes a left fielder, but surely, with his speed he could handle center, or put Fuku there and put Kenny in Rt. he's also 100 years old and about 10% the fielder that Pie is also, what more does Pie have to prove in AAA?
  9. local ESPNRadio just said Self, Gillespie and Tubby Smith were candidates. none of those make any sense at all (in terms of leaving their current jobs)
  10. Does that mean an incidental facemask will be no penalty or will be a 15-yarder also? 15 yards. it's another blow against defenses across the league. i'm surprised they haven't made it only 5 yards to get a first down yet (with 7 downs to do it)
  11. The Cubs didn't care until the rooftop owners began meddling and held up the building permit when they first started planning the bleacher expansion, as they were afraid the expansion would interfere with their views, and hence, their profits. The rooftop owners brought it on themselves. Exactly. Also, while thats the rooftop owner's property, Wrigley and what goes on inside it belongs to the Cubs and they have every right to block that view if they want to (barring any crazy Chicago zoning laws that I don't know about). It's like complaining about me putting up curtains in my house because I don't want nosy neighbors looking in. Yeah, I agree. The Cubs absolutely have the right to modify their property to block a view. However, if the Cubs choose NOT to block the view then the neighbors are still entitled to enjoy the view from the property as they see fit. no one is arguing that point though
  12. my dog's name is Mojo, but we had him before MojoPin joined NSBB Have you ever lost your Mojo? :grin: :) he's actually named after Homer's helper monkey PRAY FOR MOJO
