  1. and my point was less about comparing them statistically and more about people clamoring over a guy who is maybe 5th or 6th best on his own team. latent racism? who knows, but there is no reason at all that Theriot should be selling jerseys at such a high rate when he really is just sort of okay. he doesn't even really have much personality
  2. It doesn't average $18 per. even more reason for them to be wrong
  3. people like light-hitting white middle infielders. i'm sure eckstein sold some jerseys last year too
  4. Soriano's contract is backloaded, so though it averages $18mil/year, he's not making that much this season
  5. knowing Lou's M.O., Fox will sit vs. a righty. I expect Jones in RF and Pie in CF
  6. he's in a slump
  7. the problem with not calling Soto up until after 9/1 is that if he goes nuts hitting, great, but he can't be on the postseason roster
  8. Since the Cubs still have 3 against the Brewers and are less than 3 behind them, can't they theoretically have a magic number as well? They can still have a magic number regardless of how many times they play the brewers because they have the same number of losses as the brew crew. and, as such, there isn't a magic number for either team that doesn't include at least one loss by the other team (because if both teams won out, they would finish tied for first place)
  9. and the Cubs are 17-8 when he is in the starting lineup! Specious statistics FTW!
  10. i also hate magic numbers for non-first place teams. the way i think of it, the magic number is "one win more than the most wins the second place team can possibly get".
  11. at this point, we can only have a magic number because we've played fewer games than the first place team
  12. i probably won't participate because i'll just get mad when everyone's list includes 89% players pre-1960
  13. the oncedeadbutnowquitealivebirds
  14. Trash talking Cardinals fans are generally frowned upon here, but its wolf so I guess thats ok? Lighten up, wolf is fun. This series is gonna be like a fight between two skinny teenagers. Probably neither deserves to win, but it'll be scrappy, ugly, and fun to watch. hey, i was a skinny teenager once!
  15. Didn't you want DeRosa out of the lineup today btw? we've been over that. read the whole thread if you have the time. it's quite entertaining, and stars some of your favorite posters!
  16. I don't love everyone and that song is crap. Go Cubs!
  17. I'm just doing PBP for those who don't have gameday and are at work and I got peronally attacked for no reason earlier, obviously by children. care to quote the personal attack for those who might have missed it, because i don't recall one
  18. well if there had been a mod on site for the past 30 minutes or so he would have been banned by now
  19. good for Piggy. happy to see a smooth debut
  20. Was that called for? Way to try starting things, just let it go for Christs sake. Kind of like saying "DeRosa is my new butt buddy" and having 15 posts in a row about it, grow up kid. you can't tell the difference between the two posts? Come on kid, grow up Now you don't even know who you're replying too, your brain is more underdeveloped than I thought. :banned:
