maybe we can have Bonds in LF and Floyd in RF. Who could we get for CF who can't run or play defense at all?

idk, my bff pie?

PLACE YER BETS! When will the Cubs be back below .500?
Derwood replied to Sammy Sofa's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
My hope is that a team wins this division with under 80 wins -
a/s/l?

Barry's been on base 550 more times in 1400 less PAs. i'll take extra bases over walks you're also taking a hell of a lot of outs, which is why you're wrong here. i'm talking about a gifted athlete getting to 2nd and 3rd more often rather than a guy with no knees who is slower than cliff floyd walking to first in hopes that ray durham knocks him in so in other words, you really don't know baseball. Barry Bonds has far better numbers than most people who have ever played the game. Go look up his career numbers. I'm aware of his numbers. I'm looking at them as we speak. I'm trying to put his numbers in to context. But thanks for generalizing my baseball knowledge.

Derrek Lee in particular has been watching pitches right down the middle. Work in progress. When you have been told to swing at everything for four years it takes a while to adjust to a philosophy of "wait for something good to hit". and that's my point. I don't think Perry really wants the hitters to let good pitches go by, but they may not have the skills or at least haven't learned enough pitch recognition to make Perry's philosophy work really well. For the most part, our hitters are much more patient it seems than last season. On the other hand, often they end up 1-2 or 0-2 after looking at some really hittable pitches...and often this occurs in times where we need a hit or at least good contact. since when do All Stars like Derrek Lee and Aramis Ramirez need to learn how to hit? you're twisting the words, perhaps intentionally. They are learning a new philosophy, one that affects instincts, which cannot be changed over night. when did they start teaching this new philosophy? just recently? if so, why? they were fine. at the beginning of the year? then how do you account for June/July (and the sudden regression from those months)?

It wasn't, but none you you guys are really that funny. Little wonder this site is considered the home of teens, by many including those in the media and at the team. I won't waste another second(I know none of you care) responding to what he said. did someone get sand in their....

Not making outs isn't useful when your team sucks so bad as to not every drive you in

Hank Aaron had over 900 more total bases than Barry

If Pena doesn't like playing once then sitting for a few days, this is not the place for him to be

i would love to hear your thoughts on Pete Rose

If A-Rod fails to pass Barry down the road, it's going to be a LONG time before someone breaks that record
-
this team isn't going to score 2 runs and strike out 13 times every game from now thru September, so yes, you should expect more

wow, 26,000 compared to 3,800 yesterday. Can't really imagine a grass roots voting movement to get Elinore through Well, I know that Elinore was supported by Fark.com and Desipio...so it depends if we went more nuts than they did. ooh, yeah, that's stiff competition. Fark.com people are nuts

for the sake of nit-picking, are you basing Olerud's (or anyone's) "not making outs" solely on his OBP? (ie a .447 OBP = not making outs 44.7% of the time)?
