    Hey Kevin Millah, Elton John called, he wants his voice back.

    The Cubs didn't have to trade three young pitchers for Edmonds.....? Does that count as something being "optismistic" about Edmonds?
  3. RedFlash
    until he shows that he's not completely washed up, edmonds should not hit ahead of a guy OPS'ing over .800 Agreed. Reputation aside, Edmonds has been declining for a few yrs now, and he must prove he's worthy to hit above 8th i the lineup. But to be fair, if he gets to hit between ARam and Soto and DeRosa, it's possible Edmonds can still be semi-productive (.250-.260/.330/.410 productive). I'm not holding my breathe or anything, but I really hope he is productive, but I am not banking on it. So he should bat 8th, until he prove otherwise.

    Why isn't James Patrick Edmonds up there? He would be my favorite.

    Come on, let this happen. I mean I have "Gosh darn it", "To heck in a hand basket", "Horse hockey turd" all lined up for this thread.

    I want the Cubs to FINISHED THEM OFF, now.
  7. RedFlash
    Let's get those runs back now, Cobs.

    Earth TO FRIGGIN CUBS, this is the dang Padres....not the blasted Red Sox. Please finished them, NOW.

    I'm getting the same message periodically.

    The Rays are without a doubt, the most talented (not saying they are the best team, but based on pure talent) team in the AL East. It wouldn't surprise me, if they make the playoffs---at the expense of the Yanks and/or the Red Sox :lol: :beg: ---within the next yr or so.

    WTF REED JOHNSON?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!? I know. They won't even give Pie a courtesy start a day before they option him to AAA. I like Reed Johnson, and he is what he is.....a 4th OF, strictly a platoon player, but I don't get the fetish of him starting against RHers.
  12. RedFlash
    I remember telling my brother a few yrs ago, that it would be a cold day in hades, that I would ever root for Edmonds. I won't root against Edmonds, and for his sake, he better hit from the moment he steps into the Cubs clubhouse, or the fans of Chicago will be on him like Kirstie Alley on a cupcake. But right now, :( at the thought of seeing Edmonds in Chicago.
  13. RedFlash
    There's also rumors of the Braves interested in reuinited the "Big Three" for a kind of farewell tour. So if Maddux gets dealt, I see him going to the Braves.
  14. RedFlash
    Gotta get my "You suck" chant vocals warmed up....

    I know alot of people are considering this game a loss, due to who is pitching for the Padres, but I am not. There are alot of types of games the Cubs have to win, but this one is very important in my eyes. The Cubs have to show they can bounce back from a turrible loss against Estes, and beat Peavy. I know I will be in the minority, but I believe the Cubs will beat Peavy.
  16. RedFlash
    If he doesn't come out hitting, Cubs fans will be on him, like Kirstie Alley on a cupcake. He'll get the Jacques Jones treatment. So, my advice for Jim Edmonds will be to hit, hit, hit till the end of October. But like many, I have low expectations for Edmonds, and it wouldn't surprise me if he isn't released by the end of May. But I find this statement interesting:
  17. RedFlash
    IDK how long Piniella is going to give Edmonds to get going, but if Edmonds continues to slump, I pretty confident Piniella will have him released pretty quickly, and Pie brought back up.
  18. RedFlash
    I think the Cubs offense is more likely to get 3 or so runs off Peavy then the Padres are to get 3 off Lilly. Not because Lilly is a great pitcher, but because if the Padres are not facing a lousy pitcher (Marquis) they'll likely not to score much or at all. I like the Cubs to win 3-1, tomorrow.
  19. RedFlash
    I personally like to thank Jason Marquis for bring his "A" game, and as a "parting gift" I would like to give him an boot to the butt, and a coach seat, behind a crying baby ont he cheapest flight out of Chicago. And offense, I hope you understand you LOST TO FRIGGIN Shawn Estes. This guy isn't even a AAA pitcher... I am going ahead and say it....the Cubs WILL BEAT Jake Peavy.
  20. RedFlash
    That's what I am hoping for. I mean, he can't throw his changeup, if he can't get a good grip on the ball. Hoffman should basically be throwing batting practice in the 9th innings, if the Cubs are smart.
  21. RedFlash
    No he won't. The Cubs are a Top 3 offense (ESPN has the Cubs ranked #1, due to runs scored) in MLB. I doubt Estes is going to hang onto a 1 run lead. Historically, he gives the lead back. The Cubs will win this game.
  22. RedFlash
    Padres are the worst team in baseball offensively, and Marquis gave up 4 runs to them. (But to be fair, Z gave up 3 runs to the same Padres offense). The Cubs are a Top 3 Offense in baseball, so I doubt 1 win is going to beat the Cubs, especially with Estes on the mound. I say the final will be 9-4, Cubs.
  23. RedFlash
    Other teams have no problems DFA'ing highly priced/crappy productive players, but why do the Cubs have that problem? If Hendry and Piniella cannot see the fact that both Hill and Gallagher are better bets for the rotation over Marquis, then the Cubs have two clueless guys running a MLB franchise. Marquis should be DFA, yesterday.
  24. RedFlash
    Lee Elia thinks you should go get a job and see what it's like to actually work like the 85% of us. :lol:
  25. RedFlash
    Nobody is welcoming Edmonds with "open arms", it's the simply inevitable that Hendry will sign Edmonds. 99.999999999999999999999 to inifnity% of the Cubs fans would prefer to keep Pie up and not sign Edmonds. But Hendry/Piniella has a man-crush on Edmonds....
