  1. Once again Barney shows that he's the most deceptively slow player in the league.
  2. I've got Konerko as well and now I'm terrified either Castro or LaHair will be joining him on my DL with Kemp/Howard etc.
  3. Did he just miss LaHair or did he do it on purpose?
  4. I can only think of 4 things: 1) Rizzo Brought up (I hope not) 2) Garza Extension (Yes, please) 3) Wood Retiring 4) Wrigley Restoration Project
  5. Jackson,Lake,Castro,Rizzo,LaHair. I don't hate the thought of those 5 in the same line up going forward.
  6. and thanks to Sori, no one in the press is going to remember this idiotic sac attempt.
  7. Not a problem in my eyes, easily my least favorite of the usual top 10.
  8. Toronto is in on Hamels+Victorino; sadly there is zero chance we can compete with any kind of decent offer from their system. Combine that with the fact that they have the type of money available that would let them extend Hamels and I'm not happy right now. http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/philadelphia-phillies-buyers-or-sellers-ruben-amaro-jr-cole-hamels-shane-victorino-051012
  9. I'm catching an unbelievable amount of [expletive] thanks to LaHair raking right now. It's completely futile to argue with these people either, as they have no idea what babip or hr/fb are and have no interest in learning.
  10. To be honest, I kind of like the thought of a possible Hamels/Garza/Demp/Shark rotation going forward. I'd like to have Demp back on a 2 year deal.
  11. Thank god for twitter, it has made journalist's lives so easy. There's no need to bother with that annoying stuff like verifying sources or fact checking.
  12. I can't even describe how thrilled I'd be if he was ok.
  13. Yeah, I think Thibodeau is getting unfairly ripped for this. It's not a clear decision to bench him there. How about up 20? Is that a clear decision? With 5:30 to go in the playoffs? No.
  14. When even Noah is acting like his puppy just died......
  15. Based on Thibs mood, this is looking really bad.......
  16. Rose needed as much playtime to get back in the flow as possible. He did absolutely nothing wrong.
  17. I hate to be negative, but this has acl written all over it. That jump stop move puts a ton of pressure on the knee. Combine that with where he was pointing at and....
  18. Rose's jumpers aren't even close; I'm officially worried.
  19. Has anyone else noticed how horrifically bad their offense has been? Through 17 games they have scored 36 runs and they're currently being shut out in game 18. Before today their team SLG was .300 to go along with a .561 OPS. This all puts them on pace for 343 runs. For comparison, the Mariners in 2010 scored 513 runs which was the lowest for any team this decade.
  20. It's the cold weather. The Cubs will absolutely hit more than 70 HRs. Cubs have hit 5HR, the Yankees have hit 28. Even the Pirates who have only scored 30 runs this year have 7. I'm not saying they wont, I'm saying I'm having doubts.
  21. Emerging as one of my least favorite players in the league. I don't even know why he pisses me off, but he does.
  22. So we're going to the World Series? I'll take it. I meant strictly from a power perspective. Though if Castro wanted to go crazy on the basepaths Vince Coleman style I'd be all for that.
  23. I'm starting to doubt 2 things. 1) The Cubs will have any player hit 20 or more HR and 2) They will hit 70 or more HR as a team. It's like we're looking at the 87 Cardinals minus Jack Clark.
  24. Our crap for a Rays super talent seems tough to see happening. Sarcasm?
