    Dear god.....
  2. Tryptamine
    Come on, don't give up that momentum yet. They need to hold them to a field goal.
  3. Tryptamine
    Hester is god.
  4. Tryptamine
    Hester is lights out right now.
  5. Tryptamine
    Defense is stepping up.
  6. Tryptamine
    Hell yeah.
  7. Tryptamine
    Wow, huge break. Take advantage here.
  8. Tryptamine
    Well that is promising.
  9. Tryptamine
    That was a HUGE break.
  10. Tryptamine
    A complete non-factor.
  11. Tryptamine
    Would be nice if the Bears defense would show up against the mighty Mark Sanchez......
  12. Tryptamine
    Good drive to get back into it.

    What a throw off his back foot.

    Pretty much this. And I think you meant AL East. b/c whip is far from the end all stat by which to measure pitchers True. In and of itself WHIP isn't a good judge of a pitcher. However, what CUBZ99's point was is that Garza put up pretty respectable numbers last season, pitching 1/3 of his games against the very difficult Yankee and Red Sox lineups. If you take Randy Wells and his similar numbers against the NL Central and transferred them to the AL East, they would not be so respectable. And I agree. Garza was a similar pitcher to Wells, but he faced much stiffer competition, so his numbers are therefore more impressive. Even the stats that adjust for league/park like ERA+ don't support Garza being particularly special. In fact the only team he had an ERA in excess of 4 of was the Yankees. He did amazingly well against the Orioles, Red Sox and Blue Jays. The AL east is certainly better than the NL central, but the effect doesn't seem to be nearly as large as people are making it out to be.

    I wouldn't call Hak-Ju Lee an impact bat, but his all around game is enough to have a big impact. He could be a guy who hits 290-300 with a 350-360 OBP, steals an enormous amount bases and plays extremely strong defense at SS. Even after TJS he has a cannon for an arm and his range is huge. If the Cubs absolutely must keep Castro at SS then they could always move Lee to CF.

    I would still be in favor of Soto playing the Victor Martinez role. 4 games a week at 1B and 2 games a week behind the plate with either Castillo or Chirinos getting the rest of the starts. Soto has had lingering health issues and having him play 1B would extend his career by a couple years.

    Well that's just horrible that a time out was used there. No excuse for that.
  18. Tryptamine
    And on that note I'm going to bed.
  19. Tryptamine
    I think that would send Cutler into stage 2 pouting.

    ..........
  21. Tryptamine
    Single most ridiculous football game I've seen in quite a while.
  22. Tryptamine
    By the way, what's the NFL record?
  23. Tryptamine
    Nice, that brief replay they showed had me worried. Still really pretty close.
  24. Tryptamine
    oh god that's an incomplete pass, Giants are going to keep that one.
  25. Tryptamine
    Love this defense.
