    People keep saying "you know he's going to get hot". I'm really not so sure about that.
  2. Tryptamine
    I imagine he goes one more. Lou hates our pen. We'll find out if he hits for himself this inning. Looks like you were right. Harden makes the first out of the 7th.
  3. Tryptamine
    I have to assume that's it for Harden. Overall, it was one of his best starts of the year.
  4. Tryptamine
    Good god, soft hit single after soft hit single.
  5. Tryptamine
    Very good earlier, but his stuff has gotten less and less impressive the last couple innings.
  6. Tryptamine
    It's going to be really sad if Soriano makes the ASG.
  7. Tryptamine
    Harden is starting to miss his spots.
  8. Tryptamine
    They suckered me in after the Cleveland series; I'm not getting tricked again during this Pittsburgh series.
  9. Tryptamine
    Theriot does what Soriano is unable to do. GJ Riot.
  10. Tryptamine
    Wow, 96mph on one of those fastballs. It feels like it's been a while since he's been touching that with any kind of consistency.
  11. Tryptamine
    Harden is dealing right now.
  12. Tryptamine
    Seriously? When did Laroche become a gold glover?
  13. Tryptamine
    Hahaha, Jake Fox is so slow. Pretty good slide though.
  14. Tryptamine
    Yep. I thought that big curve was right in the middle, but it must not have been because it didn't get called. It's almost impossible to judge a pitch right now.
  15. Tryptamine
    2 on and no out, I'm sure this is just another soul crushing tease.
  16. Tryptamine
    Much like DLee had the grounder to SS last year, Soriano has the mile high shallow fly ball to left center this year.
  17. Tryptamine
    Beliveau to take Carpenter's spot?
  18. Tryptamine
    So you don't think there's been any kind of turnaround in the last 3 drafts? I'd have to believe he doesn't follow the minors if he doesn't think the last couple of drafts have been solid. The farm is starting to rebound really nicely. I could see 4 maybe even 5 guys (Vitters, Jay Jackson, Castro, Shark, Cashner) sneak into the top 100 if things work out.
  19. Tryptamine
    That is absurd. They could have put a pitching machine out there and had better results.
  20. Tryptamine
    LOL, WTF? http://www.baseball-reference.com/pl/player_search.cgi?search=2003+cubs http://www.baseball-reference.com/player_search.cgi?sourceid=Mozilla-search&search=2007+cubs You done embarrassing yourself yet? Either I'm confused or you just owned yourself really really bad.
  21. Tryptamine
    Where did you hear this? I'd like to check it out.
  22. Tryptamine
    Hmm, why didn't I think of that? ](*,) I ask it all seriousness. It's not like crappy Cubs teams are a surprise to anyone who is a Cubs fan and over the age of, say, 15. Yes, this team obviously had huge expectations and the Cubs being bad is never going to not "hurt," but the repeated bemoaning that being a fan of this team is so horrible just seems pretty hollow when people could easily just stop being an active fan if they wanted to. It honesly seems like some prefer being able to complain about the team and players doing poorly and wallowing in self-pity. It's so much harder to quit being a fan than you make it sound. There have been times when I've been absolutely disgusted by this team and I've made it a week or even two, but the same thing inevitably happens. I'll be flipping channels and stumble on the game; the addiction begins all over again. I just wish I could stop following them so closely that their level of play affects my mood.
  23. Tryptamine
    I really have to believe that Lou is 3 or 4 losses in a row away from being unemployed either by his own hand or Hendry's.
  24. Tryptamine
    You really have faith they won't pick a toolsy outfielder or college reliever though? Not really, but I do know that I enjoy watching minor league prospects much more than I enjoy watching this circus.
  25. Tryptamine
    Well on the bright side if they continue this type of dreadful performance they'll get a pretty decent draft pick next year.
