  1. Getting stabbed in the stomach is probably better than getting shot in the head but both suck and aren't desirable. I enjoyed the way you worded that. :D
  2. Vitters hits number 11 according to Len and Bob. I'm not so sure I want him traded for anything except for an extremely elite level player.
  3. Josh Vitters, the only thing that has kept me happy over the last two weeks of baseball.
  4. Perhaps Gathright was actually more valuable than Freel. I would have thought that was impossible a month ago.
  5. Perhaps not on that particular hit, but Theriot never seems to come close to balls hit up the middle. He either plays much closer to third than most or his range to his left is pretty awful.
  6. There's the wtp to rub salt into the wound. Now a nice fake rally and we'll call it a night.
  7. I would love to pick up Brenly. Lou has made decisions this year that have been completely devoid of any type of sanity. I genuinely believe he might be losing it mentally. The only other reason I can come up with is that Lou is throwing games and I really hope that's not true. Huh? Take it like hyperbole. I don't really believe it, but his decisions have been so bad it almost seems that way.

  9. haha Chris Young plates two; that's it for me. Watching this does nothing but make me miserable.
  10. What's the tally now, 3 runs in the last 50 innings?
  11. As well they should. Nobody should complain about it either. This team has it coming. I understand the fans have a right to boo, but booing a team that is already pressing incredibly is pretty ignorant. Its not like these guys arent wanting to get hits, score runs, and win games. Booing them does nothing, as Im sure they are pretty embarrassed with their play without the fans making it worse. Home is where you are supposed to be able to go during rough times, and receive praise. If you can't boo a team for a performance so bad that it's starting to approach historical levels, then when can you boo a team?
  12. I know it's still relatively early and injuries are partially to blame; however, I can't recall a World Series caliber team playing a stretch of baseball as bad as the one the Cubs are currently involved in.
  13. Why do I waste my time watching this? It would be really interesting to find out the last time a team gave up 8 or fewer runs in a series and still got swept.
  14. With Peavy pitching tomorrow they might not be scoring until Saturday.
  15. This is becoming so embarrassingly pathetic.
  16. Agreed, there is no doubt in my mind that the farm is on the way up. It's not all that exciting at AAA or even AA, but the lower levels have lots of guys who have potential.
  17. I'm really confused by this guy's numbers. Before today's outing he had more walks than K's ,10/9 in 30.2 IP, and he gets more fly outs than ground outs. Is there anything that points to his numbers being sustainable?
  18. Making a pitcher of Piniero's caliber look like a CY candidate is really frustrating.
  19. 57 pitches through 6; that is so far beyond pathetic.
  20. That's a good way to get his pitch count up and Lilly swings at the first pitch.
