    If the Farns was still here, I dont think that would be a good idea. He would probably spear the crap out of Treebeard....Didn't a braves outfielder do that to a fan who ran on the field last year?

    I dont think hes done that bad of job really, but has made two relatively large mistakes: A) Sosa Trade: yah, i know Sammy sucks this year, but you could have gotten more than a MLB ultilityman and a minor league utility man while paying most of Sammy's salary. B) Closer. I dont think not having a name left fielder was that big an issue. If you look at the best champions that have always had some question marks that are usually fielded by an unknown who has a career year or some young upstart who turns out to be good....we found one, but the manager wouldnt play him.

    Dont speak foul of the almighty Rich Hill - NSSB correspondent!

    Im sorry that you ordered those tickets so far in advance. With a uber-popular team like the Cubs, you have to, but it sucks going to such a great place like Wrigley and knowing the game is meaningless.

    So its not ok for a white guy to diss caribbean players, but it is ok for Dusty, a black man, to diss white players. OK, whatever.
  7. chicubs
    Nah, I think the losing streak reaches 10 and Dusty gets canned.

    Go Corey! Anyone able to watch the game? I cant complain about his number s tonight, but I still wonder whether he has actually changed anything.

    The sad thing is that no matter bad this team plays for the rest of the year, I will still be incredibly pumped for next year and believe that we could win it all. Honestly, I thought this really could be the year.....But, now Im looking at two years from now where will hopefully have: A) Healthy Starters with Prior/Z/Wood dominating. If they pitch well, it doesnt really matter who our 4 and 5 starters are. B) Felix Pie will be ready in 2 years. C) Corey will be fixed and moved to left field (b/c Pie) and be a 30-30 guy. D) Cedeno will be our starting SS hitting .280 - .300. E) Dusty will be gone in favor of the Djaxx manager. F) If we still have Perez, Macias, and Holla, I actually wont be really that bummed because I think they are really solid players that are just being terribly misused by Dusty.

    Is it too much to ask for this team to play like they are major leaguers rather than daisy-picking 6 year-old little leaguers?

    I, for one, DO NOT want to see Girardi as captain. Nothing against the guy, i like him, but he is in all likelyhood another players' manager. This team does not need a players' manager. 2003, yes, that team was a good fit for players' manager with Alou, Sammy, etc, but not this years. If Pie plays well during spring training, hell be up. I am almost certain of that.

    The man is 25, hes not going to magically add 2-3 mph to his fastball. Hill isnt that great, hes a nice solid pitcher. His ceiling, imo, is a #4 starter.....Somehow I think hell eventually end up like someone such as Scott Downs. Probably a little bit better, but, meh. His value was absolutely enormous at the all-star break. He was rumored to be one of the key guys in a Dunn or Kearns deal but Jimbo held off cause he liked Hill to much. Obviously, a little to early to tell, but that will probably be a very large mistake in hindsight.

    Dont you ever say such a thing about the lord almighty Rich Hill!
  15. chicubs
    looks like Kerry might be used in some long relief.
  16. chicubs
    That's nice, but the offense has to chime in sometime. ;) you were saying?
  17. chicubs
    i hope hill can go at least 7 today..then wood in the 8th and dempster in the 9th and walah cubs win.

    Remember when people here were begging for cubs management to sign beltran? They said he was "special"...haha!
  19. chicubs
    I like the optimism, but lets be realistic. This team has practically given up and quit. 2 new question marks in the bullpen and a shortstop recovering from an injury are not going to fix everything. Plus, what makes you think the Astros are going to start losing? We miss out by 5-10 games.
  20. chicubs
    Just start Cedeno everday next year and keep Macias/Neifi on the bench. Its time to go to the future.
  21. chicubs
    He would be my choice. Thirded. Fourthed. Bring that little guy up!!! Yah, lets bring up a guy who hits 270 in AA...lol.
  22. chicubs
    Anyone else agree that Wagner is the most fearsome closer? ....Rivera is great and maybe better, but I dont think he is as scary. Left handed and 100 mph = wow!
  23. chicubs
    Prior may have to pinch hit in this game.
  24. chicubs
    Im feeling kind of uncomfortable right now :D
  25. chicubs
    I believe he hit the ball hard in all of his at bats. A nice catch or two by the opposing side, but, he apparently looked good and ready.
