    Fred, do you have the P/PA numbers handy from 2008? I'm particularly curious about Fukudome, Soriano, Lee and Soto. I'm not sure where to find those numbers (other than asking you, of course).

    for some reason i'm thinking i heard that pat is a smoker and i'm thinking maybe it's a smoke break. i could be completely making that up.
  3. soapy
    one of the few times i'm not opposed to the "forfeit" lineup.

    i'm far more annoyed with the half-inning interviews. i was driving during her half-inning with Pat and Ron and it was agonizing to listen to (until Theriot hit a GS).

    haha...nice. i hadn't bothered to check that Wells is already on six days rest. i'm really curious to see how they handle this.
  6. soapy
    what about getting him up and starting him tomorrow and pushing everyone else back one day? just throwing ideas out. i'm not sure what's preferable. they may not want to throw the other starters off of their regular routines.

    I haven't seen anything concrete so I just went with the current scheduled starter. Just speculation that it'd be Ascanio or Wells. Wells obviously lines up better with Z's spot in the rotation. Yeah, I wasn't trying to question your reasoning for putting him there, just curious. I wonder if a decision will be made on Zambrano before Iowa's game. If the Cubs are still unsure I'd imagine they hold Wells back until they know what they're going to do.
  8. soapy
    isn't the speculation that Wells will be called up to take Z's place (currently scheduled for Friday)?

    This WCIU nonsense needs to stop. Ugh.
  10. soapy
    not exactly an inspired start
  11. soapy
    Uggla pops to Lee
  12. soapy
    Cantu single to LF, run scores
  13. soapy
    Hermida FO to LF

    since fred isn't here: -first batter bunt ground out to Fontenot -Maybin doubles to left

    i'll say re-aggrivates groin in the 2nd. ETA: listed "day-to-day" for a month

    i look forward to BB explaining away the offensive struggles with the old "It's a big advantage for the pitcher if they've never faced each other" routine. really though...win please.
  17. soapy
    i'd say Soriano to 2B, Miles to 3B
  18. soapy
    i was assuming Reed or Ramirez would PH but Fontenot may be the only person that can play 3B.
  19. soapy
    i think i may have broken Theriot's legs if he'd been caught there
  20. soapy
    Well I don't know who MB21 is, but I like him already.
  21. soapy
    WCIU? :x

    Soto obviously made a pretty huge leap in 2007 (in both AAA and the majors), but I don't think you can call two full seasons of fantastic production a fluke. It may not be reasonable to expect Soto to do what he did the last two years, but I'm not worried he's going to OPS .417 all season either.
  23. soapy
    Yeah, an AL team desperate for a DH (due to injuries or whatever) might have some interest. I'd guess his greatest worth would be with the Cubs as a PH while he's hot like this.
  24. soapy
    hahaha...we're already praying for a backdoor into the playoffs? 10-10. Went .500 for a month last year (12-12 in September) and somehow still managed 97 wins. I'm not saying they're surely a 95+ win team, but they don't need divine intervention to win the division. 90 win team at best?
  25. soapy
    You mean back to his career numbers? he hasn't been over 5 since 2003.
