  1. Well color me stupid. :( This [expletive] team has no hope.
  2. I really hate this team more than ever.
  3. I hope Ricketts likes all the empty seats in Wrigley this season. It will only get worse if it doesn't get better.
  4. Anyone think Joe Girardi would want the job if it became available? We all know he was interested in the past and in New York you get heat if you don't win the WS. The expectations would be low next year so why not bring in a winner? Quade isn't the guy I fear.
  5. I don't hate Quade but I'd be all for that. Hendry can't stand and if it means Quade goes also so be it. Hendry has overstayed his welcome for 2 years.
  6. I was lukewarm on the initial hiring of Quade, got to like him a little more after the Silva situation, but back to lukewarm with him now. I know this team has it's injury issues but this division isn't good by any means. I'll give Quade a pass this season and if they don't improve next year the experiment should end.
  7. Why can't Byrd hit cleanup? It's a shame Pena has been so terrible this season.
  8. The Rickett's kept Hendry this season. That alone tells me they know nothing. Not to mention they think Wrigley itself will bring fans. Nevermind the terrible product on the field. I wasn't a fan of them getting the Cubs and hate it more now.
  9. 175 AB and 1 HR. Drop him in the order already. His average has slipped to .280 also.
  10. I'm confused about what point you're making. So am I. :(
  11. Where has it gone? I know he struggled last season and was never the same after the injury, but he showed signs of life with his HR swing that last month. Now's he's hitting for average but has 1 HR in 166 AB's. I remember hearing the Scott Rolen comparison when ARam's injury happened, but it's starting to look like he has become that guy as well. I know he's hitting well but he's no cleanup guy anymore. When do the Cubs drop him in the order? I'd rather have Byrd hitting 4th right now I think.
  12. Well, he's earned the final T so now I'll say it right. Carlos Pena is a total butt. Still waiting on the bust part.
  13. He needs to come to bat wearing a mask. A thief in the night. Or a "I heart Jim Hendy" patch since that clown allowed it.
  14. This signing is starting to look like a total but. 99 AB's, 3 HR's, .212 AVERAGE
  15. He's off to a terrible start but you have to hope he's going to hit home runs. Jeff Baker will probably get some more time at 1st until Pena starts driving the ball. So far he's been terrible but there is too much money invested in him to beach him. As I said before if he's still in a slump at the end of the month, then you can seriously start the discussion to reduce his playing time a great deal.
  16. I didn't like his contract (10 million) when he signed and certainly don't now. He's off to a terrible start and needs to pick it up. Thankfully it's early and he has some time. If this continues through next month you really have to take a look at other options. He's a power hitter with no power right now and only 5 RBI's through 55 AB's.
  17. Barney is really impressing me. I know he won't keep this up all season but he's been all we could ask and more thus far.
  18. It's going to take another epic outing by the bullpen coupled by steady runs by the offense to win.....again. The starting rotation has been awful so far. Z was the lone bright spot and he's off today.
  19. Agree. Samardzija is the glaring flaw in a otherwise very good bullpen.
  20. Well crap. Cubs lose on a few bad pitches and sub-par hitting.
  21. This guy is throwing gas. Perfect pitcher for a HR.
  22. Friday baseball! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD2LRROpph0
