  1. I hate to sound optimistic because I do not think this team has a chance, but him getting hot may be big for this year. A big 2-3 week stretch and the cubs may be right back in this. Realistically they only need to pick up 4-5 games by end of July to feel like they have a chance.
  2. It has been a couple of weeks since Sori homered right? I am sensing a 4-5 homer in 4-5 games really soon.
  3. Byrd is one of the better support players in this game. It is too bad we are relying on him right now. He is well worth his 5 mil a year .
  4. At this point I find it really hard to doubt tim wilken. Maybe it is just me.
  5. Well, moving Z to the rotation did not work, back to the bullpen Z.
  6. Even if they reverse it the reaction and the rush of completing a perfect game on the field is gone. The experience of throwing it is gone, but at least put it in the history books.
  7. I agree, let's move Lee now, if the Cubs stay afloat over next month or 2 with Nady then as the padre's fall off send vitters and some other top prospects for Adrian Gonzalez. If not we got younger at least.
  8. That is great news!
  9. Please inster Colvin into the lineup against this AAA pitcher. Sit down Byrd.
  10. Earl Weaver claims to have never had a sign for the hit and run, citing that the play makes both the baserunner and the hitter vulnerable, as the baserunner is susceptible to being caught stealing and the hitter is required to swing at any pitch thrown. I'd take Earl Weaver's mummified corpse as a manager before I'd allow Lou or Bob to manage a game from the dugout. Ok, I am not big on the hit and run either but the blame cannot be taken completely away from Lee for killing yet another rally this season.
  11. exactly, dumb call maybe but that was lee's fault. If that was a missed sign that's the 2nd on a hit and run in 2 days. Yea but Lee of all people should know to protect on 3-2 count. If he singles you are all calling it a great move. No. Hit and runs are always stupid regardless of the outcome. Just because they give Bob Brenly an inside-the-pants homerun doesn't mean they're a good idea. Yea.... i am still trying to remember where I said it was a good idea because Brenly gets an erection from them............
  12. Now that we have seen the "cold" version of Byrd, it would be nice if he would swing and strikes and take balls.
  13. James Russel should have Grabow's salary and John can go to Iowa.
  14. exactly, dumb call maybe but that was lee's fault. Its not Lees fault his manager is a [expletive] moron who sent the runners down 5 damn runs in the 1st freaking inning. I'm not arguing the bad manager decision, but how is it not Lee's fault that he took a fastball right down the middle of the plate? Thank you...

  17. Well, this team cannot score runs with the wind blowing in so this game is pretty much pointless now.
  18. The Cubs are 4-0 when I watch them at the local Irish pub. I guess i have to go right?
  19. You didn't by chance send Bradley some unmarked letters last year did you? Just wondering...
  20. Gorz is doing a great job of pitching his way into the pen tonight..
