  1. poor defense, whiner, clubhouse cancer, can't turn the double play... oh nevermind, that's why no one wanted todd walker :(
  2. Notice that there were plenty of stat inclined GMs out there that didn't talk with Bonds either. I can't blame Hendry or anyone for not wanting to bring the circus to town. maybe because plenty of stat inclined GMs either a) have an option for LF or b) don't have 16 million to spend
  3. Let's not get ahead of ourselves. For his career, he's hit .267/.318.457 against RHP, so, if he does revert to career norms, he's far from a great option off the bench. He's fine, and probably much better than most anybody they've had there in years, but he's not great (unless he repeats his career year #s against RHP). Well, great compared to the Macias's, Neifi's, and Mabry's of the world, which is what Cubs fans are used to.
  4. Ward had 35 at bats as a LF or RF last year opposed to 28 as a 1B. Since Ward can spell the outfielders and Lee, plus he's a great option off the bench (even assuming a regression to career norms), I like the signing.
  5. Since Z is very ripe for a devastating arm injury, should we consider letting him walk after next year? Is the money worth the risk?
  6. i want jd drew, but him in boston is going to start and end badly.
  7. more reason to move jacque to center.
  8. Giles EQA was still better. Is Jones's edge in VORP entirely related to him being a superior defender then?
  9. Only because human language cannot adequately describe the greatness of Kent. I guess Jeff Suppan must be great too; his career stats are basically just as average as Mercker's. suppan has a RING
  10. maybe the pirates can throw in jason bay to the cubs
  11. bengals are on FIRE bruno is my new fav poster
  12. smart move by krivsky. mercker will now teach the young pitchers in the minor leagues while his arm recovers, and the reds will have control of the cy young award for the next 20 years
  13. i know. he's done a lot of good as a cub.
  14. yes
  15. i'm pretty sure they're too busy having sex with gorgeous models in the caribbean
  16. krivsky should have gotten the idea when bowden said "really?!" and started laughing maniacally.
  17. Too late now, but I'd have been for him as the Cubs second baseman, especially at 2/8.
  18. except for the lettering on the back, the home uniform is amazing. it really is perfect
  19. and somehow that's a bargain. before the start of the offseason no way was he worth 3 years/18 mill
  20. yay bengals, hanging in there for a wildcard spot
  21. hooray for living less than an hour from the bengals stadium and not being able to watch the game hello bw3s
