  1. i really couldn't care less if the cubs win today
  2. maybe he won't get hurt, and maybe his wrist will give him nomar-type troubles through the length of his big contract
  3. Looked like Lee was hovering over the entire bag to me
  4. i can't wait
  5. MLB.tv is freaking out right now, I'm hearing Vin Scully echos
  6. robert horry's specialty is making 3 pointers, therefore i'd want him to shoot a 3 pointer with the game on the line. derek jeter's specialty is not getting hits in clutch situations. in fact, he's probably no better at it than 70% of the people on the list. your comparison doesn't work.
  7. bill simmons said it so must be true.
  8. Raisin, Dusty looks exactly like Levar Burton on your sig.
  9. Like I said, I don't think Dusty really blew it. I'd prefer Dempster be out there, but there's other ways. The complete lack of offense is why the Cubs lost.
  10. I could easily think of several dozen hitters I'd rather have up than Jeter. Care to name a few? I would also take Pujols also. excluding ortiz and pujols: derrek lee, a-rod, travis hafner, manny ramirez, carlos delgado, todd helton, jason giambi, jason bay, vladimir guerrero, mark teixeira, miguel cabrera, ken griffey jr, morgan ensberg, lance berkman, adam dunn, aramis ramirez, andruw jones, jim edmonds, chase utley, david wright, chad tracy, richie sexson, paul konerko, brian giles, brian roberts, michael young, pat burrell, gary sheffield, jeff kent, geoff jenkins, nick johnson, jhonny pheralta, troy glaus, david delluci, bobby abreu, matt holliday, miguel tejada, mike sweeney, cliff floyd, hideki matsui, randy winn, jason varitek, victor martinez, and jermaine dye.
  11. Everybody ripped him when he left for Cincinnati. If I remember correctly, he actually took less money to play in Cincinnati than what somebody else offered him. Griffey: "Oops"
  12. I wish Dempster was brought in the 9th, but it didn't really matter, there's no way the Cubs were gonna score again that game anyways.
  13. I personally thought that Dempster should have started the 9th. He's our best reliever, so he should have faced the top of the order in the 9th, that's when we needed our best reliever.
  14. jeter has the rings so he's worth every penny
  15. It was on mlb.tv, I'll get to work on recording it soon.
  16. When did he do that? I was watching the game and didn't even notice.
  17. Maybe we look at things differently. Maddux made 34 starts. Prior made 27 starts. Hill and Koronka made 7 starts combined. When you add those 7 starts, which probably wouldn't have occured if Prior was healthy, the total ERA is about 4.60. You're right, we do look at things differently.
  18. Maddux wasn't better than Prior in 2005.
  19. Reds trade Paul Konerko to the White Sox for 1 season of Mike Cameron.
  20. Good question. Didn't Zambrano had better success when Blanco was catching for him last year? Zambrano's best season (2004) happened when Barrett caught him almost exclusively.
  21. I don't really understand the quote.
