  1. I checked into the future with my digital cable thing. WGN is showing a Retiring Ryno show from 12:30-1, followed immediately by the game. So I guess that's some sort of news.
  2. i'm going for this too so hurry up with details plz
  3. I've read a few articles where baseball players said that the Wrigley clubhouse is just horrible.
  4. i'm pretty sure this belongs in transactions
  5. Yes. ESPN.com http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/stats/aggregate?statType=batting&group=8&seasonType=2&type=type3&sort=GIDPs&split=0&season=2005 Cubs are only 8th in the NL, believe it or not.
  6. You do realize that there are other teams who are looking to sign free agents this offseason, right?
  7. now THIS is the hard-hitting analysis and news i expect when i log on to this board
  8. They were in spring training and there's a good chance in those 11 at bats he was actually facing another minor league pitcher.
  9. I know! It's as if he was playing for the Cubs or something! it's also as if there's opinions on corey that haven't been expressed already 1000s of times! i'm dying to hear the many reasons why corey sucks.
  10. it's on the This Old Cub DVD.
  11. at last, a corey patterson thread
  12. Better starting pitching? I don't have any numbers, but I don't think the 2003 offense was any better than this year's offense. The 2003 team came in as underdogs. There was no pressure on them to win, so they played like there was no pressure. Then last year, some had them pegged as World Series champs. They collapsed under the pressure. And now with the raised expectations throughout the city, some of that pressure remains. Amazingly, only 3 people are still here from that 2003 team: Kerry Wood, Mark Prior, and Aramis Ramirez EDIT: 3 people from the PLAYOFF team. CPatt was out for most of that season. Thanks for making Carlos Zambrano cry.
  13. Better starting pitching? I don't have any numbers, but I don't think the 2003 offense was any better than this year's offense.
  14. No, please don't do this.
  15. no we need him in the gm's office so we can make fun mvp baseball trades like aramis for manny.
  16. All I'm saying is that judging from the Sandberg's yahoo.com articles, I don't want him managing this team.
  17. I was going to say, they both look exactly like Citizens Bank/Great American/insert new stadium here. While these are better than the Riverfront and the Three Rivers of the past, I won't deny, these new stadiums still lack charm and defining characteristics.
  18. RANDOM ADAM DUNN MAN LOVE POST! From yesterday's Dayton Daily News, here's Adam Dunn's thoughts on Wrigley and the Cubs. so wise. cubs better get more night games if da dunn wants to come over here. HERE'S HOW ADAM RANKS IN THE NATIONAL LEAGUE IN CERTAIN OFFENSIVE CATEGORIES! 1st in SECA! (by a huge margin!) 1st in ISOP! 1st in strikeouts! 4th in RC27! 3rd in walks! 3rd in extra-base hits! 2nd in P/PA! 5th in OPS! 6th in SLG! 11th in OBP! 63rd in BA! 3rd in HR! 4th in runs! 8th in RBI! all hail adam dunn
  19. Tradition, more or less.
  20. if the cubs are under .500 then i honestly don't care if they take the season series against the cards. it won't make me feel any better about this season if we dominate the cards this season, unless of course we end up making the playoffs.
  21. this story is even funnier if you imagine the question being asked is "why did you leave kerry wood in for 167 pitches"
  22. I never said Hill couldn't make it in the majors and be an effective pitcher. I do think it's ridiculous that Hendry most likely would not trade Hill for Dunn straight up, though.
  23. Should we really count on Dopirak to develop into a ML quality hitter?
  24. it's essentially a complaint about everything and i edited the title so everyone can be happy
