    That's what I was gonna say. The writer is describing Carlos Zambrano to a tee. Young powerful pitcher who adds life to the clubhouse... I think I'd do Zambrano for Abreu straight up.

    I heard the new Reds manager wanted to make him a bench coach. I don't know if it actually happened though.

    Naw, I just agreed with you that Vance might salvage the trip by doing so. Good call with Cooperstown - the one Cub trip guaranteed not to suck. this just in ryno's going in as a phillie

    My friend in Hotlanta said that they were saying on Turner South that it was a minor shoulder dislocation. Take it for what it's worth, I don't think he'd lie about that. But I have nothing else to back it up.

    Where do i sign? ACtually, the more I think about that the two arms are probably Hill and Nolasco. Still like the deal? For Dunn, yes.

    That quote bothers me more than any Dusty quote I've seen yet. Perhaps I'm reading too much into it, but I seem to gather that Dusty is just too stubborn, too proud, to change his ways even though all the evidence points to the contrary. It's as if he KNOWS Hairston should lead off full-time now, but he's just neglecting to do it, for whatever stubborn reason he has. "I said what I was going to do and that's what I'm doing." Sounds like what a 5 year old would say when he wants to do something HIS way. So no matter what happens, Dusty's going to do what Dusty wants to do. That will, again, be the downfall of this year's Cubs.

    This team needs to change 1 thing really. Philosophy. But that won't happen. Ever.

    Someone should edit a question mark into the title of this thread.

    I hope Lee doesn't have a cold July like I fear he's gonna have...

    Rocket, you are today's guess the lineup winner! For your achievement, you get: http://www.dailyvault.com/wham_make.jpg yay i finally win an nsbb-related contest

    Plus, is anyone else besides me skeptical of someone who at age 31 out of nowhere puts up abnormal numbers? I think Dellucci is a prime candidate for a 2nd half collapse. And thank Kent you put in that 2nd sentence...because I was trying to figure out what "Dellucci <> Dunn" meant.

    We have to if we're gonna meet Zambrano's goal of 120 wins.

    Lawton has a .271/.377/.825 line this year. How would that not be an upgrade? He's not Adam Dunn, but that .377 OBP would sure be nice. I guess I had a misperception about his stats both this year and career. He would be nice to have, but the way Hollandsworth is going, it'd be nicer to find a SS with those same numbers. Finding an Available SS with decent numbers is a much trickier proposition. ronnie cedeno?

    The more games we lose the more I fear Hendry will be willing to give up + prospects for Preston.
  19. rocket
    If Adam Dunn becomes a Cardinals that's going to be a very dark moment in my life. I'll be so confused and conflicted...

    My guess: Perez Walker Lee Burnitz Ramirez Holla Patterson Blanco Maddux

    I did some quick back-of-the-envelope analysis, and here's what I have. According to my figures, in a fair exchange which sent Dusty away, we would receive a bag of baseballs and some eye black in return. That is his exact value. wtf is hendry waiting for then
  22. rocket
    i'm pretty sure none of us would punch roy oswalt in the mouth if ever given the opportunity
  23. rocket
    And not to take Lee's name in vain, but he's been pretty much worthless the past 2 games. Hairston can get on base all he wants, but if Walker and Lee aren't doing anything with him on base, then who cares?
  24. rocket
    That's my point, kind of. Burnitz, Sosa, it doesn't matter. We suck either way.
  25. rocket
    thank god we have burnitz instead of sosa, otherwise we'd be like 39-42 instead of 40-41
