ESPN did their little 10 years draft, drafting a player based on how they will do over the next 10 years. They had 30 experts and 30 fans pick their top 30. Castro went 9th for the experts and didn't get picked by the fans. It was hilarious.

Just saw the Barney Walk Off! It was awesome! You know how they say act like you've been there before, well Barney hasn't and probably won't again and he acted like it. Made it a sweet sight to see! :yahoo:

The starting pitcher on the games we ended the losing streaks: Wood

We're on Fi-Ya!

How many times do you see it, man makes amazing play to keep the lead then gets and key rbi insurance run but gets thrown out at 2nd?

+1 :good:

Shawn Camp, B****es! :yahoo:

Did the pitching change really happen in the middle of Hill's AB or did gameday mess up?

Barney is an XBH machine!

Starting to think we are unstoppable.

My Wedding is in 2 months! What does that have to do with getting yourself a girlfriend? Waiting until after the wedding?

My Wedding is in 2 months!

Edit: I will say it was somewhat interesting data to read although I don't know what conclusions you can draw for it. I went through the play by plays of the games. I hurt my foot this past week and had some bed rest. I know there is much that can be drawn from it because there is a lot of variables. Like one homer can give credit to the whole group or the 3 guy can get on and the 4, 5, and 6 hitter could be the guys doing the work. Also the 4, 5, 6 guys could leave runners straded after the first 3 set the table properly. But like someone said earlier Barney over Campana? I was so surprised. I thought DeJesus-Campana-Castro was doing way better than it showed. It's crazy that DeJesus-Campana-Castro did so well especially when LaHair was batting 5th or 6th a little bit during Barney's run at the 2, while Campana has LaHair at the 4 spot. LaHair being pitched artound and Soriano and Stewart failing could be one answer. It took some time to put together so i didn't get detailed. I will say i was surprised by how many trios only came up once. It was crazy, but it makes sense since we haven't had a consistent set of 9 for our lineup.

So the other day the Cubs were losing to the White Sox and I saw our line-up that was due to bat in an inning and thought that trio isn't producing a run. So I decided to look up what group does score most often. I will note that I realize this is flawed because sometimes it's the 4,5,6 hitter who determine who scores or that one homer will give the who group credit. Oh Well. Here are my results: These trios got 1 chance so far this year and did not produce a run: Stewart-Baker-Byrd, Baker-Byrd-Soto, DeWitt-DeJesus-Barney, Johnson-Stewart-Baker, Byrd-Barney-Garza, Mather-Castro-Soriano, Barney-LaHair-Johnson, Soriano-Baker-Soto, Byrd-Clevenger-Samardzija, Byrd-Barney-DeJesus, Stewart-Castro-DeWitt, Garza-DeJesus-Barney, Byrd-Samardzija-DeJesus, Stewart-Baker-Soto, Soriano-Stewart-Baker, Stewart-LaHair-Clevenger, Castro-Mather-Stewart, LaHair-Clevenger-Johnson, Soto-Byrd-Dempster, LaHair-Soto-Clevenger, Byrd-Dewitt-Dejesus, Mather-DeJesus-Barney, Soto-Byrd-Maholm, Mather-Soto-Byrd, Castro-Baker-Stewart, Johnson-Castillo-Bowden, Stweart-Mather-Soto, LaHair-Byrd-Dempster, Soriano-Baker-Stewart- Byrd-Garza-Johnson, Mather-johnson-Barney, DeWitt-Soriano-Baker, Stewart-Clevenger-DeWitt, Matherr-Maholm-DeJesus, Johnson-Mather-Campana, Wells-DeJesus-Campana, Wells-DeJesus-Barney, Hill-Wells-DeJesus, Mather-Garza-DeJesus, Castro-Soriano-Baker, Soto-Johnson-Mather, Mather-Campana-DeJesus, Barney-Soto-DeWitt, Soriano-Stewart-Clevenger, Volstad-DeJesus-Campana, Clevenger-Barney-Dewitt, Soto-Maholm-DeJesus, Stewart-Johnson-Castillo, Garza-Campana-Barney, Casrto-LaHair-Baker, Mather-Castillo-Barney, Mather-Castillo-DeJesus, DeWitt-Soto-Volstad, Stewart-DeWitt-Soto, Soto-Barney-DeJesus, Barney-Soto-Johnson, Stewart-Johnson-Soto, Johnson-soto-Mather, Barney-Soto-Volstad, Soto-Campana-DeJesus, DeWitt-DeJesus-Mather, Stewart-Johnson-Barney, Soto-Cardenas-Johnson, Barney-Coleman-DeJesus, Soto-Cardenas-Barney, Johnson-Baker-Castro, Garza-Johnson-Baker, Soriano-Mather-Castillo, Barney-Garza-Johnson, Soriano-Castillo-Campana, Johnson-DeJesus-Castro, Stewart-Soto-Barneym Soto-Barney-Samardzija, Soto-Barney-Dempster, Barney-Baker-DeJesus, Barney-Cardenas-DeJesus, Stewart-Lalli-Barney, Mather-Hill-Dempster, Mather-Hill-Cardenas, Campana-Johnson-Barney, Barney-Hill-Mather, Garza-DeJesus-Campana, Castro-lalli-Mather, Lalli-Wood-DeJesus, Wood-DeJesus-Johnson, Castro-Soriano-Mather, Barney-Lalli-LaHair, Johnson-Castro-Soriano, Mather-Cardenas-Barney, Campana-DeJesus-Johnson, Hill-LaHair-DeJesus, K.Wood-Castillo-Barney That's 78 different combos that only got one chance and didn't get a run!

Watching Koyie Hill think he hit a HR was worth the 1%.
