    GUS JOHNSON!

    I assumed Taber would start. This is going to be an interesting year for an IU hater like myself. I'd put the over/under at 2.5 for Big 10 wins.

    Bob Brenly named bullpen catcher.

    You guys weren't paying attention, Dallas just said that MLB was discussing the possibility of not letting Cuban own a team, he never said it was going to happen.

    RICH HILL IS HAVING CONTROL PROBLEMS????????????

    Really? Why do you say that? Is Jackson projected to tail off and not be as effective anymore? Reggie Brown is back and healthy, and Jackson already hasn't been anything special since week 2.

    I'd retire before re-signing with the Cubs if I was Matt Craig.

    The Cardinals had Adam Kennedy(and other assorted garbage) playing 2B last year. Kelly Johnson would be a massive upgrade.

    Surely we can pull this trade off, and then see if some team will take on Marquis for this year without us picking anything up. I don't care if we get a player in return who will never go above AA in his career. Just get his salary off the books. If we give up Shark and Marshall, I'm not too crazy about dumping Marquis for nothing. If Harden and Z or some other combination of two pitchers spend any time on the DL, we'll lose Gaudin from the pen, and be forced to dig for a Glendon Rusch type of pickup to plug the hole. Either that, or throw in Gooz and hope his arm stays attached, or pray for 2007 Hill to emerge from the depths of Lake Michigan. I'm all for going for Peavy, but it'll probably cost us depth. As much as I don't like Marquis, I wouldn't give away the insurance policy he serves as for nothing more than saving some money. It's not like that $7 mil we'll save by dumping him is going to help add depth if we really are also bucking to bring back Demp. That money could be used to partially pay for Wood, or a bat like Bradley or Ibanez. I could be wrong, but isn't Marquis due to get $10-10 1/2 mil this year? 9M I believe.

    i'm feeling pretty confident about va tech 23, maryland 13 other picks: psu 155, iowa 2 vandy 12, florida 7 baylor 55, texas 54 (missed extra point) So Texas wins? they don't win, but they don't get a loss either. by the way, i just found out that the va tech-maryland game was last night and the final was 23-13. Then that game shall be stricken from the record.

    Wow. If the Padres take that, Jim Hendry ought to be arrested for rape. Hell, I'd let them have Marshall and Atkins just out of pity. I'm pretty sure rchap misheard that and it was Marshall and Atkins.

    Haha. The Mets giving Dempster a big contract sounds like an absolute disaster. let's hope that happens. What's more likely to happen? The Mets... A) Give Ryan Dempster a ridiculous 5 year contract B) Give Francisco Rodriguez a ridiculous 5 year contract C) Give both players ridiculous 5 year contracts I choose C. Anything over what Hendry has already proposed to Demp is overpaying since Dempster can't hack it in pressure situations. I can't imagine him faring any better in NY with the way things have gone over there the last few seasons. He'd have to be nuts to sign with the Mets. I was with you right up until there. Last I recall he couldn't handle 9th inning closer pressure in 2007, You mean when he saved 28 of 31 opps? Yeah yeah...that's the year. The one in which he also lost 7 games and had an ERA of 4.73(and a whip of 1.33). You don't see the problem with replying with that?

    Did this post get copied from like page 3? Is it your belief that roughly every report that's come out on the trade is false?
  20. SouthSideRyan
    And all I'm saying is that (strictly from a competitive standpoint) is that it is. The Braves aren't anywhere close to the Cubs setup men injuries or not.
  21. SouthSideRyan
    I'm pretty sure most people across the league think he is. People love tools. They might also love him for his performance in AAA.
  22. SouthSideRyan
    Didn't I just say the window was 2-3 years? And come on... you're really counting on Harden long term? Really I'm terrified about the offense. Every key player other than Soto is old and many of them have shown signs of decline. So Peavy wants to go to Atlanta cause he thinks they'll be better in 2012.
  23. SouthSideRyan
    He's from Alabama or something like it.
  24. SouthSideRyan
    He's in Lou's doghouse because he hurt himself while drunk, and then compounded it by walking people when he came back. Him and Kosuke are chained to the house.

    Passively wrong is a wrong of omission.
