  1. And even if Theo/Jed were the types to be A.) impressed by W-L record and B.) swayed by how a player performs against them, THEY WEREN'T EMPLOYED BY THE CUBS
  2. Maholm is this year's Jeff Blauser. His career record is good at Wrigley Field is good because he faced the Cubs all those years not because he is good. By that logic, pretty much every hitter who faced the Cubs in Blausers era should have great numbers at Wrigley, and every pitcher who faced them in Maholms years with the Pirates should as well, and true or not, I'm too lazy to check the splits a good chunk of Maholms Pirates career was '07-'09 when the Cubs were good, or in the case of '08, great. My point was that just because some mediocre player has decent numbers against you, it doesn't mean that you ought to acquire that player. I guess that is a little too deep for some posters. But...he doesn't have decent numbers against us.
  3. I don't think anyone has argued that this is the preferred method, just that it can be done.
  4. Next time bring your sister, you hump
  5. There has to be some, but I honestly can't remember ever seeing him missing a game tie/game winner except for free throws He missed 2 in one game just last week.
  6. Maholm is this year's Jeff Blauser. His career record is good at Wrigley Field is good because he faced the Cubs all those years not because he is good. Nevermind that Maholm's been pretty terrible against the Cubs and that he's been league average over his career.
  7. He doesn't do PBP either. I think he meant as a person.
  8. Is that the consensus that it's playing like a pitchers park? Or just to LF? I heard someone predicting that they'll end up moving in the fences within two seasons. I heard Loria will demand the city build him a new park with closer fences or he's taking the team to Oklahoma City.
  9. How much longer does Geo get? Presumably more than a week.
  10. So Karros is just making stuff up now about Castro not working hard?
  11. The Braves were 10.5 games out of first place with 3 weeks to go. They must've been banking on a Phillies plane crash.
  12. LaRussa is either drunk or has dementia. He's probably incontinent too.
  13. Less LaRussa talking, more Larussa dying of shingles
  14. If "the season" meant 2018. ok, this might be what i had read, but a later response suggests we'll in fact get the six years of control if he's up all year (likely) http://www.bleachernation.com/2012/03/28/lukewarm-stove-wells-byrd-garza-lahair-soto-soriano-soler/comment-page-1/#comment-87151 That would only apply if he was removed from the 40 man roster.
  15. Seems like there's a bit of a flaw in your logic there Keith.
  16. DUI again? He didn't say they gave him a bonus.
  17. [insert all imaginable face palms] Did somebody say face? http://90on95.files.wordpress.com/2011/10/tony-larussa-shingles-eye.jpg?w=400&h=436
  18. when will people learn that Miami is just a terrible sportscity full of retired Yankee fans?Jeff Loria should be set ablaze in a public setting for children to dance around and laugh as his flesh curdles and melts into nothingness.
  19. Webers about to land his first recruit. Fwiw his high school coach said Groce was surprised he asked out. I'll be honest, I'd rather have the open scholarship than Orris anyway. I was pissed when he committed. I hope he wasn't run off though. ETA: I see now that Orris's AAU coach said Groce was shocked, so I guess all is well.
