  1. It's evil because he's Japanese isn't it.
  2. We hope Matt Szczur turns into a worse version of Juan Pierre?
  3. I still suck at reading Twitter copy-pastes Callis is responding to a tweet by saying the reason we're not hearing about Cubs signings is that they're so much over slot. I know, it just took me a few extra seconds. Thanks though. I know how you struggle sometimes.

  5. Was this before or after LaRussa said they were throwing at him and Braun should've ducked?
  6. As if this year wasn't bad enough. I'd be stunned if they plan on going into next year with a Soriano/Jackson/Colvin OF, so it really shouldn't matter who they slot into RF, it'll be Jackson/Byrd/new acquisition's soon enough.
  7. Just a #3-4 pitcher IMO. Never should've traded Sam Fuld for him.
  8. The Vino will take care of that soon enough.
  9. You think other school's coaches wouldn't have access to these games without the Longhorn Network?
  10. Nobody in the AL Central has a pythagorean record above 500
  11. I could see both the Angels and Blue Jays giving him that type of contract potentially. Both have tons of money to spend and nothing set in stone at first base (Trumbo for Anaheim and Lind for Toronto). I think the Angels will put that money towards giving Vernon Wells a raise.
  12. I think the hometown discount left town with their insulting offer last offseason.
  13. Well that's not a good thing to say.
  14. Well then somebody needs to show him the next year's episode where he gets all his money back. STOP SAFARING AND GETYOURSELF SOME DVDS MR RICKETTS
  15. STAT 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005 16.5 % of baserunners driven in 18.2 17.3 19.7 18.9 20.0 18.4 .342 runs per baserunner 0.353 0.345 0.381 0.364 0.370 0.365 Funny to see that the team was at its clutchiest during that awful '06 season.
  16. What is the point of this? It was an idle thought. Sadly, it wasn't a shining moment. It was more of a mutter, or an under the breath whispering. I fear I have let myself down today. Today I will make it a point to achieve for higher standards. I will reach for the top. I will climb tall buildings. I will put up the toilet seat. Today I will strive to find this point. Aren't you supposed to put down the toilet seat? NOT OFF TO A GREAT START WITH THESE STANDARDS
  17. My first guess would be changes in measurement/classification. Beat me to it. A huge jump like that league-wide, and sustained over 2 seasons couldn't be an adjustment to approach.
  18. I have to imagine the Cubs 5th starters have been sub-replacement level.
  19. Someone who's cleared, or is claimed by the opposing team. Yep
  20. Let's also ignore the drastic difference between this year's run environment versus the run environment throughout Pujols's career.
  21. I'm guessing somebody found a flaw. ERA around 5.70, K/BB around 1.2 with the Cubs peaking at A ball. Spends a year in the indy league, comes back with the Padres dominates high A, goes to AA, winds up with a K/BB of 5, and an ERA under 1.
  22. And if the Cubs did "chew up and spit out" these guys, what exactly is it going to do to Gillick? He won't be able to find another job at the age of 78? They'll take away his HOF plaque?
  23. Sexy, but there's no way Fielder should bat behind Aramis. I like this lineup, too... vs righties: Jackson Castro Pujols Aramis Soto Colvin Byrd Flaherty vs Lefties: Castro Baker Pujols Aramis Soriano Soto Byrd Jackson / Colvin / RH 5th OF Soriano 6th? That outfield has the potential to worse than 05's dismal unit. Our infield would have to carry the team, but midseason pickups would be necessary to get us anywhere. Let's just focus on Fielder/Wilson and worry about serious contention after that. We'd have one of the best infields in baseball with that scenario.
