  1. Most teams carry 3 catchers in September, unless they acquire another backup, somebody's getting rostered.
  2. They wouldn't trade him for Adrian Gonzalez, but they'll definitely trade him to us for Jay Jackson and Robby Chirinos.
  3. I wouldn't have done it, I like Lee and Fontenot more than most.
  4. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm
  5. And the shitty Astros bullpen we pounded right? They're terrible right?
  6. I lost all respect for my great-grandfather when I found out he drank before prohibition.
  7. I don't know what disgusts me more about UK, his respect for the buffoons from the south side or his respect for the buffoons from Lexington.
  8. Either Peavy is a free agent after next year or the White Sox are paying him 80M for 2011.
  9. Yeah something tells me Chuck Wasserstom isn't the one with the biggest input into Cubs decision making. That's a good thing.
  10. But like I said, he is seeing the names of the other cheaters being slowly released and probably saw the writing on the wall. There is no honor is admitting to something right before you're caught. You're assuming a lot here. Personally, I applaud Bronson's will to win.
  11. Somewhere between never and 0.
  12. I think he had better worry about making the playoffs first. Actually, the Cubs have needed another lefty in the bullpen since Cotts imploded. Gorzelanny and Marshall add a lot of depth to the starting rotation in case of injuries, poor performance, or team matchups. Also, don't forget the impact of this trade on the future. If Grabow doesn't meet expectations, he could net the Cubs 2 draft picks. Marshall and Gorzelanny could step right in as possible starters if Harden isn't resigned. Who's going to sign Grabow if they have to sacrifice 2 picks to get him? The signing team would only surrender 1 pick. If they're in the bottom half of the league it wouldn't be a 1st rounder, and if they're in the top half of the league it's possible they sign more than 1 type A possibly pushing Grabow's compensation back to a 2nd or 3rd rounder. It's possible.
  13. Alou murdered Tim's dog and he doesn't believe half the crazy [expletive] BBB just posted.
  14. What???? Umm... The Cubs play the Marlins next in Miami... yeah, but he's supposed to be reporting to Iowa I'm not sure of the exact rules, but if he's just going to Iowa til Tuesday when he'd start, wouldn't it make sense to have him go with the big league team and throw his side session in front of Rothschild rather than the AAA pitching coach? He travels with the team "on Iowa's roster" and gets activated on Tuesday.
  15. Hank Aaron. I like how this thing is being approached like there's only one steroid/PED-user in the HoF at this point. Oh [expletive], can I change my answer to that?
  16. I hope it was Jim Rice.
  17. And give him a pat on the back! I wouldn't mind that. If the players didn't want their names on a list of cheaters, then they shouldn't have cheated. It's that simple. Just like if you don't want to go to jail, don't commit crimes. Easy as pie. Leaking the names is a crime.
  18. What a cluster [expletive] this whole situation is. These leaks should be hunted down and prosecuted.
  19. It was absolutely sarcasm.
  20. Soriano. Fox or Hoffpauir would replace Soriano in left. Soriano in CF would probably be one of the most amusing things we've ever seen. Not around much in '07?
  21. It's not Cubs fans who keep bringing him up. Really?
