Is Ward out for the year? -
Isn't Canseco nearly bankrupt and he tried to get someone to pay him to hang out at his house while he was under house arrest? Would Harry drink Old Style? Cub fan, Bud man!
-
So how much do AAA players make? When a player gets called up to the big leagues, he gets a prorated portion of the major league minimum correct?
-
Well there you go assuming his arm doesn't fall off
-
In ST Piniella said that Wood would not make the pen if he couldn't pitch back to back games. Has he said whether he can do this or not? What does Lou think if he can't?

The Bears Training Camp and Preseason Thread
Wilson A2000 replied to cubweiser03's topic in Other Sports
I heard Rex threw Hester a screen and he made everyone miss. If he could be effective at that the Bears offense, which scored with the best of the NFL last year, would be that much better. Man they are a fast team with the additions of Olsen and Hester. Three people need to stay healthy: Mike Brown, Tait, and Benson. -
The Bears Training Camp and Preseason Thread
Wilson A2000 replied to cubweiser03's topic in Other Sports
What is Alex Brown's problem? He gout outplayed by a rookie who is better than his average season was. Get over it Alex and play better. -
I do too. It's the first game. I am pulling for him. He sounded very happy to be here and I am all for that.
-
Kendall cost 2 runs that game. Great pickup! He's Barrett with a new name.
-
Cedeno should be tried out b/c Fontenot has nose-dived and Theriot might need to be moved to 2B
-
I am a little worried about Fontenot's OBP. It is only 20 points above hsi average. Has he always been a free swinger?
-
Kinda like Wellmeyer a few years ago. Or "can't miss" Juan Cruz. Or a whole host of other possibilities that are "something" in the minors but never amount to anything in the majors. Minor leaguers are almost always gonna be an unknown. Hopefully this works in the Cubs favor. But it's not like Blevins was one of the Cubs top prospects for crying out loud. He's had a very good first half in A and AA ball. Juan Cruz had a decent ERA with the Cubs. To bad he never got run support. His stuff was good. 3.18 ERA out of the pen this year for AZ.
-
We don't know how much Oakland is paying us for Kendall (if any). But this is weird. The Cubs wouldn't pay to get rid of Jones, but they acquired a player who has a worse average and makes a good deal of money and weren't afraid of doing that? Does this mean Selig struck down that deal?
-
So you're regularly in the clubhouse then? I don't get it. I said players don't like Barrett for a number of reasons. A few people said I am just correlating the matter. I said this is not in my mind because Z and Barrett got in a fight. Z's dislike for Barrett caused the fight. This isn't hard.
-
RAVICH SAID IT AGAIN THAT MARSHALL IS GONE
-
Z punching Barrett=causation not correlation
-
Most of the players disliked Barrett. Barrett was a bad defensive catcher, couldn't hit well, and Z nearly killed him. The Cubs have been great since he left. It was a good move.
-
From the ESPN article. He may be a year or two late as Kendall's OBP is miserable this year, but at least Hendry acknowledged OBP. It's something, at least. He acknowledged OBP, but doesn't know that a high OBP is good. I guess it's one at a time for Jim!
-
Petrick called up, Bowen DFA'd.

So let's say they keep Hill. Henry is close to coming back even though he has had three cortisone shots. So a Blanco and Kendall rotation is in the mix soon? -
When I heard them say that, I was afraid they were thinking about moving Dempster to the rotation again. That wouldn't happen. You don't take a guy who has been a closer for three years coming off the DL and stick him into the rotation.
-
The ESPN ticker doesn't mention Marshall. They must have used the mlb.con article as a source. Do the Cubs even have another fifth starter?
-
Baseball Tonight just said Marshall was traded
-
He knows how, but that's as far as it goes with him this year
-
Petrick called up, Bowen DFA'd.
Wilson A2000 replied to otis89's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
So who's leaving for Petrick? -
I can't believe that Hendry said that the first catcher who hits a homer stays and the other will be traded
