As the Tigers are about to find out. Watch him pull a Maddux on us not grounf out to the 2B every at bat Well yesterday wasn't a great start. 0-4, first 2 outs were made on the first pitch, in all he swung at every first pitch and his last AB he grounded into a double play. How long will that nonsense last with Leyland? Man don't the Tigers have a minor leaguer who knows how to work the count who could have come up instead? If the Tigers get a ring this year there is no way Neifi should get one. It's kind of like the PH/3B that was on the Cubs in the 03 season who got traded to the Marlins. Man what was his name? Lenny Harris? Yes Lenny Harris

It doesn't seem like the team is very fond of Benson. I'd say it's likely these guys split carries unless one of them gets red hot. Well the team thinks it can contend for a Super Bowl and they want to go with a proven winner. I am not saying that Benson can't do the job, but if you are on the defense you realize this could be your only chance for a Super Bowl. Freak injuries occur all the time and the Bears have been relatively healthy so far. Plus the Bears have a super easy schedule. This is the Bears best chance since 85 at the beginning of the season for another Super Bowl title.

I think Neifi also said, "When you have a second baseman with a .280 OBP it's tough to win"

Dusty isn't getting into brawls with his players ala what happened in Toronto tonight.

Berrian looks to be the #2 guy right now. From what I have heard, Bradley is not nearly 100% yet and can't make cuts and stop and go like he used to. I hope he doesn't rush back. Although he doesn't have great speed, I liked what I saw last year. I have also been hearing that people don't think Musin could be a #1 WR on most teams. He was probably the best WR in 04, and yes he dropped a ton of balls last year, but I expect some big plays and 10 TD's at least this year. A healthy Grossman or Griese will make Moose look much better.

STOP that

I guess the x-rays are negative, so what does that mean? http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/football/bears/chi-060805benson-update-story,1,1538740.story?coll=chi-sportsnew-hed

It took the Cubs 3 days to get Ronny a 2B mitt. What! Ronny began the minors as a 2B, and any infielder knows that if there is a righty at bat, the 2B covers and vice versa.
-
Nor does a game where he gets walked every time?
-
Well that was barely even a hit. Are the guys not supposed to bring a guy to the ground yet in trainign camp or did Cedric yell out in pain and told the guys not to tackle him? Was it just me or did Mike Brown not seem to be a big fan of Benson.

Whitey Herzog next Cubs manager? From Stl today.
Wilson A2000 replied to cubfan's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I thought the Trib just said today that Herzog doesn't want the job -
Sammy will call in and file a complaint
-
In the picture, that's Kerry playing infield for the Astros

Walker says Cubs play too many day games
Wilson A2000 replied to RynoRules's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Weird thing is that Walker hits much better in day games. He just shot himslef in the foot. Kind of like the Cubs winnign streak. How in the world were they able to win without Kerry Wood, Derek Lee, and most importantly Freddy Bynum? -
How Dempster deals with Heckling Cards Fans ....
Wilson A2000 replied to MikeG's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
His numbers aren't subpar. They are right on track compared to his career. -
If Dusty thought he would be back next year, would he have kept Dempster in?
-
Ozzie Guillen can be a turd at at times, but he wouldn tolerate Ramirez's antics. He would make ARam a better player or get him shipped out - but he would not tolerate it.
-
Absolutely seconded
-
Even though the Cubs are obviously out of the race, why not look for the right guys that you need next year right now if a trade comes along that can help the team?

dusty's reasons for limiting theriot's time
Wilson A2000 replied to abuck1220's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
If Dusty wants to get resigned wouldn't he be better off playing the young guys so that he sands a message that he is in this for the long-run and will do whatever is needed to win a WS. You aren't going to get closer to winning a WS by playing old, bad players. The Cubs gotta see what they have so they know who to get. -
Eyre said his number one goal is to win a WS in Chicago not to get work. It won't happen with Baker and Eyre should realize that.
-
Agreed, but I also think that deep down Eyre doesn't think a manager replacement is needed. And that is a problem.
-
Did anyone catch this on the SCORE? He said you can't blame Dusty. He said he doesnt want to be traded and cant without his approval. Same for Dempster. He wants to win a WS here. He said there is no way they can make the playoffs, but when asked about Dusty trying to win every game and not playing the rookies like he should (Murton) Eyre said he didnt understand the question even though it was repeated. When asked about the Jones shouting match, he didnt think Jones' defense was a big deal and said who cares about that since he is hitting over .300. I still like the guy though.
