  1. Hairston has a signed DLee jersey hanging up. That hotle costs $98 a night? A little pricey.
  2. Alex S. Gonzalez Why ever throw him a fastball?
  3. Who had the most hits in the 90's? HOF potential because of this one stat and his defense?
  4. That year was 2003. I hope it isn't the last.
  5. Someone said Giles was better. Uhhhhhh!
  6. New team=report to camp early. If Sosa signed with a team he wulda had to report in January. Just sitting in AZ all by himself running to the RF bleachers waving to empty bleachers.
  7. Note to self: never slide headfirst with a jacket on. I still love Z.
  8. Dusty will get Grisson in there even if Murton DOESN'T tank.
  9. Patterson had a .254 OBP and Z had a .300 average and OBP. I guess Z had to work a little more at camp on taking walks. :D
  10. If he dos that lefty-righty crap with Murton and Grissom, well I don't know what I will do. Hendry why did you give Dusty this guy? According to cubsfun they had to exhume Grissom. Ahhhhhhh!
  11. Z definately looks slimmer. I heard him say he wanted to lose 20 pounds and I am realy glad that he took the initiative. Watch him get hurt now though. But he has been the best Cub pitcher the last two years. Doesn't get recognition, but I am fine with him flying under the radar. I think he has a good of a shot as anyone to win the Cy Young in 06. Good hitter too. Didn't have have a better average or OBP than Paterson last year?
  12. Today, when asked if the Sox can field a team similar to the Sox, Dusty said no. Each team is different and they don't have the same personnel. If they were a model to replicate, don't you think every team would follow it according to Dusty. In esponse, the White Sox won through pitching, defense, and timely hitting. They were a solid team. The Cubs could have a strong pitching staff, have a much improved pen, and certainly can hit. At least as good as the Sox did last year hitting wise. Dusty needs to stress fundamentals at camp and all year long.
  13. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/powerranking?season=2006&week=1 Kind of pointless if you ask me this early in the season. Brewers at number 12 huh. Girardi has a rule where the guys can't grow facial hair? I guess he is trying to get on the bad side of the players sicne he is going to come to Chicago next season as manager now that he knows he can't win after the Marlins fire sale.
  14. He also had the good fortune of Bobby Jenks coming in and kicking tail out of the bullpen. Without Jenks, I'm not sure how well the White Sox would have done in the playoffs. Yeah but a lot of managers wouldn't have put Jenks in the closer role in the first place. He could have put Hermanson back in once he got healthy. When did Hermanson come back? I distinctly remember watching Hermanson blow a 9th inning against the Royals near the end of the season, right before I left the rec center. Hermanson didn't pitch at the end of the year at all. I am not sure if he even pitched during the playoffs. Ozzie got a contract extnesion during a plane ride near midseason. He came very cheaply. I don't even think it was 2 million a year. You really can't say he is rich in the sense that he tried to get a huge whopping contract.
  15. This is from the guy who says Prior is not an injury risk.
  16. He has no one ot blame but himself.
  17. goes off again in the SI interview. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2332682 I still would take him over Baker in a heartbeat.
  18. My favorite is definately the Rey Sanchez call. Stone was like, "Harry I think he just dropped the ball" and Harry said, "Well, what do you know, he did!"
  19. Frank Thoams was and still might be a great player, but he just looks flat out terrible in a hat. Not that it matters, but still.
  20. I didn't know the Cubs were playing meaningful games in 2000.
  21. No. I don't really know what is going on with Bonds. I was just trying to get some discussion going.
  22. Maybe he is smarter than you are giving him credit for and did this so that you will raise the exact question you mentioned.
  23. We all really know why he dropped out...tough steriod screenings.
  24. If Perez is going to play, I want Cedeno playing. I don't want Walker and Perez playing with Cedeno rotting on the bench. Perez played gold glove caliber defense last year. Throw Cedeno in at second. But the Cubs could use more left-handed pop.
