    I think he should be

    Lowe had a great sinker working last night. Mabry looked dumbfounded. That was not a good at bat. But aren't the Cub pinch hitters leading the league or close to it?
  3. Wilson A2000
    Is the radar gun off or is Z not throwing his usual. He has only been above 90 on a couple of 4 seamers?
  4. Wilson A2000
    His sinker and change were wicked last night. It was really unfair. But he got away with pitching in LA. The ball doesn't carry there. Pujols would have had a couple homers if the wind wasn't blowing in a week or so ago. I think Maddux is pitching well, but he has pitched under good conditions.

    What about Juan Maracial taking the bat to the pitcher and about killed him. The White Sox/Tigers fight (forgot the date, but somewhat recent) was about the best of all time. Is there video of htat one?
  6. Wilson A2000
    I think he was going to charge the mound, but didn't want to chase the guy all over the field.

    What got Zuleta so ticked? Was there a history? The ball barely nipped him.
  8. Wilson A2000
    Has ESPN done their daily mock draft on the Bears yet?
  9. Wilson A2000
    What kind of year would Maddux need to have to get an offer from the Cubs again? 1 year, 5 million?
  10. Wilson A2000
    OK so he will have no more hits. THat ISN'T it inconceivable is it?
  11. Wilson A2000
    Still out 4-6 weeks. Jones is on pace to have two hits by then.

    You can't manage perfect. Gonzo's error was the biggest blow by far. Putting in Veres in Game 7 was an abomination, but not as big of a goof as Gonzo's error. I thought most of the responsibility hung on the players.
  13. Wilson A2000
    The Cubs finally got to Santos. He has a 2.50 ERA lifetime vs the Cubs. Nice game.
  14. Wilson A2000
    Well he induced a taylor made double play if it hadn't been for Gonzo. The pen was average. A tired Prior was better than the pen.
  15. Wilson A2000
    Grantd Wood throws too many pitches, but it doesn't hurt that he has the mechanics of a little leaguer also.
  16. Wilson A2000
    The Cubs did not lose to the Marlins because of Dusty's managing. The Bartman play, Gonzalez's error, and the lack of a pen were much bigger factors. Dusty is not a good in game manager which is part of the reason they haven't been back, but I won't put 2003 on him.

    The Cubs hadn't been to a World Series in a while. I betcha this GM would have done the same thing as Dusty in 2003. The problem is that Wood has bad mechanics and he hasn't been willing to change them. I am beginning to think Prior is a wuss because he hadn't known what pain was before he got to the big leagues. All major league pitchers fight through pain and Prior is going to have to do it if he wants to start 30-35 games regularly. He actually said that - that he understood why dusty did it and that he nearly went to the WS by doing it. Just making the point that they may be paying the price for it now. Well then you can't blame Dusty for overusing them in 2003.

    I am not sure if the article is online, but the Chicago Tribune has a huge special today on whether the ball is juiced.
  21. Wilson A2000
    Why is Bynum on this team? Did he have a good spring? I liked that big righty that hit well in ST.
  22. Wilson A2000
    Saturday's game was the first highlight I have ever heard Andy Mazur call. There haven't been many homers hit in the 7th. So someone won, actualyl 2 days in a row, the WGN homerun giveaway right?
  23. Wilson A2000
    Not in the Izzy household. :D Am I too young to get your joke?
  24. Wilson A2000
    I was at Applebee's and I went from yelling out loud with no one else in the restaurant to screaming when Barret homered. Great game. Instant classic?
  25. Wilson A2000
    I am so glad the Cusb won afte that totally crap call by the ump in the 7th. Didn't even ask for help. But Barret's ball three was cloe. ESPN showed it just out of the zone, but most pitchers get that call
