  1. Yes...I think they should give a third or a half of a hold if you give up a run or two...same for saves.
  2. Is there anything worse than seeing a little blue circle pop up when the Cubs are pitching? "In play, run-scoring play"
  3. Come on, this micromanagement is getting ridiculous. Shoulda just let Restovich hit for himself instead of taking Restovich out for Restovich and wasting Restovich. "Being John Restovich" Coming to a theater near you.
  4. Is there anything sweeter than seeing a blue circle with a number pop up when the Cubs are batting? "In play, run-scoring play"
  5. Murton: Takes pitches, quiet guy, clutch as all get out, preforms at every level despite not being high on prospect lists...sound like a guy with a number 23 on his back (not MJ)? Damn I love Murton!
  6. Fast forward the same situation 5 innings. Why does one run later mean more than one run now? A run is a run; I'll take one in whatever inning I can get it in. Do you know that there's a better chance of a runner scoring from first with none out than it is for a runner to score from 2nd with 1 out? At the time of the bunt, the Cubs had 18 outs to score 1 run. In the 9th, which was 5 innings later....the Cubs would be down to their last chance to score in order to win it in 9 innings. I think the point to be made here is that its easier to score 2 or 3 runs with a man on 1st and no outs than it is to score 2 or 3 with one out and a man on second. That's what makes the sac bunt not so hot.
  7. Neifi wouldn't have let them walk him. He'd know what they're trying to do. LOL!
  8. Neifi missed a chance to get a BB today I guess.
  9. Odds Jones takes at the first pitch? I give it 4-1.
  10. Damn, you took my guess. I'm going to go out on a limb and say one of the three will happen: He gets a walk on his final AB of the season (most likely of the three) He somehow winds up with negative two walks (second most likely to happen) Niefi gets no walks during the season, but in the playoffs his 2 out, bases loaded walk sends the Cubs to the world series (slightly less likely than the negative two walks)
  11. According to the Royals fans on their MLB board, Sweeney might be on the DL before Lee is off it: One of the Sweened trade to Cubs threads And I agree with Hairston at 2nd and TWalk at 1st. Wow. Prior and a prospect for Sweeney!? Pie and Cedeno?!? Jesus. More delusional than the Cubs.com posters in Royal land...and probably for good reason. One of the few teams close to as frustrating to watch as the Cubs. I'm still laughing about both of those trade ideas.
  12. If you are more concern about Eyre being injuried than Lee...then I don't know what to say.
  13. This might have been mentioned before, but did anyone notice Furcal lightly colliding shins with Lee on a close play at first earlier in the series? Or was it someone else? Or am I making this up?
  14. That event really changed my life...for the worse. But it does make a REALLY good drunken story. I always work "refried bean consistency" into it. Vivid adjectives and details make the story. ...maybe I should have waited until I had 10,000 posts to mention this stuff.
  15. I could continue with a story about my mom and a night gown...but since my "joke" didn't go over too well, I'll just leave it to your imagination. Your loss.
  16. Fixed
  17. post removed by moderators.
  18. That's the point. Neifi is the worst player that has actually had enough at bats to qualify for this. Augie may be worse, but he is so bad that he isn't good enough to get the at bats. Oh...IS that the point? ...jesus...
  19. I don't think it's fair that Neifi gets to go for the record when Augie could CRUSH the record if he had enough AB's.
  20. Cubs losing 9-1 and my fantasy team today? 0-8. Lopez does nothing in the run parade and Pierre is hitless since I traded Wells for him. Gross.
  21. After reading that for the third time, I spit my soda all over my screen during a lab I'm in. When asked why I did that, I responded, "Dunn hit a HR off Rusch." I got the responce, "Then are you going to spit in my face when I tell you the sun will rise tomorrow?" He is a wise man.
