Suprisingly Skip lead off the 8th win a single
-
what is the criteria for 'accepted losses'? is there somehow a cool way of losing i'm not aware of? No...just when the Cubs are going into the 9th down two, I tend to have time to rationalize that losing isn't the end of the world, and it happens to all teams, etc. But when they start a fake rally in the 9th, I can't help but get myself excited again. And then when we fail, it feels like a second loss. -
Seriously why the fake rallys two nights in a row. They managed to piss me off both nights when I could have easily accepted both losses.
-
what happened to reed? Hurt his back last night on that bunt play.
-
Cubs lose, Shields on the mound tomorrow, Reed, Edmonds and Z hurt. Anything else? Oh Lee sucks
-
Get our long reliever in! Oh wait our long reliver hasn't pitched in like 9 days and is no longer stretched out to go more than an inning or two because he was used as a LOOGY last month.
-
There's only a handful of pitchers that can do that. And even they have bad starts from time to time.
-
Every team gets swept during the year. The Rays are awesome at home, and are certainly good enough to sweep anyone. It sucks but hopefully we can pull out this one or the game tomorrow and take it back to Wrigley where we rule.

Bring in Marmol
-
Not at all. His numbers wouldn't tell you that....in fact his 7 ER game in LA was probably the best I've seen him throw...which wasn't that great.
-
Lee? He's batting .314/.432/.486 in his last 44 PAs coming into today. So he is. He still hasn't looked like the Lee I know. Where is the Lee hot streak we all know and love?
-
I don't know...one of Cedeno's K's last night looked pretty bad. Also pretty sure Soriano has looked bad quite a few times. But I will agree that swinging at the exact same pitch 3 times is pretty bad.
-
Wow Derrek. Should he go on the DL or something? I don't think he should be hitting 3rd.
-
I like that
-
dont count on it, look who we got coming up Do you seriously think DeRosa is a bad player? Yes. You don't know that much about baseball do you? I think he's kidding. He has to be right?
-
There you go Fuk
-
He's good at defense.
-
Ronny is just swinging at everything again isn't he?
-
That would have been nice last night Hoff
-
.239/.295/.398/.693 in his last 43 games.
-
So if Jim Hendry was like "I freaking want CC Sabathia, and every player not on our 25 man roster is available" we still won't be able to get CC in your guys opinions?
-
why would anyone want Beltre? if Colvin, Patterson, and Veal are packaged, it better be for somebody a helluva lot better than Adrian Beltre I think he's making the point that its probably the best we can do for those guys.

Rangers cut Ponson over clubhouse incident
UMFan83 replied to PrimeTime's topic in General Baseball Talk
Thank God, I was worried Jim Hendry would do something dumb -
Cedeno's last 25 games (62 PA) .190/.242/.207/.449 with just one XBH

Minor League Discussion & Boxes 6-18-2008
UMFan83 replied to Outshined_One's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
Could it be that they realized the minor league experiment wasn't working and have just decided to make him throw side sessions and simulated games until he works things out? He definitely seems like he's going the Ankiel route...except he sucks at hitting.
