    How am I not surprised that the leadoff hitter got on after that?
  2. UMFan83
    I'm sorry, that may have been a nice throw, but how does Reed get thrown out by THAT much? That's the third time today that the ball has beaten a Cub to home plate...
  3. UMFan83
    WOW! That was a nasty throw
  4. UMFan83
    How will the Cubs mess this up? GIDP?
  5. UMFan83
    Worst 2 hit day in baseball history haha.
  6. UMFan83
    That was a PERFECT throw. That said, you suck at stealing bases Theriot, so STOP

    I'm not sure whether to applaud Soriano for heads up baserunning, or whether to criticize him for being a moron. I'm leaning towards the latter..

    Stupid Cardinals fan loser looks like he's settling in a bit.

    Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

    Another out on the basepaths by the 2008 Cubs...

    Dempster can't throw strikes. Is anyone surprised?
  12. UMFan83
    C'mon buckle down Demp.
  13. UMFan83
    He has a changeup and a slider, the latter he hasn't used much yet.
  14. UMFan83
    This guy looks really good. Tons of movement on his pitches.
  15. UMFan83
    I think Dempster is going to be a solid starter all year long, but occasionally he is going to be hit hard when his control isn't there, and that of course is his biggest issue.

    This is so bad. It shows how backward this organization is. This move would have: -Energized the fan base who had to sit through a dreadful season of watching the players basically give up on the team. -Energize the players, who were said to be salivating at the opportunity to work with D'Antoni -Given the Bulls a coach that could maximize the abilities (at least offensively) of the team, a team who has what is said to be "the perfect fit" for his system -Given notice to the league that the Bulls want to win now. Not in 5-10 years. Now -Given Paxson the leeway to not have to necessarily go for a roster overhaul. Instead, the players are pissed, the fans are pissed, and the roster needs a lot of work, if this team even thinks about contending the next couple of seasons. Great work JR.

    I don't know I remember us killing Dontrelle Willis the first couple times we faced him. We also killed Cole Hammels the first time we faced him. I am not sure if those two constitute "rookie sensations" but..

    The last time the Cub won a series vs. Arizona is 2003. That said, last year we won the opening game in both series (sans playoffs) and lost the last two.
  19. UMFan83
    Dammit. Oh well I'm not that upset. Plus its May
  20. UMFan83
    Because we own? Wow your return here might be short with more comments like that. Don't see anything wrong with it. We sucked bad today, wow. GG. Wouldn't be surprised if we got swept now. :( Most people, and I know I'm guilty of it as well, are sensitive of fans from other teams coming on here and bragging about how good their teams are.

    Wilkerson is 31, Mench is 30.

    I'd say your in the vast minority. I like it. Come on. The song REALLY is terrible. I like it because of what I associate with it and it's cool hearing the entire crowd sing it, but the song is incredibly cheesy and bad. That's exactly why its awesome.
  23. UMFan83
    I am going to be crazy to say this, but I still think of the Brewers as bigger threats than St. Louis. My best outcome would be the Cardinals to take 2 of 3. I didn't say cheering. This is the Cardinals, though, the same team we keep waiting to fall off and never does. They did last year. Yeah in late September.
  24. UMFan83
    I agree, and I've been meaning to look up that stat. I still however think they are a legit team, or at least were before Gallardo. All I know is that they have been building this team for 6-7 years in preparation to compete now. I wouldn't be surprised if they are very active in the trade market this summer. They still have prospects that they can trade.
  25. UMFan83
    Someone said he hit 89 on the gun. I guess thats good. Velocity is not everything but when you don't have control its a big problem. I don't think he'll be as good as last year ( i never thought he would), but I'd say you'd see more of this than what you saw his first few starts.
