Howry is nicely putting the game in a save situation so that he can prove that he can close games. -
It seems like the Northside 9 have put some runs on the board.
-
And Michael Barrett
-
Hopefully the Baltimore scouts had the chili and had to make a trip to the restroom right now.

I just don't think there's anything (outside of punishing the players for doing it), that will stop some guys from diving into 1B. Didn't you hear? It's faster to dive into first! One of our posters did a test of 10 people.
-
I'm not worried just yet. It's the guy's first plate appearances against an entirely new set of pitchers, and this is only the 4th game he's played in. He's not going to be tagging everything thrown his way immediately. I'm just saying, this is the same thing that beat writers were saying after watching him hit in BP. BP pitches are not the same as in game pitches.

Is anyone worried about Fukudome's inability to hit it out of the infield (save his lone hit, which was a bouncer down the line) so far in Spring? I heard multiple reports from AZ about observes commenting on Fukudomes lack of power in batting practice, and nothing has changed when the games started either. Bruce maybe you could shed some light.

Who is left at WR? Moss (not a chance), Walker (probably not a chance) and Hackett (will have to overpay for him)
-
He's going to pitch today, but Lieber is starting.
-
Me trying to be cool and draw attention to my 15,000th post by pretending I realized after the fact that I hit 15,000.

Any word on when Ramirez is going to be making his debut? Thanks as always for the lineups. Fake edit: 15,000! Lou said yesterday, and I think we all wrote it for today, that Ramirez may be able to go tomorrow. Shows what happens when I don't do my daily readings of the local papers.

vs. LH last season - .283/.353/.423/.776 vs. LH career - .287/.347/.456/.803 Decent I guess, but I'd rather Pie just play w/o a platoon.

SI.com pretty much confirms the report: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/baseball/mlb/specials/spring_training/2008/03/03/heyman.roberts/index.html

Are you in 8th grade?

OMG ROBERTS MIGHT BE A CUB!!!? WOW I AM GOING ONLINE TO ORDER MY JERSEY SHIRT NOW
-
Hey, thanks for giving Hart the ball 50 times a game and killing any chance he had of being a pro! Well we needed him to be ready so we could beat Ohio State! Oh...umm...well at least he finally won a bowl game!
-
To the best on my knowledge, it starts on Opening Day
-
Anyone want to post the link for the Temp NSBB site in advance. I want to talk to people if a Roberts trade goes down.
-
Why isn't anyone talking Javon Walker. This guy is a legit number 1 receiver when healthy. I realize the knee issues, and the amount of guaranteed money it would take to get him on board here, but the upside is definitely worth the risk IMO given our current WR situation.
-
That's not good.
-
I don't know how drainage systems work but it seems like 6 inches of snow melting in a day will produce a lot of water. In the season, the drainage system to will help drain a steady flow of water when it rains. Just my guess, I'm no expert. Kinda funny though.
-
C'mon Marshall, you need to show good stuff today to either increase your trade value or win a spot in the rotation. Either is ok with me.
-
You're going to cause poor Meph to commit suicide. Where did you hear that?
-
Marquis - "start me or trade me": Lou - "He can go"
UMFan83 replied to JGalt73's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Not that we really are losing much with Marquis, but wow our starting pitching sucks.
