  1. Why? I think people, including myself are pointing out that we are no longer hot and playing above .500 baseball. during a completely arbitrary period selected solely to support your own opinion. give it a rest. Give what a rest? Defending my point? It's not like I'm selecting random dates. I'm selecting the last 13 games that the Cubs have played, a stretch that constitutes 8% of the season in order to say that the Cubs have not been hot over the past 13 games. But you're right, the next time I have an opinion, it will be better for me to select stats that completely refute my opinion. Thanks for the advice. What is their record in the last 14 games? What is their record in the last 15 games? What is their record in the last 16 games? 7-7 8-7 9-7 Although I don't see how those questions are relevant to my previous statistic. The Cubs were on the tail end of a hot streak, and since the first game against the DBacks, they have not played consistently good baseball. They were hot, and now they are playing mediocre. It's a very simple point that I am trying to make. At least Truffle understands...

Maybe it is just me, but selecting the last 13 games seems pretty random to me. Why not 15 or 20 or 10? Because that was selected to show when the Cubs stopped winning baseball games more then 50% of the time.

  5. So how does everyone feel about the rest of this series with Zambranos game being a loss? Now we have to rely on Ted Lilly and Jason Marquis to get us a series win. Doesn't look good at all.
  6. Does this stat indicate that the Cubs can't beat .500 teams? Cubs are 32-23 against teams below .500 and 25-28 against teams above .500 if we lose this game.
  7. Our relievers have been garbage in the 9th inning the last 2 games. Oh well, just gotta hope the Brewers follow suit and lose. The Mets have the best record in the NL for a reason.
  8. What sucks was that he was throwing as good as I've seen him before he went on the DL
  9. Like I said before, 1 HR in his last 29 games.
  10. They know all about Uncle Cliffy too.
  11. When does defensive indifference come into play? When the run that the runner taking second represents does not matter in the game. At least I'm pretty sure. So like if the home team is batting in the 9th with a tie score and runners on first and third, if that runner on first steals, its indifference.
  12. As frustrating as this game is, this is the type of game 2 first place teams should be playing.
  13. Not that I love Howry, but I like him in there more then Kerry Wood, who'd be pitching in his first game in over a year.
  14. When will Eyre (5.55) pass Howry (4.10) in ERA?
  15. Howry has nothing right now, I'd rather see Eyre in there right now than Howry.
  16. 20 pitch inning so far, and hes only faced 2 batters
  17. That's what I thought too Len says the fans thought it was Wood Our fans are so smart
  18. That's awesome, Vance you have the power of an entire message board behind you. You're a lock.
  19. What are Marmol's numbers after 1 IP in a game. It seems like he breaks down after the first inning.
  20. When will DLee (12) pass Ramirez (16) in Homers?
