    I hope the White Sox DO get someone good, because that would weaken the Phillies and hurt their Wild Card chances. :D No kidding. People need to put things in perspective. The Phillies are much more of a competitor for the Cubs than the CWS, despite the rivalry. Plus we play the Phillies next week.

    Man I know the Reds are in last place, but that doesn't mean we need to play a man short to compensate. I mean they did just take 3/4 from the Brewers! Edit: Whoops, not only was I not the first person to make that joke, but the mistake was already corrected.

    Who do you cheer for between the Braves/DBacks? I would say the DBacks, even though they lead the Wild Card. Despite their winning streak, I still do not think they are good enough to get it done and will have a drop off. The Braves, on the verge of dealing for Tex, are looking dangerous.

    Sounds like it has to be an old rumor from before Jacque's recent surge. Why else would they want him?

    #*$@*$@ We should have been in on that

    For three days? This reminds me, is the deadline in the middle of the afternoon again this year? I wish they'd go back to the midnight deadline. I know, like I said its crazy. But if the Cubs were in the works for a trade with Murton involved, its not too crazy to think that they might bring him up and start him for 3 games. But doubtful
  7. UMFan83
    2 ABs, but your point still stands.

    :? Eh, theres not a lot out there that I've really liked. Maybe Lofton, but I don't see a lot of rumors involving him. Ty Wigginton might be a decent move, but no one has really earned a demotion on the team, especially with Murton coming up. Crazy thought, but any chance that they are bringing up Murton in order to showcase him for a trade?

    http://blogs.chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sports_hardball/2007/07/murton-cherry-c.html It doesn't say who is going down but my guess would be Jake Fox and Billy Petrick.

    You did notice Bears, Lions and Vikings right ;) Enjoy your 6-10 season!

    Wow...Eckstein tried as hard as he could to scrap his way to an early Cardinals lead but he couldn't do it
  12. UMFan83
    Phew. Nice play!
  13. UMFan83
    Yeesh, should Lee have let that go foul and give Pujols another chance?
  14. UMFan83
    Jesus, that's about as bad as you can get :puke: And Cedeno STILL hit 8th in that lineup. Man, I've already forgotten how bad the Cubs were last year. When our rotation was Zambrano, Hill, Marmol, Mateo, Walrond

    DUNN DUNNDUNNDUNN

    The Reds do suck, but you can't be upset about taking 2/4 from the Brewers
  17. UMFan83
    I don't know what his story is, but he is 7-14 hitting this year.
  18. UMFan83
    Look who we went to visit when we traded for Matt Lawton in 2005. (The Phillies)
  19. UMFan83
    Man I hope anyone who had JJ Hardy got rid of him when his value was the highest.... Hitting .206 (31-150) since June 1st with 3 HR and 12 RBI.
  20. UMFan83
    Fun little thread. Think back to the Dusty days. If Dusty was our manager this year, how would things have been different this season? Here are a few ideas I came up with: ...Izturis would still be getting 4-5 starts a week at SS ...Theriot would either be in Iowa or the 25th man ...Fontenot would not have a Major league AB this season ...Barrett would likely still be our catcher ...Wade Miller would be getting another shot at the rotation right about now What else?
  21. UMFan83
    They usually do
  22. UMFan83
    SWEEETTT! If all the other teams win, this is how bunched the WC standings can look after tonight: SD --- ATL --- CHC 0.5 ARI 0.5 PHI 2.0 COL 3.5
  23. UMFan83
    7-2 Rockies. Please win tonight Cubs
  24. UMFan83
    4-2 Rockies and they are threatening for more with 2 on and 0 outs. Could be 0.5 back in the wild card at days end if we are lucky.
  25. UMFan83
    3-2 Rockies now!
