  1. 22-7 right?
  2. Hilarious. Wow, hyperbole much? I'd like to know what conceivable futures is being mortgaged by moving the Great Scott Moore (ex-Detroit flotsam, failed 1st round pick) and the Great Rocky Cherry (28 years old with a 4+ AAA ERA). There is no universe where either of these guys is a difference maker for the Cubs. None. Get a grip. I already apologized for my bad wording. I didn't mean we are giving away great prospects. I just meant that we were giving up assets for a marginal pitcher that we don't need.
  3. Yay, Lou describes our rotation as "modified 6 man" rotation and that Steve will pitch against some teams.
  4. The Cardinals did. Struggled against bad teams like the Cubs and the likes of Mateo, Marmol, Walrond, and then went into the playoffs and beat up on the Peavys and Verlanders of baseball.
  5. You know Wuertz is a one inning pitcher essential in to be long relief today.
  6. I think it's possible if Soriano Lee and Ramirez starting pounding the ball and the guys around pick it up. That's a huge IF, even though it shouldn't be. I agree, but they haven't been able to do that all year. Lee had a hot (and powerless) April, Soriano has had hot stretches all year, and Ramirez has been consistantly above average but not great season. None of them have been close to realizing their ability for even a short period of time this year, save Soriano once or twice.
  7. Man I really hope we can make a Cardinals like run in the playoffs if we make it....but I just don't see it happening.
  8. I can't wait until our offense goes on a hot streak, this is getting ridiculous. I don't feel good about any of our hitters coming up to bat.
  9. Is it just me or is every single "PBP" application failing today.
  10. Zambrano and Hill Zambrano is like Wandy except instead of extreme home/road splits, he suffers from extreme month to month splits.
  11. Hey we are only 11-16 since August 2nd!
  12. How do you figure? It was 4.02 coming into today and he gave up 4 ERs in 3.6 IP
  13. We sweep them in July and suddenly we can't beat them.
  14. Wow Marshall is imploding today. Maybe Hendry wasn't as big of an idiot as we thought.
  15. I honestly can't remember, I think it's been months Soriano against Cincinnati? Ward had that grand slam against St. Louis. That's the last multi-HR I remember.
  16. When is the last time we hit a 3 run homer?
  17. Im sick of Hendrys thinking where he thinks he can take these crappy players and then just becuse they come to the Cubs they will magically become superstars..He just did it again with Traschel It's like he thinks he works for the Cardinals
  18. Should have made that Trachsel trade in time for him to get to today's game...
  19. Hey who you got in the IL Mizzou game? Am I stupid for thinking U of I has a chance? Yes. Please, you guys aren't anything special. And you guys are a bad football team. For this year maybe. I'm not an Illini fan so I don't bite into the hype, but you can't overlook the talent that Zook is bringing in. This team will probably be better than Mizzou in the next 1-2 years.
  20. Wow UM, I dont like this move at all either, but mortgaging the future? Really? I'm sorry, I used too harsh of words. I just meant that they gave up decent assets for a marginal pitcher who we didn't need.
  21. Mortgaging the future for a questionable upgrade of a team thats 4 games over .500...thats Cub baseball
