Yeah I know, Jim Hendry should not be working on these things. If they are going to be doing stuff like this they should at least hire a PR/Marketing department. Oh wait they have one :)
-
Pick Manning if you want to goto the playoffs and lose in both games. Trust me, I've had that cancer for the last 2 years and its all fine and dandy until he plays 1 total quarter the last 2 weeks of the season.

Nothing regarding Baker and pitch counts will phase me after he let Prior throw over 120 pitches with a 12-3 lead in Game 2 of the 2003 NLCS

'06 Predictions Contest / HR Derby: Discussion & Updates
UMFan83 replied to Laura's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Thanks Chipper...3 HR tonight :) -
How is that possible when Dempster has blow what 6 saves? Did the Cubs get the lead in the top of the 9th at home 2 times that Demp blew it? I'm pretty sure we lost all 6 games he blew A blown save is not necessarily a loss, is it ? Hence why I said I was pretty sure we lost all 6 games he blew. So if he blows a save in the 9th and we lose, thats a L when leading after 8 is it not? Or have I had a really long day and my brain is jumbled?

You know why Zambrano is still pitching? Because Dusty is playing for next year....for himself. This quote says it all: Dusty doesn't want to be here, and won't unless JH throws money at him. So basically Dusty doesn't care if Zambrano throws 160 pitches to get the win, as long as it helps his W/L record to make him more appealing to other teams. Think about it...that is Dusty's PO

Z is such a warrior gutting it out fearlessly to keep us right in there in the Wild Card race. Oh wait, we are 19 games under .500 and he's gonna throw 120 pitches at least.. Baker doesn't care who he takes down on the way out of town.
-
that's not something that happens every day Well yeah, the Cubs do have offdays. But once every gameday and twice on Sundays.

Wow Pierre's arm is just unbelievably bad..... Reason # 430943 why we shouldnt resign Pierre but still will.
-
Ron will never retire because he is part of the Cubs marketing plan to make the Cubs this lovable fuzzy feeling team. Pat and Ron are pretty much a trademark like Wrigley Field, Cubbies, and Old Style. If you want real analysis (and a real team), follow someone else :(

Another Hendry Bomb-Keeping Baker has been his biggest yet
UMFan83 replied to WrigleyinEngland's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
No difference? How about having someone out there that know who Ryan Theriot is and where he comes from? Dusty knows hes gone and hes bitter and frankly annoying when talking to the media. He has no reason to help the Cubs in their future, his only concern is campaigning for a new job. Why keep a lame duck manager in there when you can give someone else a chance to help out the organization. -
Its amazing what the cream and the clear can do for ya.

Sox about the sweep the Tigers. Anyone else see it all crashing down for them?

link? I didn't see these comments. http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/cs-060812cubsbirte,1,5651277.story?coll=cs-home-headlines Actually suprised I didnt see them posted anywhere, they were quite amusing. "Judge me on my track record, not this year" Yup lets sign Bonds next year for $50 million a year because he has 725 freakin HRs! Who cares what he did last year
-
I'm almost positive Dusty is going to leave even if JH wanted him back after the season. It seems like for his pride, he doesn't want to get fired. Now that he is allowed to remain to the end of the year, he can now say he "left" the team and wasnt fired. Actually according to his comments to the trib last night, hes already saying that

And Larry Rothschild is still the pitching coach...why?

Anyone see the first inning of the Royals-Indians?
UMFan83 replied to Transmogrified Tiger's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
They are certainly putting things together, too bad its way too late to matter -
from this thread is what made me start this thread. Good riddance was for Prior going on the DL. The rest of the post was factually stating what the rotation will be the rest of the year. No opinion was given either way as to whether I was happy about this rotation or not. I think its pretty clear reading my past posts on this topic what my opinion is (let the freakin kids play!). Therefore, this entire post is redundant as it was posted on false grounds. Good day.

Prior to DL

Do you realize last year we would have had 8 threads up here enraged about Izturis batting second constantly (despite his .297 OBP as a Cub)....but we're so apathetic its not even a big deal. -

UMFan83 replied to Laura's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Very interesting. I can't believe I'm competing with Abreu and Chipper -
Take your pick: Rasheed Davis or Scott "Die Hard" McClain. Best preseason player ever See that was an Orton throw. Welcome back drinky
-
This is bad. Grossman looked terrible, Smith looks great. Someone said he looks like Orton....he looks worse. What the hell Grossman? I want to like you but your not giving me a reason to

Won't the bars be there when the Bars are over? They may even be showing the Bars at the bars. I say go Bars! My plan is to watch the first half here, and the second half at the bars.
