    We were discussing in the game thread, the 1992 Cubs were shut out 4 games in a row, and 5 out of 6 games. Except, in that 6th game, they scored 5 runs in a win, so even that stretch we scored 5 runs in 6 games, beating our current mark of 3 runs in 6 games.

    Did LBJ just come over and say something to Arenas in between FTs? That's odd... He missed both!?! Oh wait this isnt a Wiz/Cavs game thread?
  3. UMFan83
    52 innings, 3 runs
  4. UMFan83
    Wiz/Cavs is much more entertaining

    Another pointless Ramirez AB. Ramirez Defenders: When exactly is he supposed to snap out of it?

    The last two times I turned to the White Sox game, I turned it on right as a White Sox home run was entering the outfield stands. So in 30 seconds of watching the White Sox, I've watched them score more then then I have in 9 hours of watching the Cubs the last 3 games.....

    Has anyone mentioned how we are 6-1 all time at this park?

    Welcome to 2006 Carlos. The Cubs are currently 14-13, and we umm..really need you to stay for awhile.

    http://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/VCHN01992.htm April 25 - May 1, 1992. Cubs got shut out 5 out of 6 games, including 4 in a row.

    Woe-O-Meter: 3 runs in the last 48 innings played (average of 1 run every 16 innings played)

    WALKS ARE BAD ARAM! I'd much rather a hitter be agressive and ground out to second then take a walk
  12. UMFan83
    make margaritas and get really really drunk. Bingo

    Oh come on, the Cubs play legendary small ball. And small ball is the same as smart ball right? Right???
  14. UMFan83
    I love when teams lose, they are immediately cited for having a lack of heart.
  15. UMFan83
    Remember when Hendry refused to trade Hill at the deadline last year, when all the rumblings we heard were that Rich Hill was one of the hottest prospects in the game.
  16. UMFan83
    Wait so the only thing keeping us from 3 straight shutouts was maddux walking in a run with the bases loaded??? Wow :shock:
  17. UMFan83
    5-7, I believe. Yeah, 5-7 is correct. Does that include the game he was injured in? They came back and won after he got hurt. Lee was injured in game 14 on Wed 19 April....... since then..... Gm# Date Opponent Score Starter 15 Fri 04/21 @ St. Louis N 3- 9 Williams 16 Sat 04/22 @ St. Louis 1- 4 Rusch 17 Sun 04/23 @ St. Louis 7- 3 Maddux 18 Mon 04/24 Florida N 6- 3 Zambrano 19 Tue 04/25 Florida N 3- 1 Marshall 20 Wed 04/26 Florida 5- 7 Guzman 21 Fri 04/28 Milwaukee 6- 2 Maddux 22 Sat 04/29 Milwaukee 2-16 Rusch 23 Sun 04/30 Milwaukee 0- 9 Zambrano 24 Mon 05/01 Pittsburgh N 2- 1 Marshall 25 Tue 05/02 Pittsburgh 0- 8 Guzman 26 Wed 05/03 @ Arizona N 1- 5 Maddux So since then the Cubs have been outscored 68-36. Unless Lee can pitch, its not just his absense.

    All these reponses and not one mention of Moises pissing on his hands. I'm proud of you guys. If you mess with Moises, urine trouble!
  19. UMFan83
    Well it was obviously a huge mistake to sign Mabry. His bad speed is soooo slow, and he has no idea where the strike zone is anymore. Bad idea if he is your only power threat off the bench (and a weak one at that). Restovich was never supposed to be on this team. Hairston was supposed to platoon with Walker. He's a slight above average hitter, but I think is lacking because of the fact that he never plays. Blanco is a backup catcher and a good play caller. Pagan I really (and still do) have high hopes for, he seemed very competent when he was playing. As constructed the bench was only slightly below average. The key is that Neifi got worse (if thats even possible), there is NO power on the bench, and the bench looks a lot weaker because of the Lee injury.
  20. UMFan83
    Our offense is below average, but it isn't as bad as it is right now either. Trust me, we are just in a bad slump. I've seen worse. I remember a POST-Nomar Cubs series in 2004 when we scored just 2 runs (all in one inning) in a three game series against the Brewers. This feast or famine is not new to the Cubs.
  21. UMFan83
    Let's do this yesterday.
  22. UMFan83
    I don't get how it seems like the only power hitters from AA up are Lee and Ramirez. No power on the bench, little to no power in AAA and AA. Pretty bad organization for the most part.
  23. UMFan83
    Anyone think they will care anymore when that happens?
  24. UMFan83
    I hope AZ scores one more run so its an even 40-5 score in the last 5 games. That will also make the average defeat 8-1
  25. UMFan83
    According to Dusty, thats his first successful plate appearence in the last 16 ABs
